Love Island stars issue warning to Irish contestant Megan ahead of new season

Love Island star Toby Aromolaran has said the reality TV show doesn't work anymore for people going into the villa just to have a platform. Toby, 26, was a runner-up on the seventh season of Love Island in 2021 and appeared on Love Island: All Stars. But speaking to us as Love Island revealed a new batch of contestants ahead of this year's series, including Dubliner Megan Forte Clarke, the UK star said people will be 'found out' if they're not on the show to find love. He said: 'I think the guys going in, I think you're going in there for love, really, you know? Because I don't think there's anything really out here for guys anymore. 'I think some girls are still going on, like, just trying to do, like, the platform thing.' All Star finalist and Dubliner Catherine Agbaje added: 'I feel like you still need to go in there finally, yeah, if your intentions aren't real or people sniff you out.' Toby said: 'Once [that] starts happening, people will turn on you.' Catherine added: 'Go in and try to find love. You can't plan your future.' Toby, however, admitted he found it hard to balance bro-code and friendships during his time in the villa. 'I would've said that you're in there for yourself, personally, to find love,' he said. 'At the end of the day, they're your friends, they're not going to be in your relationship. 'But also, I do feel like you need to sieve through and be like, 'If that's my best friend in there, I'm not going to go for his girl'. That's bro-code in a way'. Toby admitted: 'Someone's going to be sad, you just need to choose who you want to be sad!' 'Do you want it to be the girl, do you want it to be the guy, do you want it to be yourself? So, you have to just choose,' he laughed. The pair previously opened up about Megan Forte Clarke heading into the villa tomorrow night. The 24-year-old panto star has already been compared to former bombshell Maura Higgins. Speaking about Megan, Catherine said: 'Dubliners are friendly, and she'll get along with everyone. 'I'm just happy to see someone from Dublin again in the villa. I feel like you need a Dublin person.' Speaking about Megan, Toby admitted he doesn't know if English guys can deal with Irish girls. 'The thing is can English guys deal with Irish girls? You know?' 'Yeah, we're feisty,' said Catherine laughing. Catherine said being Irish going into the villa is a culture shock at first. 'I feel like obviously being from Ireland, going into the villa, you don't know what to expect, because, obviously you don't know it's a whole different culture out there,' she said. 'You know, it's a whole different set of rules. But I feel like she'll be fine, like I feel once you go in there yourself, you make friends with the girls. 'And Irish girls are such 'girls, girls'. So I feel like she will be a 'girl's girl', and that will stand to her,' she added. Catherine and Toby were speaking ahead of Love Island returning to Virgin Media Two tomorrow at 9pm.
