LOVE Island star Rob Rausch has gotten up close and personal with Call Her Daddy podcast host Alex Cooper.
Fans know Rob, 25, from Season 6 of Love Island and watched a connection grow between him and Leah Kateb.
However, their relationship was short-lived.
The season finale of Love Island aired over the weekend and the contestants are ready to speak out on their reality TV experiences.
On Tuesday, the official Call Her Daddy Instagram profile shared a video of Alex and Rob dancing to a trending pop song to promote the upcoming podcast interview.
In the short clip, the Spotify star stood outside enjoying the sunny day in a forest green sweatshirt and loose-fitted cargo pants.
She softly danced to Sunny Day by Beabadoobee with her eyes closed.
The camera quickly panned to Rob standing in just a pair of shorts and cowboy boots.
The TV star quietly sang the lyrics while stating that he was a huge fan of the song.
In another teaser, Rob sat in the Call Her Daddy podcast room in blue overalls and said, “Sup daddy?”
The episode is set to air on Tuesday at 9 pm EST.
ROLLERCOASTER RELATIONSHIP
During the beginning of Love Island – hosted by Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix – Leah and Rob were attracted to one another.
However, things went south when a new bombshell, Andrea Carmona, entered the villa.
Rob immediately tried to pursue Andrea and left Leah behind.
During a challenge, Leah and her fellow cast mates were instructed to eliminate someone from the island – which was Andrea.
Enraged by their decision, Rob placed the blame on Leah.

ONLY THE BEGINNING
Meanwhile, Miguel and Leah’s relationship is only growing stronger now that the group has left the villa in Fiji.
In a new interview, Miguel revealed that he wants to continue pursuing his relationship with Leah.
Leah is an incredible woman. [We] get along in a way that I wasn’t expecting to ever get along with anybody in the villa,” he told Us Weekly.
“We have such similarities, our banter is the same. She understands my goofy side. She understands me for who I am. She took me away [with] how incredible of a person she is.”
The star continued, “I definitely want to see how far this goes and whatever happens, whatever happens, I don’t want to lose what me and her have created.
“She’s definitely someone that I’ll hold dear for, I think, the rest of my life.”
