LOVE Island star Ronnie Vint has revealed romance is STILL on the cards with ex Harriett Blackmore.
The footballer, who split from fellow co-star Harriett just weeks after leaving the villa, said the pair still have unfinished business.
Ronnie, 28, admitted he and Harriett are still in contact and would not rule out getting back together in the future.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Ronnie said: “After the first experience [on Love Island], I feel like I know what I want now for the next stage in my life.
“I’m just enjoying being on my own and working on myself. It’s a new year around the corner, see what happens.”
He told us at the Beauty Awards 2024: “I haven’t been on a date since Harriett. We ended at the time, but we still talk.
“I think a lot of the girl and I always said our journey might start again, who knows…”
When quizzed over whether he’d like to rekindle his relationship with Harriett one day, he said: “Yeah, definitely. I would never close it off.”
Despite their relationship being hit by ‘cheating’ rumours, Ronnie admitted they mutually decided to split as they adjusted to their newfound fame and life in the public eye.
He said: “I think coming out here, it’s such a different world that we live in, everything was so manic and it was hard to balance it out.
“As I said, I’m working on myself, herself and who knows…we could get back together.
“It was a mutual thing. She’s a lovely girl.”
Ronnie, who insisted he is currently single, called on E4’s Celebs Go Dating bosses to sign him up.
He added: “Yeah, definitely! I might need a little bit of help because nothing else seems to be working.
“It’s been really good [getting the female attention], but I’ve been a good boy as well.
In September, Harriet exclusively told The Sun in a candid interview: “I love him so much but it just didn’t work”.
Rumours swirled at the time that the villa favourites had called it off after he was spotted cosying up to a stunning teacher on a night out.
We told how he’d been spotted in Milton Keynes at city hotspot Blossom Room last month when his head was apparently turned.
He denied any wrongdoing – but weeks later they were hit by a series of rows.
Onlookers spotted Ronnie fuming with Hariett when she turned up late to the official launch of his new events brand, Eggi Boff.
Harriett confirmed they have called it quits, telling us: “Yes. Ronnie and I have split and these things happen.”
In a surprising confession, she admitted she still had feelings for him and the door was open for a reunion.
She said: “I love him so much but it just didn’t work as a relationship and that’s fine.
“We shared the most amazing experience together and I always have so much love and respect for him.
“I’m not saying no, but for now we’re taking a break from the relationship.”
