    Love Island’s Dani Dyer detailed her surprising link to the A-list Hollywood star as she talked romance, family life and fame on new comedy podcast, Straight To The Comments! 

    Speaking to hosts Josh Pieters and Archie Manners, Dani was asked about her childhood and revealed she used to have a very famous babysitter. 

    The mother-of-three revealed that Oscar nominee Keira Knightley used to do the honours but she ‘had no idea’ who Keira was at the time. 

    Dani explained: ‘It wasn’t for that long; the partner she was with at the time was in one of my dad’s films. Obviously, I was quite young, and she just looked after me.’

    Dani continued: ‘I think she’d done Bend It Like Beckham, because I remember sort of looking at her and thinking “I know who you are”. 

    ‘Then when we got home from the film set my mum was like “that’s Kiera Knightley!” and I was like “oh my god”.

    Asked what Keira was like as a babysitter, Dani revealed: ‘she was lovely; it was years and years ago, but she was lovely!’ 

    Dani also spoke candidly about her relationship with footballer Jarrod Bowen and how she really feels about the crude West Ham chant dedicated to her as well as discussing the ’embarrassing’ moments she’s suffered as a result of her father Danny Dyer. 

    And listeners will hear all about it when they tune into Straight To The Comments! on Monday.

    Keira layered up for the outing with a black varsity jacket and completed the look with a pair of sunglasses.

    Keira is currently filming for new Netflix thriller Black Doves alongside Ben Whishaw and Sarah Lancashire.

    The six part action series which is set against the backdrop of London at Christmas will follow Keira’s character Helen Webb, a quick-witted, down to earth, dedicated wife and mother – and professional spy.

    For ten years, she’s been passing on her politician husband’s secrets to the shadowy organisation she works for: the Black Doves.

    When her secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is assassinated, her spymaster, the enigmatic Reed (Sarah) calls in Helen’s old friend to keep her safe.

    Sam Young (Ben) is a suave, champagne-drinking assassin. But having been out of the game since a failed job with disastrous consequences, he’s come home to a London that has moved on without him.

    As his past threatens to catch up with him, his task is to protect Helen as she investigates who killed Jason and why.

    Together, they set off on a mission that will lead them to uncover a vast, interconnected conspiracy. One that links the murky underworld of London to a looming geopolitical crisis – and leads them to question the cost of the moral choices they’ve made.

    The Netflix series is written by Joe Barton and Keira is listed as an executive producer.

    Molly confronts Arabella for sharing the public’s expectations of her reunion with Callum with Tom, sparking a heated argument as she is criticized for overreacting.

    Molly Smith was left raging at her pal Arabella Chi on Friday night’s episode of Love Island All Stars, following outcry from the public.

    On the previous evening’s show, the girls were treated to video calls from close friends, during which a host of former stars of the show revealed to contestants that viewers were vying for a reunion between the pair. 

    While speaking to Georgia Steel and Georgia Harrison, Dani Dyer and Olivia Attwood both revealed that the public are rooting for Callum and Molly to reunite. 

    After Molly discovered Arabella informed a very digruntled Tom of the news, she asked her pal: ‘Why didn’t you speak to me first?’, to which Arabella said: ‘It’s only going to be a big deal if you both make it a big deal.’

    Molly hit back: ‘Yeah, but I would have spoken about it. I don’t appreciate someone speaking about it…I wish I would have been able to tell him’. Arabella then pointedly told her pal: ‘Babe, you should have just told him then…’

    In a teaser for Friday’s episode, Tom was told about the support for the exes – which was a surprise to all the Islanders. 

    ‘The public are for some reason backing,’ Georgia H began saying, before Arabella continued: ‘Callum and Molly to get back together.’

    The camera then panned to Tom for his reaction, where could be seen scrunching his face and looking angry. 

    ‘If there’s a slight one per cent I want to know,’ he was seen saying of the situation.

    The teaser clip ended with Molly and Josh Ritchie sat together as she said: ‘He looks f***ing fuming.’ 

    Fans were quick to share their excitement that the islanders were now informed of the public’s views on the pair. 

    ‘These people asking all the correct questions about molly and callum mhm THIS is what I have been asking for,’ one person said. 

    While another wrote on X, formerly Twitter: ‘The villa finally finding out that everyone wants Callum and Molly back together this is what I’ve been waiting for omg.’

    ‘THE PREVIEW OH MY GOD TOM IS RAGING PLEASE TELL ME WE GET CALLUM AND MOLLY BACK,’ an excited fan wrote.’

    While sharing a GIF of Tom having a tantrum during his series in 2023, another said: ‘THIS IS GOING TO BE TOM TOMORROW AFTER FINDING OUT THE COUNTRY WANT MOLLY AND CALLUM BACK TOGETHER.’

    Desperate to see a reunion between the exes, one fan wrote: ‘Molly it’s clear that you need to pull Callum for a chat and put it all on the line. 

    ‘We are done seeing you settle with the tree and Cal isn’t twinning with whichever one that is.’

    It came after Molly got emotional after claiming earlier in the episode that Callum’s family will ‘absolutely love’ Jess Gale.

    At the start of the episode, the girls gathered to discuss all about their romantic Valentine’s Day dates which the boys sweetly arranged on Wednesday.

    And as Jess starting speaking about her date with Molly’s ex Callum, Arabella Chi noticed Molly become visibly quiet.

    While Arabella pulled Molly over for a private chat afterwards to check if she was okay, Molly surprisingly sung Jess’ praises instead. 

    As she shared what she thought Callum’s family will feel about Jess, Molly started crying, but claimed she was emotional because of what Georgia Harrison has been through. 

    She said: ‘They’re so compatible, his family will absolutely love her.’

    Fans were less convinced that Molly wasn’t upset and claimed her tears were secretly because she misses Callum, not because she was upset for Georgia.

    Dani Dyer made a surprise return to the Love Island villa to offer her best friend  Georgia Steel relationship advice. 

    The season four winner, 27, appears via video call in Thursday’s episode to weigh in on Georgia’s new ‘exclusive’ status with Toby Aromolaran. 

    The boys headed off on a surprise day out when the girls received a shock text of their own, informing them: ‘Girls, while the boys are out having beers you will get all the tea with video calls from home.’

    Georgia then received a call from Dani, who probed: ‘So, is exclusive boyfriend and girlfriend, I need to know this?’

    The All Stars Islander wasn’t sure, however, as she replied: ‘I am with you on this! What is this exclusive thing?’

    Giving her advice, Dani responded: ‘You should ask!’

    During Wednesday’s show, viewers were expecting Toby to ask Georgia to be his girlfriend, or at least confirm that the pair were exclusive, but instead he coined a bizarre new phrase.

    As the pair enjoyed a Valentine’s date together, Toby confirmed he was ‘locked in’ before asking Georgia if she felt the same.

    Confirming with a cheeky wink, the couple shared a passionate kiss as they celebrated their relationship progressing to the next level. 

    Dani knows all too well how villa romances can blossom, having coupled up with ex-boyfriend Jack Fincham on the show and winning the fourth series in 2018, however they split nine months later in April 2019.

    Since then, Dani has found love with West Ham footballer Jarrod Bowen, who she shares twin girls Summer and Star, eight months, with.

    Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX  

    LOVE ISLAND ALL STARS: MEET THE CAST

    Georgia Harrison

    AGE: 29 

    SERIES: 3

    Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? This is the last year of my 20s so I want to go in the Villa and have some fun and hopefully meet someone that I can fall in love with. I’m lucky in the sense that I’ve got everything in my life that I could possibly wish for, apart from love.

    If you had to pick your top Islanders from Series 1 to 10 to couple up with who would they be and why? Chris Taylor, he’s hilarious and the main thing I’m attracted to is a man who can make me laugh. What a fun guy and like I said, I’m looking for someone to TikTok with so I reckon he’d be game for that sort of stuff!

     

    Georgia Steel

    AGE: 25

    SERIES: 4

    Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? I’m 25, I have a house, a cat, a nice car – I have everything in life but a boyfriend, so why not give it as go.

    You’ve been brave and honest in opening up about being conned by a former partner. How has this experience impacted the way in which you now approach dating? 

    I take that experience as a really positive reflection now. I look at it as something I had to go through to make me stronger and learn things in life for me to be able to learn what I want in my next partner.

     

    Molly Smith  

    AGE: 29

    SERIES: 6 

    What do you need to know? Molly entered her season as a Casa Amor bombshell and managed to turn Callum Jones’ head.  

    It’s believed she ended things with Callum after three years because she ‘wanted to get engaged’ but the offer was seemingly not forthcoming. 

     

    Arabella Chi

    AGE: 32

    SERIES: 5 

    What do you need to know? Despite a fleeting stint on her series she has hit the headlines with a series of high profile romances since, most recently with footballer Ruben Dias. 

    She was linked to former French rugby player Yoann Huget and  DJ Tom Zanetti. She also enjoyed a brief dalliance with fellow All Star Toby Aromolaran.

     

     Tom Clare

    AGE: 24

    SERIES: 9

    Why are you returning to the Villa?

    I found love last time, so I am back and ready to give it another go.

    What will you do differently this time round?

    Last time I did exactly what I wanted and got the girl that I wanted, so no I wouldn’t do anything different.

    Why do you think the Villa is the perfect place to find love?

    When you’re with someone 24/7 you really get to know them. It can be such an alien environment, so you really get to know someone in a short space of time. It’s Love Island – it’s the best place!

     
     

    Adam Maxted

     AGE: 31

    SERIES: 2 

    Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa?

    It’s a second opportunity to go in there as my older, wiser and more confident self. I was nervous last time – it would be nice to go in there and form a connection with somebody. I’ll be passing words of wisdom for sure. 

     

     

    Toby Aromolaran

    AGE: 24

    SERIES: 7

    Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? If I’m Single and Love Island is an opportunity for me, how could you turn down the chance to find love again?!

    You were in a long term relationship with Chloe Burrows, what do you think her reaction will be when she hears you are going into the Villa? I don’t know how she would take it. We will always have love for each other and I think she would wish me the best of luck, as I would certainly do the same.

     

     

     Anton Danyluk

    AGE: 29

    SERIES: 5

    Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? For me it was a no brainer. I got the call and it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity and probably the best summer I have ever had in my life. Getting the chance to do it twice is going to be unbelievable.

    Why do you think the Love Island Villa is the perfect place to find love? 

    I think this time with Love Island: All Stars, things will be different, as we all understand what it’s like to go on Love Island and the only thing now missing is finding a partner.

     

    Callum Jones 

    AGE: 27

    SERIES: 6 

    What do you need to know? Callum caused shockwaves in his series when he ended his romance with Shauna Phillips and recoupled with Molly Smith in Casa Amor.

    The couple went on to have a three-year relationship, even moving in together in Manchester but split last year, months before an awkward reunion in the Love Island All Stars villa. 

     

    Josh Ritchie 

    AGE: 29

    SERIES: 1 

    What do you need to know? Joshua, was one of the original Islanders in 2015 and has since made a name for himself on reality TV shows including Ex on the Beach and Celebs Go Dating – and because of his highly publicised romances.

    Sophie Piper

    AGE: 24

    SERIES: 6 

    Why are you returning to the famous Love Island Villa?

    I had a fun experience the first time around but I didn’t go the full way and find love, so I’d love to find someone this time.

    What will you do differently this time round?

    I’m quite chilled and don’t want drama, so I think I will approach this time round in a similar way. I’m a one guy kind of girl.

    Why do you think the Villa is the perfect place to find love?

    It’s a once in a lifetime experience and not something that comes up every day. 

     

    Jess Gale 

    AGE: 24

    SERIES: 6

    Why are you returning to the villa?

    ‘This time around I feel more mature and focused ready to find my future husband. I’m ready now, we’ve had so much fun the last few years I’m ready to share my life with someone else other than Eve.’

    Katherine Ryan looked stunning as she attended the star-studded Vanity Fair EE Rising Star Party on Wednesday night.

    The comedian, 40, wore a floor-length black fitted gown with a quirky cut, plunging neckline for the annual celebration, held at the Four Seasons Hotel.

    She elevated her height with a pair of nude strappy heels and carried a matching box clutch bag. 

    To complete her look, Katherine styled her blunt cut bob straight and opted for a flick of black eyeliner with a nude lipstick. 

    The event was in celebration of the only category at the EE BAFTA Film Awards voted for by the public. The BAFTAS will be held on February 18.

    The outing comes after Katherine revealed the heartbreaking reason why she would let her 14-year-old daughter Violet go on Love Island.

    The comedian told how she ‘wouldn’t be against’ the ITV dating show – after a series of sons and daughters of celebrities such as Gemma Owen have headed into the villa.

    She sadly told how it would probably be ‘one of the safest places for a teenager to be in a few years’ because of the safeguarding the series has.

    Katherine also told how she thinks Violet would be most like Dani Dyer on the show who emerged as the Girl Next Door type.

    She told The Sun: ‘In my teens, I was doing all kinds of dangerous things — sleeping out in fields and getting into random cars. At 17 I was going out with someone who was 31.

    ‘But I don’t think Violet will make those kinds of mistakes. She probably can’t help but absorb my feminist mantras, so I think she values herself more than I did at that age.

    ‘If she wanted to get into TV, I wouldn’t be against Love Island. She’d be the Dani Dyer type. It will probably be one of the safest places for a teenager to be in a few years because of the safeguarding on that show.

    ‘I can imagine her just there to prop the other girls up and say all the right things and be a sweetheart.’

    Katherine shares two children Fenna Grace, 13 months and Fred, two, with her husband Bobby Kootstra, 40, as well as Violet with ex-boyfriend Alex Edelman.

    It comes after last week Katherine revealed exactly how many times a month she has sex with her husband.

    The star explained how she likes to ‘keep a log’ of any amorous activity with husband of four years Bobby in case she ends up pregnant.

    In an interview with The Times, where she was asked if she was particularly active in the bedroom, Katherine replied: ‘No, but I should be. We have sex exactly twice a month. I log it just in case I do get pregnant.’

    The comedian regularly shares her life as a mum with her 983k Instagram followers, and insisted of her parenting style: ‘I’m very confident about it. I do things my way and I never follow what the grandma says or what the book says.

    ‘I never went to NCT groups. They tried to lure you in, [I] said no. I was 24, pregnant in a foreign country with no family and I was like, “I got it!” I got pregnant with Violet on purpose. I joke that she was a surprise, but she wasn’t.’

    She previously admitted that she and Bobby go ‘back and forth about having more babies,’ saying:  ‘I will never allow him to get the snip! I just really love kids.’

    Katherine and Bobby have been together since 2018 but have known each other since they were children, growing up together in Canada.

    Childhood sweethearts, the two parted ways initially before rekindling things this side of the Atlantic.

    The pair got a civil partnership in 2019, and went to Denmark for the ceremony, with Katherine previously telling The Jonathan Ross Show: ‘It was a lovely day. It’s perfect having a civil partner.

    ‘We didn’t have a wedding, I didn’t need to put on a white dress and pretend to be a virgin, that ship has sailed!’

  • Dani Dyer’s Unexpected Answer to Whether She’d Allow Her Children to Watch her Love Island Series

    Dani Dyer’s Unexpected Answer to Whether She’d Allow Her Children to Watch her Love Island Series

    She won Love Island 2018 with ex-boyfriend Jack Fincham. 

    And Dani Dyer has now revealed if she would let her children watch back her time on the ITV2 dating series.  

    The doting mother, 27, had a rollercoaster time in the villa, finding love with Jack but also prompting one of the most-complained Ofcom moments when she discovered he was living with his ex in Casa Amor. 

    Yet despite the ups and downs and the very racy challenges on the programme, Dani has insisted she has no issues with her three children watching it. 

    Dani shares son, Santiago, three , with her ex, Sammy Kimmence and has twin daughters Summer and Star, eight months, with her footballer boyfriend Jarrod Bowen.

    Dani Dyer shared a surprising response when she was asked on Wednesday's episode of BBC Breakfast if she'd let her children watch her series of Love Island

    Appearing on Wednesday’s BBC Breakfast to promote CBeebies’s new app, she was asked by hosts Sally Nugent and Jon Kay whether she has thought about her children looking back at her on the racy show

    Dani mused: ‘I hope I come across well enough when they watch it back to be honest but it was a really positive time for me so if they want to watch it then by all means they can.’

    She looked every inch of the doting mum as she left the studio pushing a pram with her eldest son, Santiago.

    The influencer looked incredible as she wrapped up warm in a bright white wool jumper that featured bright gold buttons trailing down the centre.

    Dani paired her clean look with a set of grey bootcut trousers and an oversized grey teddy bear trench coat.

    To accessorise, she donned a pair of crisp white trainers and a grey quilted day bag, which was slung over the blond beauty’s shoulder.

    Beaming cheek to cheek, Dani let her long golden tresses flow elegantly in the wind as she made her way home with her little one.

    Dani appeared on the show to promote CBeebies Little Learners app which aims to inject the joy of play into the educational journey of pre-school children and be a go-to resource for parents and early years professionals as they help the UK’s children to develop and learn.

    Promoting the app, Dani, said: ‘The CBeebies Little Learners app is not just a game-changer for our kids, it’s honestly such a good tool for parents! 

    ‘Being a mum of three, I’m always worried about what the kids are playing with on their iPads and whether it’s beneficial for them.

    ‘This app is such a saviour because it’s from a source that I trust and I know it’s been developed with education in mind, so it gives me confidence that the kids are learning skills to develop, whilst they’re being entertained.’

    Dani is a mother to twin daughters Summer and Star, eight months, and son, Santiago, three, who she brought with her to the studio

    Her appearance on the show comes after she marked her two-year anniversary with Jarrod in a sweet post on Instagram in November.

    The pair celebrated the milestone with a romantic date followed by some ‘Happy Anniversary’ cupcakes.

    Dani also posted pictures of Jarrod sat with his arms around he, and she wrote a sweet tribute to her partner in the caption of her post: ‘2 years of us. Thank you for making me my happiest and calming down my inner crazy (a little).

    ‘You are the best boyfriend and daddy, and I can’t wait to make even more special memories. Love you baby, every girl deserves someone like you.’

    Dani recently opened up about how she and Jarrod have ‘adapted’ to becoming a family-of-five while also admitting that she is struggling to ‘find clothes that currently fit’ after welcoming the twin girls.

    She said: ‘Honestly, I am all good. I feel like I’m adapting every single day and not putting too much pressure on myself like I did the first time around. My little Sants taught me so much.

    ‘Trying to find clothes that currently fit me is hard. I preferred having a baby in winter much easier clothing wise.

    ‘I am loving our baby bubble but also looking forward to getting out a bit more as I’ve really hibernated. So I need to find some sort of a new routine but I know I will get there.’

    Dani also revealed that Jarrod has been very hands on with the babies, but gushed that her mother, Joanne Mas, ‘has been her rock’: ‘Jarrod has been off which has been amazing, been so lovely having him around as he was away at the start.

    ‘My mum has honestly been my rock especially at the beginning when I couldn’t really do much!’

  • Katherine Ryan shares emotional reason why she’d allow daughter Violet, 14, to go on Love Island and predicts her TV persona

    Katherine Ryan shares emotional reason why she’d allow daughter Violet, 14, to go on Love Island and predicts her TV persona

    Katherine Ryan has revealed the heartbreaking reason why she would let her 14-year-old daughter Violet go on Love Island.

    The comedian, 40, told how she ‘wouldn’t be against’ the ITV dating show – after a series of sons and daughters of celebrities such as Gemma Owen have headed into the villa.

    She sadly told how it would probably be ‘one of the safest places for a teenager to be in a few years’ because of the safeguarding the series has.

    Katherine also told how she thinks Violet would be most like Dani Dyer on the show who emerged as the Girl Next Door type.

    She told The Sun: ‘In my teens, I was doing all kinds of dangerous things — sleeping out in fields and getting into random cars. At 17 I was going out with someone who was 31.

    ‘But I don’t think Violet will make those kinds of mistakes. She probably can’t help but absorb my feminist mantras, so I think she values herself more than I did at that age.

    ‘If she wanted to get into TV, I wouldn’t be against Love Island. She’d be the Dani Dyer type. It will probably be one of the safest places for a teenager to be in a few years because of the safeguarding on that show.

    ‘I can imagine her just there to prop the other girls up and say all the right things and be a sweetheart.’

    Katherine shares two children Fenna Grace, 13 months and Fred, two, with her husband Bobby Kootstra, 40, as well as Violet with ex-boyfriend Alex Edelman.

    It comes after last week Katherine revealed exactly how many times a month she has sex with her husband.

    The star explained how she likes to ‘keep a log’ of any amorous activity with husband of four years Bobby in case she ends up pregnant.

    In an interview with The Times, where she was asked if she was particularly active in the bedroom, Katherine replied: ‘No, but I should be. We have sex exactly twice a month. I log it just in case I do get pregnant.’

    The comedian regularly shares her life as a mum with her 983k Instagram followers, and insisted of her parenting style: ‘I’m very confident about it. I do things my way and I never follow what the grandma says or what the book says.

  • Jack Fincham, Love Island star, dons £3.5k designer attire while serving community service at Kent charity shop following driving ban

    Jack Fincham, Love Island star, dons £3.5k designer attire while serving community service at Kent charity shop following driving ban

    Love Island’s Jack Fincham was pictured decked out in £3,500 designer gear while doing community service at a charity shop over the weekend.

    The reality star, 31, won the fourth series of the ITV2 dating show alongside then-girlfriend Dani Dyer, and the couple split the £50,000 cash prize.

    Since then, Jack has been hit with a driving ban and charged with two counts of drug-driving after crashing his BMW into a traffic island two days after taking cocaine last month.

    And now, Jack has been pictured completing his community service at a Sue Ryder shop in Kent. 

    In pictures obtained by The Sun, Jack appeared in high spirits as he served customer at the charity shop, where he works between 9.30am and 4pm.

    Jack was dressed in a £135 Fila tracksuit and £845 coat, teamed with a £30 Hugo Boss hat, a £1,930 Louis Vuitton holdall and a £509 Gucci bag.

    An onlooker told the publication: ‘I walked by a few times throughout the day and saw him sitting down with a cup of tea quite a bit. He was friendly and smiley and chatting with customers.’

    It comes after Jack admitted he has ‘never been happier’ since he returned to his old job selling pens, following his three year driving ban.

    Jack has credited his old firm for getting him ‘back on the straight and narrow’, according to The Sun.

    Speaking to the publication, he said: ‘I’m back to work now and having a routine keeps me sane, it gives me a purpose, right? That’s why I’m so happy.

    ‘After Love Island I had more money than I knew what to do with. I could go out on a Wednesday and not have to worry about getting up for work early the next day.

    ‘I’ve been gradually falling to pieces since 2018… then the money ran out.’

    Jack won Love Island’s £50k prize with his then-girlfriend Dani Dyer in 2018.

    The reality star recently broke his silence about his secret stint in rehab after his drug addiction became too much for him to handle.

    Jack became addicted to cocaine and diazepam pills after he was thrust into the limelight.

    At one point, Jack was taking at least 30 diazepam pills a day before his mother tricked him when he was high and he found himself in rehab.

    Speaking to The Sun, Jack confessed: ‘Death was on the cards for me, it was imminent.’

    The night before he went to rehab he had taken a high quantities of sleeping and anti-anxiety tablets and was completely unaware of where he was or what he was doing.

    His mum, Samantha, then told her son to pack a bag as she suggested he ‘go away for a while’.

    Jack recalled being totally out of it and didn’t even question where he was going.

    ‘I got in there and then realised ‘s*** I’m not coming out of here now. I started kicking off, shouting “I don’t need to be here, I’m not like that, I don’t have a problem”.’

    Jack has now been clean since August, in his longest drug-free spell since he left the Love Island villa.

    The star revealed that he wouldn’t be here today if he hadn’t received help: ‘If I had carried on how I was, even up to six months ago, I would definitely be dead. Without a shadow of a doubt.’

    It hasn’t been an easy journey for Jack, who suffered from crippling anxiety and terrifying hallucinations whenever he tried to get clean.

    Jack attended The Haynes Clinic in Bedfordshire for rehab back in November 2020, yet he relapsed after just months after his treatment.

    The influencer has now returned to his job as a pens salesman while he gets back on his feet and continues to attend therapy and Narcotics Anonymous meetings.

    Before heading out, the OnlyFans star posted a short video to her Instagram posing in the mirror, with a caption that read: ‘Dry Jan but make it cute’ followed by a nail polish emoji.

    The blonde beauty was most recently seen in Love Island Games in October, but left viewers confused when she disappeared from the show.

    She had been getting close with Kyra Green, with the couple forming the show’s first same-sex couple and sharing a steamy kiss. 

     However, after she was no where to be seen in an episode in November, Iain Stirling – who narrates the show – told viewers that Megan had left for ‘medical reasons’.

    The show also saw her turn down advances from her ex Eyal Booker. 

    The pair first rose to fame on the fourth edition of the hit dating show in 2018, alongside the likes of Dani Dyer, Jack Fincham, Georgia Steel and Dr Alex George.

    Megan was also rumoured to be reuniting with her villa ex Wes Nelson in the All Stars series.

    The TV personality has been very open about her past relationships and previously dated footballer Chelcee Grimes in 2020.

    Speaking candidly about her sexuality with The Mirror, Megan admitted: ‘I wish I had a relationship with a woman sooner – it’s the best thing I did.

    ‘It’s hard to describe but it’s so different with a girl than it is with a guy,’ she added.

    Megan went on: ‘When I started dating women I thought ‘this is actually me’ and I felt much more comfortable and close than I have done with any guy.’

    Adding that she’s always known she was interested in women as well as men, Megan said that she hopes more women can ‘talk freely and openly about sex and their sexuality.’
