LOVE Island star Ronnie Vint has risked points on his license and a fine after being spotted using his phone while driving.
The 28-year-old was seen “glued to his phone” for almost 10 minutes while driving his Black BMW in heavy traffic - shocking fellow drivers.
Ronnie was held up in Mother's Day crowds heading back to London, when he was snapped in a photo obtained by The Sun.
In the picture he can be seen holding his smartphone with both hands, while stuck in slow-moving traffic on the A2 motorway in Kent.
A Love Island fan noticed the celebrity driving without even holding the wheel as she was also caught in the Sunday evening congestion near the Blackwall tunnel.
She told us: “He was just glued to it.
“We were sat in traffic for about 45 minutes. He was using his phone for about 10 minutes.”
“‘How inconsiderate,’ I thought. We were next to him in the traffic for quite a while.”
“The traffic was slow but we were still moving.”
“We’ve got a newborn, so we are very cautious on the road.”
She added: “He’s in the public eye, so for him to be sat on his phone in broad daylight with so many people around. It made me think he was just so silly.”
If caught using a phone while behind the wheel, drivers can be fined £200 and received six points on their license.
Ronnie, who is a semi pro footballer, rose to fame on Love Island last summer where he met Harriett Blackmore.
The pair split shortly after amid cheating rumours but reconciled when they both appeared on All Stars at the start of this year.
Ronnie’s rep declined to comment.
