Love Island's Liberty Poole throws blow-out birthday party but ex Jake doesn't show

Liberty Poole celebrated her 22nd birthday in style with a star-studded party at a swanky rooftop bar in London.

The Love Island babe was joined by her co-stars including Lucinda Stafford, Kaz Kamwi, Sharon Gaffka, Priya Gopaldas and Abigail Rawlings as they partied the night away at Jin Bo Law in Aldgate.

However, one person who didn't show up for the party was Liberty's ex Jake Cornish, who she dumped just days before the final.

The birthday girl looked stunning in a low-cut shimmery silver top, which she teamed with a snakeskin miniskirt and a pair of black strappy stilettos.

She wore her blonde locks up in a high ponytail and accessorised with a delicate silver necklace.

Liberty worked the cameras like a pro as she posed for photos on the bar's outdoor terrace area with her hand on her hip.

The space was decorated with a huge balloon and flower arch and a giant light-up number 22.

Lucinda looked glam in a black minidress and matching high heels, wearing her long blonde locks straight down her front.

She joined Liberty behind the bar as the duo mixed cocktails together.

Kaz wowed in a strapless white mini-dress with a ruffled front, which she teamed with matching heels and a black bag she wore on her shoulder.

Sharon sported an eye-catching red crop top and trousers set, with her top cut high on the bottom, drawing attention to her underboob.

She paired the risqué outfit with strappy heels, a gold bracelet and matching ring.

Fellow Love Island stars Lillie Haynes, Georgia Townend, Chloe Burrows, Hugo Hammond, Matt McNabb, Faye Winter, Tyler Cruickshank, Brad McClelland and Teddy Soares were also among the guests.

The party was well-documented on the Islanders' Instagram accounts, with Liberty appearing to have a ball.

The reality TV star had a huge grin on her face as she danced and posed for photos with her guests.

Guests were seen dancing to Justin Bieber, necking shots and singing Happy Birthday to Liberty.

Her party comes after Liberty dramatically quit Love Island just days before the final.

Liberty and her ex-boyfriend Jake Cornish walked away from the villa after breaking up.

She had told Jake she didn't think they were right for each other, and that she felt as though he did not love her for who she was.

While Jake was baffled by her decision at first, they then made a mutual choice to leave the show together.

It was the first time a major split had happened so close to a Love Island final.

Liberty said: "We've just both come to the conclusion that obviously that in this moment in time, it's best for us to go our separate ways."

Jake added: "Right now, our heads are just... yeah..." with Liberty saying: "We're just not getting on."

Liberty said they did not want to take up a place around strong couples in the final, or drain the life out of the villa by sticking around amid their heartache.
