NEW Love Island star Harriett Blackmore claims she has been single since January - despite spending the night with her 'boyfriend' just days ago. The Sun told today how the dancer, 24, had told her unsuspecting man she 'loved' him before leaving him 'livid and hurt' when she popped up in the line-up. Fans were quick to speculate about a secret boyfriend after Josh Curling, 25, appeared in a number of recent videos.
Speaking earlier today, before the truth about her relationship with Josh was revealed, Harriett insisted to The Sun: “I broke up recently with my boyfriend in January, so about four months ago. "We remained in contact because we were together for such a long time." But sources who know the couple said the self-styled “It” girl spent Friday night at Josh's house, where she gave him a scrapbook of photos from their relationship together and told him: "I love you.
" It is understood she dumped him later that evening over text, telling him: “I need time to focus on myself and what I’m doing.” Her friends said she wanted to tell him that she was going on the show but never did. But Harriett told the story rather differently, saying: "The break-up was quite out of the blue - we both had questions and we both wanted closure in that sort of sense.
"A lot of our lives were with each other...
so we remained in contact but I definitely don’t have a boyfriend. "He moved on with someone else, just to clear it up, we broke up in January.” When asked why they split.
