‘Love Island UK’: Liam Reardon Sheds ‘Love Rat’ Image?

Love Island UK alum Liam Reardon wants to shed his “love rat” image. He admitted that he wants to rebrand himself. The Welsh native can’t seem to move on from his past. In July, Liam split from his ex-girlfriend Millie Court.

At the time, fans wondered if infidelity was the reason. Liam is hoping to get rid of the reputation he built up on the ITV 2 dating series. He claims that he was “manipulated” into cheating at Casa Amor. Read on to learn why Liam says he’s not the man people saw on Love Island UK.

Liam Reardon wants to shed his bad-boy image

In an exclusive interview with The U.S. Sun, Liam talked about his time on Love Island UK. He admitted that he wants to move on from the reputation he built up. He blames the show for giving him the “love rat” image. The former islander says he’s nothing like the guy that producers portrayed him as.

“I feel as though I was trying to be myself on Love Island,” Liam told The U.S. Sun. “Maybe I got manipulated to be something else at certain times, like at Casa Amor.”

Liam is hoping to find love again on Celebs Go Dating. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, he turned down the opportunity to return to Love Island UK. Liam said he doesn’t want to “do an Adam Collard.” He feels the other dating show is the chance to show fans who he really is while having another shot at love.

“A lot of people still maybe hold a grudge for something I did, and they have this perception of me being a bad person when I’m not, I don’t think,” Liam continued in his interview. “I feel like I’m a nice guy — I try to be a nice guy. I made a mistake at Casa Amor but I don’t want it to define me.”

Love Island UK split: Millie Court moves on

Liam hopes to find someone special out there. As for his ex-girlfriend, Millie Court has been living life. She went on a girl’s holiday to Thailand. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, the Love Island UK alum shared many thirst traps and bikini photos on Instagram. She went with her best friend Lucinda Stafford.

She looks as if she’s taking it well. Liam admitted that they’re still good friends despite their split. They’re moving out of the home that they shared. The Love Island UK alum also had nothing but kind words to say about Millie.
