The blonde bombshell who won the contest in 2023 spent most of her time at the event’s VIP afterparty tucked away in a booth with the man.

Jess split from her ex just two months ago and has had a ‘hot girl summer’ single life since then
Whilst Jess’ pals, including her co-stars could be seen partying up a storm on the dancefloor, she opted to head to a seated area to chat to the mystery individual.
Partygoers told The Sun how she was left deep in conversation with the handsome fella as they appeared to get very cosy.
An onlooker told The Sun: “Jess spent most of her time at the A-list afterparty with the mystery man.
“They placed themselves down in one of the private booths and it was clear that they only had eyes for each other.
“Jess and the man could be seen sharing a laugh and a joke with each other and it was obvious she had no interest in mingling with the other stars at the celeb-packed bash.
“At one point her co-star and pal sat at the table with them for a catch-up but quickly went back to dancing to give Jess some more alone time with the mystery guy.”
At one point, onlookers told how they had gotten very close to one another with Jess unable to stop looking into his eyes.
The Sun has contacted a representative for Jess Harding for comment.
Jess has been embracing single life
We told how she had called it quits with her boyfriend Ben back in July of this year.
The 24-year-old kept her Ben largely out of the spotlight but did share snaps of them on her .
It is understood that they split due to their different lifestyles with Jess’ pal Whitney once again stepping in to support the star amid the ordeal as well as helping her to move on.
A source said of Jess and Ben’s split in July: “Jess and Ben struggled to make it work after a while because they lead such different lives.
“He is a carpenter and she is an influencer – heading here, there and everywhere for work.
“They are both very career focused and felt it was better to concentrate on their careers.
“Jess has been distracting herself in and has bonded with Whitney more than ever. They are both single and enjoying a hot girl summer.”
Before Ben, Jess dated after they met on Love Island.
They clinched a shock victory but did not last and split just months after leaving Majorca together.
