Love Island's Abi admits how she really feels about Mitch
She's been dumped from the villa
Since she entered as a Casa Amor bombshell, 25-year-old Abi Moores has certainly had a journey in the Love Island villa. Despite coupling up with Mitchell Taylor during Casa, the engineer had his head turned by the arrival of Ella Barnes, meaning Abi turned her attention to Scott Van Der Sluis.
As fans will know, things didn't quite go full throttle for Abi and Scott, with the pair being dumped from the villa just days before the final on Wednesday (26th July) night's episode.
After admitting she left with Scott as 'friends', Abi has now opened up about her true feelings for Mitch, confessing he didn't treat her fairly.
She told bosses: "Before Ella B arrived, me and Mitch were really good. I genuinely felt really happy with him and I believed it when he told me that he had tunnel vision for me. Mitch told me if I cut things off with Scott he would make things exclusive with me so I never doubted our connection and felt like we could potentially be something.
"I don’t see us being friends on the outside, I don’t feel like he treated me fairly, I think he could have handled things a bit differently. I don’t think he went about things in the right way. "
Air-hostess Abi also opened up about her current situation with Scott, after the group decided it was their time to go.
She said: "Initially, I came in with my eye on Mitch but Scott was the other guy I saw a potential connection with. When he showed interest in me, I wasn’t sure if it was already a friendship thing as he didn’t show interest in Casa. I’ve always said I thought Scott was good looking though, so it wasn’t a bad thing!
"We’re friends and are going to end this experience as that. I feel a bit disheartened and let down that there wasn’t a connection, I feel like he didn’t put enough effort into making one there. I trusted him by his words, not his actions."

Admitting how 'proud' she was of his bravery following the accident, Kaz wrote, 'It's been a hard 24 hours no one here speaks English and he was taken for hours at one point and I had no clue he was in surgery again. I've stayed in his room over night and just want to take him home. He's so brave and positive hopefully it will get better thanks for your kind messages.'
However, in February 2021, Theo confirmed the pair have now split, admitting he got 'slinged'.
