Love Island's Jess White on her relationship with Hugo Godfroy and how she feels about fellow Islander Harriet Blackmore

We both gave as good as we got'

Her Love Island experience was far from easy. Jess White was pulled into a tense love triangle over Ronnie Vint from the start, before finally finding her man Hugo Godfroy in Casa Amor - only for him to express doubts over their connection.

With Jess and Hugo now out of the villa, it may come as a surprise to fans of the ITV2 show that they're still going strong despite Hugo's wobble just days before their exit.

"We are still seeing each other," the 25-year-old retail manager tells new, while Hugo adds, "We're just going at our own pace." Before the pair were dumped after receiving the fewest votes from the public, Southampton electrician Hugo, 24, confided in fellow Islander Ayo Odukoya that he felt something was "missing" from their romance and that their conversations were "a bit dry".

Jess reveals that the pair worked out their problems but it wasn't shown on camera.

"We actually had numerous conversations after Hugo's chat with Ayo and we were good.

That's why I'm not feeling a certain way about it - because I'd moved on from it. I was aware of it but obviously, when it's not shown, you have to come out and answer a lot of questions.

"Me and Hugo spent so much time together, but that didn't get aired," she adds. "Let's all remember it's a TV show we're asked to have certain conversations, which are going to potentially cause drama, so when you start saying, 'Actually, I'm happy doing what I'm doing with the person I'm coupled up with,' it doesn't make for good TV."
