Love Island’s Abi takes a final brutal swipe at Scott AND Mitch as she’s axed from the villa
LOVE Island’s latest casualty Abi Moores made sure she threw several brutal parting shots as she was dumped from the villa.
Abi found herself being shown the door alongside Scott Van Der Sluis on Wednesday night’s show following the latest vote.
Abi and Scott had landed in the bottom three couples, alongside Molly Marsh and Zach Noble, and Ella Barnes and Mitch Taylor.
Then, as they gathered around the fire pit, their fellow islanders were told to pick who to send home.
Abi and Scott were the couple chosen to pack their bags and leave – but they didn’t go without a scene.
Earlier in the episode, Scott and Mitch shared crossed words over Abi.
Abi was then ‘friend-zoned’ by footballer Scott, who told the boys it was a ‘weight off his shoulders’ to quash any romance between them.
But despite initially feeling miffed by Scott’s decision to end things, Abi clearly mulled things over and let her feelings known as she left.
Before walking out the door, 25-year-old Abi grimaced as she appeared to confirm she won’t be meeting up with Mitch again.
She told him: “See you… maybe… soon.”
Then once outside, Abi stood proud next to Scott and told the cameras: “I wasn’t meant to find love in the villa – it was just setting me up for something even better on the outside.”
Now, since leaving he villa, has gone on to say: “I don’t see [Mitch and I] being friends on the outside.
“I don’t feel like he treated me fairly, I think he could have handled things a bit differently.
“I don’t think he went about things in the right way.”
And taking aim at Scott, she added: “We’re friends and are going to end this experience as that.
“I feel a bit disheartened and let down that there wasn’t a connection, I feel like he didn’t put enough effort into making one there. I trusted him by his words, not his actions.”
Fans have taken great pleasure in Abi’s parting shots.
One wrote on X – formerly known as Twitter: “Abi deserved better! Both Mitch and Scott weren’t nice to her as well! Mitch needs humbling real bad!”
Another added: “Sad that the boys in there made Abi doubt herself and her worth when she actually deserves the best. Felt so sorry for her the past week.”
And a third said: “I really love Abi, she’s a really sweet girl – I hope she finds love out here.”
Abi had joined the cast of Love Island as a Casa Amor bombshell.
The pretty blonde was one of six girls who were sent in to shake things up among the original couples.
Abi was kept in the main villa by Mitch and things initially seemed to go from strength to strength.
They then went through a rough patch when she said that she wanted to get to know Scott, who had arrived as a bombshell.
The pair got over that, but then Mitch started to get to know Ella B. With Mitch going back and forth, Abi went on to make a move on Scott.
But they have spent the best part of a week debating whether their romance is moving too quickly – and whether Scott even fancies Abi.
It even resulted in Scott and Mitch finding themselves embroiled in a bitter row with each other, with fans asking bosses to step in.
On Wednesday night, Scott finally ended any romance and told Abi he just wants to be friends.
The gang were then called around the fire pit, before Abi and Scott were shown the door.
