I had a couple of glasses of wine and was
sick!’ says Cara, 29. ‘It was the first time I’ve
ever taken Cara home. It’s usually the other
way round!’ laughs Nathan, 27. ‘But it was
the perfect honeymoon. We went with Jet2
and they really looked after us and ensured
everything went smoothly.’
Over the past few weeks, the pair have
spent plenty of time reminiscing about their
wedding day, and they say they wouldn’t
change a thing. ‘I couldn’t have asked for
a better wedding,’ says Nathan of their
ceremony on June 28 at the picturesque
Preston Court in Canterbury.
‘We watched our wedding video back last
week and I had a massive lump in my throat.’
Cara adds: ‘It was the best day. As we didn’t
get married abroad, we’ll go away when we
renew our vows in ten years and have a day
exactly like our wedding.’
And while the pair both had Botox ahead
of their wedding, Nathan tells OK! there’s
another procedure he’s got his eye on. ‘I
have been thinking about getting a hair
transplant. I want a fuller hairline, I’m quite
conscious of it. I’m going to have a proper
look into it because I don’t want to regret
it,’ he says. ‘I don’t think he needs it. He’s
got such lovely thick hair, but if it makes him
happy...’ adds Cara.
She continues: ‘Once I was offered
vaginal reconstruction for free at an event. I
was thinking, I know I’ve just had a baby but
I don’t need that done! Nathan has been
asked if he wanted his nose done, too. I’ve
had Botox, fillers and we’ve had veneers,but that’s it. There’s a
pressure in this industry to
look a certain way so you
have to be careful and really
research things. I think
we’ve always been quite
sensible about it. Some
people are so desperate
for perfection.’
Cara and Nathan won
Love Island back in 2016,
and next week the winners
of this year’s series will be
announced. ‘I still think
Molly-Mae [Hague] and
Tommy [Fury] will win, but
Ovie [Soko] should just
win it by himself! Ovie has saved the show,’
Nathan says, adding: ‘There was no one
with any personality or banter until he came
in. You spend a long time in that villa so
you have to make things happen. I used to
play pranks on everyone. I used to draw on
people’s faces when they were napping and
I put cling film on the toilet. One of the girls
ended up weeing all over herself!’
Nathan continues of
this year’s Islanders: ‘I’m
not buying into Maura
[Higgins] and Curtis
[Pritchard] one bit. I don’t
think they’re into each
other.’ Cara adds: ‘I can’t
put my finger on it but I
don’t trust Curtis. I don’t
think he’s being himself. It’s cringe when
he talks about sex. I think
him and Maura say things
for a reaction.’
Offering advice to this
year’s contestants, the
pair say the key to their
relationship surviving is
trust. ‘I trust Cara with mylife. She’s the first partner
I’ve had that we could
leave each other to
go on a night out and
we’d have no worries,’
explains Nathan. Cara
adds: ‘You’ve got to have
a good sex life, too.’
‘Child number
two pending!’ laughs
Nathan, adding: ‘I
think it was all the
wedding excitement
and being able to have
time to ourselves.’
Cara continues: ‘It’s
no secret that we had
sex in the villa but I don’t think having sex
on TV affected our careers. Yes Fred will
probably get some grief for it at school and
my dad and brother weren’t too happy, but
now we’re married with a child – it wasn’t a
random, one-off thing!’
Thoughts have definitely turned to
expanding their family, with Cara telling OK!:
‘We’d like a big family. We want two close
together and then we’ll
wait until they’ve gone to
school and then have a
third. If we have another
boy we would try for a
third and then hopefully
have a girl.’ Nathan
adds: ‘I’d be happy with
a boy and a girl but if
Cara wants a third, I will have a third! I like
the name Mila for a girl. Mila Massey sounds
like a Hollywood star!’
