Zara, 21, has been single since splitting from her Love Island co-star ex Adam Collard, 22, in February.
Olly has not been in a relationship since he broke up with property manager Francesca Thomas in 2015.
But he has been linked to a number of women including DJ Emma Conybeare, and had a fling with TV’s Mel Sykes. His fascination with Zara was discovered after he liked her sexy Instagram snaps.
A source added: “It takes a lot to get Olly’s attention but Zara has really turned his head. Their dates have been out of the public eye and it’s been nice for them to connect on a deeper level without any prying eyes.
