When asked how are things between you and Jessie? Olivia replied: "Me and Jessie are on good terms, my opinion of her and Will is separate from what I actually think of her as a person. I think she is a lovely girl but some of her actions were questionable, which other people felt too."

Speaking about her Love Island journey, she said: "It was an absolute whirlwind experience. I am overjoyed to be leaving with Maxwell just as we became exclusive. I found what I was looking for, so I’m excited to get home and see my friends and family and continue on my journey with Maxwell." Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm.
