Love Island contestant Molly Marsh has sensationally been dumped from the villa. The original Islander was booted off the show following the arrival of 2016 bombshell Kady McDermott who decided to couple up with Zachariah Noble.
After Kady's steal, Molly recieved a text booting her off the show, despite her growing connection with Zach in the villa. There were many tears as Molly packed her suitcase and told cameras she's be waiting for Zach on the outside.
Speaking for the first time since her exit, Molly said: "I didn’t expect Kady to have such a big decision to make so soon. But, in her defence, she had to do what she needed to do. And if I was in her position, I would have also chosen Zach because to me he is the best looking person in there, he is the guy that gives off the best energy. She chose the right person.

"I don’t have anything against her, she did what she had to do. She’s gone with her gut, so she couldn’t have done anything differently."
Asked how she felt when she learned she'd been dumped, Molly replied: "When I got the text to find out that I’d be dumped from the Island everyone around the fire pit was so shocked. No-one expected it. My eyes went straight to the word ‘bags’ on the text and I thought, ‘Oh my goodness, I’m going.’ I saw Zach’s face drop.
"And seeing Kady and Zach standing in front of me together, my heart dropped. I just didn’t want to see it but I understood it needed to happen and I trust in the timing of the universe and everything happening for a reason. So I knew it was clearly my time to go and if something good will come from me and Zach then it still will. If he finds something with Kady then that’s that.
"But everything happens for a reason, I don’t regret anything. But I hope something will come of it on the outside, because I’ll definitely wait for him. I want to see him when he comes out and I want to carry on where we left off, because I think there’s still unfinished conversations and more to get to know about each other."
She added: "I wish I’d spoken to Zach to say, ‘I’ll be waiting. I really want this to carry on.’ But no words could come out of my mouth. I was so speechless!"
