Love Island's Amy Hart was rumoured to be dating Liam Payne- and she even got hate from One Direction fans for it!

Love Island's Amy Hart, 26, may have revealed that she's 'never had a boyfriend', but she's been linked to none other than Liam Payne after a cosy Instagram snap of the pair emerged on a night out together at Funky Buddha in London.

Currently coupled up with Scotsman, Anton Danyluk, she's already found herself coupled up with someone who has a 'wandering eye'- her biggest turn off.

Her night out with Liam was her first introduction to the limelight, recounting that: "I went on a night out once and Liam from One Direction was there."

"We were in the VIP bit and so was he and he walked past me and I smiled and he said ‘Hey, you alright? What’s your name?"

"He told us to come and sit in his booth and we had a picture together."

"I put it on Instagram and then my cousin who was twelve and a big One Direction fan put it on her Instagram and suddenly I was on all these international One Direction accounts."

"I was on Sugarscape and I was getting hate from ten-year-olds because they thought I was dating him!"

Not only did Amy not date Liam, but she's admitted to never having a proper boyfriend before either, so we're hoping she'll have more luck inside the villa!

Another contestant, Lucie Donlan, 21, is the ex of 2018 islander Charlie Frederick- who has been less than complementary about the new hopeful, telling the MailOnline that she 'isn't looking for love' and has used his name in order to achieve 'z-level fame.'
