A Cornwall barber turned Love Island star has been inundated with love from fans after returning home from the All Stars series three.<\/p>\n
Konnor Ewudzi, who was also on Love Island Season 11, was reportedly \u201chounded\u201d in a bar after enjoying a night out in Newquay<\/a> – and he’s even shown off beautiful Watergate Bay in his latest snaps.<\/p>\n Although the hunk didn\u2019t make a long-lasting connection on the show, it seems the 30-year-old is getting plenty of attention in his hometown.<\/p>\n Konnor was spotted being mobbed by fans in his local bar, Sailors in Newquay, Cornwall, as reported by What\u2019s The Jam.<\/a><\/p>\n The Love Islander, who returned to his work as a barber after his first stint on the show in 2024, allegedly visited the bar on Sunday (15 Feb).<\/p>\n Since leaving the villa, Konnor has received huge attention online with fans swooning over his posts. In one of his latest topless snaps, fans even labelled him a \u201cthirst trap\u201d.<\/p>\n Konnor, who works at St Austell<\/a> Barbershop and sees clients travel miles for his services<\/a>, lasted 17 days in the villa. Entering on day three as a bombshell, he was dumped with Imani Wheeler, alongside Curtis Pritchard and Kyra Lizama.<\/p>\n One concerned fan said: \u201cYou getting hounded in Sailors last night, I felt for you, maybe you loved it \u2013 either way hope it was a good night.\u201d<\/p>\n One person added: \u201cKonnor with the thirst traps.\u201d<\/p>\n Another person said: \u201cLoved you on Love Island this season, you are the sweetest man and a complete gentleman. \u201cI hope you find the sweetest woman.\u201d One other person said: \u201cLucky to live here aren\u2019t we.\u201d Another added: \u201cBest place with the nicest guy.\u201d<\/p>\n In another post, Konnor was pictured enjoying a coffee looking out at the gorgeous view of Watergate Bay. He captioned the photographs: “Can’t disturb my peace.”<\/p>\n Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n Many fans gushed about how they “love Cornwall”, with others pointing out that they had spotted him.<\/p>\n One said: “Probably one of the most beautiful places in the country.” Another added: “Lucky to live here aren\u2019t we (heart eyes emoji).”<\/p>\n Konnor recently revealed how he got into barbering – and even fellow islanders have said he was responsible for making sure they looked smart.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cI bought a pair of clippers when I moved abroad to do a summer season as a holiday rep. My job was commission-based, so to create another revenue stream, I told people I worked with that I could cut their hair while they were on holiday.\u201d<\/p>\n Now based in Cornwall, Fresha says Konnor is one of the few barbers in the South West specialising in afro-textured hair, which means clients “travel miles” to see him.<\/p>\n \u201cAll the local guys of colour do tend to come to me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cOver the years, it has been traditionally quite difficult to find a barber who caters to afro hair in Cornwall, so I feel proud that it has become a bit of a community connection.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Konnor’s fans have gushed about ‘beautiful’ Cornwall Katie Timms Head of Content 16:00, 21 Feb 2026 Love Island…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":780195,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3937],"tags":[77,383,204221,382,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-780194","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-love-island","10":"tag-newquay","11":"tag-tv","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116110779191809452","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/780194","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=780194"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/780194\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/780195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=780194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=780194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=780194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
