'I was shocked at how fast they moved on'

After being coupled up with Dami, Islander Amber Beckford reveals her upset over his relationship with pal Indiyah

- RHIANNA BENSON

So much has happened in the Love Island villa since Amber Beckford was dumped along with fellow Islander Ikenna Ekwonna. But the former nanny, 24, is still angry about the way she was kicked off the island, and how her bestie Indiyah Polack, 23, and love interest Dami Hope got together so quickly following her departure.

"I saw red flags in Dami," she tells us. "My gut instinct was right. Clearly our connection wasn't as great as I'd thought. And I would have appreciated a heads-up from Indiyah - we were friends."

After leaving the villa, Amber's family made the decision to remove her from social media after cruel trolling.

"I wasn't expecting it on the scale that it was," she says. "I'm glad my family deleted my Twitter - it would've been heartbreaking."

Here, Amber dishes the dirt on this year's couples and reveals who she thinks will make it all the way to the final...

Hi, Amber! What has life been like since leaving Love Island?

It's been amazing being back with my friends and family, but I still feel like I'm in that villa bubble. In my head, I'm half there and half in London and I still can't get used to people recognising me on the street, it's so strange! 

No one expected you to go so soon, were you surprised?

As soon as I heard I was up against Ekin-Su and Tasha in the public vote, I knew I was in trouble. Tasha had also been there from the beginning and Ekin-Su was at the centrepoint of the drama, so I read the room and knew I'd be going. If it was down to the Islanders to decide, I definitely wouldn't have been the one to leave, which is comforting. I got a few challenges under my belt and even went on a date, so I can't really complain. You have to expect the unexpected in Love Island!
