Pop star Tom Grennan’s secret romance with former Love Island star Amber Davies has been revealed and we did not have this on our 2024 bingo cards.
The Little Bit Of Love hitmaker, 28, reportedly enjoyed several dates with the Dancing On Ice star, 27, before they met their respective partners.
Amber, as Love Island fans will remember, won the third series of the ITV reality show alongside Kem Cetinay, but their love was not meant to be as they split just four months after the show ended.
A source close to the stars revealed the lovebirds dated before Tom went on to meet his fiancee Danniella Carruturo, and Amber began dating West End star Ben Joyce.
‘Tom and Amber got close a few years back and it was all kept totally secret. They’re both gorgeous and really clicked after being introduced,’ the insider revealed to The Sun.
‘Tom is a real gentleman and treated Amber like a queen. He invited her to see him at a music studio and they enjoyed some time together.

They went on to say that the relationship was ‘well known’ within their friendship circles, but Tom and Amber wanted to keep the budding romance under wraps so everyone was ‘sworn to secrecy.’
‘Given his mad schedule it never really moved on to anything serious and fizzled out in the end,’ they continued.
The source ended by saying they would have been a ‘great match if it wasn’t for work getting in the way,’ but that both Tom and Amber now have their ‘happy endings.’
Pop icon Tom proposed to girlfriend Daniella in 2022, describing her as his ‘life’ and the ‘woman of his dreams.’

Amber confirmed her romance with musical star Ben in the same year, telling the publication last week that they ‘became friends first’ before taking the next step.
‘So I fell in love with his mind before anything else,’ she continued.
‘He’s the kindest soul. He brightens up any room he walks into – he has that power.
‘And he puts me before himself every single time, going above and beyond. He’s one in a million.’
