Love Island's Dale Mehmet confessed he’s attracted to Faye Winter and has promised to slide into her DMs when she leaves the villa.
The Glasgow barber, 24, was booted off the show on Monday alongside Abigail Rawlings after their fellow Islanders had to choose two stars to leave.
In a chat following his exit, the Scot remained upbeat about his departure and admitted he has his eye on Faye, despite sparks flying with Mary.
He said: “I can’t look at Faye and not smile. Genuinely she’s an amazing person. I came away from this experience and she’s the person that I had the strongest connection with."
Before he entered the Love Island villa, Dale confessed he had his eye on Faye and was attracted to her “attitude and personality”.
But he won’t be stepping on Teddy’s toes, and vowed to steer clear of anything romantic with her if she was still coupled up with him.
“She was definitely someone I found attractive, I love her personality. She was a real good friend, stunning person, she’s a really good, good girl,” he raved.
“But I’m a boys’ boy and Teddy was one of my boys. So I could never do that, as much as I found her attractive and I like her personality.
“I’ll slide into her DMs to say hi,” Dale quipped. “It’s not going to be, ‘Let’s go on a date’. She’s a good girl and Teddy’s a good boy. For me personally, on a romantic level, I couldn’t.”
He also discussed the other girls in the villa and admitted he was surprised by Chloe's outgoing personality.
“I wasn’t initially attracted to Chloe – her personality took me by surprise. She’s one of the funniest people I have ever met. She is so funny. She’s such an amazing person,” Dale gushed.
Dale also revealed that while Mary was his “type on paper”, it probably wouldn't work out.
“If you looked at my type on paper, it would be Mary. We had a lot in common. I feel like I’ll see her around. She’s a nice girl, gorgeous girl and I hope the best for her,” he added.
Despite only being in the villa for a short time, he said the Casa Amor boys - including Sam, Harry and Matthew - all had a great bond and would keep in touch after the show ends.
“It was a good experience to go in as a ‘Casa boy’. I enjoyed it. I went in with an amazing set of boys, we were good mates,” he shared.
Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub
