LOVE Island star Ayo Odukoya has been pictured with his new girlfriend for the first time after “hard launching” their relationship on Instagram earlier this month.

The lovebirds were spotted outside a coffee shop in Manchester yesterday while waiting for an Uber, dressed head to toe in sporty attire.

The reality star, 26, who had previously sparked rumours of an All Stars appearance, was seen wearing a black t-shirt and grey shorts with white socks and a pair of casual black Birkenstocks.

Meanwhile, the lady in question, 24, sat on a pavement in a baggy white vest with black shorts and some casual brown shoes.

She wore her hair in a ponytail as the two both appeared busy on their phones while they waited for their ride home.

Alicia Scholes is the only daughter of football legend Paul Scholes, 50, and his wife Clair Froggatt.

She currently plays for London Pulse in the Netball Super League and represents England at international level.

Not only that but the blonde beauty is also an influencer, with over 100,000 followers amassed on Instagram.

Paul played for Manchester United for his entire professional playing career, scoring over 150 goals in more than 700 appearances between 1993 and 2013.

He also earned 66 caps for the England national team between 1997 and 2004.

The sports star is widely regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of all time and was renowned for his technical skills, accurate passing and powerful long-range shooting.

Earlier this month, Ayo took his and Alicia’s relationship to the next level by going Instagram official.

He uploaded a series of snaps of the stunning beauty posing in a black dress.

The loved-up duo first sparked up romance rumours in June when Alicia shared a series of pictures including one showing the back of a man’s head, and another of her holding hands with someone wearing a black hoodie.

Fans were quick to point out that Ayo owns an identical hoodie, seen on his own profile, and that the man’s distinct goatee closely resembled Ayo’s.

Ayo shot to fame on series 11 of Love Island last year and walked in as one of the original boys in the starting line-up.

He immediately struck up a connection with Mimii Ngulube before being involved in a love triangle when Uma Jammeh walked into the villa.

Ayo then met Jess Spencer in Casa Amor and the pair ended up making it to the final and ending their experience in fourth place.

However, the two only lasted two months outside of the villa and called time on their relationship in October 2024.

Jess is now dating Towie star Roman Hackett’s brother Braydon and the pair have been going strong since December last year.
