On whether she’d learned anything from her experience, the Lounge Host said: I’ve learned that I can be a bit shy and it takes me a bit of time to come out of my shell.
‘But I maybe learned to put myself out there a bit more. I did learn a few things.’
Afia admitted: ‘Initially I was attracted to Dami but then throughout the experience it was more Ikenna.
‘I did get the vibe that things were going well for Indiyah and Ikenna quite quickly.’

Indiyah said: ‘Sometimes it is nice to know that you’re feeling me, that you’re interested or if it’s reciprocated.’

And two new boys, Jay Younger, 28, from Edinburgh and model Remi Lambert, 22, from Manchester. are seen entering the villa to stir up more trouble.
When asked ‘Why do you think you are a catch?’ Jay said: ‘I think I genuinely have what most females want.
‘I’ve got a good job, I think I am a good looking lad and I have a lot of fun so I feel like I could add a lot of value to their lives if they add a lot of value to mine.’
When Remi was asked ‘Why Love Island and why now?’ he responded: ‘I am single AF! When I saw Molly [Mae Hague] and Tommy [Fury] and saw how strong they are together, I thought ‘I want a love like that.’
