And Love Island's Rebecca Gormley and Biggs Chris reunited for a passionate kiss in Newcastle on Sunday after spending 10 weeks apart due to the coronavirus lockdown.

Rebecca was sporting a tie-dyed Nike T-shirt which she had fashioned into a crop top which she teamed with baggy ripped jeans and trainers. 

She kept out the cold with a padded white jacket, wearing her hood up. 

Biggs was easy to spot in his bright orange padded jacket which he teamed with black shorts, a matching T-shirt and colourful Nike high-tops.

Rebecca was forced to miss Biggs' 28th birthday last month as they have been self-isolating in different locations.  

Rebecca has been residing at her family home in Newcastle and Biggs has been living in Scotland.  

The pair split up briefly before lockdown after Rebecca had a drunken sleepover with 2019 contestant Michael Griffiths.

The pair have since reconciled, with the model admitting: 'If the shoe was on the other foot, I would get how he feels.'

Speaking on FUBAR Radio, Rebecca happily reported things are better than ever between the couple and that they talk everyday amid the COVID-19 lockdown. 

She continued: 'You know what, I love it! There’s literally not a day that goes by that we don’t chat.

'We just go on FaceTime and literally when we’re doing our day, I’m just there in the background and he’s there in the background and we just chat and laugh about every day.

'If I’m totally honest, obviously when we came out the villa we’ve spent quite a bit of time together, but I don’t think it’s enough time for us to say, "right let’s make it official".

'So the way that I put it across to people is like, we’re more than friends but we just don’t have a label of being in a relationship.'

The pair first sparked relationship rumours after they left the Mallorcan villa in February, following Rebecca's short fling with administrator Jordan Waobikeze, 24.

However, their fresh romance was rocked by claims the brunette bombshell cheated on the Scotsman with former firefighter Michael, 28 - a rumour they both deny. 

On rekindling their bond, an insider added to The Sun: 'Absence has made the heart grow fonder - when lockdown is over I expect they'll be fully back together.'

MailOnline has contacted Rebecca's representatives for further comment.

Biggs previously admitted his love interest 'f***ed up' after drunkenly spending the night on Michael's sofa, but decided to give her a second chance before they eventually drifted apart. 

The Casa Amor star, who had gone home from the night out in question early, was left confused after he woke to find the Geordie beauty absent from their hotel room. 

The reality star said the incident has made him want to take their relationship 'slower', especially after receiving messages saying he needed to be 'careful' about dating Rebecca.
