Chateau Romance Blossoms: Illya Knew Sylwia Was “It” Within Days of Meeting
Hauterives, France – Illya,โค co-owner of the French chateau featured on B&B Full of Love, hasโ revealed he felt a strong connection โฃwith Sylwia almost promptly upon her arrival, solidifying his feelings after just three days. In a โขnewly โreleased personalโข account, Illya details โhow Sylwia’s initial impression, even from her request video, sparked his interest and how their connection deepened beyond โthe cameras.
“Even before Sylwia arrived, she โhad my attention. There was something about her video. She was radiant, she โwas spontaneous and I found myselfโข secretly waiting for her arrival,” Illya wrote. He confessed to anticipating a positive connection,โ even โbefore โฃmeeting her in person, believing she “woudl probably be the nicest of all the ladies.”
That initial feeling proved accurate. Illya vividly recalls Sylwia’s immediate impact, describing her playfully engaging in a game of golf with karine within minutes of arriving, “in that pink outfit of hers.” He noted Sylwia’s preparedness and self-assuredness,a quality he found especially engaging.
however,the true connection formed after the cameras stopped rolling. “On camera you are aware โฃof everything you say and doโฆ You only really get to know someone outside the cameras,” Illya explained.He โขadmittedโ to wanting to spend time with Sylwia, despite the need to give all the contestants a fair chance.
“Yet after three days I knew: Sylwia is it for me. Weโค had two evenings of long, deep conversations. It just felt good. Andโค if something feels good, then you should โfollow โit,” he shared. He praised Sylwia’s down-to-earth nature, spontaneity, and willingness to help, noting her helpfulness even with tasks โคlike cleaning rooms.
As the โchateau โคpreparesโ for a โwinterโ renovation, โIllya announced they โare โขentering “job mode,” with โฃassistance from professionals, including Marcel, a former B&B Full of Love contestant.โ “Iโข placed a call and he responded immediately: ‘Yes, great, I’m coming.’ Great,โข right?” Illya wrote. The renovation will be โdocumented and shared with fans as theyโ embark on โคthis “new chapter” together.
