As we continue to get over Amy's emotional speech, here's everything you need to know about Love Island 2019's Amy Hart:

Who is Amy Hart?

2019 contestant Amy is an air hostess and cabin crew manager from Sussex. It sounds like love has been something hard to come by for Amy, after she summed up her love life with the song 'Tragedy' by Steps!

Just days before she was confirmed to appear on Love Island 2019, Amy posted a photo of herself on her Instagram page, revealing she's left her job as an air hostess.

She wrote, 'Sometimes goodbye, though it hurts, in your heart is the only way to make way for destiny.....Doors to manual and cross check for the very. Last. Time. 😬 yes after 8 years of causing havoc, hosting parties at 35,000 feet, channeling my inner Elton, writing hits such as ‘dead on the jumpseat’ and ‘five years gold’, rolling out the Amz experience worldwide and being the queen of the party bag, I’m reluctantly hanging up my wings to start a new adventure. Opportunities like this don’t come round every day and they’ll always need people to fly planes so, perhaps it’s not goodbye and just ‘til we meet again’. All I can say to my Gatwick guys and girls is thank you. Thank you for the laughs, the tears, the deep and meaningfuls at 3am and for being my family for the last 8 years. I love you all dearly and will miss you all. It truly is the best job in the world. Stick together, look after each other and fly safe.

Has Amy Hart quit Love Island?

On Tuesday 9th July, Amy made the tough decision to leave the Love Island villa, after ending her romance with ballroom dancer Curtis Pritchard.

Speaking to Curtis about her decision, she said, “I came in here and I thought I was going to meet some nice people and I’d probably date one of them and they’d be alright and then I met you and you completely turned my whole world around… We made each other happy… I want us to be best, best friends but we both need to move on and we both need to find someone that is going to make us as happy as we make them.

"Realistically for me, I’m not going to be ready in the next three weeks to meet someone else. Realistically for you, you will not be happy all the time here because you’ll always put me first because you’re such a good person. That’s why I love you so much and that’s why I want you to be happy. You are not going to be happy whilst I’m still here. So, I’m leaving today but it’s a positive thing because I’m going to go and start the rest of my life today… I’m going to let you go and you pursue whoever it is you want to pursue and hope that you find whatever you are looking for. Once this is all done we will have the best friendship you have ever seen in your life.”

Speaking in the Beach Hut, Amy added, “I have been on such a huge journey… I did not imagine that first night I would meet this boy Curtis that would change my life and change my mindset. I want him to be happy and I want him to meet someone else so I’m leaving here today not holding any grudges against anyone, not against Curtis, not against Maura, no one. I never thought I would fall in love, I never thought someone would make me feel so special that I would fall in love with them and I did and it makes me realise that that will happen for me again, just not in here.”

Amy Hart and Curtis Pritchard

Things seemed to be going VERY well in the Love Island villa for Amy and Curtis, with the pair being one of the favourites to win the show alongside Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury.

As the were dubbed the 'mum and dad' of the villa, things quickly took a sour turn when Curtis' head was turned by model Jourdan Riane during Casa Amor week. Despite sticking with Amy during the tense recoupling, the dancer come clean, telling Amy exactly what happened when she was away.

After creating a list of questions on her phone to ask Curtis, it looked like Amy was about to forgive him, admitting she 'loves' him.

However, after Curtis admitted he can't promise his head won't be turned again, the pair split for good, with Amy being left heartbroken

She said, "I hope that the girls won’t have the same taste in men as me but you don’t know what’s going to happen until you’re in there. I think you have to talk about it and really weigh up whether someone is amazing for you. They might not be and they might be better suited to someone else."
