Love Island couple Ellie Chadwick and Finley Maddock move to Essex

Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 13 Nov, 14:28 · Archive

Love Island couple Ellie Chadwick and Finley Maddock have announced they have relocated to Essex, confirming the move via an Instagram post responding to a question about where they are now living.

The pair met during the 2026 series of Love Island. Finley entered the villa as a bombshell and developed a connection with Scottish reality star Ellie, who had previously explored relationships with fellow Islanders Aidan Murphy and Tommy Murphy. Their early relationship was tested when Finley showed interest in bombshell Elicia Bailey and kissed her, though he later reconciled with Ellie.

Their time on the ITV dating show ended when Finley was dumped from the villa by his fellow Islanders. Ellie, who had been voted the public's favourite girl, then chose to quit the programme and leave with him.

Following their exit from Love Island, the couple announced plans to move to London to prevent having a long-distance relationship, having previously been based in Scotland and Wales respectively. They confirmed in September that they had officially become boyfriend and girlfriend, sharing the announcement with their Instagram followers.

The couple has now moved their plans forward and relocated to Essex instead of London.
