The Naked Barista founder appeared in the first ever winter edition of Love Island in 2020.
He formed a couple with Sophie Piper - whose sister is Rochelle Humes - with them agreeing to stay together when he was dumped from the island.
They even survived together for several months outside the villa and planned to move in together but broke up after lockdown hit.
A source told The Sun at the time: "Things just fizzled out. They never even went official.
"It just didn’t have a chance to get started because of lockdown and they both agreed it was better to just stay friends."
Just months after the breakup, Connor began dating Ella and they've remained together for over three years.
