Love Islands Tink says Leah can have Montel following brutal dumping

Love Island star Tink Reading has revealed her true feelings over being brutally dumped by villa boyfriend Montel McKenzie for Leah Taylor.

During her exit interview, the 26 year old reality TV star revealed that she was literally heartbroken as she felt that she had a genuine connection with Montel.

Speaking candidly, she revealed that she was "sad to be leaving" and added that she was left shocked, as she didn't expect it after forming what she thought was a "genuine connection" with Montel.

When asked if she was surprised that he had chosen to stick with his villa girlfriend Leah Taylor, Tink responded saying: "Yes, I think my reaction shows it all."

She added: "I was flabbergasted because of the time I spent with him and the things he had said to me. Montel told me that in the two days that we had together, he knew we had a lot more in common than him and Leah."

She went on to add: "We had similar interests with our friends and family life being the same, he gave me no inclination that he would sway back towards Leah. He was very open and instigated a lot, asking me to stay in his bed and pulling me to the terrace. "

Leah, who counts former Love Islander Maura Higgins as one of her best friends, was left in the middle of a spat between Tink and Montel when he claimed it wasn't a very "difficult" decision for him to choose Leah over Tink when it came to recoupling.

But now the Birmingham born beauty has left the villa, she claims Leah can "have him."

She said: "Montel is a caring person and I do believe he did feel bad after he took me to the terrace. We probably would have been friends if none of this would have happened because of how much we have in common. For me if you can move mad like that I don’t want any involvement. In the nicest possible way, Leah can have him."

But she was keen to state that if she had she stayed in longer, things could have been different between the two.

She went on to explain: "I do think a bit of extra time would have solidified how Montel felt which could have meant things turned out differently."

Speaking about the recoupling experience, Tink added: "It was total madness. Outside of my situation with Montel, the most shocking moment was seeing Tyrique stand on his own at the fire pit. Even though he said he missed the game he really has shown a lot of growth and he was so honest in his speech.
