Love Island's Millie Court has joked her bikini promotional picture for the 2021 series will "haunt me until I die".
The reality star, 25, poked fun at her poker straight hair and heavy make-up as she shared the snap taken before she entered the villa last year, ahead of the new series kicking off next week.
Millie uploaded the photo of herself posing with her hands on her hips in a burnt orange shiny thong two-piece which showcased her tanned and toned figure.
She teamed the look with gold stilettos, a chunky gold necklace and flashed a beaming smile for the camera.
Uploading it to her Instagram stories, she wrote: "This pic will haunt me until I die... Sorry but this just isn't it. Worst press picture in the history of Love Island award goes to me.
"What is my hair and make-up!!!! My friends told me when this pic launched everyone was saying who the f**k is this 40-year-old? Looks like a mum dropping her two kids off at the gate."
It comes as Millie's boyfriend Liam Reardon, has declared he would gladly go back into the villa and do it all over again – even though they are in a relationship.
The strapping 22-year-old Welsh hunk was crowned winner of Love Island season seven last summer alongside Millie.
The pair have managed to maintain their relationship since their time on the show and even live together in luxury home in Essex – moving under one roof last November.
But Liam has hinted he would merrily throw all that success away for another chance to enter the Love Island villa and flirt with a whole pack of new bombshell women.
With the initial cast of the 2022 series being unveiled on Monday, Liam took to social media to reminisce about his time on the series last year.
Finding an affinity with 22-year-old Welsh newcomer Liam Llewellyn, Liam shared a screen grab of the Masters Student and shared it via Instagram Stories.
He added a caption, stating: “Liam from Wales hahah go on son,” alongside an emoji of a face wearing sunglasses and a clapping hands emoji.
He then curiously added: “Honestly can’t believe how quick the past year has gone. How I would love to go back and do it all again” – adding a blue heart emoji and a desert island emoji for good measure.
Millie also seemed excited about the new series, however, as she also flagged the beginning of Love Island 2022 via her own Instagram Stories.
She shared a snap of a contestant named Amber Beckford – a 24-year-old nanny from London – and wrote: “Eeeeek!!!! It’s happening” along with a sticking out tongue face emoji and a flaming heart emoji.
She added: “I can’t b****y wait to watch. 7 days to gooo,” (sic) along with a clapping hand emoji.
