Love Island’s Anna and Sherif grow close again after secretly messaging and meeting up
LOVE Island's Anna Vakili is growing close to Sherif Lanre again.
The pair were coupled up on the show but their blossoming romance was cut short when Sherif was forced to leave the villa.
Anna, 29, went on to have a disastrous relationship with Jordan Hames.
But now it seems she's found her connection with Sherif again.
"Anna has been messaging Sherif on a friendly basis," a source exclusively told The Sun Online.
"He's got the hots for her and was really enjoying spending time with her when they met up last night."
Meanwhile, a close source added: "Anna made an impression on Sherif the moment he first set eyes on her, since being booted from the villa Sherif has gone on a string of dates but he’s always had Anna on his mind.
"He even dated a Anna lookalike, he’s messaged her a few times since being out the villa."
The rekindled romance comes after Anna was pictured getting a cosy with a mystery man last month as they enjoyed a romantic lunch date in London.
The reality star looked smitten as she held on to the man's arm while walking the streets of Notting Hill.
The romantic lunch came weeks after Anna was brutally dumped by ex Jordan in the villa.
Anna was left heartbroken after Jordan took a fancy to Ovie Soko's love interest India Reynolds and pulled her for a chat to tell her how he felt.
It led to a huge argument between Jordan and Anna who immediately called it quits.

Since leaving the show, Anna has unfollowed Jordan and Ovie, who she also briefly dated in the villa.
Anna was dating Jordan when she met Ovie in Casa Amor and quickly struck up a romance.
She even brought him back to the main villa, leaving Jordan single.
Her social media cull came after she vowed to cut out toxic friends in an Instagram video.
Speaking to her fans she said: "If your friendship is toxic then you should cut it out because you don't need that in your life.
"Friends are meant to uplift you and be there for you."
Anna's representative has been contacted for comment.
