Love Island star Harry Cooksley has addressed cheating rumours involving his girlfriend, Shakira Khan, after he was recently spotted getting close with a mystery woman.

Last year, Harry and Shakira were one of the most talked-about couples on the show. Viewers were hooked as they watched Harry navigate a love triangle with Helena Ford and now-girlfriend Shakira.

Now, almost eight months into life outside the villa, the pair have faced cheating rumours for the first time after Harry was spotted with someone else on the tube.

In a TikTok posted by a fan, Harry can be seen on the tube with a woman sat next to him leaning her head on his shoulder.

At the time, many fans jumped to conclusions about the situation. One commented: "no no no no no. I was actually rooting for them."

Someone else said: "Guys who is this and what’s going on?"

After being accused of cheating, Harry responded to the rumours himself, commenting: "Rhy is my friend and also has a gf 😂😂 nice pic tho xx"

The mystery woman Harry mentioned is Ryhanna Parara, who appears to be a close friend of his, having previously been pictured together on a brand trip last year. She is also in a relationship with a girlfriend.

Many Love Island stars flocked to the comments to share their love and excitement for the pair. Series 12 winner and close friend Toni Laites commented, "to think they doubted", while Megan Forte Clarke wrote: "yay congrats neighbours 🥹🥹🥹🤍."
