LOVE Island's Jessie Wynter has revealed that she'd get engaged to boyfriend Will Young 'right now' - and that they are on the hunt for their own house away from the farm in Buckinghamshire.
Aussie star Jessie, 27, and Will, 25, have gone from strength to strength since meeting on the ITV2 dating show at the start of 2023.

Despite being from other ends of the world, the loved-up couple have made it work over the past year and are stronger than ever.
Jessie stayed in the UK after their stint on Love Island in South Africa, which was then followed by Will heading down under for a visit, and now Jessie is back in England.
Now the pair are living together away from Will's farm - and are keen to buy their own place AND get married, but they will have to prioritise what is more important to them.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Jessie told us: "We're now living on our own, and we're hopefully looking to buy a house together."

The couple are keen to move somewhere that neither of them have never lived before so that they can experience it together.
Jessie added: "So after we spent a bit of time in Australia, Will bless him, he's worked and lived on the farm his whole life.
"He went to Australia, and I showed him a bit of city life in Sydney, and he actually really liked it.
"So that's kind of opened our eyes up to.... We were actually thinking we might move up to Manchester so he can experience a little bit of city life.

"The way we see it is my home in the country in Tasmania is always gonna be there. Will's home in the farm is always going to be there.
"So we're thinking about both doing something out of our comfort zones and moving to a whole new city and kind of experiencing that all together.

"We're thinking Manchester or close to London...
"But it just kind of depends where the dream property comes up, I guess."
However the beauty confessed that finding a property that they both want has been "a lot harder" than she initially thought.
Jessie confessed: "Our house hunting stuff was all put on hold because we've just been doing lambing season here on Will's farm.

"It's chaotic. For three weeks straight, he was waking up at 6 am and finishing at 7/8 pm.
"Then I was working on the farm with him and then I went off to Coachella. I've just got back.
"So we put on our like house hunting on hold for about a month. But we're getting back into that."
MARRIAGE TALKS
Jessie and Will are also keen to tick off other milestones in their relationship - including tying the knot.
"I think if we could, we would be engaged right now. We'd be having a wedding, but at the moment, like we've just got so many other things to navigate at the moment.

"So Will is really good at fake proposing, so I think he's definitely got it on his mind," Jessie told us.
"We definitely do speak about marriage, and getting engaged and everything a lot.
"I think if we could, we would be engaged right now. We'd be having a wedding, but at the moment, like we've just got so many other things to navigate at the moment.
"So that's not the top of my priorities.
"And that something that is actually really fun - my parents actually recently got engaged, so I'm actually plan their wedding.
"I said to Will let's see how I plan their wedding..."
Jessie originally shot to fame on the second series of Love Island Australia in 2019.
Since her stint on the UK version last year, the former personal trainer has managed to use her new found fame to raise awareness for some important topics.
Last year the reality star revealed that she was spiked while out with Will in Chicago.
Now Jessie is an ambassador for Stamp Out Spiking - and wants people to start speaking out if it has ever happened to them.
Speaking about their work, Jessie explained: "We are doing as much research as we can to kind of get the information because I think there's a bit of a gap in the system.
"We've put up some surveys and we've got some really interesting statistics, like 87% people who have been spiked have left it unreported.
"Most people between the ages of 18 and 24 have either experienced it or witnessed it or know someone who has.
"So it's like we're getting all these these statistics that we can kind of go forward and put out on the table and let people know that this is a real thing.
"This is a real issue, and we're working as hard as we can to get changed.
"But it is a long process.
"We can do it in between, is continue to raise awareness and comfort anyone that has been through those similar things.
