Love Island’s Ella Thomas has exposed her boyfriend Tyrique Hyde’s “freaky” habit as the pair start settling down together.
The auburn beauty first rose to fame when she found love with the reality star on the ITV2 reality show this year. The day one couple have gone from strength to strength since they met on the show, but it’s fair to say their journey hasn’t been perfect.
Speaking exclusively to Daily Star following the launch of her PrettyLittleThing collection, the star has shared some of his quirks after living with him in the villa for two months. She told us: “He’s actually a tidy freak, he’s tidier than me, he’s going round being like, ‘Babe you need to pick up your socks’.

“You know like when I’m looking for an outfit, I’ll just be pulling everything out, trying it on and he’s like, ‘Babe, why are you so messy?’” It comes after the Scottish model revealed the pair are now looking to settle down in their own place together
She went on: “It’s been really nice like having each other since coming out, we both know what each other is going through and we can be there for each other. We’re just enjoying the normal parts like doing things together.
“We’re thinking about getting an apartment together but we’re just in the early stages right now, we’re just looking. You know, it takes time to find the right place.” the TV star went on to reveal to MailOnline that the pair had felt a bit of pressure for their relationship to move quickly after leaving the villa.
She told the publication: “We are looking to move in together, but I think we were kind of rushing at the beginning by thinking we need to move in. We’re just taking more of our time now and are just going to try and move in in the New Year.”
Since leaving the villa, the pair have attended star-studded events including Pride of Britain and the National Television Awards. Tyrique has recently appeared on former Gogglebox stars Joe and George Baggs’ podcast Not My Bagg as he confessed he and Ella had hit a bit of a “speedbump”.
He explained the Scottish star wants to move to London but Tyrique is keen to stay in his home county of Essex. He told the brothers how the pair are struggling to come to a compromise due to their clashing pride.
The hunk explained: “She wants it her way and I want it my way.” Discussing where they would move to, Ella confirmed that London makes the most sense at the moment. She argued: “I think it just makes sense because so much of my work is in London now. So I do want to move to London. He lived in Essex so it’s not that far away.”
