Love Island star Rachel Finni is expecting her first child.
The reality contestant, 30, took part in the series in 2021 which went on to be won by Millie Court and Liam Reardon, entering as a bombshell.
While she didn’t find love in the villa, it hasn’t deterred Rachel, and she is now preparing to become a mum for the first time.
Rachel made the announcement on Instagram on Tuesday, with a black-and-white video of her stomach with her unborn child moving inside her.
She shared the clip to the song What A Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong, and captioned it with a simple white heart.
Friends, fans and family were quick to share their congratulations, with fellow Love Island alumni Summer Botwe writing ‘oh my love, congratulations.’

Michael Boateng, who recently appeared on Love Island Games, added a red heart, while influencer Eva Zapico wrote: ‘Oh my goodness, congratulations! I’m so happy!’
As well as the video, Rachel shared a black-and-white snap of her cradling her bump while taking a mirror selfie.
Rachel made headlines following her Love Island exit as she used her newfoud platform to call for more diversity on the show.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk in 2022, she said ‘every single Black girl and to an extent Black guy has had some kind of negative storyline attached to their name including the mixed-race guys.’
‘I want to see genuine diversity, I want to see people embrace Black women and men. I want to see Black women being complimented.’
