I was on Love Island when an islander tried to QUIT after Casa Amor recoupling – but it was never shown, says Montel

LOVE Island’s dumped star Montel McKenzie has revealed one cast member tried to quit the series after Casa Amor.

Montel, who won a place in the main villa with Leah Taylor, spilled the tea during a chat with ex-Islander Toby Aromolaran.

He said Tyrique Hyde was so angry with Ella Thomas for returning to the villa wth fellow Scot Ouzy See that he threatened to leave the show.

He said the boys intervened more than once to calm Ty down.

“Ty’s head was gone. He didn’t know how to think, he was trying to leave,” Montel revealed.

“We had to talk to him so many times and sit him down to get him to relax.

“I was saying, ‘Kind of chat to her’, because I spoke to the girls and how it all happened.

“I was close with Ella, she’s not a d*****d and she does like him a lot so I know she must have a reason.

“I was just saying give it time and speak to her and see what she says.”

Ella and Tyrique managed to get back on track withhin days, and Ouzy later coupled up with Kady McDermott.

Both Kady and Ouzy were dumped from the show on Tuesday night along with Amber and Josh.

Montel revealed that some islanders advised Ty to end things with Ella.

He said: “Some people were like, ‘Cut it off, she’s violating’. Scott was like, ‘Nah’.

“He was in a similar situation with Catherine and his angle on the situation was he was cutting (Catherine) off. So he was saying to Ty he had to do the same thing.

“I was a lot more understanding about the situation.”

Tyrique and Ella last night told one another they loved each other.

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITVX and ITV2.
