Adding the image to Instagram, the 20-year-old wrote next to it: “Killed it last night! @ritaora #phoenixtour”

And it wasn’t long before Wes’s friends and fans replied with their thoughts on the potential coupling.

Love Island host Caroline Flack wrote: “Awwww Wes and Rita”

While his fellow Villa castmate Josh Denzel replied with a series of zipped mouth emojis, appearing to indicate he couldn’t say anything.

Clocking up over 70,000 likes in five hours, some of his 1.6million followers commented that they thought they made a good couple.

With one die-hard fan even remembering Wes said Rita was his “crush” in his Love Island intro.

The 20-year-old looked pleased with himself as he sat next to pop princess Rita on a sofa after her gig tonight.

Dressed casually in a black T-shirt, trousers and trainers, Wes finished his look with a blue baseball cap that he wore back to front and several gold chains.

Sat snuggled into him, Rita looked relaxed in a brightly coloured tie-dyed all in one still wearing her stage make-up and hair.

The Sun Online has contacted Wes and Rita’s reps for comment.
