LOVE Island star Mike Boateng made his red carpet debut with his stunning fiancee last night, after revealing her for the first time.
The former Islander, who starred in the 2020 winter series, popped the question last Christmas, but has kept his partner’s appearance a secret until now.

The couple were seen beaming on the red carpet at last night’s MOBO Awards.
Although Mike is still yet to reveal her name, the former police officer turned reality star looked smitten as he showed her off at the prestigious event.
The pair looked every inch the happy couple as they smiled for the cameras.
Mike looked smart for the occasion in his black suit, while his wife-to-be looked stunning in an off the shoulder gown.
THE BIG PROPOSAL
Mike has kept his relationship largely private since going public with his future spouse last summer.
However, at Christmas the former Islander revealed he had popped the question to his mystery woman.
He shared pictures from the big life moment on Instagram along with an extract from Proverbs 16:3 that read: “Commit to the lord whatever you do and he will establish your plans.”
Mike asked her to be his wife by writing “will you marry me?” on a dessert plate.
The couple hugged after she said yes, and a final snap featured the future Mrs Boateng showing off her diamond ring while holding a huge bouquet of roses.
Mike’s pals congratulated the happy couple, with fellow Island Biggs Chris writing: “Jheeeez congratulations!!!”
Geordie Shore’s Nathan Henry said: “Congratulations [love heart emojis].”
Celebrity Big Brother legend Lateysha Grace said: “Awwwww congratulations both xxx.”
LOVE ISLAND JOURNEY
First appearing on our screens during series six, Mike found himself coupled up with four different women during his time on the show.
Arriving as one of the original cast members, he immediately paired up with Leanne Amaning.

He was then stolen by bombshell Jess Gale, before recoupling with Leanne and spending two weeks with her.
He then coupled up with Sophie Piper, before hooking up with Priscilla Anyabu, who he remained with him until they were dumped as a couple on day 41, just days before the final.
The pair remained together for 15 months, before splitting in July 2021.
In a chat on Capital XTRA, Mike said: “We’re not together anymore. It was never really a bad breakup, in fact it wasn’t a bad breakup at all, we just had a mature conversation.
“Lockdown was tough for us, didn’t really have a lot of space away from each other, we had a grown up conversation, like adults, saying in order to save our friendship, maybe we have to take time away as a couple,” he explained.
“You never know what’s going to happen in life, but for now yeah, Mike is single.”
Mike would later return to the franchise, appearing on spin-off series, Love Island Games in 2023, but only lasted three days.
