Love Island star Connor Durman has given fans an update on his budding relationship with Sophie Piper.

The couple met in the villa, but ended up having their love story cut short when Connor was dumped from the villa, with Sophie following days later.

Speaking to The Sun, Connor revealed the couple were still together but taking things slow.

"It's going really well," he said. "We've not been on social media together, but we're still meeting up all the time.

"We're just keeping things quiet at the moment. We're both happy with how things are going.

"It's so intense in the villa, it's nice to do things naturally in the real world when you're out. We want to go nice and slowly and not jump ahead."

Connor added that while the pair haven't had the "exclusive chat" yet, they are "both really into each other and aren't talking to anyone else."

Connor added: "The way things are going I think it could get serious. We're not jumping ahead and just seeing how things are going, but it's all positive.

"In the future we definitely would live together, but we've not spoken about it because we've only been out of the villa a month or so.

"We're both concentrating on each other and work."

Last month Sophie had revealed that she and Connor planned to spent Valentine's Day together, with a trip to Brighton.

"We're seeing each other and dating," she said. "We're just seeing how it goes really and not putting any pressure on it."

Love Island will return this summer on ITV2, and you can catch up on the show via ITV Hub.
