Love Island’s Tyler Cruickshank makes grovelling apology after being accused of ‘humiliating’ co-star Rachel Finni

A former Love Island star has revealed that Islanders can make use of the villa's "cat flap", which delivers anything a contestant may desire. Rachel Finni starred in the 2021 series of the ITV2 show and has recently opened up on some of the hidden features of the villa that viewers don't get to see. One of which is the "cat flap", which she says islanders only need to "ask, believe and receive".

She was eventually dumped from the villa.Love Island has long had a problem with the inclusion of women of colour on the show, with few success stories across the seven previous seasons and Rachel unfortunately is one casualty.

Love Island came to an end to talk about the latest villa gossip.When asked who she thought was going to get to the final she said: "It’s hard to answer if anyone could go to the final, as someone who's been on the show and knows how it works, everyone gets a character."There’s a broken-hearted person, a joker, that depends who is going to win."People's characters change, it’s not necessarily them, it’s the show."I think everyone brings something to the table, everyone shares a purpose."We’ve still got a lot of time to fall in love with certain islanders and make opinions of them, I will just say as someone who has been on the show just take everything you say with a pinch of salt because you're not seeing everything." In the interview Rachel also responded to the slew of apologies by her former co-stars after a comment was made about her online.Last Wednesday (June 8), ex-Islanders Brad McClelland, Tyler Cruickshank, Aaron Francis and Jake Cornish appeared on a joint Instagram Live together where they took part in brief Q&A from their loyal legion of fans.During the catch-up, the group were discussing the subject of bombshells entering the villa on the ITV dating show when Brad read out a message which said: “Rachel, not a bombshell.”Brad, who was with Rachel for a brief time on the show back in 2021, read the comment out before he burst out laughing, adding that he “wasn’t into her”, despite their brief coupling.When she was asked about the cruel jokes made about her during the video, she claimed the clip revealed the group’s “true colours”.She said: “I’m over it. I said what I said, they said what they said.
