Love Island's Dr Alex 'threatened with violence' after buying four Welsh holiday cottages

Love Island's Dr Alex George has faced backlash online after buying four cottages in Pembrokeshire. Recently, the doctor and reality TV star, who hails from Carmarthen, revealed that he had bought four holiday cottages in the county to renovate and lease out for holidaymakers, but has also decided to give one away to a Ukrainian family "for as long as they need".

The 31-year-old doctor took to social media on Sunday to confirm the news. Sharing a photo of him standing at the front door of one of the properties he's purchased, he wrote: "I’m so excited to announce that I’ve bought four holiday cottages in beautiful Pembrokeshire, in Wales. I initially bought these for my passion for property and renovation, as well as wanting to create relaxing spaces for families to holiday and enjoy the Welsh countryside in!

"With all of the current devastation in Ukraine, I have decided I would love one of the cottages to be home to a Ukrainian family for as long as they need. My plan is to start the renovations and get the properties into a good state to house a family as soon as possible."
