Their romance seemingly only lasted a few months as they decided to go their separate ways.

Before her appearance on the winter edition of Love Island, she was asked about her claim to fame.

"In my work as a makeup artist I’ve worked with lots of celebrities," she said.

"Also, when I was 6 years old I used to live in Spain and I was in an episode of Benidorm as an extra."

She also admitted that she falls in love with people quickly.

"I tend to know quite soon if I could fall in love with that person and then, as long as everything is going well, I’ll probably tell them I love them in about a week," she added.

When asked about what gives her the 'ick', Lana explained: "I don’t mind people texting me all the time but if you send me question marks if I’ve not replied to you in a while, you’re gone.

Meanwhile, Owen had a busy few months thanks to his incredible stint on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

In December, the 23-year-old actor looked back on his time on the show and said he almost quit the jungle.

After Nadia admitted she had considered baking a cake for the permanently hungry Hollyoaks star, Stacey explained how it was nice to see him in the jungle with 'no agenda' and just enjoy the experience.

"I had no agenda, it was a bucket list thing and to meet Ant and Dec," Owen explained. "I expected to be one of the first ones out and I was more than happy with that.

As Nadia asked if there were ever times he wanted to 'run' from camp, the star admitted: "Yeah, there were a few times when I thought 'what am i doing here' with so many amazing people talking about their careers and I didn't know what I had to offer."
