Alexandra Cane has opened up about Love Island's behind the scenes secret
She was unlucky in love during her time on Love Island 2018 but Alexandra Cane has opened up and revealed some of the secrets behind the ITV show - including why we never see the contestants eat lunch or dinner.
When we caught up with Alexandra - who is an ambassador for Racoon Hair - she admitted it's actually to ensure that all the islanders are eating enough food.
Yup.
Check out: Here's what the Love Island 2018 contestants did before going on the ITV show
Love Island 2018 jobs before the show - CLOSER slider
Adam Collard
Before going on the show and dating Kendall, Rosie, Megan, Zara and Darylle, Adam was just a 22-year-old personal trainer and gym director from Newcastle.
Dani Dyer
Her dad is the infamous Danny Dyer - aka Mick Carter - but Dani, who has found love with Jack Fincham, is a 21-year-old barmaid from East London.The Dyer family have left London behind and have moved into a proper swanky Essex home.
Dr. Alex George
He was unlucky in love during his time in the villa until Alexandra caught eye, but outside, Dr Alex is living his best life as a 27-year-old A&E doctor from Carmarthen, West Wales.
Eyal Booker
After leaving the villa Eyal said he wants to kickstart his music career but before becoming a reality TV star, the 22-year-old was a model from London.
Hayley Hughes
She infamously didn't know what Brexit was (remember: does that mean we won't have any trees?) but Hayley is actually a 21-year-old model from Liverpool.
Jack Fincham
He's fallen in love with Dani Dyer but outside of villa Jack is a 26-year-old stationery sales manager from Kent.Yup. He sells pens.
Kendall Rae-Knight
She was the first to leave the villa after Adam shockingly picked Rosie over her. Kendall is a 26-year-old retail manager from Blackpool.
Laura Anderson
Laura knows what she wants and isn't afraid to ask for it and it's no wonder, she's a 29-year-old cabin crew member from Stirling in Scotland.
Niall Aslam
Niall surprised everyone when he quit the show after a few weeks but, later, he bravely spoke out and revealed he has Asperger syndrome.We miss seeing him on our TV screens and wonder if the 23-year-old student and construction worker from Coventry will go back to his day job?
Samira Mighty
Before going on Love Island 22-year-old Samira was a West End performerfrom London. During her time in the villa it was reported that she was 'being sued' for quitting her theatre role just days before joining the show. She's now in a relationship with Frankie Foster, who she met in the villa.
Wes Nelson
He dated Laura and swiftly (literally the exact same day) Wes moved onto his now girlfriend Megan. Outside of the villa the 20 year old is a electrical and nuclear systems design engineer from Staffordshire. Surprised? We were.
Rosie Williams
Despite being unlucky in love with Adam, who left her for Zara his now-girlfriend, Rosie is a 26-year-old solicitor from South Wales.
Georgia Steel
She caused a lot of drama in the villa and it shouldn't come as a surprise because Georgia is a 20-year-old performing arts student from York.
Josh Denzel
After moving on from Georgia in Casa Amor with Kaz Crossley, viewers were less than impressed with Josh (we don't blame them tbh). However, he's now happily in a relationship with Kaz and fun fact - Josh is a 26-year-old sports presenter from North London.
Megan Barton Hanson
She's been branded Muggy Megan following her time in the villa, but outside Love Island she's a 24-year-old model from Essex. During his career outside the villa, Alex actually kissed Megan during a music video.
Charlie Frederick
He wasn't on the show that long following his "relationship" with Hayley but outside the villa Charlie is a 23-year-old model from Plymouth.
Zara McDermott
She managed to turn bad boy Adam into her actual boyfriend AND he confessed he loved her on national TV. During one of her first scenes on Love Island Zara, who is 21 years old, revealed she's a government advisor from Essex.
Ellie Brown
She's cute and fiery (remember that row she had with Georgia?) but Ellie is actually a 20 year old business development manager from Newcastle.
Jordan Adefeyisan
He wasn't in the villa long (bless him) but Jordan is a 23-year-old model from Stockport.
Kazimir Crossley
Kazimir is a 23-year-old make-up artist from London and has actually worked with Stormzy and former Love Island stars Chris Hughes and Kem Cetinay.
Frankie Foster
He's now coupled up with Samira outside the villa, but before it all started, Frankie was a 22-year-old business management student and fitness coach from Cheltenham.
Darylle Sargeant
She comforted Adam shortly after Zara left but it wasn't to last. Nevertheless Darylle is a 24-year-old eyebrow technician from Watford.
Dean Overson
Poor Dean didn't find love in the villa (Megan picked Alex over him) but he's a 25-year-old a car sales executive from Burnley, if you're interested.
Charlie Williams
We really thought Adam would pick Charlie to go back to the villa but if you fancy dating the 24-year-old bombshell she's a tanning shop assistant from Bath.
Charlie Brake
Charlie is currently in a couple with Ellie and one thing we'll never forget about the 23 year old was when he revealed that he doesn't have to work. He's a socialite from Chelsea in London, with a very fancy house and multiple cars.
Savanna Darnell
She wasn't on the show for that long but Savannah, who lived in Casa Amor, is a 22-year-old singer and dancer from Sheffield.
Alex Miller
He came into the villa and was on a mission to couple up with Megan. Unfortunately Alex was booted out of the villa (and Megan moved quickly on to Wes) but he's still a 28-year-old structural glazier from Essex.
Grace Wardle
After her rocky time with Dr Alex and then getting to know new Jack, Grace was forced to leave the villa because she didn't get enough public votes. During her time on the show she said she'd like to work in a hospital but the 25 year old is actually a hairdresser from London.
Jack Fowler
He's arguably one of the hottest Love Island contestants from this series (if not ever). Jack is also a 22-year-old semi-professional footballer from London.
Ellie Jones
Jack's ex-fling Ellie came into the villa and caused a stir with our favourite Love Island couple but she's actually a 22-year-old customer service and office administrator from Kent.
Alexandra Cane
Make-up artist Alexandra, 27, is from Hertfordshire. Since joining the villa, she has caused a few heads to turn, but is currently very happy with Dr Alex.
Idris Virgo
He told Laura it was Jack who kissed Georgia (LIAR) but we're hoping no one tries to fight 25-year-old Idris because he's actually a professional boxer from Birmingham.
Kieran Nicholls
He may have joined the villa with Idris but Kieran is not a professional boxer, instead the 26 year old is a personal trainer from London.
Josh Mair
Josh, 21, is a professional DJ and, wait for it, bodybuilder. He says: "I DJ'ed at Zoo Project, I played on their boat party in Ibiza this summer. I've played at Birmingham musical festivals in the same line up as Stormzy."
Laura Crane
New Laura is a 23-year-old professional surfer who's been breaking waves since she was 16. She has represented the Great Britain team and taken part in the qualifying world series two year years running. Impressive.
Paul Knops
Otherwise known as Cool Paul, Paul Knops is the Love Island contestant who has actually SNOGGED Britney Spears. He used to be a carpenter and is now a model. Paul hails from the seaside town of Bournemouth.
Stephanie Lam
Steph is an account manager from Hertfordshire. She says about herself: "Personality-wise, I am always up for a laugh and a bit of fun. I am a very affectionate person and I'm a loyal friend and also girlfriend."
Sam Bird
Sam, 25, now Georgia Steel's other half, is a fitness entrepreneur and personal trainer from Norwich. He's no stranger to the spotlight, having trained Georgia Toffolo, or 'Toff' from Made in Chelsea, before she went on I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here 2018. Sam is the head trainer at the Core Fitness gym in Norwich.
She explained: "We do have to be monitored on what we eat just to make sure that everyone in the house is eating sufficient amounts.
"So nobody is going to get ill. Lunch and dinner were not shown because we had to eat certain amounts."
The reality star went on to reveal that the girls and boys ate separately during lunch and dinner so they could be monitored.
The 27-year-old star also revealed what the islanders do when they want to smoke, whether she was allowed to talk about what she'd seen on TV before entering the villa and how she managed to secretly tell the boys that England had made it through to the semi-finals at the World Cup. You can watch it all in the video below...

In other Love Island news, it was recently reported that Ellie Brown had a secret boob job just before Christmas.
A source close to the star told The Sun: "Ellie absolutely loves her new boobs – she’s a curvy woman and has always felt having bigger breasts would suit her more.
"She feels they make her body look in proportion and has loved showing them off in low-cut dresses on nights out.
"Ellie was keen not to publicise her surgery on Instagram as she has lots of young followers and wanted to be careful not to influence them in any way.
"She did this for herself and it has 100 per cent improved her confidence – she feels sexier and more womanly."
