Love Island personality Scott Thomas appears to have found romantic happiness at last, following two unsuccessful attempts to secure a partner on the popular ITV2 reality series. The 38-year-old influencer, who is the brother of actors Ryan and Adam Thomas, has seemingly soft-launched a new relationship through a series of suggestive social media posts.
Cryptic Clues From The Italian Capital
Thomas recently enjoyed a getaway to Rome, where he documented his experiences on Instagram with a carousel of photographs that sent his followers into speculation overdrive. Among the images shared were pictures of the Colosseum, visits to famous cathedrals, and meals at Michelin-starred restaurants.
The Tell-Tale Evidence
One particular photograph proved especially intriguing to fans. The snap showed Thomas tucking into a plate of Italian desserts, with a woman's manicured hand and tanned legs clearly visible in the frame. While the reality star didn't explicitly identify his companion, the intimate nature of the image strongly suggested romantic involvement.
Accompanying his travel photos, Thomas wrote: "Bringing another Vision Board moment to life this weekend… my first time in Rome and it didn't disappoint.. what an incredible few days." He added a more personal note that many interpreted as referencing his new relationship: "This s**t puts a smile on my face. The best always win in the end."
Family Reactions And Fan Speculation
The development has apparently delighted Thomas's famous siblings, who have previously expressed their hopes that he would find a lasting relationship. Brother Adam responded to the Instagram post with the supportive comment: "Glowing x," indicating his approval of the apparent new romance.
Fans were quick to pick up on the clues, with one observant follower noting: "Looks like he's met someone then." Another commented: "I spy a nice manicure and some tanned legs. Go on Scotty boy! So happy for you. Plus, Rome looks gorgeous too."
A History Of Romantic Pursuits
Scott Thomas first appeared on Love Island in 2016, returning for the All Stars spin-off edition in subsequent years. Despite his participation in the romance-focused programme, he remained single throughout both stints, much to the disappointment of his family members.
His brothers, both established actors in long-term relationships themselves, have been vocal about their desire to see Scott settled. Ryan Thomas is engaged to former TOWIE star Lucy Mecklenburgh, with whom he shares two children, while Adam Thomas maintains his own committed relationship.
Recent Family Dynamics
The Thomas family dynamics recently came under scrutiny during an episode of their podcast, At Home With The Thomas Brothers. Lucy Mecklenburgh joined her fiancé and his brothers for a recording where she humorously described the family as "weird" and "not normal."
She recounted an incident where Scott and Adam were filming TikTok videos at her Manchester mansion while she was trying on holiday outfits. "Every time I came out in an outfit, they were both wolf-whistling me," she revealed, prompting laughter from Ryan who admitted: "I love it though."
Despite these lighthearted family moments, Scott Thomas's apparent new relationship represents a significant personal development for the reality star who has publicly sought romantic connection through television programmes designed for that very purpose.
