Love Island may have ended but that's not stopped the show's secrets from coming out including the 'cruel' thing that happened inside the villa.

While viewers are often divided following the results of a dumping - they're either ecstatic that a couple has left or devastated that they've gone too soon - turns out that the Islanders in the villa are really going through it too.

On camera fans see the voting results, the emotional tears, the Islanders packing and then waving off the dumped Islander but it turns out that a lot more goes down that's not shown on TV.

During an exclusive chat with Love Island 2022 finalists Dami Hope, Indiyah Polack and Andrew Le Page they revealed that usually during a dumping the cast have to refilm scenes.

"We didn't have to refilm anything but with challenges there was a lot of stop, start to get shots," Indiyah explained.

But then Andrew added, "If you get dumped you have to walk out twice."

"That was cruel," Dami admitted.

"You get dumped, everyone says bye to you and you leave and then you come back again and say bye again just to get the perfect shot."

In the words of Andrew - peak!

Luckily the trio made it to the final which meant they didn't have to do the awkward dumping from the villa and instead they spent the final day (before filming with Laura Whitmore), getting their hair and make-up done.
