Everyone loves a festive romance and Love Island's Montana Brown has sparked rumours that she is heading for a Christmas fling with a certain X Factor contestant.

Mon, who split with her Love Island hook-up Alex Beattie within weeks of leaving the villa, was invited to attend the switching-on of Oxford Street's Christmas lights in London this week. Who else was there? Last year's X Factor winner Matt Terry, that's who.

While Montana wasn't turning on the lights herself (that honour was left to Rita Ora), she was asked to present Matt with a framed gold disc. She later posted a snap of herself, which was taken at the event, on Instagram and said: "It's the most wonderful time of the year! Turning on the @capitalofficial @oxfordstreetw1Christmas Lights with @mattterry giving him a very special surprise!"

And guess who replied? Matt, of course, but not with a simple, "Yeah, thanks." Oh no. Setting tongues wagging, he posting a kissing emoji. Cheeky.

Montana has also been raving about Matt on Twitter, by retweeting one of his posts with a series of raised hands emojis which, according to emoji translator iemoji.com, means "celebration or excitement". Excitement, eh?
