Love Island star slams show and claims ITV2 series ‘had its day a long time ago’ --[Reported by Umva mag]

A FORMER Love Island star believes the show has ‘had its day’ and insists she’s never watched a single episode. Malin Andersson, 31, found fame on the second series of the ITV2 reality show back in 2016, spending 24 days in the villa where she was partnered with Terry Walsh.

She told Bobby Norris on Fubar Radio: “I’ve not watched it. I haven’t watched a single episode. I didn’t even watch my own series. “From what I can see the format is the same and it’s like the luggage belt at the airport arrivals and they’re just spinning out the same characters. It’s the same old bag every time. It sounds really bad.” She continued: “I think Love Island has had its day a long time ago. And I think for the younger generation, there could be more put out there. I think all we’re seeing now is a lot of dating shows.” Mum Malin recalled her obsession in the villa with viewers’ perception of her appearance. She likened the experience to Jim Carrey‘s classic film The Truman Show in which his character is the central figure in a reality construct he has no idea about. “I remember being in the villa and I kept asking the producers ‘are there any bad comments about my weight?'” she said. “That’s all I cared about. ‘Are there any comments calling me fat?’ That’s all I remember asking them. “They would say no to everything. You’re in the Truman show in there. It is literally like a bubble. No time, they tell you when to eat, when to sleep. It’s such a different false reality.” Malin recently confessed to spending thousands on cosmetic procedures after leaving the villa.  She became hooked on Botox and lip filler in a bid to look perfect following her time on the show.  Relying on credit cards and payday loans to fund her addiction, Malin spent hundreds of pounds at a time. It included flying to Turkey for procedures including veneers, liposuction and breast augmentations – which at times went wrong and needed urgent treatment back in the UK. Eventually, Malin grew such a debt she was forced to use money left behind by her late mother, Consy-Gloria, in order to pay it off.  Speaking to The Mirror, Malin revealed her regret and said: “You think those types of treatments are minor – a quick £200 or £300. But I took out loans to pay for them and they were like small pockets of debt. I wasn’t worried about the money at the time.  “I didn’t care. It wasn’t like I was spending £10,000 on big surgery. But that’s the dangerous part of getting Botox and filler.” ITVShe was partnered with Terry Walsh[/caption] GettyBobby Norris quizzed Malin about the programme on Fubar Radio[/caption] She added: “If I didn’t have my mum’s money to fall back on, I don’t know what I would have done.” Eight years on from her time in the villa, Malin said she’s come to terms with the fact she had body dysmorphia. She called her obsession with lip fillers and Botox “addictive and ridiculous”, and has since become a spokesperson for body positivity.  “I became delusional and kept thinking I needed more and more adjustments,” she said. “In hindsight, I could have saved money as well as avoided some of the damaging side effects.” Now, Malin has found joy in life, losing lost six stone in weight and finding love with new Swedish boyfriend, Jim Sundgren, after meeting him at a wellness retreat.
