Love Island’s Jessy Potts sizzles in a plunging lace catsuit as she arrives for night out separately to boyfriend Joey Essex – after fake romance claims

Love Island’s Jessy Potts headed to Mayfair restaurant Sheesh with her boyfriend Joey Essex for a night out on Wednesday.

The couple, who met on the final episode of the ITV2 dating show, are fighting accusations their romance is fake, despite insisting they were ‘real’ after the series ended.

But they attended the group night with their fellow Love Island student separately, with Jessy, 25, commanding attention in a plunging black lace catsuit.

The racy look accentuated her generous figure and the sheer fabric left little to the imagination.

She completed the outfit with a pair of strappy heels and a chic cropped blazer, while styling her long blonde locks in loose waves.

Meanwhile, former TOWIE star Joey, 34, opted for an all-leather look and wore dark sunglasses.

This comes after Joey and Jessy were accused of faking their romance following their time in the Love Island villa, despite claiming it was a ‘real’ romance.

After missing out on a place in the ITV2 final and being judged ‘least compatible’, the pair returned to the UK and attended numerous events separately.

While Joey reportedly raked in £250,000 from a club tour, Jessy went partying with friends and to film premieres.

The couple have appeared together in television and magazine interviews, with Joey hinting at the idea of ​​starting a family. However, they have not appeared on each other’s Instagram pages.

Tongues were further loosened when Joey recently revealed on This Morning that he was considering moving to the US in a bid to make a name for himself there.

After the revelation, fans were furious on Reddit, according to The sunin which someone wrote: ‘He never considered for a moment that Jessy might or might not come with him to America – and frankly I don’t think he would care if she did’.

While another said: ‘How is Jessy even going to America? Is she going to America?’

MailOnline has contacted Jessy and Joey’s representatives for comment.

The former TOWIE star caused a stir when he became the first celebrity contestant to enter the villa.

Despite being branded a ‘pantomime villain’ and known for his bachelor antics, he later claimed he was in a relationship with ‘exclusive girlfriend’ Jessy.

Joey claims the couple has already started thinking about their future, despite not saying the ‘L’ word to each other yet.

Narrate OK! Magazine: ‘We’ve already talked about children.’

“We both want a big family. But we’re having a bit of a fight at the moment. She wants four, I want eight.

‘Imagine how great that would be? I’m ready. I’d do it tomorrow. Maybe even tonight!’.

But a source recently said: ‘There’s a lot of interest in the US, and that was even before Love Island, so that’s his next move after he’s had some time off.

‘Joey would like to move his career to the United States and make a name for himself there, as the reality market there offers some fresh and exciting options.

“They love the British, but they’ve never met anyone like Joey. So there’s a big chance he can conquer America too.”

The source added: ‘His team Neon Management have been inundated with magazine cover photoshoots and podcast interviews since Love Island, plus more meetings with Netflix, so Joey is more in demand than ever.’

Joey’s popularity doesn’t seem to have been affected by the negative headlines that have surrounded his Love Island, with him being accused of being mean to his ex-girlfriend Grace Jackson and ‘picking fights’ in the villa.

But after his departure, Joey said he deliberately caused a stir, as the show’s bosses encouraged him to lean on his reality TV experience and create as much drama as possible. He admitted he was a “plant” for the show.

He said during an appearance on This Morning: ‘Everyone is encouraged to stir, the difference with me is I don’t hesitate… I know what the producers want!’

‘Some didn’t want to go out there and upset people and I respect that, but the difference with me, with my 13 years of experience, is that I know what to do and I did it.’

Joey admitted he played the ‘pantomime villain’, adding: ‘I have no regrets, you know how it is, and I played the pantomime villain. I did what I had to do, I wanted to have fun and find love and I found Jessy.’

When asked if they had said the “love” word to each other yet, Jessy said, “We don’t want to rush things.”

Despite the criticism, Joey said he wanted people to focus on him and his new flame as a couple and ignore all the fuss around them, stressing that he was “genuine” during his time in the villa.

He added that neither had played a match and that neither saw any red flags despite having ‘tested each other’.

He said: ‘We took our time, had fun and enjoyed each other’s company. We weren’t jumping to make decisions because the next bomb was coming, or because it was Casa Amor, we did things our way. We played it correctly. We didn’t do it to win. We just wanted to be together.’

Model and influencer Jessy told the magazine that she is unfazed by the skepticism surrounding Joey’s actions and that she has the full support of her friends and family.

She said her family trusts her to see beyond the headlines and that she has chosen someone nice, adding that they already like the Essex-born reality star.

She added that she was not impressed by Joey’s wandering gaze, explaining that he is a seasoned celebrity and she has complete confidence that he will not fall victim to other girls’ designs.
