Love Island’s Arabella Chi and Wes Nelson step out for the first time together at ITV party – but he leaves with ex Megan Barton-Hanson
LOVE Island stars Wes Nelson and Arabella Chi were pictured together for the first time as they arrived at the ITV Summer Party last night.
But Wes was spotted heading to the after party with his ex-Megan Barton Hanson – with Arabella nowhere in sight.
The Sun Online yesterday revealed that Wes and Arabella had grown close after enjoying a romantic dinner together.
They have been getting to know each other in recent weeks after Arabella was dumped from the Love Island villa.
But Wes and Megan looked very cosy as they were seen entering Freedom Bar in Soho after the ITV bash.
Megan oozed confidence in a low-cut leopard-print jumpsuit which is sure to have caught Wes' eye.
Wes and Arabella met due to sharing the same management but it wasn't long before they started meeting up for personal reasons.
A source told The Sun there was a definite spark between them, saying: “Wes and Arabella are each other’s types and they have great chemistry.
“They went for an intimate dinner last night in London and really hit it off – they have a lot in common after being on Love Island and both loving fitness.
“It’s really early days but there’s undoubtedly a natural connection between them.”
Model Arabella, 28, was dumped from Love Island after just a week and was forced to watch ex-partner Danny Williams recouple with Jourdan Riane.

But her single status after leaving the villa meant she was able to get to know Wes, who starred on the show last year.
Wes, 21, reached the final with ex-girlfriend Megan Barton-Hanson but they split six months later.
She accused the hunk of playing away with his Dancing on Ice pro partner Vanessa Bauer when he competed on the ITV series last January.
