A pal said: “Marcus and Grace have been quietly spending time together and he has whisked her on numerous dates around Cheshire.

“They get on really well and have lots in common.”

Grace appeared in the Love Island villa during the summer — where she hooked up with Towie star Joey, 34.

It later emerged that she and Joey had enjoyed a holiday romance together the year before they had appeared on the ITV show.

Meanwhile, Rashford has been single since splitting with childhood sweetheart Lucia Loi in the summer of 2023.
