Some people have a knack for making you feel good and Gabby Allen’s one of them. The Love Island and Celebrity Big Brother star has been spreading positivity with her daily live workouts, and, as we chat over the phone, her warm energy really is infectious.

Right now, she’s in a really good place, both emotionally and quite literally, having picked up the keys to her gorgeous new south London home. With lockdown restrictions now eased to allow house moves, Gabby is finally settled in the two-bedroom flat with her mum Paula, who she spent the previous few weeks with. Paula is an interior designer and has added a few finishing touches to the flat, painting the front door a fetching shade of fuchsia.

The pair are also isolating with their “cute but annoying” Cavapoo puppy Bruce.

Personal trainer Gabby, 28, ended her year-long romance with X Factor winner Myles Stephenson last August, after he was caught exchanging flirty text messages with other women. When we speak, Gabby clears up recent reports that she’s dating model and former Ex On The Beach star Brandon Myers.

“That’s not true,” she tells OK!. “He’s the loveliest person and a really good friend of mine, but that’s all it is. Being single right now is a really positive thing for me.”

Gabby has just launched her Lockdown Shape Up plan and is hoping to start her own fitness retreats later this year. Here, while sharing photos of her new home, she opens up about dealing with bouts of anxiety, having imposter syndrome and the next Love Island baby…

It’s good to see you looking so happy and confident, Gabby…
