At one point during this year's Love Island, it looked like fireman Michael Griffiths could win the show alongside Geordie girl Amber Gill... That was until his head was turned during Casa Amor week for model Joanna Chimonides.

After leaving Amber heartbroken by coupling up with Joanna, the Scouser later changed his mind again, trying to win back Amber when Joanna was dumped later in the series, but this didn't work out for him as Amber chose Irish hunk Greg O'Shea.

THEN, in another dramatic twist, Michael was photographed snogging Joanna at Kisstory on the Common, leading fans to believe the pair had rekindled their romance.

Despite this, Michael has now confirmed he's 100% single, but did admit he's not ruling out a future romance with Joanna.

Speaking as he launched his exclusive partnership with Manchester fashion label The Couture Club, Michael said, "I've been busy securing this deal and doing TV and radio appearances.

"I'm not dating anyone at the moment. But I wouldn't rule out anything happening with me and Joanna in the future. It's a possibility, I'm not too sure yet."

Meanwhile, after making a number of close friends in the Love Island villa, Michael also revealed he's keen to keep in touch with his fellow Islanders, admitting he's going to Ibiza next month for Anton Danyluk's birthday.

The 27-year-old said, "I couldn't go on the last trip but I was there on FaceTime. So this will be a nice break for me, I'm really looking forward to it. I speak to Anton, Jordan and Joe all the time."

It's also a busy time for Michael work wise, as he's landed a deal with former Ex On The Beach star Ross Worswick for his clothing brand The Couture Club. As Ross and his business partner Scott Shashua described Michael as "the perfect fit" for their brand, Michael said, "I'm really excited to be working with The Couture Club, it's a brand I've had my eye on for years. The designs are very me. If I was to design my own clothing it would be very similar to their products. "

'Michael x Couture' is a six-month deal which was announced on Monday 19th August. Michael is due to attend the launch of the brand’s first-ever London store, opening next month.
