In new exclusive photos, Harrison was spotted surrounded by his friends and family who greeted him at the airport today.
But his love interest and axed Islander Lauren Wood was nowhere to be seen, despite vowing to wait for him.
Harrison, 22, was seen embracing his loved ones as they celebrated his return after he walked from the villa on Thursday night.
Despite the fan backlash, he flashed a big smile as he came face-to-face with his pals, who gave him a big hug.
The footballer was seen pushing his Love Island suitcase through arrivals, before sitting on it.
He wore a white striped shirt and a pair of black shorts with a black trainers for the flight home.
The reality star then exited the airport with his mobile phone in his hand after it was returned to him by producers after his exit.
A far cry from the sunshine in Mallorca, Harrison was seen bracing the rain on Saturday as he headed to the car park.
Although Lauren, who lives in York, was not there to greet Harrison, it is likely that she was arriving at another airport, given the pair live in different parts of the UK.
The Derby lad had been flip-flopping between Toni Laites and Lauren for days - leaving both of them in tears along the way.
Lauren was booted out of the villa after new bombshell Angel picked Ty to couple up with.
The brunette begged Harrison to come with her but he insisted he wanted to sleep on it and decide the next day.
Lauren broke down in tears but said she would wait for him on the outside and insisted: "I only want you."
On last night's episode, Harrison decided to leave and to continue his relationship with Lauren on the outside.
A source said: "It's been a momentous few days for Harrison and ultimately he has decided to quit.
"Everyone was so shocked and people were crying and hugging him.
"He worked through everything with the ITV duty of care team and is making his way home to his family now."
Harrison announced his decision to the villa, leaving his close pals in tears.
He then pulled Toni for a final chat where he tearfully apologised for stringing her along for weeks.
Harrison admitted: "We just weren't right for each other."
Toni burst into tears and said she was sad not because he was leaving but because she wasted so much time on him.
The day before, Harrison got emotional after seeing the devastation he was causing.
Controversially, he made a plea to Toni ahead of the latest recoupling to pick him, despite having had sex with Lauren the night before.
Toni's decision to choose him blindsided their exes Cach Mercer and Lauren, with both left sobbing after being embarrassed in front of their friends.
Earlier that day, she'd told Lauren she was done with Harrison.
Sitting by the fire pit, she said: 'He's all yours, girlfriend.
"I'm removing myself from this."
But the next day, he complimented Lauren's looks when he saw her wearing a red bikini and refused to close the door completely.
She was even caught helping him floss his teeth, which proved to be the final straw for Toni, who accused him of constantly "making her look stupid".
He then admitted that he "missed" Lauren and wanted to give things another go with her.

Sam Thompson mortified as Pete Wicks reads old thirsty tweet from Love Island star

Sam Thompson was left mortified as Pete Wicks reads old thirsty tweet from a fan who has turned out to be a main feature of this year edition of Love Island. Sam Thompson was left mortified as Pete Wicks reads old thirsty tweet from Love Island star. ‌ The former Made in Chelsea star, 32, was joined by his best friend to record an episode of their Staying Relevant podcast, when Pete dug up an old tweet directed towards Sam. ‌ At first, reading out the tweet, Pete said: "Where do I apply to sit on Sam Thompson's face? Asking for a mate." Sam looked shocked but then proclaimed that he knew who had sent the flirty message, and disclosed that she is currently a contestant of this year's edition of the ITV2 reality show. ‌ Bursting into laughter, Sam said: "No way!" before claiming that the person behind the tweet was in fact Helena Ford, who is just days away from the Love Island final and has been coupled up with footballer Harry Cooksley on and off since her time on the series began. Pete explained: "She tweeted this in 2017," and Sam described her as one of the 'main characters' on the programme. ‌ Pete pointed out to the I'm A Me Out Of Here! winner that the two will cross paths when he makes an appearance on Aftersun, and put pressure on his pal to bring up the tweet. He added: "I don't mind coming on to ask her!", to which Sam simply laughed. Teasing what he would ask Helena if he met her, Pete said: "So, Helena, what do you think of Sam's face? Do you want to sit on it?" Sam admitted that no one had ever done such a thing to him before and Pete immediately noted that he wanted to 'dig into' the situation further. " ‌ It comes after a dramatic night on Love Island for air hostess Helena, 29, and couldn't believe what they were seeing, as Harry called out Helena amid his flirty comments with Shakira during Thursday's instalment. During the Grafties, Harry and the rest of the villa were shown a clip of Helena from weeks ago when she told a co-star that she wasn't all in for Harry after their on/off couplings. Harry seemed shocked by this, claiming at the time Helena had told him she was all for him. So to see Helena claim otherwise left him stunned, while this was weeks ago before they gave things another go, and before they went "exclusive". ‌ Just hours earlier, Helena was left in tears when she found out Harry was having chats with 'ex' Shakira after their constant triangles across the series. While Harry had told Helena that Shakira admitted she still liked him and was trying to get over the situation, he failed to mention his flirting and how he'd told Shakira they should go on a date outside of the villa. Not only that, but he suggested to Dejon he still liked Shakira too, or at least that he hadn't fully processed what happened between them because he moved straight on with Helena. Helena was left crying over the situation, as other Islanders called out Harry's behaviour. So when the Grafties kicked off and the clip of Helena played, Harry's reaction shocked everyone, including viewers tuning in. ‌ He claimed to be bothered about Helena not being honest with him, and Toni immediately picked up on Harry "trying to pick a fight" with Helena just hours after he learned Shakira still liked him. Viewers believed Toni was onto something, and they too questioned if he had an agenda. Fans immediately suspected Harry was "looking for an out" with Helena, and was perhaps trying to force her to end things, or make it seem as though she was the cause of their split, if a split happened. Fans accused Harry of looking for a way to end things without coming across as the bad guy. Slamming his antics as "diabolical" and "shameful", fans said they knew exactly what he was doing. One viewer said online: "I think Harry is trying to pick a fight with Helena so he can end it and make her seem like the villain… not on." Another fan agreed: "Nah Harry really gonna pick a fight here so he can try and crack on with Shakira again. He's an actual piece of s**t." A third fan said: "Harry we know why you're tryna pick a fight have some shame." A fourth fan commented: "Harry is a sick sick man picking a fight with Helena so he has an out is diabolical." A further comment read: "HARRY IS A VILLAIN. HE IS GOING TO USE HELENA'S ACTIONS TO PICK A FIGHT AND FREE HIMSELF LIKE HE AINT BEING DOING ALL THAT AND THEN SOME!!!!"

Olivia Attwood stuns in flattering yellow top for This Morning presenting debut

Former Love Island star Oliva Attwood looked stunning in a butter yellow knit as she presented for the first time on This Morning Olivia Attwood always looks stunning – whether she's on TV or posting Instagram snaps off-duty. But her latest outfit provides a perfect example of why butter yellow is the colour of the season. Stepping into her presenting role for the first time, the former Love Islander was a total style icon on This Morning today (July 25). Olivia opted for the 'Ivy League' top from Lioness in a gorgeous yellow hue. We can always count on Olivia for top-notch fashion inspiration, and she certainly didn't disappoint as she presented the ITV daytime show. She wore the £64 cardigan with smart yellow trousers from Veronica Beard (£368) and white slingback heels that resemble this £28 ASOS pair. The 34-year-old looked amazing in her yellow outfit that complimented her figure, but still looked comfortable. The blonde beauty's chic top is not only available in an on-trend butter yellow colour, but also in an equally stunning brown shade. Both versions are still in stock on Revolve for £64, with sizes ranging from XXS to XXL. Fans of the cardigan can also find similar options on the high street for less. For example, this ASOS DESIGN V-neck style in lemon is £22. It has a frill around the garment's cuffs and is in a rib knit leading to a fitted design. For an even more affordable option, PrettyLittleThing has this yellow knitted top on sale for £13.25, down from £22. This version features a cute collar and reminds us of the film Clueless - there's even a matching skirt for those who like sets. Olivia's Lioness cardigan is already a hit with shoppers who have purchased it from the Revolve website. Some fans have even left glowing reviews of the product, and it's also marked as a bestseller. One delighted buyer said: "I usually don't write reviews but once I received this in the mail I had to. Perfect staple piece, super comfortable and amazing quality. Sleeves are long, but I'm 5'8 and naturally have longer arms so it fit just fine!" A second added: "I loved it! Amazing fit and very good quality." However, another person wasn't happy with the sizing, writing: "I wanted to love it but the sleeves went down to my knees!" Olivia completed her This Morning outfit with some stylish specs, while her hair and makeup was glamorous as usual. She has been seen on social media wearing the yellow Lioness top a few times lately.
