Love Island stars become step-siblings after their parents got married

An unexpected Love Island plot twist has cropped up after the parents of two stars marry.

Casa Amor's Mollie Salmon, 23, and George Tasker, 23, may not have found love on the show – but their parents were in luck, tying the knot a month after the reunion show.

"If it feels right and she feels right with me then you’d be stupid not to go for it - you’ve got to follow your heart." He added: "If there is something genuine then I’m going to go for it."

Tasker was gutted when this year's winner, Ekin Su, didn't couple up with him. Meanwhile, Salmon got close to Davide in the other villa.
