Love Island's Patsy Field has shared the difficulties she faced in the Villa after struggling to find a match.
Patsy joined this year's lineup of hopeful singles looking for love on the popular series. However, she was dumped after just two weeks, when she failed to form a romantic connection.
"It was really hard. When you have a crush on someone you get that excitement, and I didn't have that," she told OK!. "There was no spark with anyone that made it, like, really exciting."

The reality star explained that she felt out of place on the show while the others were coupling up. "But really, I was just in there kind of like a spare part. It was like, 'Oh, okay. So now, what should I do today?' So it was difficult."
Patsy briefly explored a connection with partner Munveer Jabbal, but after a public vote left them vulnerable, the pair were dumped by their fellow Islanders. They later chose not to continue their budding romance.

"I have never been the one to want to settle down, I was 27 and still living that wild, like, party girl life. And now something has just changed, and I would like to find a guy and be serious with someone," she said.
"I'm in my lonely era. I don't do dating apps, though, which is weird because I went on Love Island, which is like the biggest real-life app ever."
"I thought that was, maybe, my moment to actually meet someone," she added.
Love Island airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
