Love Island's Kady McDermott makes red-carpet debut with new boyfriend

Former Love Island star Kady McDermott has made her red-carpet debut with new boyfriend Henry Simmons.

The couple stepped out together for the first time on Thursday (September 20) at the UK premiere of Transformers One in London.

Kady was photographed in a black gown and carrying a white Chanel purse, while Henry looked sharp in a dark-coloured suit.

Earlier this month, Kady hinted she was in a new relationship by sharing photos on Instagram from her holiday in San Tropez. One picture showed her holding hands with a man, but his face wasn't visible.

Her new boyfriend Henry Simmons has a background in reality TV just like Kady, having starred in the TOWIE-style format Absolutely Ascot on ITVBe.

Telly fans first met Kady when she appeared in the second season of the revived Love Island, where she made the final while coupled up with Scott Thomas.

Kady later dated The Only Way is Essex star Myles Barnett and joined the ITVBe reality show as a full-time cast member for its 23rd season.

She was subsequently supposed to be in the cast of Celebs Go Dating in 2022 but revealed that she'd been "dropped for someone else" by the production team.

Last year, Kady returned to the Love Island villa as a surprise bombshell. While her relationship with Ouzy See didn't work out, she said she learnt an important lesson from coming back to Love Island.

"It was so different, but there were so many aspects that were the same like the Beach Hut," she said. "It was a rollercoaster, but I loved it. There were such good people in there — people that I never would have met in the real world."

Love Island airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
