Appearing on Francesca Allen and Elma Pazar’s podcast in August 2024, Love Island 2018 contestant Georgia Steel revealed for the first time that she had been sharing a room with The Only Way Is Essex star during lockdown. Her roommate was podcast host, Love Island 2019 contestant and TOWIE cast member Elma Pazar. The girls recalled their time together as fun and crazy, with Elma also helping Georgia through a tough breakup, something she herself spoke about with great gratitude.
After the trauma Georgia had endured over the past year, she found solace and protection in her home. She calls her home, which she bought in 2021, her safe place. This is a three-storey, four-bedroom house in Yorkshire that she showed to journalists. Although Georgia initially planned to buy a house in London, her parents convinced her to look at Yorkshire. It is where she grew up and where she feels comfortable. Plus, this way she can be close to her family.
Georgia admits that she dreamed of having her own home since she was 19, so it was important for her to achieve success and climb the career ladder. Each floor in her home is designated for a specific purpose: the bottom for “entertainment,” the second for “relaxation,” and the third for “her bedroom and master closet.”
But how Georgia managed to earn enough money for a house of this size and what she had to go through, we will tell you further.
Childhood and youth of Georgia
Georgia Steel was born on 28 March 1998 in York, North Yorkshire.
She attended the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts where she studied acting. Georgia had to take a break from her studies due to her participation in Love Island in 2018, but after the series ended, she returned to study at St. Mary’s University as an actress, graduating in August 2019.
Start of a career
Georgia Steel made her television debut in 2013, when she appeared in two episodes of the CBBC sitcom All at Sea, playing the role of Amanda Bryce.
In 2018, Steel became a contestant on the fourth series of Love Island, where she was paired with Sam Bird. Together, they finished eighth, leaving the show on day 47. Taking part in Love Island brought Georgia fame and became a springboard for her career.
Georgia’s successful journey on TV
2019 was a very fruitful year for Georgia. She became a contestant in the sixth series of the E4 dating reality series Celebs Go Dating, in the 5Star reality series Celebs on the Ranch, in the fifth series of the E4 series Celebrity Coach Trip. From 2019 to 2020, Steel starred in the MTV series Ex on the Beach: Peak of Love, where she met fellow cast member Callum Izzard. They soon began dating and Callum proposed to her. Despite being engaged, the couple split in April 2020, after seven months together.
In 2019, she was a participant in MTV Cribs and Celebrity Antiques Road Trip. Georgia appeared on Hey Tracey twice (in 2019 and 2020). In 2020, Steel starred in the TV special Love Island: What Happened Next?
In 2023, the spin-off show Love Island Games was released, on which Georgia lasted only three days.
That same year, the documentary The Football Fraudster was released, in which Georgia Steel became a contributor, sharing her sad personal experience.
Georgia’s whirlwind romances and exes
Georgia’s love life is a real drama! From the ITV2 reality series Love Island to the present day, she has had many relationships, some of which have turned into ugly scandals and shocked fans. And here’s everything you need to know!
Coming onto the dating show in 2018 to find love, the reality star first began a relationship with Josh Denzel, which seemed ideal. Although her first partner on the show was Niall Aslam, their idyll did not last long. However, when Josh Denzel returned from Casa Amor with Kaz Crossley, while Georgia remained faithful to him, it came as a complete surprise to everyone. Despite her shock, she was able to contain her emotions and therefore became one of the most favorite contestants for viewers, and fans nicknamed her the queen of the show.
After such a breakup, she tried to start a relationship with another Love islander – Jack Fowler, but it did not work out. Their date might have ended with a kiss, or it might not. Georgia eventually paired up with Sam Bird, and the couple left the villa together after they were dumped from the show. But this relationship also lasted only two months. Sam accused Georgia of cheating on him, citing it as one of the reasons they broke up. This seriously damaged her “loyal” status. Georgia said he had gotten it all wrong.
In 2019, Georgia met a conman named Medi Abalimba, posing as Miguel Johnson and claiming to be a US government agent. The fraudster managed to steal thousands of pounds from her by cloning her credit card without her knowledge. He also posed as former Chelsea striker Gael Kakuta. Georgia learned the truth about her lover when their photos together leaked online and her agent told her that he was not who she thought he was, but a convicted fraudster.
She met her new boyfriend while filming Ex on the Beach spin-off Peak of Love. It was Ibiza Weekender’s Callum Izzard, who even moved in with Georgia. They ended up getting engaged just one month after they started dating. But even though they got engaged after just one month later their relationship came to an end after seven months. Callum said they broke up because Georgia wasn’t as smart as him. It’s all because of the Covid-19 pandemic, when they spent three weeks together and realized that they didn’t even have anything to talk about.
In 2021, she was rumored to be dating footballer, Tyler Roberts, when they were spotted having dinner together. However, their relationship never went beyond rumors.
In October 2024, Georgia announced to her Instagram followers that she was with Premier League footballer Harry Clarke. In photos posted to the social network, the couple was pictured relaxing in Ibiza.
Love Island’s Georgia Steel’s dating history is truly amazing. But her fans are very happy that she was able to recover from all the previous traumatic relationships and hope that she’ll be happy with her new boyfriend.
Georgia Steel on All Stars and her future plans
In 2024, Georgia delighted us with her appearance on Love Island: All Stars, where she managed to reunite with Tom Clare, quarrel with Molly Smith and alternate between two guys. Many Love Island fans admit that Georgia made the show unforgettable. But during filming, Georgia received a lot of hate on social media for flirting with Callum Jones, who was not her partner, and then dating another contestant, Toby Aromolaran. Some comments even contained death threats, so the management team was forced to disable comments and delete the most violent ones. After the incident, Georgia did not use her social networks for some time and also had suicidal thoughts.
However it wasn’t only Georgia who received threats and nasty comments. Her younger brother also became a victim of disgruntled viewers and received personal messages from them. But it was her family that stood by Georgia during this period and helped her overcome all the difficulties.
The influencer also admitted that she felt responsible for what happened, as she had been very controversial on the show. But on the other hand, she believes that the show’s creators deliberately edited some of her scenes that way, because otherwise the viewers would have been bored to watch.
After All Stars ended, Georgia suddenly found out that Toby Aromolaran, her partner on the show and the guy she left the villa with, had announced their split. She said that the news took her by surprise and she struggled to come to terms with their breakup for a long time.
In 2024, she took part in the TV quiz show Pointless, appearing in Series 16, Episode 19.
Georgia also has big plans for 2025. She admits that she would like to take part in such projects as Dancing on Ice or Strictly Come Dancing. Her mother would also really like her to appear in The Traitors. In any case, Georgia is ready to return to the screen and most likely we will definitely see her in some iconic show very soon.
