It comes as dumped Love Island contestant Blu Chegini spilled the beans on his quick getaway from the villa last Friday (June 13) night.

After the latest recoupling drama hit, Blu found himself booted from the villa as his fellow islander decided to throw a lifeline to newbie Shea instead.

Breaking his silence post-show exit, Blu dished out the details: "We asked them for their point of view as we were both really stubborn in that situation. We weren't going to budge, so we had to get them to make the decision."

Blu didn't hold back on his reflections, saying, "Everyone had their own thoughts. But listen, someone's got to go at the end of the day.

"The way it went was better than I thought it would have gone; I had some nice things said about me and that meant a lot to me."

The 26 year old ex-contestant revealed: "I don't think I could have done any more than I did. I wanted to go there and find a spark, and as much as I tried to see if I could get a connection or have that sort of flirty banter, I couldn't really find it."
