Joel Corry is dating a former Love Island star, after months of reportedly dating in secret. 2022 Love Island star Coco Lodge confirmed her romance with the 34-year-old 'Head and Heart' hitmaker on Instagram by posting a series of sweet pictures.

After spending time together in Ibiza, Coco shared some snaps of her and Joel on her Instagram page, along with a series of other moments from the trip. In one picture, Joel and Coco can be seen smiling as they pose for a mirror selfie together, whilst another picture sees Joel with his arm around Coco.

Captioning the post, the 28-year-old wrote: 'mini Ibiza trip.' Underneath the pictures, Joel took to the comments section and wrote: 'Best week', followed by two red heart emojis. Joel also added a photo of him and Coco to a series of snaps he shared from Ibiza.

According to the MailOnline, Coco and Joel have been dating since January, with Coco joining him in Las Vegas and Ibiza - where he is currently performing a residency at Ibiza Rocks.

A source told the publication: "Coco and Joel have been dating since the beginning of the year. They have so much in common, they're both fun-loving people and adore music, fitness and travel.

"Coco has joined Joel in Ibiza several times this summer as he performs his residency at Ibiza Rocks and being apart for long periods this year has only made their relationship stronger.

"All Coco has wanted since going on Love Island is to find someone she can settle down with and now it's looking like that could be Joel. They're very happy."

Joel was previously in a relationship with fellow Geordie Shore star Sophie Kasaei for six years, until they split in 2017. Meanwhile, Coco previously turned Andrew Le Page's head during Casa Amor during her stint on Love Island.

Andrew coupled up with Coco at Casa Amor, before deciding that he wanted to recouple with his original partner Tasha Ghouri - who he is still with today.

In iconic scenes, Andrew told Tasha about what happened between him and Coco as he famously declared: "I licked her t-- or whatever."
