Love Island’s Matilda Draper looks radiant in a stunning wedding dress after loved-up display with boyfriend Roman Hackett

Matilda Draper tried on a stunning wedding dress while attending a bridal collection launch on Friday. 

The Love Island star, 24, was spotted looking loved-up with her TOWIE star boyfriend Roman Hackett on Thursday. 

And just hours later, she was seen trying on a beautiful lace bridal gown from MAFS star April Banbury’s wedding collection. 

Matilda looked radiant in the off-the-shoulder number, which featured a sheer embroidered bodice and a voluminous tulle skirt. 

The TV personality seemed enamoured with her look, sharing several videos of herself in the dress at the bridal suite on her Instagram Stories. 

“Got to try on April Banbury’s new bridal collection and I can’t cope,” she wrote alongside a tearful face emoji.

In one video she was seen looking in the mirror and gasping at her reflection in the opulent dress, while another showed her smiling as her train was adjusted. 

‘So amazing,” Matilda gushed in the caption. 

Her day out comes hours after she packed on the PDA with Roman as they arrived at filming for TOWIE at Brentwood Kitchen. 

The duo kissed on the lips and posed with their arms around each other as they headed into the restaurant. 

The couple confirmed their relationship by going Instagram official last month.

Matilda turned heads in a glamorous red mini dress at Oh Polly’s Christmas party, which she attended with Roman.

The reality star also shared snaps of Roman’s gifts to her, which included a bouquet of flowers and a personalised card with pH๏τos of them together.

After weeks of speculation, the couple revealed they had already said ‘I Love You’, given the message inside the card.

Fans first picked up on rumours they were dating after Matilda showed off a new pair of trousers with a patchwork design and the wording ‘Grand Theft Auto’ across the front.

As she posted a snap showcasing her trendy ensemble on Instagram, Roman shared a cheeky picture to his own account.

He shared a picture of him getting close to a girl wearing the same trousers and black leather jacket. 

Their romance comes just months after Matilda and her ex Sean Stone separated.

The couple met on Love Island last summer and came third in the final.

Despite enjoying a loved-up date outside the villa, the couple parted ways just one month after the show ended.

‘We appreciate all of your support throughout our time together and all the love you have shown us. love you all [pink heart emoji].’

Quickly after Matilda posted a statement, Sean shared the same message but added: ‘We both believe this is the best step for us moving forward.’

Sean elaborated on their breakup a day later, explaining that they were too ‘busy’ to ‘make it work’.

‘It was always going to be difficult coming out the Love Island bubble, being around someone as amazing as Matilda the whole time, with no worries, no real anything, nothing going down in the real world…. we were just there just living it 24/7,’ he told fans on Instagram.

‘So coming out, we have tried to make it work but she’s super busy, I’m super busy, it’s just one of those things really and, you know what? 

‘I wish her all the best. She’s gonna absolutely smash it and, you never know, down the line… just gotta see what happens. But right now it’s for the best.’
