Greg O'Shea has revealed that he was taken out of the Love Island villa and flown back to Ireland for two days in the middle of his stint on the ITV2 show.
The Irish native, who went on to win the show in 2019 alongside ex Amber Gill, was delivered heartbreaking news by producers during his two-week stint on the dating show. Greg, 27, discovered that his beloved grandmother had passed away during filming, and he was given the option to fly home for her funeral.
The former rugby player recalled being taken aside and told the upsetting news, explaining he felt 'like a fool' sitting in Mallorca while his family were at home dealing with the impact of his grandmother's devastating passing.
