Liberty Poole burst onto the scene on last year’s series of Love Island and has been unstoppable ever since.
The former Nando’s waitress shot to fame after her appearance on the ITV2 reality dating series where she coupled up with fellow islander Jake Cornish.
After a rocky start, the pair had many ups and downs throughout their short time in the villa and decided to call things off just days before the series finale.
They also agreed to quit the show, so Liberty and Jake left together and went their separate ways.
The Birmingham-born beauty’s career has been on the up ever since she left the villa and followed her heart, which may have been the best decision she ever made.
Since her departure, she has partnered with Skinny Tan and Lola’s Lashes, and has become an ambassador for lingerie brand Boux Avenue and clothing brand In The Style.

She is also currently competing in this year’s series of ice-skating talent competition Dancing On Ice and is partnered with professional skater Joe Johnson.
Despite her huge success both on and off screen, Liberty has always remained close to her roots and cherished the relationship with her mother Jo.

The TV star followed in her mother’s footsteps and studied marketing at Birmingham University.
Jo’s Instagram bio reads: “Liberty Poole’s mum, number one Love Island fan, number one Dancing On Ice fan,” with an array of heart emojis.
She even dedicated her first Instagram post to her girl, Liberty.
The caption reads: “First post on Instagram to tell everyone that my beautiful, smart and hilarious daughter and best friend Liberty is on Love Island.”

The mother-daughter duo are clearly very close and Jo seems to support Liberty throughout thick and thin, including through her tumultuous love life.
After Jake and Liberty called things off, the star’s mum was ‘heartbroken’ for her.
After watching her 21-year-old daughter experience the break up on national television, Jo took to social media to share her concerns: “Seeing Lib so upset last night has broken my heart.”
“I’m feeling her pain. She’s about to get the biggest cuddle of her life! I’m on my way.”

Sticking to her promise, the doting mother flew out to Majorca to be with her daughter after the very public split. Jo told The Mirror: “It was an emotional journey and I’m grateful she’s with me.”
“I was really looking forward to meeting Jake but from what I’ve seen, Liberty totally made the right decision.”
Jo has also been supporting the starlet in her most recent endeavour, cheering her on from the sidelines as she glides around the ice for the ITV show.
The dynamic duo recently posed together behind the scenes, pouting and smiling for the camera and looking glamorous while doing so.
Jo wore a sequinned top with a white blazer and blue jeans, looking very classy as her brown hair fell over her shoulder.
Liberty donned a bright pink figure-skating dress for the picture, dripping in silver sequins, fringe and a plunging V-neckline, complete with long blonde ponytail and sheer tights.
Expressing her love for her mum, Liberty wrote in the caption: “If I end up aging like my mum, I’ll be happy. Thank you for being my number one supporter.”
Her partner Joe excitedly replied: “You were brilliant!! I can’t wait for dance week with you!”
