Connor notably appeared on the sixth season of Love Island, aka the show's first ever winter series, where he was coupled up with Sophie Piper on day one.
Shortly after a dramatic recoupling ceremony, Connor was dumped from the villa, with Sophie following just days later.
The pair reunited after leaving the villa, before announcing their split six months after the series concluded.
Sophie returned to the villa for the show's first All Stars season earlier this year, where she came in third place with season one star Josh Ritchie.
Love Island airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
