LOVE Island's Samantha Kenny has sparked fresh speculation about romance rumours with Pete Wicks - after jetting off on holiday with one of his former Towie co-stars.
Makeup artist Samantha, 27, is currently enjoying a sunshine break with Harry Derbidge, 31, who previously appeared on The Only Way Is Essex alongside Pete, 37.
Samantha shared a string of snaps to her Instagram Stories, including a mirror selfie with Harry, which she captioned: “Brother and sister.”
In a video, the Liverpool-born star posed in a busty cream swimsuit as she filmed herself in the mirror, showing off her glam holiday look and golden tan.
It comes after Strictly star Pete was seen hugging the reality TV beauty outside outside Amazonico nightclub last month before they left together in a taxi.
Samantha found fame last year when she dated Pete's Towie co-star Joey Essex in the Love Island villa.
The star's time on the show ended in tears when Joey dumped her for Grace Jackson.
But Sam got her revenge when she was invited back to the villa alongside a group of dumped islanders to vote one couple out before the final.
Her and Pete's affectionate moment comes amid reports that he has “moved on and couldn’t care less” about ex Maura Higgins.
The pair had been in a blossoming relationship and she even spoke about him in the I'm A Celebrity jungle before they dramatically split up two months later.
Maura then branded Pete a cheater, after it was revealed in February that they had called time on their romance.
A source told the Mail: "Maura and Pete have decided to call off their romance.
"There have been a few clashes, and it was eventually agreed they were better off as friends.
"Those closest to them know it's been a very on and off relationship, which is why they were so resistant to go public in the first place.
"They remain close and share a deep connection."
