Love Island’s Kai and Sanam Share Pre-Wedding Preparations Ahead of Their Big Day

Love Island winners Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan have shared a glimpse of their pre-wedding preparations as they get geared up to marry on Friday.

The couple, both 27, announced their engagement in April 2024, a year after meeting and falling in love in the Mallorca villa. 

And taking to their respective Instagram accounts on Thursday, the pair got themselves spruced up for their big day, with Kai seen getting a fresh trim for the occasion.

The P.E teacher shared snaps of himself in a barber’s chair as his pal gave him a hair cut, writing in his caption: ‘Trim completed. Now time to log off for a few days, enjoy life, be present and marry the love of my life.’

Meanwhile, social worker Sanam showed off her gorgeous wedding nails on her stories, with her fingernails adorned with pearl and sequin embellishments.

The beauty simply wrote alongside her snap: ‘Tomorrow’, alongside emojis of a bride and groom.

Last week, both the bride and groom to-be shared snaps of their hen and stag dos as they let their hair down with pals ahead of tying the knot.

Sanam jetted off to Ibiza with her pals and mum, where they got into the spirit of things of things with different them days including cowgirl, denim and disco.

Meanwhile, Kai and his friends had a grand time on their trip, larking around and drinking during their sporty-themed outing.

Kai also paid tribute to his future wife ahead of their wedding day as he got her name tattooed on his arm. 

Last month, Sanam gave an insight into wedding dress shopping as she prepares to marry her fiancé.

Trying on a number of dresses at Lotte Rose Bridal, in Bedford, Sanam shared some of her favourites in an Instagram update. 

Firstly, she tried on an off-the-shoulder lace gown before changing into an A-line dress with a corset top.

She captioned the update: ‘Part two of trying to find a wedding dress.

‘This shop was absolutely stunninnnggg! Let me know in the comments which style/shape you think suits me best!’ 

The couple met on the hit ITV show in March 2023 in the infamous Casa Amor, and came out as the winning couple.

The two lovebirds have been going strong ever since, and in April they announced their engagement as Kai got down on one knee while boating in Cambridge.

 During the romantic proposal in Cambridge, Sanam was dressed in bridal white while Kai opted for a matching coloured jacket.

They passionately kissed one another in another lovely photo before celebrating by popping champagne.

They recently revealed why their relationship has lasted longer than other couples’ relationships from the programme as they took a swipe at their co-stars. 

Speaking to OK! magazine, the couple explained the sacrifices they have had to make to maintain their relationship.

Kai said: ‘The difference between Love Island couples and ordinary couples is that there is a lot of pressure on the relationship when you leave the villa.

‘What makes Sanam and I different is that you have to decide what you want more: the fame that comes with the show, or the person you’re in a relationship with.

‘You get invited to parties but we wanted each other more than that lifestyle. We enjoy every moment together and we do things the other person is interested in, too.’

The couple are famously humble, with Sanam going straight back into social work after the show, instead of launching a career as an influencer.
