Hayley’s life after Love Island
Hayley first came to viewers’ attention during Love Island’s fourth series in 2018.
She initially coupled up with Eyal Booker before choosing Charlie Frederick later in her villa stay. Her time on the dating programme lasted just 13 days before she was sent home.
After leaving the show, Hayley had a seven-month relationship with DJ Tom Zanetti, which later ended.
Her brief villa appearance also attracted attention when she admitted she did not know what Brexit meant.
That led to an appearance on BBC’s Daily Politics, where she questioned journalist Adam Fleming about leaving the EU.
Hayley’s growing family
Etta is Hayley’s second child with her partner, whose identity she has not publicly revealed. The couple already have a two-year-old son and are based in Dubai.
Hayley announced her engagement in December, before sharing another family milestone during her latest pregnancy.
In July, she revealed she was expecting a girl by popping a large balloon filled with pink confetti.
Ahead of the birth, she also posted her final photographs showing her pregnancy bump.
Her announcement offered a glimpse of the baby’s nursery, with muted pink and oatmeal shades throughout. Personalised balloons featured in the room’s decorations.
