Cheyanne compares Jacques to Liam in Love Island exit interview

Jade Hayden

She’s fairly on the money there.

Well, the Casa Amor recoupling happened last night. And it was, of course, wild.

Dami recoupled with Summer. Indiyah recoupled with Deji. Andrew recoupled with Coco. Tasha recoupled with Billy. Ekin-Su and Davide did not recouple even though they both explored their options, but listen, they’ll be fine – they’re going to win this entire thing.

Paige and Jacques also did not recouple with anyone new, despite Jacques sharing a bed, kissing, and becoming instantly aroused by Cheyanne during *that* pool moment.

Once his antics were revealed, Jacques immediately began to defend himself saying that Casa Amor was a test. Paige, however, said that she hadn’t been tested at all and that she treated the new boys as friends from the get go.

But what about Cheyanne? How is she feeling? Unsurprisingly, not great, honestly.

“It’s a bittersweet feeling. I didn’t want to remain in there after I’d felt a connection with someone and he remained in his couple,” she said in her exit interview.

“I spent the majority of my time with Jacques. We shared a bed together and I know he said he wanted to get to know me more. We’d kissed. Then when it came to the recoupling he stuck with Paige.

“It was a bit like the Liam and Millie situation last year. I didn’t know what he was going to do until the last minute. I genuinely didn’t have a clue so that just shows how much we’d spoken and got along.”

Cheyanne added that she spoke to Paige afterwards: “I mentioned to Paige afterwards it wasn’t personal, I just wanted her to know what he’s like.”

She also said that Jacques wasn’t the only man she was interested in in the villa, saying: “I did like Andrew as well. I thought he was quite good looking. When we were chatting there just didn’t seem like there was that vibe to bounce off each other, like
with Jacques.”

Following the recoupling, Paige asked Jacques whether he thought she deserved to be treated in such a way. She also told him to “stop huffing and puffing” as he had caused the situation. He retorted by saying: “At the end of the day we’re both single, and I think we forget that sometimes.”

Rough.

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on Virgin Media Two.
