LOVE Island's Haris reveals secret relationship conversation with Olivia moments before he left that viewers never heard
Viewers saw Haris grafting Olivia from day one and they eventually coupled up when Olivia, 27, saved him from elimination.
However, the ring girl and actress appeared to be closed off to a romantic relationship - until recently.
Haris spoke about Olivia in his exit interview after being dumped from the villa.
The star, from Doncaster, said: "It was only just getting good! From the get-go me and her had mutual attraction to each other.
"When we coupled up I felt we were getting closer than we were at the start.

"She’s a very good looking girl, her energy, the way she presented herself, the flirting, the funny side
to her, she was a nice girl as well."
Haris also spoke about a conversation that viewers didn't get to see after he was picked to leave the villa.
He said: "We had a conversation just after the decision was made.
"You never know what could happen. Never say never."
He continued: "I would expect Olivia to get to know people that are coming through. If there’s new people coming through, just to be true to herself."

Haris also said he understood why he was picked to leave out of the three boys at risk.
"Standing up there I did see I was the most vulnerable out of the two lads I was with. Tom’s good with Zara, Kai is good with Tanyel," he said.
"Aaron did take Olivia for a date and he said it sort of went well. He’s not going to look at it and think, ‘I’ll keep Haris in for a friendship’.
"He’s most likely going to get to know Olivia. Whatever’s meant to be will be."
The TV salesman was sensationally forced out of the villa hours after The Sun revealed footage of him embroiled in a violent street brawl.
And Haris also broke his silence and defended his actions in the tape.
He said: “I’m devastated that this video has been seen, it’s not a reflection of my character.
“I’m not someone that goes looking for fights and I didn’t want to be in that situation. This was a heat of the moment thing.
“The video doesn’t show everything that happened. Afterwards we met up and we cleared the air; we’ve shaken hands and we get along now.
