Love Island stars George Tasker and Mollie Salmon have revealed they’re now step-siblings after their parents fell for one another at the show’s reunion in August.

The reality stars entered the ITV2 series during Casa Amor this year looking for love but, in a bizarre turn of events, have come away as siblings.

Tasker revealed on his Instagram Story how his mum and Salmon’s dad embarked on a whirlwind romance after meeting at the show’s reunion special.

He told his stunned followers: “So basically, absolute madness, my mum has married Mollie’s dad.

“So now we are stepbrother and stepsister, which is mad.

“They met at the reunion about a month ago and since then got engaged and got married.”

It seems that Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu weren’t the only winners to come out of this year’s series.

During her stint on Love Island, Salmon was seen flirting with Luca Bish and Jacques O’Neill before kissing and sharing a bed with Sanclimenti. However, nothing came of their flirtation, and she was sent home.

Meanwhile, Tasker claimed that he and Cülcüloğlu got close under the covers in Casa Amor, which caused issues when the couples returned to the main villa.

Previously discussing it on Instagram Live, Tasker claimed: “Her hand was in a place it shouldn’t have been, my hand was in a place it shouldn’t have been.

“Not for that long, but the line was crossed, that’s all I’m saying. Look, we’re friends, but I didn’t realise that that’s what friends do, so you know?”

However, Cülcüloğlu has vehemently denied that anything happened and refuted his claims.

Speaking on Capital Breakfast last month, she shared: “It was hot in there, obviously we’re both attractive people and we’re in the same bed together. Nothing happened.”

Recently, the Turkish beauty told the Evening Standard that she and Sanclimenti have never been better since leaving the villa.
