If you're an OG Love Island fan then you'll remember how iconic Love Island 2017 was.

We had Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham's relationship, Chris Hughes and Kem Cetinay's iconic bromance and we'll never forget Theo Campbell's one liner.

Remember when he branded Jonny Mitchell a "tuna melt"?

LOL.

Well, it's been over six years since Theo's stint in the villa and with Love Island All Stars fast approaching, we thought we'd have a look at the series three Islander and what he's doing now...

When was Theo Campbell on Love Island?

If you watched the third series of Love Island - aka the year Kem and Amber Davies won - then you'll remember Theo's short but sweet stint.

Who did Theo Campbell couple up with?

During his nine days in the villa, Theo caused a stir when he coupled up with Tyla Carr. Jonny was fuming and branded Theo a "gigantic bellend" and it almost ended in a fight.

What did Theo Campbell say when Jonny Mitchell left?

After Jonny and Tyla received the lowest public votes, they were forced to split and decide which one of them would be dumped. They agreed that Jonny would leave the villa, cue Tyla hysterically crying.

She was crying so loud, that Theo infamously said, "I think if Tyla really liked him she should go as well really."

While most of the Islanders laughed, some didn't find it funny including Jonny who told Theo to "f--k off".

Theo then added, "No, I'm just saying if she really cared that's what she'd do."

Savage.

When was Theo Campbell dumped from the villa?

Theo sure made us laugh (that's why we want him on All Stars), and although he's a standout star he was only in the villa for nine days. He was dumped on day 41.

What happened with Theo Campbell and Kaz Crossley?

Theo and Kaz Crossley recoupled outside the villa in 2019. They announced they were dating in March - just two months after Kaz split from Josh Denzel.

Josh seemingly threw shade at his ex when he commented under a quote on Instagram which said, 'Girls that move on before it’s been 3 years after a break up.'

Underneath the photo, Josh wrote, "Three years? How about three weeks?!"

Kaz then hit back and said, "Ppl move so brave after they’ve blocked you."

Theo and Kaz then went on to date until February 2020 but it wasn't meant to be and he confirmed their split on FUBAR Radio.

"I don't wanna say too much but I'm gonna say, people these days and love these days, it's confusing. It's a tricky hard world.

"I feel like with us, I kinda gave it my everything and it feels a bit under appreciated. It's a bit crazy at the moment. I don't know what to call it. What's the right way to say it? I got slinged!"

Who does Theo Campbell have a baby with?

In February 2021, Theo announced that he'd become a dad after welcoming a baby with influencer Sapphire Yhnell.

It appears that Theo and Sapphire are no longer together because on the earlier radio station, he said, "My baby, he lives in Wales and I live in London. So on Sundays I have to travel 130 miles, about two hours.

"I don’t have a life! I’m always getting invited places. My life now, like today, there’s always something on the cusp. I’m there [at his tattoo shop] all the time, I do Wednesday to Sunday."

How did Theo Campbell lose his eyesight?

During a holiday in Ibiza, Theo was hit with a Champagne cork that flew into his eye and left him blind.

Did Theo Campbell win The Challenge?

He didn't win the show but he reportedly bagged £200k after coming second place.

What is Theo Campbell doing now?

After finding fame in 2017, Theo has appeared on Ex on The Beach, The Challenge and now he's an online coach.
