The 37-second recording, which Love Island fans claim is the voice of Lucy Quinn, lays bare a plot to couple with popular Tommy Bradley as a surefire way to make the final.
Now, Emily, who was coupled up with Tommy during her time in the villa before he chose to re-couple with Lucy, has shared her thoughts.
After being dumped from the show following Casa Amor, Emily didn't hold back when discussing the leaked voice note.
She said: '[It's] really not ideal at all. I just really don't want Tommy to get hurt, to be honest. He's a really genuine, nice boy.'
Emily continued to tell Heat: 'The thought of her going in there and doing it just potentially because she wants to stay there or because he's the golden boy, it does break my heart a little bit.
'Also, it's a bit sad on my side because we started to develop something really really nice and that's sort of ruined now for something that might not be genuine.
'From my side, obviously, it was genuine and from Tommy's side as well, I'd like to say, because he is that type of boy. It's a bit gutting, I can't lie.'
The person alleged to be Lucy says: "I've got a phone call today by the way, saying they want to fly me out on Tuesday or Monday. So they said to me on Sunday they'll let me know for 100 percent, but looks like I'm f**king going on one of those days. So they were like, get your stuff packed basically.
"I was like, I'm already packed love. They asked me for my top three boys. And told them, I said, Tommy, I want Tommy. I feel like if I'm with Tommy I feel like I'll get all the way to the end.
Love Island villa left in shock as devastated Emily is dumped by Tommy for Casa Amor beauty in brutal recoupling
"Because everyone loves him. I don't know if you've been watching it but that Megan's being sent home and I'm f**king made up.
"And she's being sent home because of the way she's treated Tommy. And do you know what, I'm made up that I've been watching it because I know how to act.
"Because she's being a f**king little slapper in there. The public have voted her out. So I just need to be left a nice girl and just f**king stick with Tommy."
In a dramatic Casa Amor recoupling, Lucy walked into the main villa holding hands with smitten Tommy, who dumped Emily to be with her.
In the most dramatic moment of the recoupling, Emily was left shell-shocked having stayed loyal to Tommy and given a heartfelt speech in which she said she couldn't wait to see him.
Tommy told the gathered Islanders how he had a better connection with Lucy; the pair had spent the past few days glued together sharing lots of kisses.
Sheepish Lucy admitted it was difficult entering the villa in such a "s****y situation".
When host Maya Jama told the group that Emily was dumped from the Island, along with five other singletons, Tommy broke down in tears.
The pair eventually went to the terrace to clear the air with Tommy admitting it hurt him to see her upset.
They made up and hugged before Emily exited the villa.

5 best record players, reviewed by an audio expert
There's something mesmerising about lowering a needle onto a spinning record. Vinyl record sales are booming, and if you're looking to start your vinyl journey, or you're thinking about upgrading an old turntable, I've found the best record players that won't break the bank. There's a plethora of budget-friendly record players available that don't feel like compromises – decks that blend classic appeal with just enough modern convenience to make everyday use a doddle. I've been spinning my way through a selection of the latest relatively affordable record players from a range of brands. They may differ in design, features, and finish, but all share one thing in common: they make listening to records straightforward and joyful. Some have fully automatic operation – just press 'start' and let the deck do the rest – which is ideal for those wary of tonearm technicalities. Others come equipped with Bluetooth, enabling you to wirelessly stream to compatible speakers or headphones, if that's more convenient than a traditional wired setup. You'll even find models with a USB output, making it possible to digitise your collection. I think the Audio-Technica AT-LP70XBT is by far the best option for most people, offering brilliant sound quality at a reasonable price. However, l've tested lots of other great options. Whether you're rekindling your love of vinyl or lighting the spark for the first time, I've taken a close listen to help you find the best record player for your needs. How we tested Each of the turntables on test was carefully assembled and connected to my trusted reference audio system, ensuring a consistent setup for every model. To get a true sense of musicality and character, I spun a wide range of vinyl: the atmospheric layers and vocal nuances of Björk, the sweeping dynamics of Strauss's orchestral works, and the brassy, chaotic joy of Stan Kenton's big band jazz. I used these records to assess these players by several criteria: Sound quality: The most important test of all. It's perhaps a little subjective, but my varied playlist helped reveal how each deck handled detail, rhythm, dynamics and stereo imaging – all qualities that matter whether you're a casual listener or a long-time collector. Resonance: Reasonance is any vibration that impacts sound quality, whether from the turntable itself or from the tone arm. I wanted record players that reduced this resonance. Tone arms: A tonearm holds the stylus, or the needle. I wanted a smooth, lightweight tone arm that was easy to place onto a vinyl without damaging the record. Cartridge: The cartridge houses the needle, also known as a stylus. It's how a record player reads a record. These can often be swapped between different turntables, but I wanted to check the quality of the included cartridges and ensure that they didn't skip. Tracking force: This is the amount of pressure a stylus needle puts onto the groove. I measured the tracking force of each deck and whether or not it could be adjusted to ensure perfect playback. Anti-skate settings: These settings stop the stylus from creating too much inward force as it moves towards the centre of the record, so I both looked out for and tested these settings Connection types: All the turntables included in our tried-and-tested lineup come with a built-in phono preamp, as well as the option of a traditional line out. Vinyl records produce a very low-level signal that needs special amplification and equalisation before it can be heard properly through speakers. Traditionally, this job was handled by a dedicated phono stage in a hi-fi amplifier, or a separate external unit, but a built-in phono preamp takes care of that for you. I wanted record players with as many ways to connect as possible.

However, the wheels quickly fell off for the actress as she struggled to get an answer to secure £2,500. The first catchphrase saw a man chop into a cauliflower in his kitchen, revealing cheese inside. After a couple of unsuccessful guesses, Emily moved on to another, which featured two men shaking hands over a loaf of bread. They then smashed it with mallets, but Emily didn't have a clue and cried: "What? These are hard!" She then moaned "Oh no!" before deciding to move on to another, but the situation did not improve.
