Welsh lad Ciaran Davies was an OG on Love Island series 11 (2024) and made it to the final alongside then girlfriend Nicole Samuel, losing to Mimii Tafara and Josh Oyinsan. The pair finished in second place but split in December 2024, just four months after the dating show came to an end.
In January 2025, Ciaran headed back into the Love Island villa for All Stars 2026, alongside the likes of Whitney Adebayo and Sean Stone for a second shot at love, and only went and won the bloomin’ thing with icon of icons Samie Elishi.
Who is Love Island’s Ciaran Davies?
Ciaran is an Islander who took part in Love Island series 11 and the third series of All Stars. He is also a rugby player and influencer.
What happened to Love Island All Stars 2026?
Ciaran won the whole thing with Samie, with Maya Jama crowning them champions on 23 February 2026.
The Welsh hunk entered the villa on day one and was couple up with Millie Court by the public, but Millie was looking for someone older, so they quickly formed a cute brother x sister relationship. He then struck up a spark with bombshell Samie and aside from a Lucinda-Strafford-shaped test that put them on a kissing ban for a few days, it was smooth sailing for the couple. They returned to the UK together after the final and are still together.
Speaking of their win, Ciaran said, ‘We stayed in our own lane, we didn’t go and cause huge problems in the villa.’
Who did Ciaran Davies couple up with on Love Island 2024?
For his first few days in the 2024 villa Ciaran was coupled up with Harriett Blackmore – which, let’s be real, went disastrously wrong.
He then coupled up with Nicole on day five and remained loyal and smitten for the duration of his time in the villa. Several weeks into their relationship (in mid-July), Ciaran asked Nicole to be his girlfriend and she said YES because they are (well, were) just the CUTEST.
Technically, he also went on one date with bombshell Lolly Hart in the villa; she chose him for a date in the Hideaway, but nothing came of it.

Which former Islander does Ciaran Davies pretend to be on nights out?
According to the ruby player from South Wales, he once pretended to be Love Island 2021 winner Liam Reardon to get him and his mates into a club in Malia.
