MAFS UK’s Nathan Campbell confirms romance with Love Island star Abi Moores as they make loved-up appearance at Radio 1 Big Weekend launch party

Married At First Sight UK star Nathan Campbell has confirmed his romance with Love Island beauty Abi Moores, as the pair made a loved-up appearance at Radio 1 Big Weekend’s launch party on Tuesday.

The pair, who have been secretly dating for the past month, put on a cosy display as they departed the bash at The Standard H๏τel.

Abi flaunted her incredible figure in a plunging black mini dress and a matching bralet, while Nathan cut a dapper figure in a matching suit.

Speaking to The Sun at the event, the pair revealed they were first set up on a blind date by mutual friend Reuben Collins, who starred on Love Island with Abi.

Abi said: He is literally my type to a tee and he’s a nice genuine guy, there’s no hidden agenda.

‘I feel like Nathan is not able to lie. So when he says things, he genuinely does mean them.’

Nathan added: ‘That’s ADHD, I have no filter. If it’s on my mind, it’s coming out. I went up to her and said ”do you fancy me?” and she said ”yeah”.’

During his stint on MAFS UK last year, Nathan started a romance with Lacey Martin, but they split just weeks later when he claimed she said they were ‘better off as friends.’

Following reports that Nathan and Abi were dating, Lacey was reportedly ‘furious’ with a source telling The Sun: ‘Lacey can’t believe after Nathan making out she was the fame hungry one he’s now seeing a girl from Love Island. 

‘She feels like this is what he always wanted and that’s fame. He spoke about wanting to be a model and be in a boy band and do I’m A Celeb.’

Nathan hit back at Lacey’s comments after he and Abi confirmed their romance, saying: ‘I would never use anyone for clout. It’s not what I’m about.

‘I just like nice people and by chance I met Abi.’

During the MAFS UK reunion last month, Nathan accused Lacey of plotting a ‘showmance’ between them after the experiment.

In toe-curling scenes, Nathan also shared that Lacey suggested they keep up the ruse of their relationship to ‘get magazine deals,’ while she hit back that he blocked her on social media.

While Nathan attempted to confront Lacey about her behaviour, she insisted she didn’t want to go ‘тιт for tat,’ instead reading a letter looking back at their relationship, before clashing with him yet again at the dinner table.

In another awkward moment, Lacey dramatically declared she was ‘leaving’ as both Nathan and pal Kieran Chapman continued to press her on the ‘showmance’ claims.

However, many of the guests hesitated before going after her, with Ella Morgan seen asking: ‘Is anyone going to go after her?’ before several girls convinced her to return.

Taking to Instagram Stories to share a post, which she has since deleted, Lacey claimed that much of Nathan’s true colours were ‘edited out,’ saying that he ‘refused to wish her luck for Race For Life.’

She wrote: ‘Thank you to every single person who has messaged me! I’m overwhelmed with how many people can relate.

‘I love you all and forever grateful.

‘So sooooo much was edited out! What about Nathan not withing me good luck for race for life? As my Mum had cancer.

‘What about Nathan agreeing saying he wanted to do a boy band and modelling and deals???

‘I stuck up for myself. But everything has been edited out! Due to Nathan’s mental health! What about mine?

‘Sending everyone love sending me beautiful messages from start to finish, be mindful.’

And while the reunion implied that many of the couples were reluctant to follow Lacey when she stormed out, fellow bride Sacha Jones has taken to Instagram Stories to share the truth.

A post, which Lacey has since re-shared, said: ‘Just for the record @lacemartin_ said she needed to leave for her mental health. And we all told her to stay but she insisted on leaving.

‘That’s why no one went after her. And I did say I’m not convincing someone to stay if it’s not healthy for them to. 

‘She knows I was there for her. Including telling Kieran not to gang up on Lace when it’s nothing to do with him. I love both Nath and Lace.’

Lacey went onto share a string of positive comments from fans on Facebook, before thanking her fans for their ‘kind messages.’

Despite being one of the only couples to make it through the entire experiment – last November it was reported that they had secretly split.
