Love Island girls gave Liberty new bracelet to replace one she gave back to Jake

Love Island star Liberty Poole has revealed the girls gave her a new bracelet to replace the one she gave back to Jake Cornish following their dramatic split.

Jake previously gave Liberty a string band with a magnet attached to symbolise their blossoming love affair with the water engineer wearing a matching one.

In dramatic scenes during the show's final week, Liberty gave the band back to Jake after she dumped him, but was later seen leaving the villa with something similar on her wrist.

Many fans thought she had taken back Jake's bracelet, but Liberty has now explained she was wearing a new one given to her by the girls before she quit.

Speaking in a video posted on Instagram, Liberty told fans: "I gave the bracelet back to Jake that he bought me.

"The bracelet that I actually walked out with in the villa which obviously [you might have] seen photos with me round [on my wrist] was actually one the girls had given me up in the changing room...

"As sort of like a memory thing so that was like cute and I've still got it."

During the question and answer session, Liberty was asked what she's got planned for her career now she's back at home.

The former Nando's waitress insisted she's got plenty of exciting projects in the works.

She said: "There are lots of surprises in store. I love surprises. Nothing has been confirmed yet. Obviously I haven't been out of the villa that long.

"But I've had a lot of opportunities and I'm looking forward... so yeah exciting things are happening."

When asked if she had any regrets over her time in Love Island, Liberty insisted everything happens for a reason.

She explained: "I do not regret anything about my time in the villa. I feel like everything happens for a reason and from start to finish my journey has been the way it was meant to [sic].

"And you know like I fell in love, I made friends and I found self love."

Liberty and Jake were one of the favourite couples to win before their romance fell apart in the final week.

They coupled up during the first episode and stayed together all the way through the series, with Jake even resisting the temptations of Casa Amor.

However, it was later revealed at movie night that Jake had been egging the other boys on - and the girls saw clip of him admitting he didn't want to "tear her clothes off".

It seemed to send the pair on a downward spiral, which ended with Liberty giving him the boot with just days to go before the final.

Both Liberty and Jake then decided to quit the show and left the other four couples to enjoy their final days in the villa.
