Just five months ago, Paige Turley and her now boyfriend Finn Tapp won the first-ever winter series of Love Island, with the pair scooping £50,000.
Since then, the 22-year-old has bought a flat in Manchester with Finn, 20, after spending lockdown together at her family home in West Lothian. And that’s not all. Paige’s career is on the up as she is set to release a new single, a cover of Artful Dodger’s Movin’ Too Fast in collaboration with The House & Garage Orchestra.
The reality star, who made it to the semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent in 2012, says her dreams of becoming a singer have come true after signing a record deal with New State Music. “I’m just so excited,” she tells us. “It’s more than I could have imagined and the orchestra is so talented. Each musician comes from different backgrounds, so being able to come together and recreate this classic tune is exciting. I just want to play live now!”
Here, Paige tells us how her relationship with Finn is going, how she managed to land a record deal and the artists she would love to collaborate with…
Hi Paige! How are you and Finn finding your new flat?
It’s amazing – we’ve settled down really well. We don’t know where anything is, so we’re still using Google maps to get about, but we’re excited for things to start opening up and having a nice date night.
Are you sharing housework duties?
I’m actually pleasantly surprised. He’s been really good. Finn tends to take a lot of the cooking on.
Does he have any annoying habits?
