Love Island star Yewande Biala has insisted that there are only two "genuine couples" in the villa following her shock exit from the dating show.

The 23-year-old scientist was dumped from the Island during tonight's round of explosive recouplings, after Danny Williams chose to fellow model Arabella Chi (despite previously insisting no one could 'turn his head').

But Yewande believes that a few of the Islanders are playing games and aren't there to find love at all.

"I think there are a couple of people in there playing a game - a lot of people aren't there for the right reasons," she said in her exit interview with ITV2, before going on to reveal to fans who she thinks are the real deal.

Yewande, who lives in Dublin, added: "I'd probably say there are only two genuine couples; Michael and Amber and Curtis and Amy."

She also reckons that Michael and Amber could go the distance outside of the villa.

"I love the way it started because the minute I walked in and coupled up with Michael, he said, 'There's something about Amber that I love so much'," said Yewande.

"I was friends with Amber and she was like, 'He's not my type'. Gradually you could see her getting nervous around him.

"The way it's developed is so organic, which is the way it normally happens on the outside. It's so magical to watch it happen."

While Yewande says she still would have coupled up with Danny as he was the only one she had a "connection with", the 23-year-old wasn't sure whether things will last between him and Arabella.

"A bombshell coming in, it's very hard and it's difficult to know their intentions," Yewande explained. "I hate it when a bombshell comes in saying, 'I want to get to know everyone', because that is a lie.

"You know who you're going for. She knew she wanted Danny. I feel like if he does get to know her, it's not going to work.

"There are so many factors - they're so different, and the age gap. You have to be realistic. He's just starting his life - he's only 21. They are in two different phases of their lives. In the villa, it's very easy to forget."

And despite her heartbreak over Danny, Yewande says the friendships she made with the Islanders, especially Anna and Amber, made it all worthwhile.

"I didn't know I would meet such amazing people and I didn't realise I would fall in love with such amazing people and I have, which is amazing," she explains, adding that she learnt how to "open up romantically and I can show a little bit of affection, which is something I struggled with in the past".
