Love Island winner Jess Harding flashes her midriff in a crop top and cargo pants as she hits the town in Manchester

Love Island winner Jess Harding put on a stylish show as she enjoyed a night out at Sakku Samba restaurant in Manchester on Wednesday.

The beauty salon owner, 22, who won the ITV show with now-boyfriend Sammy Root, 22, looked sensational in a black crop top and cargo trousers.

The reality star looked comfortable in a pair of black and red Nike sneakers, teamed with a black shoulder bag and silver stud earrings.

Jess’ appearance comes after she revealed she recently underwent a ‘tummy tuck’ procedure after arriving in the Love Island villa.

The beautician claimed she was just ‘eating and not moving’ during her time on the ITV2 dating show this summer.

During a Q&A in August, a fan admitted that Jess “looked fantastic” when they asked if she had lost weight.

‘No, I arrived while I was in the villa. We were just eating and not walking around, we were just sitting in the sun,” Jess laughed.

In another video, she revealed she had a “tummy tuck” as she walked her followers through the process.

The clip showed Jess lying with a belt and machine wrapped around her stomach.

In August, Jess hit back at critics after the dress she wore in the final came under fire, despite winning over audiences with her romance and personality.

After being confronted with a slew of cruel comments about the white slip dress with draped neckline, she has now spoken out about the insults, saying: ‘It wasn’t very nice to read but I think I’ll be there for the rest of the time looked good. Love Island time…

‘I don’t lose sleep over it. The dress was pleated at the side. It didn’t fit quite right on my breasts, which made me look bigger than I am. I actually have a small waist. But you can’t have boobs and an ass and no hips.’

Jumps to his girlfriend’s defense, in their joint interview with OK! Sammy insisted he “loved” Jess’ figure and her natural beauty.

The winner said firmly: ‘All the way through Love Island I told Jess that I think she’s so beautiful when she’s completely natural. I love everything about Jess’s figure – I’ve made that very clear.’

Jess continued: ‘To be honest, I’ve heard there’s been all these negative comments, but I haven’t really seen anything, so I’m quite happy…

“I’m sure if I went fishing for the negativity it would be there, but the support is crazy. I actually didn’t realize how much people love me – remember that, Sammy!’
