'Adam said I was fit before he went back in!'

She's been on and off our screens faster than you can say, "I've got a text!" Still, singer Antigoni Buxton certainly left her mark on the Love Island villa - and she hasn't been shy about spilling the beans since she came home, either.

"Jacques is actually a massive softie and a real sweetheart," the 26-year-old tells new. "He's not the laddish rugby boy they're depicting him to be.

"Paige will entertain Adam because she's such a flirt.

"And Luca likes Gemma more than she likes him - he's literally obsessed with her!"

Though she might not have found The One - despite feeling chemistry with Italian stallion Davide Sanclimenti, 27, and Scottish trainer Jay Younger, 28- Antigoni left the Majorcan villa with magical memories, long-lasting friendships and an enviable tan.

Here, she opens up about what the future holds for the remaining couples and reveals which current Islander recently called her "fit" on Instagram...

Hi, Antigoni! What's life been like since leaving the Love Island villa?

It's been amazing! It's strange when people come up to me on the street to say hello but I love it. I've had such a lovely welcome back to reality.

You left following a vote from the boys. How did that feel?

I know the lads had a difficult decision to make, so there's no hard feelings. But I was really disappointed afterwards - and very delirious as the dumping happened at around 5am! But I do believe the universe meant for me to leave at that time. Everything happens for a reason.

It seemed to be between yourself and Danica to go home. Do you think it should have been her?
