Four Islanders were dumped from the Villa tonight...

Here's what Chris & Harley had to say about their time in the villa.

Chris  

How would you sum up your time in the villa?

I don’t know where to start! It was literally the best two weeks of my life. It was so much fun. There are so many amazing people in there. So many amazing laughs. I went through a period of self-discovery and I learned a lot about myself. I don’t regret a second of it. I was in there being me. I’ve made loads of friends for life. It’s the hardest I’ve ever laughed. It was an amazing experience all around. 

What would you say were some of your highlights?

Every single one of the challenges was brilliant for me. I’d be in there 24 hours and I had to go out there dressed as a sailor! I just embraced it and got on with it. It was so funny. All the challenges were quality. They bring everyone together. Loads of banter always comes off the back of the challenges. Meeting Harley was obviously a highlight as well!

Do you have any regrets?

Absolutely not. I would do that a million times and I would do everything as I did. Don’t get me wrong, I made some schoolboy errors. I shouldn’t have swilled myself and then India in hindsight. I was 100% me in there, if I someone else I would have thought ‘What have you done?’ 

What was the most challenging aspect of being in the villa?

It’s the environment. It’s so intense. You go in and you have no idea how intense it’s going to be. You don’t have much time to think. You act on gut instincts. It’s an environment that breeds a lot of drama but it also breeds a lot of friendships, relationships and jokes. I can’t knock it for a second. 

If you could see one of the couples going the distance, who would it be?

Tommy and Molly-Mae are definitely going to win! When you’re actually in their presence, you can see it. They live in each other's pockets, they’re two peas in a pod! They’re at the same stage in their lives, they live really close together. They’ll go the distance!

How do you feel about Harley now? 

I think Harley will agree with me. It’s really early doors for us, we didn’t get to spend loads and loads of time together in the villa. It’s anyone's guess at the moment. It could be a thing but we need to spend more time together in a real-life environment to know whether anything could work. 

Given the chance, would you go back into the villa?

100%! I would go back in a flash. Even if it was just for five minutes to give everyone a hug!

Harley

How would you sum up your time in the villa? 

I would sum up my Love Island experience as emotional and a lot of happiness! It was just an incredible experience really. 

What would you say were some of your highlights?

I think it was when Jordan asked Anna to be his girlfriend and then we all jumped in the pool! It was a really nice memory. It was also the night I had my first kiss with Chris. It was a lovely night. 

If you had your time again, would you have coupled-up with anyone different?

I wouldn’t have done anything differently. I stayed true to myself and did everything that I wanted to do. 

What is the most challenging aspect of living in the villa? 

Probably how intense it is. You’re around people 24/7 and this isn’t a normal environment to be around when you’re getting to know someone. And they see you at your best, and at your worst and you only want them to see you at your best!

If you could see one of the couples going the distance, who would it be? 

Tommy and Molly-Mae. I’m really backing Ovie and India as well. 

How do you feel about Chris? 

It’s still really early for me and Chris. We’re going to see how things go on the outside. He’s so lovely and he’s so sweet. So, I’m excited to see where it goes. 

Given the chance, would you want to go back into the villa?

Probably not, no. I’ve done my time and I’m very excited to go and see my family. 

Do you feel like you made any mistakes along the way?

No, I wouldn’t have done anything differently. I stayed true to myself. 

 

Love Island returns tomorrow night from 9PM on ITV2.
