Emma, now an influencer with 300k followers online, also counts Burnley FC’s Nathan Redmond as an ex.

But the one-time WAG now has her eyes set on Towie star Joey Essex, 33, who is also looking for love in the ITV2 villa.

The pair share history having met in Dubai last year.

A source said: “Emma has moved in celebrity circles for years now, has a lot of friends in the industry and through showbiz parties.

“She met Jack on the Manchester party scene as well as her ex Nathan. She and the models for Boohoo are all based up there and are regularly out with the City and United teams.

“She has dated a number of high-profile men and the attention, like she experienced after her photo with Jack circulated, doesn’t phase her.

“Emma also appeared on Channel 4 reality TV show Shipwrecked in 2019 so has her head screwed on.”

Attacking midfielder Jack is licking his wounds after he failed to make the cut for England’s Euro 2024 squad.

After jetting on holiday he has now returned to City’s academy three weeks before pre-season officially begins.

Meanwhile Emma is part of Love Island’s Casa Amor cast, who are tasked with tempting the original line-up of men to stray from their partners as a “relationship test”.

Joey is currently juggling another ex – Grace Jackson, who he met in Ibiza last year – with another blonde.
