As he took to the stage, Liam said: 'I've got something I want to say. I've been told I need to go big or go home. You blew me away with your flawless looks, piercing blue eyes, infectious smile and amazing personality that draws me to you...   

'It's the way you make me smile without even saying anything that brings me back for more. I didn't expect to come to Love Island and find a potential soulmate so early on but I've found that and so much more in you.

With some help from the boys, Liam decided to send a text to Millie with a picture of the pair of them. And before bed, leaves her a note under her pillow.

During Millie's chat the previous day with Lillie, the latter revealed: '[As] soon as I got there we could sense a strong connection, and it was 100% reciprocated, no matter what he's said. It was 50/50, equal. If anything he was probably 60% pushing it more.   

'It was instantly flirty from the beginning. A sense of like, talking about bed situations, and that's when I was like, "oh does that mean I'm in your bed tonight?" and he was like, "yeah definitely".' 

Millie then asked: 'Straight away there wasn't even a question about sleeping outside?' to which Lillie replied: 'No.'

Millie went on: 'He said there was no cuddles at night time.'
