Mehdi Edno has admitted that he was keen to pursue things with another girl in the Love Island villa, following his shock exit from the show on Tuesday night.
Mehdi was paired with Whitney from day one of the new series, as it was down to ITV2 viewers to decide the first pairings. While initially it seemed that things were heading in a more 'friendship' direction, feelings started to grow between the pair, although their blossoming relationship was fiery at times. Love Island fans claimed to have 'red flags' from some of Mehdi's comments and accusations towards Whitney urging her to try and find a connection with someone else.
But it was Mehdi's interest in Leah, that seemed to come from nowhere, that nearly saw him and Whitney split, as Mehdi told Leah that he wanted to get to know her more. That opportunity has now slipped from his grasp, for now anyway, as Mehdi was the boy who received the lowest number of votes from fans in the latest popularity poll and was sent home in a double elimination, alongside Mal.
