Love Island: All Stars contestant Tina Stinnes has opened up about Scott Thomas' shock exit from the villa, saying it "devastated" her.
Tina and Scott both competed on the 2016 season of the ITV2 reality show and recently returned for the second run of All Stars.
While the pair rekindled their connection from nine years ago and coupled up, Scott ultimately decided to call things off with Tina, before announcing to his fellow Islanders that he was going home.

When asked if she wishes Scott had done anything differently during their relationship, the reality star said: "I mean, shoulda woulda coulda!
"But everyone's going through their own things in their own head, and you can’t fault someone for what they’re going through and staying true to themselves ultimately."
Tina also discussed the possibility of seeing Scott when she gets home, saying she would "love" to.
"I said I would date him before, but I think that's down to him now!" she added. "I’m so grateful for the connection that I had with him and he was a huge part of my journey."
