Love Island star reveals they are expecting a child in surprise update as they share adorable photos
Love Island star Theo Campbell revealed he is expecting a child in a surprise update on Tuesday. The hunk, 35, who first entered the villa back in 2017, shared a series of adorable photos to Instagram to announce the happy news. In a stunning photoshoot with his girlfriend Olivia Kaiser, 33, they posed by a lake with Olivia displaying her growing bump. The couple, who competed together on MTV's The Challenge: Battle of the Eras last year, revealed their baby is due December 5. They captioned the update: 'Our sweetest little secret. We've been enjoying some time off the grid — embracing the quiet, the love, and the magic of what's to come. 'Now it's time to let you in on the journey… Our little one is arriving soon.' The news comes one year after the couple first went Instagram official with their relationship. Theo also shares a son called Aries, who was born in February 2021, with influencer Sapphire Yhnell. At the time Theo revealed he 'wasn't expecting' to become a father at his age as he discussed becoming a parent for the first time. The reality star, who was 29 at the time, said that he had thought he'd wait until he was '35 or 36' before having children but that being a dad 'isn't as scary as he thought it would be'. Speaking on FUBAR Radio with hosts Bobby Norris and Brooke Odun, he opened up about his son. He said: 'Do you know what? I wasn't expecting it at first. I've always said, I was going to wait until I was 35, 36 and then just knock out three in a row. 'But it's not as scary as I thought. I thought it was the hardest thing in the world, the scariest thing, the biggest thing. It is the biggest thing, but it's not that hard. It's not that scary, you know?' The star kept the pregnancy a complete secret until the birth, something which 'wasn't easy', but admitted that he's pleased he was able to do so. Theo went on to explain that Sapphire, who is also mum to five-year-old son Tai, lives with their son in Wales. He said: 'My baby, he lives in Wales and I live in London. So on Sunday's I have to travel 130 miles, about two hours.' He revealed last year he was set to appear in the show's All Stars spin-off but was axed just hours before entering the villa. Theo even filmed the show's glossy promo before reportedly being downgraded from the main cast to a bombshell and replaced by fellow hunk Luis Morrison. He slammed the producers for 'wasting his time' on Friday in a since deleted social media post. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, he shared a clip of Kaz Kamwi following her shock dumping from the villa on Tuesday - amid the show's diversity row. Theo wrote: 'Imagine wasting 5 days of your life after being pursaded to start LI [Love Island] filming and the rest, for them to say a day before you're supposed to flay out, nah just come in 2 weeks... huh? No thanks'.
