Before heading to the Love Island villa Maya claimed that she was 'really really single'. She previously dated rapper Stormzy and was engaged to Basketball player Ben Simmons. 

If you're wondering where you have seen Michele before, well he was spotted getting close to Khloe Kardashian at Milan fashion week. The pair were pictured together with his hand around her waist. Speaking about the viral snap on the new series of 'The Kardashian's' Khloe said “I think he's super hot. He's like a man. He's tall and hot and muscular.”

Although fans were left disappointed that the pair didn’t start dating that seems to have worked out well for Maya. Or has it? 

All was not what it seemed as Maya and Michele were, according to The Mirror getting close whilst filming for a new advert. The actor was seen getting his hair touched up and they had a camera crew with them.

A lot of couples meet through work so you never know something may happen?  We will just have to watch this space. 

Who is Michelle Morrone?

Michele is a 32-year-old actor from Italy. He is best known for his role as Massimo Torricelli in Netflix's 2020 erotic-romance film '365 Days'. He has also had roles in many TV series and several Italian and Polish films. He is set to star alongside actress Megan Fox in the upcoming sci-fi thriller 'Subservience'.

The actor is also a singer and self-taught guitar player. He learned to play the instrument at the age of 25 after watching videos on YouTube. He released his debut album 'Dark Room' in 2020 and he’s actually pretty good. Watch his acoustic version of “Beautiful” on Instagram. 

He has also modelled for Italian house Dolce and Gabbana’s eyewear range. Michele created his own women's luxury swimwear brand Aurumroma that he co-designs with Chiara Pollano. Is there anything this man can not do?

Fans will be happy to know that he is currently single after splitting from ex-wife Lebanese stylist Rouba Saadeh in 2018 after four years of marriage. The former couple share two sons.

Whether it's acting, singing, modelling or fashion designing. I think we will be seeing much more of Michele in the future.
