When did Ollie appear on Love Island?
Ollie was on the ITV2 dating show in 2020.
He entered the South African villa and coupled up with eventual winner, Paige Turley.
Tough rehab ahead but I am confident along with my doctors I will make a full recovery.
However, he left the villa after just four days.
At the time, he explained on the show: “I have to be honest with myself, and everyone, that I do still love someone else…
“I have to follow my heart in this scenario and it would be wrong for me to ignore these feelings.
“At the end of the day, this is Love Island and it’s about finding love.
“If I carried on anything with Paige or any other girl that might come into the villa, it wouldn’t be fair on them.”
