Love Island's Scott gives update on Catherine romance as reunion rumours swirl

Love Island star Scott van-der-Sluis has given an update on a possible reunion with Catherine Agbaje.

Since her exit from the villa and split from partner Elom, fans have been curious whether Scott and Catherine might rekindle their romance. In a recent Q&A with fans, Catherine hinted that she wanted to try again with Scott prompting fans to speculate the pair could get back together, given that Scott left the show in a friendship couple with Abi.

Scott appeared on After Sun tonight alongside Abi where he was asked by host Maya Jama about whether him and Catherine could be a thing again. Before he replied, he was quick to defend Catherine and slam those who had criticised her.

Speaking today, he said: "Yeah me and Catherine are friends now. I just want to put it out there. This is a reality show, you only see an hour of every day. I’ve seen a little bit of what’s been said to Catherine and it’s not right at all. I just wanna put that out there and stick up for her sort of thing because we did get on as friends before she left. We’re in a good place with it."

When Maya asked whether there was anything more to their relationship, or if they could ever be more than friends, he added: "At the moment, we get on as friends really well but there’s nothing more than that at the moment. I don’t know about a date just yet. I was sort of over that situation in the villa. You can never say never with it, but for me, at the moment I’m sort of done with it."

During an Instagram Q&A with fans, Catherine was asked by viewers if she'd like to get back with Scott. Remaining coy, she said she would be catching up with him outside the villa, with fans desperate to see them back together.

Asked about being with Catherine on the show, he said: "I didn’t think I told Catherine enough before Casa Amor about how I was feeling. At the same time I stayed loyal when I had the opportunity to go elsewhere. It wasn’t as if I went into Casa Amor and no-one liked me - I spoke to Gabby a bit but chose to stay loyal to Catherine. She didn’t do the same thing but hopefully it works out for her. Once the situation is put to bed for me, it’s done and there is no going back."
