Inside Love Island Molly-Mae's gruelling diet and fitness regime before entering the villa

This is a sneak peak inside the gruelling diet plan and fitness regime Love Island's Molly-Mae did before entering the villa.

The 19-year-old beauty set pulses racing when she walked on to the ITV show as a late entry.

And since arriving she has been coupled up with boxer hunk Tommy Fury.

But although viewers can now see what the blonde bombshell gets up to in the villa, the ECHO has got a sneak peek of her life before the cameras and how she prepared for the hit TV series.

What her trainer had to say

Gym owner and owns Absolute Body Solutions (ABS) and has three gyms, one in Speke, Liverpool city centre and Manchester city centre.

Before entering the villa Manchester's Molly-Mae called on Connor to get her in tip-top shape.

And he has revealed the model had just two weeks to get to her ideal weight and body shape ahead of the show.

Connor said: "We only had a very short time to get Molly-Mae the results she wanted.

"She found out quite late on that she was going in the villa.

"She was actually on holiday when she found out.

"We did a lot of sessions in a short time frame and devised a diet plan after body fat testing so that it suited what it was she needed.

"The diet plan was quite restrictive because she had such a short space of time - it was only about two weeks we had.

"But we worked on getting her the body that she wanted."

Connor said he and personal trainer Josh Ramsden worked with Molly-Mae to make her "leaner" with a full range of weight training exercises.

Speaking about her time on Love Island so far Connor added: "She has been coming across really well.

"Obviously we have seen her in the gym and she is lovely so when we heard she was going on the show we were just hoping that would come across.
