Love Island winner Paige Turley in hospital after denying split from Finn Tapp

LOVE Island winner Paige Turley gave fans an update on her health after denying she'd split from boyfriend Finn Tapp.

The star told her legion of followers she has been put on doctor's orders to rest, after going into hospital for minor surgery.

Paige shared a photo from her hospital bed on Saturday and said: "Have a few messages asking if everything is okay as we have been a little quiet on socials this week.

"Just a little update. I had to go in for a v minor surgery. So I’m currently on bed rest whilst Finn plays nurse bless him."

The star later posted a snap of her holding a bottle of Lucozade from her home, and joked: ";When I was younger this was a saving grace for when I was ill.

"No matter what was wrong, could have been a sickness bug, an infection, broken bone, anything and my mum swore by it.

"Thanks for all the love guys home now and resting up.";

Paige and Finn – who appeared on ITV2 reality show Love Island in 2020 – left fans worried they had gone their separate ways after they spent the Easter weekend apart.

Their followers spotted that Paige had been spending time in her native Scotland, while Finn has been very quiet on social media.

One concerned fan wrote on Reddit: “I love them sm [so much] I really hope nothing happened.”

Another added: “Same there my fav love island couple, but something is offish though, her being in Scotland on her own for nearly two weeks is throwing me off and looking like something is up between them. Possibly they are working through a rough patch.”

But sources close to the pair told The Sun: “This is 100 per-cent false and not the case at all. They are very much still together and happier than ever.”

Last year Finn spoke about wanting to spend the rest of his life with Paige.

He told us: "Paige is deffo the one, I’m deffo going to be the one to pop the question.”

"I've got a plan, I’m not putting a timescale on it, it’s when the time is right.

"But within the next two years or so.

"Paige and I have always spoken about an abroad wedding, we might do two weddings, a close intermediate wedding with family and then a big party here with everyone."

Looking forward to the future, Finn teased that he'd love to start a family by the age of 25 but is also in no rush.

"I'm 22 now, I would say around 25 I want kids. But if it doesn’t feel right, I’m not going to be counting down the days.

"I’m from four children, I’d like two or three children. Maybe a son where I can train him.

"I might just call my son Finley or Finley junior."
