I was on Love Island and here’s the real reason Tyrique has control of the villa
LOVE Island star Leah Taylor has revealed the real reason why Tyrique has control of the villa.
It comes after the professional footballer managed to convince Montel McKenzie and Sammy Root to stray from their girls during Casa Amor.
Fans of the ITV2 show were left lost for words when Tyrique told the boys to ‘test’ their relationships with Leah Taylor and Jess Harding by smooching Tink Reading, Amber Wise and Gabby Jefferey.
Many were confused about how he managed to get them to do it.
An intrigued Sam Thompson asked Leah and Montel how he managed to on the latest episode of the Morning After podcast.
The Made In Chelsea star said: “How does Tyrique do it? He’ll literally be like ‘stand up’ and everyone goes: ‘I’m standing up’. How does he do it?!”
Leah replied: “I don’t think it’s like that inside the villa though. It’s more just like… Tyrique’s like that little brother who like… he’s one of them where you’ll be like sunbathing and he’ll come throw water over you, kinda like that, so when he just tells you to do something it’s not that deep to people, they just do it because it’s just like… i don’t know!”
She added: “I don’t think he’s like a leader! That’s wild.”
Montel chimed in: “It’s not that he’s a leader. He’s just annoying.”
Leah was brutally dumped from the villa last week alongside her beau Montel.
Since then she’s been sharing the secrets of the villa on social media and opened up about the rules that the Islanders have to follow.
One fan asked her on TikTok: “Are they strict in there? Like what would they be strict about?”
Leah said: “There is quite a lot of rules. So I’ll just do one…
“One of the rules was when it was night time, everyone got ready for bed, you had to like wait upstairs to like all go down to bed together and literally I was always the first ready and most of the time Jess as well to be fair, so we just sat on the sofa and go to sleep or like laugh or nothing.
“There would be the odd time where, I don’t know about you but I’m such like an early bed person and like I just love being in bed.
“Anyway so we’d like sit there and like wait to be told to go down like that was one of the rules.
“One time I just had to go and get in bed.”
It comes after a Love Island feud has come to light.
Since getting her phone back Leah has pressed the follow button on Instagram for some of her fellow Islanders – but a couple haven’t made the cut.
Since returning to the UK Leah has failed to follow Ella Thomas and Whitney Adebayo on social media, while she made sure to add Kady McDermott and Molly Marsh.
Leah was closest to Kady and Molly while in the villa, and Kady was particularly furious after Leah was sent home.
Looking at Scott van der Sluis and Amber Wise, who remained safe throughout, she raged: “Is this a joke? You two aren’t even a couple.”
