During the chat, Grace grilled him on the things that were hidden from the cameras, and noted that she noticed Toni had changed up her nails, making her realise there were scenes outside the villa.
Tommy then explained: "They [the girls] get their nails done on the same day we had our hair cut, but in my five and a half weeks there, I only had two haircuts. So the girls got their nails done twice."
"Here's another secret as well. When we got our hair cut, obviously it would have thrown off the viewers a little bit, like 'how've they got haircuts?'"
However, the team seemingly had a plan to keep this going.

"So they made us pretend to cut each other's hair," he revealed.
"It might be in a little montage of getting ready, so I'll get Connor to sit down, and I'll just get my razor and pretend to be cutting his hair.
"I used to do it [with the razor] on, but then I cut a bit of his hair once and he went mad. I thought, sorry, I'll turn it off".
Tommy lasted just over a month in the villa before being given his marching orders – arriving on the show as one of the original islanders.

Where all the forgotten Love Island finalists are now after they failed to cling onto fame and fortune after ITV2 show
Find out what happened to some of Love Island's most famous faces rocky roads Where all the forgotten Love Island finalists are now after they failed to cling onto fame and fortune after ITV2 show WHILST reaching the Love Island final might seem like a golden ticket to fame and fortune and an endless career in the spotlight, things don't always go quite to plan for the Islanders. Despite most of the show's finalists going on to enjoy successful careers, including some as A-listers and multi-millionaires, for an unlucky few, they plunged back into obscurity just months after their time in the spotlight. 8 These stars all reached the final of Love Island but quickly disappeared from fame Credit: Rex Features 8 But what came to be of the once fan favourites? Credit: Rex Whilst many dream of the seven-figure deals that roll in for icons including Molly-Mae Hague, Ekin-Su and Maura Higgins - a handful of Islanders haven't been so fortunate. As another four couples head into this Monday's Love Island final, will they be set for life or will one or two of them fall victim to the curse of disappearing from relevancy like these stars. The Sun has compiled a list of the famous finalists who failed to strike it big and make an impact after their summer of love in the spotlight. Paul Knops 8 Hunky Paul came second behind Dani Dyer but soon faded out of the limelight Hunky model Paul was already well on the way to making a name for himself after becoming one of the world's most in-demand male models. He was even chosen to be Britney Spears' love interest for her racy 2016 music video, Make Me..., which saw him getting hot and heavy with the star. So when Paul strutted into the Love Island villa as a late entrant in 2018, it seemed like a no-brainer that he was on track to become a top star. Paul coupled up with fan favourite Laura Anderson after her split from Wes Nelson. Laura and Paul ended up making it all the way to second place - just behind Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham. But the pair quickly split up after Majorca and whilst Laura remained in the headlines and on TV screens, Paul's star faded just as quick as his time in the villa. Whilst his looks haven't faded, it seems the handsome fella prefers living a quieter life away from the hustle and bustle of influencer life. Love Island exes Laura Anderson and Paul Knops agree to move on in Christmas Reunion heart-to-heart Paul still models and his Instagram shows him picture perfect at all times with his new long-haired locks. Lana Jenkins 8 Lana failed to follow in the footsteps of the ladies who came before her When blonde stunner Lana was revealed to be an Islander on series nine of the show in 2023, she seemed like a ready made celebrity. She quickly found herself besotted with partner Ron Hall and they managed to make it all the way to second place in the villa. But despite Lana aligning herself with the same team behind Olivia Attwood, she failed to make a dent in the entertainment industry after her time on the show. Despite the expectation of big brand deals, Lana's commercial work was limited and it wasn't long until her romance with co-star Ron also crumbled at the same time her career stalled. Although she failed to hit the big time, Lana still boasts 500,000 fans on Instagram and shows off glam snaps from her plush travels around the world. She also runs her own home Instagram account to show off her passion for interior design. Josh Oyinsan 8 Hunky Josh's career hasn't taken off 12 months on from the villa Despite only winning the show last summer alongside then-partner, Mimii Ngulube, Josh struggled to translate his win into a long-lasting media career. When Josh and Mimii quickly split following their win, interest in the couple wavered and Josh failed to land any major gigs despite being crowned a champion. Whilst Josh has managed to land a number of paid partnerships on Instagram after the show, it pales in comparison to some of the brand deals landed by his counterparts. His passion for wellness and advocating for the mental health of young athletes has been commendable however and earned him a legion of support. Ched Uzor 8 Ched focused on fitness instead of fame Series six Islander Ched was another star whose place in the final did not guarantee a lengthy career afterwards. He found himself in a relationship with Jess Gale and the loveable pair managed to make it to fourth place on the programme. But their love did not prevail and they called it quits shortly after the show. Ched then found his own career disrupted by the Covid pandemic and he failed to land any big-money gigs. However, despite turning his back on fame, Ched has managed to carve out an online fitness business. Known for his impressive figure and muscly body, Ched has put this to use by helping his followers get in shape and achieve a dream body like his. Titled Shred with Ched, he has launched the app to become an instant personal trainer to people up and down the country. Some of the services that Ched offers includes one-to-one coaching as well as personally curated nutrition and workout plans for each client. Tanya Manhenga 8 Tanya now hosts nightclub parties after Love Island Like her co-star Lana, Tanya hoped that her time on series nine of Love Island would turn her into a money-spinning star. However, the reality was very different. After finishing in fourth place with then-boyfriend, Shaq Muhammad, Tanya struggled to replicate the success of the ladies who came before her after failing to couple up with a big-money fashion brand. These days, Tanya is living a single life after splitting with Shaq and enjoys a jet-setting lifestyle. Helping her travelling habit is her latest venture titled Grooves with TT. It is Tanya's own touring club night featuring exclusively Amapiano music. The star held her first club night in Manchester earlier this year with plans for an event in London next month before taking it across Europe. She also kept her post-villa income topped up with her own wig business, called Tay Slay Wigs. Lauren Richardson 8 Lauren has quit fame altogether and works as a PE teacher Lauren managed to make it all the way to the final of Love Island back in 2015. Despite being coupled up with Josh Ritchie, that didn't help her when it came to securing a top career. Whilst Josh has been a TV regular and shot to even greater fame thanks to his romance with Charlotte Crosby, Lauren quickly faded into obscurity. Heavily tattooed Lauren is worlds away from the typical Islander, with her Instagram feed showing a much more demure and laid-back life in comparison to the glitz and glam of the usual crop of ITV2 stars. Lauren hasn't updated her feed since 2021 and chooses to keep her life out of the spotlight. Exactly a decade from her time in the Majorcan villa, Lauren has shunned fame and now works as a PE teacher and nutritionist.

I married an older man for his money, I planned to milk him dry but now we're in love – trolls still don't believe me
AFTER matching with a sugar daddy online, one woman was shocked when their relationship turned from financial support into true love. Carrie, 31, matched with her soon-to-be husband on Tinder, planning to "milk him dry". 2 Randy, 64, and Carrie, 31, are now engaged after first matching on Tinder five years ago Credit: YouTube / Truly And while 64-year-old Randy admits he knew her intentions were financially motivated, he set out to change her priorities. With Randy hoping for love and Carrie simply seeking a sugar daddy, he joked that they would "see who comes out on top". And as it turns out, Carrie was able to "get the bag" while also falling in love. "Randy started off as my sugar daddy and now we're in love so I'm finally marrying my sugar daddy," she explained on the Truly Show. The couple first met on Tinder five years ago, with Carrie openly seeking financial help and Randy, fresh from a 25 year marriage adament to never marry again. Thinking they were both in the relationship for a fun time, not a long time, Carrie admits: "My first intention was to milk him dry." But when Randy told her to give him a month to change her life, she decided to take a chance. Randy claims he fell in love with his fiance within six months, and soon changed his mind on marriage. And despite people calling Carrie a gold digger, Randy said her honesty about her financial situation only attracted him more. Now, she calls him her "first and last sugar daddy", joking that she gets him a pack of gum for special occasions while he lavishes her with whatever she wants. I'm 32 years younger than my man - his son's only 2 years older than me & trolls call me a gold digger but we're in love Randy revealed that the most expensive thing he has ever purchased for Carrie was her engagement ring, popping the question in Vegas. And while he originally intended to elope on that same trip, the couple are now planning a big wedding with no budget. With no wedding date in place as of yet, the couple are enjoying the engagement phase, with Carrie already having signed a prenup. Randy shared that his bride is already in his will anyway. And when it comes to haters, the couple said they don't care as they are "having a blast". A-list age gap relationships that have stood the test of time Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble - 25 years The Kardashian matriarch, 69, met her younger man, 44, at a mutual friend's 40th birthday party in Ibiza. They've been together since August 2014. Sam & Aaron Taylor-Johnson - 23 years The director, 57, and actor, 34, reportedly met at a film audition in 2009, and were married by 2012. The pair share two daughters and Sam has two children from a previous marriage. Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley & Jason Statham - 20 years The model, 37, started dating actor Jason, 57, in 2010. They were wed in 2016 and have since welcomed a son and a daughter together. Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas - 25 years Catherine, 55, was introduced to Michael, 80, a film festival in 1996 and engaged three years later. Shortly after their engagement, the couple welcomed a son and married in 2000. The judgement is mostly from online trolls, with most people in real life simply mistaking them for father and daughter. Randy joked that he often gets a thumbs up from other men when they realise the nature of their relationship. He added that he loves the attention they receive when they walk into a room. More on age gap relationships Another woman met her husband when she was 19 and he was 41, and now they have a family together. And a 25-year-old woman shared the backlash she receives for dating a 76-year-old man. A woman who is dating a man 32 years older than her revealed that she is often called a gold digger. Plus, a couple with a 21-year age gap shared an insight into their relationship. People say how another age gap couple met is a red flag but they disagree.
