Love Island fans are going to love this news. 2016 winners Cara de la Hoyde and Nathan Massey are officially dating again!

The couple, who split earlier in the year, are expecting their first child together later in 2017 but didn't want to just get back together because they are having a baby.

In recent weeks the pair have been posting a number of photos of each other to their Instagram accounts, with fans thinking they'd rekindled their romance. Well now, during an interview with Reveal, Cara has revealed they are dating like a normal couple again.

Speaking to the magazine, the mum-to-be said, "When you’re having someone’s baby, you have that connection. We didn’t split up because we fell out of love."

She added, "We’re getting back on track but we don’t want to make anything official yet, until we know it’s right. It’s proper dating – if we’d had met like this a year ago, it’s how we would have been. It’s nice, as we miss each other."

Cara and Nathan confirmed they were no longer a couple back in April, with Cara writing, 'Me & nath have split 💔 sometimes love just isn't enough, but what will be will be ❤️ thankyou for everyone's support lately' on Twitter. sic

Former TOWIE star Nathan shared a snap of himself looking to the floor with the caption, 'The worst feeling in the world is when you know that you both love each other , but still you can't be together ! Me and Cara have split, we've had the summer of our lives together , but sadly come to a end , I wish her the best for the future đź’”.' sic

Just a few weeks later, Cara announced she was pregnant with Nathan's baby. At the time she said, “It’s a shame and a sad situation. I know a lot of people will think, well you’re going to have a baby together so just stay together – but we’re not going to do that just to look like the perfect couple."

Since then the couple have remained great friends, with Nathan attending all of Cara's scans. Just last month, the couple shared some 'family shots' to their Instagram pages looking very cute together.

We are glad things have worked out for the pair! đź’‘
