After her shock dumping last week, Love Island’s Joanna Chimonides has suggested that important parts of her time in the villa weren’t shown on screen.

Joanna arrived in the villa as part of the show’s Casa Amor twist and coupled up with Michael Griffiths, leaving his former flame Amber Gill heartbroken.

Amber then caused a stir by branding Joanna a ‘dead ting’ but 22-year-old Joanna has claimed that the pair later patched things up and developed a close friendship that producers edited out of the show.

“My personality wasn't shown as much throughout my time in there, but also mine and Amber’s relationship wasn’t shown enough," she told Metro Online.

“We really got along. We did each other's makeup and hair, and it would have been nice for viewers to see that."

Tommy Fury

Tyson Fury's little brother (oh, did he not mention?) Tommy has a bod to kill for and has already won over half the house with his sparkly, sparkly eyes. We predicted he'd enjoy a prosperous reign, but what we didn't see coming was the whole nation falling in actual love with him thanks to his royal treatment of GIRLFRIEND Molly Mae and genuine bromances in the villa.TOP SPOT FOR YOU, Tommy.

Ovie Soko

Ding, ding, ding – there's a new hottie in town. Ovie was head and shoulders above the rest of the Casa Amor competition – literally. The 6 foot 7 pro basketball player immediately caught the attention of Anna Vakili and women across the nation with his gorgeous smile, and quite frankly, PERFECT body. Anna has been playing him around in the villa, but he's handled her tantrums admirably and this makes him very, very, sexy.

Greg O'Shea

Just when we thought we'd been introduced to all that 2019's Love Island had to offer, in came three new bombshells just two weeks before the final – among them, charming Irishman Greg O'Shea. A professional Rugby player with a Law Degree who's studying for his solicitors exams, Greg has already won over the villa with "something about him" and his old-fashioned respect for the girls. With Amber currently facing a decision between Greg and Michael, we're team Greg 100%.

Chris Taylor

He may not have had much luck in the villa so far, but we can't help it – we've got a big crush on funny boy Chris. He's got a cool job, hilarious bantz and a face we could definitely fall in love with. We're almost hoping he doesn't get picked, so that we can have him.

Anton Danyluk

Ok, ok, so Anton's been a bit of an idiot over the last week or so by prioritising bantz with the lads over treating his woman Belle with respect. HOWEVER, it's clear he's embarrassed for the mistakes he's made in the house and we predict he'll do his best to make it up to her.

Tom Walker

DUMPED 27/5/19Former champion Michael was (notice the past tense) knocked off the top spot following the arrival of Tom Walker. You know, the model who rates himself "a solid eight" out of ten and says he gets complimented most on his jawline?However after his totally inappropriate comment about Maura Higgins in the hideaway he's dropped down a few pegs and despite his apology we're not sorry about it.

Jordan Hames

Another male bombshell and model, Jordan seems like a cheeky chappy who even had wonder woman Anna feeling "nervous" on their date. He describes himself as a "lads' lad" who is partial to a bit of "dabbling", and the general consensus is he's got hotter over time.Worth noting that he'd managed to keep Anna's attention even after she coupled up with basic adonis, Ovie Soko.

Danny Wiliams

DUMPED 9/7/19Danny settled in very well to the villa and Yewande Biala's bed, and he's certainly got abs you could cut paper on. HOWEVER when Arabella Chi entered the villa his head was totally turned and instead of being honest about it he withheld a lot of the truth from Yewande and the boys. So sorry Danny but liars fall to the bottom of our list.

Michael Griffiths

DUMPED 21/07/19Right, so we wanted to give Michael the benefit of the doubt mainly because we're shallow and he's pretty hot. But he has handled his recent Amber and Joanna love triangle with all the grace of a landlocked hippo and his constant accusations that everyone ELSE (except him, natch) is "immature" is so un-sexy. There's nothing less attractive than an ego-dented man flustered at getting caught out in the wrong, and this is pretty much all we've seen of Michael over the last week.

Callum MacLeod

DUMPED 7/6/19Our hopes were never too high for Callum, who ended up being the first to leave the villa just days in, but he was pretty easy on the eye.

Sherif Lanre

Booted 11/6/19Sherif has won us over with his heart of gold and his genuine adoration of Anna Vakili. We also actually really liked the shirt.Sadly Sherif made his shock exit on week two after "breaking Love Island rules". RIP Shanna.

Joe Garratt

DUMPED 18/6/19We don't want to be mean – but Joe just comes across as a little unfanciable. And despite catching the eye of current hottest totty Lucie Donlan, he's really coming across as v weird and uncomfortably possessive of someone he's known for just days.

George Rains and Marvin Brooks

DUMPED 9/07/19 and 12/07/19Both lovely looking lads, Marvin and George have been so utterly underwhelming during their time in the villa that we've failed to form any impression of their fanciability. Anyway, they're both gone now, so no surprises there.

Curtis Pritchard

Oh, Curtis. Curtis, Curtis.He started off at the bottom of our list, before swiftly moving up the ranks thanks to his romance with Amy but has no dropped riiiight back down after his unforgivable treatment of her.And with Amy now having been forced to leave after Curtis decided to crack on with her friend right under her nose, we're extremely peeved that he's able to continue enjoying his time in the villa, with no repercussions.We don't like Curtis.

Joanna also hit out at Michael, who just days after her departure confessed that he still liked Amber despite insisting that he no longer had feelings for her when Joanna was still in the villa.

She said: “When I questioned things, it was because there are always still feelings there when you split with someone and the fact he was denying it made me think, 'you're not being truthful'.”

“All in all I was disappointed in Michael.

“He couldn't be honest with me or Amber, it’s the lack of communication that gets me.”

Even though Michael attempted to win back Amber ahead of the most recent recoupling, the Geordie beauty therapist decided to couple up with new boy Greg O’Shea – much to the delight of viewers.

Joanna, who recently spoke out about THOSE Jack Fowler rumours, later took to her Instagram story to praise Amber’s decision, telling her followers: “I am actually really proud of her, I’m not going to lie.”

“That was probably one of the hardest decisions that she was going to have to make and she did so well. Good on her!”
