CAMILLA Thurlow found her Prince Charming on Love Island, and now they are expecting their first child.
But how old is the reality TV star – who is due to give birth in October 2020 – and when did she appear in the villa?
Who is Camilla Thurlow and how old is she?
Camilla Thurlow found fame as a singleton on ITV2’s dating reality show Love Island.
The 30-year-old is from Dumfries in Scotland, and is a former Miss Edinburgh winner.
Before appearing in the villa, Camilla described her job as explosive ordnance disposal specialist.
That means she travels to countries where war is ongoing and safely detonates bombs.
She has also worked for charity The Halo Trust – made famous in 1997 after a visit from the late Princess Diana.
Camilla is dating model Jamie Jewitt, 30, and on May 17, 2020, the couple announced they are expecting their first child.
When was Camilla on Love Island?
Camilla and Jamie were on Love Island in 2017.
In the first few weeks on the series, Camilla struggled to make a romantic connection with any of her fellow contestants.
She allowed herself to be wooed by Jonny Mitchell, only for him to dump her in favour of Tyla Carr.
Her spirits were briefly raised by new entrant Craig Lawson, who boosted her ego before coming on too strong and she had to put the brakes on.
Then Jamie entered the villa – and they immediately clicked before being crowned runners-up behind winners Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies, who split after four months.
Camilla, who previously had a fling with Prince Harry, exclusively told The Sun shortly afterwards that she was glad things hadn’t worked out with the royal because it paved the way for her finding true love.
Is Camilla Thurlow getting her own reality TV show?
In 2019, Camilla starred in her own reality TV show, entitled What Camilla Did Next, on ITVBe.
The one-off show hit screens on January 30, 2019, and explored her relationship with Jamie as well as showing her embarking on a solo mission to Cambodia to carry out charity work.
Shortly after leaving the villa, Camilla and Jamie visited a Greek refugee camp together.
In 2019, she opened up about her mental health battle that saw her consider taking her own life.
