LOVE Island fans have become suspicious that Mitch had a girlfriend the whole time he was on the show as Hannah let slip that he is currently trying to get back with an ex.
‘Messy Mitch’ did not make any strong romantic connections while on the All Stars spin off, and has admitted that he has been trying to rekindle an old relationship since being axed from the programme.
When Maya Jama asked him about his love life he initially acted coy.
However, co-star Hannah Elizabeth ratted him out, even sharing that the ex in question is from Blackpool.
A panicked Mitch leaned over to place a finger over her lips, shushing the blonde beauty, but it was too late.
“A Blackpool ex?” Maya questioned. “What happened there?”
He responded: “It’s not the place. Let’s move on Maya.”
Another of Mitch’s friends was quick to dig him out, taking to social media to share speculation on who the ex girlfriend is.
Former islander Scott van-der-Sluis tweeted: “For anyone wondering Mitch’s Blackpool ex is called Katie and he hasn’t stopped talking about her.”
WINNERS – Tom Clare and Molly Smith
2nd place – Callum Jones and Jess Gale
3rd place – Sophie Piper and Joshua Ritchie
4th place – Georgia Steel and Toby Aromolaran
5th place – Georgia Harrison and Anton Danyluk
Viewers were left in fits of laughter by his admission, with one saying: “Blackpool? Don’t call him Messy Mitch for nothing!”
Another joked: “Mitch is definitely trying to get back with ANY / ALL of his exes, thought mentioning ‘her’ on telly would get the job done, and then Hannah fucked it up by pinpointing it to Blackpool.”
