‘We need each other’: Lucy Mecklenburgh kisses beau Ryan Thomas for the FIRST time on Celebrity Island… as the hunk is mercilessly mocked for exaggerated reaction to leg cramp

They confirmed their romance a month ago during a cosy date at Wimbledon.

But viewers of Celebrity Island with Bear Grylls have been treated to the moment Lucy Meckleburgh and Ryan Thomas shared their first kiss after they met on the show in April.

In a teaser clip for the next episode, the former TOWIE star, 26, can be seen leaning in for an intimate kiss with the Corrie hunk, 33, as they get saucy on a beach.
