Love Island fans didn’t see this one coming. Layla Al-Momani, the Casa Amor star who stirred things up in 2023, is now off the market. The 30-year-old brand director shocked everyone by announcing her engagement. She did this in an Instagram carousel that finished with a stunning diamond.
Layla teased followers with the caption, “3, 2, Surprise!” Before the final swipe, her hand dripped with a huge double-pear and square-cut diamond on a thick gold band. The rock didn’t whisper romance. It screamed it.
The star, who dated singer Conor Maynard and claimed he wrote songs about their breakup, has kept her new man a secret. Not a single glimpse. No tags. No hints. Nothing. And that made fans lose it even more.
Love Island: Fellow Islanders Flood Her With Congrats
Layla’s comments section exploded immediately. Former islander Coco Lodge jumped in with, “Woooo Love you,” while Zara Deniz wrote, “Congratulations angel.”
Even Lydia Karakyriakou hyped her up with, “Yesssss!!! He put a ROCK on itttt.”
Layla was on the show for a short time, but she built a loyal fan base. They still want updates on her life.
Love Island: Her Villa Past Comes Back Into the Spotlight
Layla’s Love Island journey was brief but chaotic. She stirred up drama during the Casa Amor twist when Farmer Will Young kissed her. This happened while Jessie Wynter was away in the main villa. When the villas reunited, Will admitted, “I kissed Layla and I’m not going to lie it was really tough the few days after that. I knew I’d let you down and I’m so sorry.”
It became one of the most-talked-about moments of the season.
But now, Layla has clearly left villa heartbreak far behind. She’s moved on, leveled up, and found a partner she feels safe keeping private.
Love Island: The Conor Maynard Connection Doesn’t Go Away
Before the villa, Layla dated singer Conor Maynard, who has had a chaotic year of his own. She once said, “My ex is a famous singer. He wrote a few songs about me since we broke up.”
Conor’s 2021 split remained in the spotlight after The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton claimed he is the father of her baby daughter. Conor denied it, took a paternity test, and insisted he wasn’t the father. The public feud kept his name in headlines all year.
Meanwhile, Conor has since moved on too. He announced his engagement to his girlfriend Kitty Bertrand in September, writing, “Happy Birthday to my FIANCÉE. I’m ready to take on forever with you.”
Now both Conor and Layla have stepped into new chapters with shiny new rings.
Despite all the attention, Layla hasn’t revealed a single detail about her future husband. Not even a blurred shadow. No hand. No clue. Nothing.
