It’s official: Jen Beattie, Amber Rose Gill’s girlfriend, and everyone’s favorite Love Islander “hard-launched” their relationship as they walked the red carpet together on March 15 for BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend Launch Party. The 25-year-old gave her fans a hint—or “soft launch”—of her relationship with the 31-year-old Arsenal footballer on her Instagram page before their first public appearance together at the event.
The “Love Island” star complemented her cream corset top and cut-out chaps ensemble with a matching purse, a pair of open-toe platform heels, and a pair of black heels. And we’d be lying if we said we weren’t a little envious of her sense of style.
In addition to wearing her hair in her signature curly style and glowing as she cuddled up to her Scottish football player beau, Gill also opted for the super popular “glossy skin” look. Beattie sported a simple outfit consisting of a black T-shirt, wide-leg ripped jeans, and a set of all-black Nike Dunk sneakers.
The 2019 “Love Island” winner took to Instagram at the beginning of March to share memories from the previous month after previously teasing her relationship on social media. She captioned a photo of an intimate meal out with her boyfriend, holding hands, and tagging Beattie in the post, “February you were cute jeans,” on her photo gallery. The image that appeared next was a gorgeous bouquet of red and pink roses, and it doesn’t take much to see why.
We’re thrilled that Gill and Beattie have confirmed their relationship, but the season five winner’s journey of coming out as a member of the LGBTQ+ community wasn’t always plain-sailing. In fact, the reality star “accidentally” came out on Twitter. In July 2022, the influencer revealed that she’d “switched teams” whilst discussing the questionable behaviour from men on last year’s series of “Love Island”. She tweeted, “Switching teams was the best decision I made in my life,” and followed it up with, “Watching men makes me feel ill, I couldn’t put myself through it again.”
Gill confirmed that a string of tweets weren’t quite how she planned to come out, telling Access All Areas on FUBAR Radio: “Accidentally, yeah. I remember looking at it [the tweet] and thinking, ‘S**t, what have I said?’” But she soon realised that her tweets were “the typical way” she would have made the announcement, and we’re so happy that Gill is able to live her most authentic life.
