If you've not yet binged Netflix's new smash-hit Too Hot To Handle, then quite frankly, what have you been doing in lockdown?!

The show, which gives us serious Love Island feels, shows some smoking hot singletons on a paradise island attempting to stay celibate to win a share of $100,000... But of course, a LOT of rules are broken.

There's no doubt about it that the two biggest stars to come out of the show are Aussie Harry Jowsey and Canadian beauty Francesca Farago, with fans flocking to social media after ending the series to get an update on their relationship status.

Well, after THAT Instagram post proving they are still very much a thing, Harry joined KISS Breakfast's Tom & Daisy via a video link this morning (Thursday 30th April), and he seriously spilled the tea.

Daisy, who is Number 1 fan of Too Hot To Handle, grilled Harry about his current relationship, and when she asked if he'd be moving to Vancouver, Harry explained the couple actually split up for 8 months after filming ended for the show last year.

He told the guys, "So, we actually broke up for, like, eight months.

"So, we weren’t together for ages. So, she then, ah, okay, so, long story short, I accidentally got drunk and I said I would love to Facetime your dog, as you do, and then, next thing you know, she’s in LA and everything just makes sense and we’re back on together."

And it sounds like the happy couple won't be moving to either Australia or Canada, with Harry adding, "It makes more sense for her to move to LA, just for career wise and stuff like that, and, because, like, I’m here. So, instead of me going to Vancouver and it being cold, she wants to come here. So, that’s the, that’s the latest."

Yayy! ❤️

Meanwhile, Harry also casually dropped in the fact he is BFFs with the one and only Justin Bieber!

Sorry, what?! 😱

After telling Tom and Daisy how much his life has changed since the show aired on Netflix at the beginning of April, Harry said, "It’s actually, like, really overwhelming. Like, it’s kinda crazy, like, yesterday I had a hour and a half Facetime with Justin Bieber.

"Like, we’re boys now. Like, it’s, like life has changed, like, completely nuts and there’s just so many opportunities and so many gorgeous people and amazing people coming into my life, so it’s, yeah, it’s wild, it’s different."

Revealing how the new friendship came about, Harry explained, "I think he reached out. He, he enjoyed the show and he followed me on Instagram and then we started chatting and then he’s like, what’s your number and we’ve jumped on the phone a couple of times and then yesterday we just, kinda, just bro’d it down and just had a, like, a really, really good chat.

"So, he’s like, you know what, he’s one of the most caring and, like, really lovely humans. Like, I’ve never, never met someone who’s as lovely as him. Like, it’s insane. Like, when he was talking to me and we were having this conversation, I was just like, you’re, like, just have, like, a really soft and lovely soul. Like, I dunno, but it’s, it’s a good line."

WOW! 😱😱😱

Kori Sampson,

Kori is a model and personal trainer (another reality TV bingo point) from the UK. From his IG feed we can see he seems to enjoy posing topless. We're not complaining.

Bryce Hirschberg

According to his Wikipedia page (yep, this one's legit famous), Bryce is an award-winning actor, writer, director and producer. He's based in LA and also has a debut album on the way, phew we're exhausted just reading about him.

Chloe Veitch

Chloe is from Essex (another one for the reality TV show bingo) and was once asked to be in a girl band based in South Korea. Random, but we like it.

Kelechi Dyke

Kelechi 'Kelz' is a senior recruitment consultant and American football player currently living in London. He's described in his Netflix bio as 'an alpha-male who is used to getting what he wants.' Sounds like drama to us.

Nicole O'Brien

Nicole is an Irish marketing consultant based in London, who has previously worked on yachts in Chicago hosting the likes of Kanye West and Jay Z after graduating - that's quite the summer job.
