Love Island's Harry Cooksley has silenced the sceptics on his first day back from Majorca.

The footballer, who entered the ITV villa on the first day and made it to the final, secured second place alongside Shakira Khan, 22.

Now, the 30-year-old reality star has taken to TikTok to give fans a glimpse into his personal life. In a vlog-style video posted on 8 August, Harry documented his journey from Spain, which began at the crack of dawn.

Once back home, the athlete made a beeline for a supermarket he fondly mentioned during his time in the villa.

"This whole experience has been wild and I've been wondering what life's gonna be like after. It is gonna be so weird," he muses in the clip, reports OK!.

He added: "I proved some of the doubters wrong, I headed straight to Aldi to pick up the essentials."

Harry included a brief snippet from Love Island where he and Shakira pondered post-fame life, with Shakira expressing worries about their ability to carry out mundane tasks like shopping at Aldi.

This heartfelt chat occurred as the duo were reigniting their romance, following Harry's initial partnership with fellow original Islander Helena Ford.

In another part of the now-viral video, Harry reveals that he also paid a visit to his mother during his first days back home.

"It's been a bit odd being away from her these past few months. We're thick as thieves, I see her every week, so it was a treat to catch up and dish the dirt on Island life," he added.

The ITV heartthrob had quite the rollercoaster ride on the dating programme. He coupled up with Shakira just days into the show, but their love story hit the rocks when he set his sights on Helena.

Caught in a frustrating love triangle, the 22-year-old decided to cut ties with Harry, leaving him paired with Helena for the bulk of the series.

However, the plot thickened when Shakira confessed she still carried a torch for Harry.

Despite only rekindling their romance days before the grand finale, Harry and Shakira clinched the runner-up spot, bagging 26% of the public vote.
