Love Island's Jay Younger says villa has hidden tuck shop fans might not know about

Love Island star Jay Younger has revealed one thing that viewers don't know about the villa.

The Edinburgh-born contestant revealed there is a hidden compartment in the villa's kitchen full of food to snack on at night which fans don't often see.

In an interview with Digital Spy, Jay picked questions out of a glass and was asked: "What is something viewers don't know about the villa?"

He responded: "Well, I'm not sure if the viewers know that there is a big cupboard of food behind the kitchen so if you're really hungry at night all you need to do is knock on that door and ask for what you want and it's given to you."

A voice from off screen suggests its like a tuck shop, and Jay responds: "Literally whatever food you want it's on tap there. For me, it was chocolate rice cakes. I absolutely love them in the evenings or bowls of cereal. There's a big cupboard of food in there so if you want it, it's right there."

Jay mentions that this hidden tuck shop is something fans might not have noticed, but eagle eyed viewers may have noticed Gemma Owen disappear into it on Wednesday nights episode.

In the hilarious clip, Indiyah Pollock accidentally calls beau Dami Hope by the wrong name.

After Indiyah accidentally confuses Dami with Deji in a hysterical moment, Gemma can be seen disappearing off screen before emerging again with a full glass and straw.

During the interview, Jay opened up about the lessons he learned during his Love Island experience and the connections he potentially overlooked. "The biggest lesson I took from Love Island would probably be that people move at their own pace in terms of relationship building," explained Younger.

"I think I came in there and moved at quite a fast pace. I think Ekin and I matched each other's intensity in that way," he added. Jay realises he may have moved too fast with Ekin-Su and that it cost him a potential connection with another Islander who would prefer to take it slow.

"But we both realised, and I realised that actually I maybe overlooked a potential connection there with Paige, But that's the biggest lesson I learned is people move at their own pace romantically and in life."

Love Island airs on ITV2 and is available via catch up on ITV Hub and Britbox.
