Love Island star Malin Andersson claims that Love Island "had its day a long time ago"

Chatting to hosts Bobby Norris and Ellen Coughlan on the showbiz gossip programme Access All Areas, the reality star speaks about why Love Island isn't working as a show anymore: “I’ve not watched it, I haven’t watched a single episode. I didn't even watch my own series. From what I can see the format is the same and it's like the luggage belt at the airport arrivals and they're just spinning out the same characters. It’s the same old bag every time. It sounds really bad.”

She continued: “I think Love Island has had its day a long time ago. And I think for the younger generation, there could be more put out there. I think all we're seeing now is a lot of dating shows”

Later in the interview, Malin talked about her insecurities whilst she was on Love Island: “I remember being in the villa and I kept asking the producers "are there any bad comments about my weight?" That's all I cared about. "Are there any comments calling me fat?" That's all I remember asking them. They would say no to everything. You're in the Truman show in there. It is literally like a bubble. No time, they tell you when to eat, when to sleep. It’s such a different false reality.”

She also opened up about her struggles with drug addiction and her decision to go to rehab: “I was raped, right? And I was drunk. I was blackout drunk when I was raped. And subconsciously, my brain said, if you take some cocaine, you're still going to be aware, but you can have a good time. The cocaine will cover you up. So that was a coping mechanism, which I wasn't actually understanding. So taking myself to rehab was the best thing I ever did”
