"The best is Nicola Oprey. There she is, look at her. She's just the best. It's beautiful."

She said: "[It should be about] all beauty. Even my Mum, she asked me, 'What if this bombshell comes in? How you gonna feel about that?' I'm like, 'Well, this is what I signed up for, love!' They're gonna be stunning." READ MORE ON LOVE ISLAND The influencer revealed the real reason why she turned down the opportunity to appear on Love Island in previous years. She shared: "Body confidence for me has been something I've worked on. "This is a show, which is why I had to make this a big choice of mine, in terms of thinking about all these things: am I ready? Am I in a part of my life where I'm confident? That's why previously, when I've been approached to do the show, I said no, because I wasn't ready." Motivational speaker Sophie said she has spent the last few years working on herself and rebuilding her confidence. Most read in Showbiz "I didn't feel good in myself. I still had a lot of inner work to do on me," she continued. Love Island 2025: Top villa snog spots "Now, I'm in a part of my life where I feel like I'm the woman that I'm meant to be. "I'm proud that I can say, 'I'm confident, I feel beautiful.' I think beauty is not just about what you look like. "You can wear a bin bag but feel beautiful. "It's more about how I'm feeling on the inside, and right now, I feel like I'm at my best. "I feel like I'm in a part of my life where I can handle rejection.

She said: 'The air-con was too strong so when I blew the fire out it blew back to me. It set me on fire. I just remember being in so much pain, I blacked out for a little bit. It's crazy. 'It happened in front of everyone and I had to get on with it as professionally and quickly as I could. As soon as I got into the ambulance, I was in bits." She added: That was a scary, scary time. I couldn't breathe by myself, I couldn't eat, I couldn't really see, it was scary. I was pretty out of it but on day two I looked in the mirror and just cried.'

'My aim was never to get awards or receive that type of attention. With the platform I have now, I feel like I have not only a responsibility to others but a responsibility to myself to be a better person everyday and to always be evolving.
