Following the news that Love Island 2019 star Sherif Lanre was removed from the villa after 'breaking the rules', former contestant Malin Andersson has revealed what REALLY happens in the process afterwards.

Malin, who appeared on the popular show back in 2016, was caught up in drama in series two, when Malia Arkian was removed from the villa following an explosive argument with fellow Islander Kady McDermott.

Recalling the moment, Malin told The Mirror, "They the producers are there all the time but on this occasion they ran into the villa to the garden. It just kicked off. It went crazy. Security rushed in and took Malia away and she was never seen again.

"To diffuse the situation they had to call Kady in to get her away from it and then somebody would have spoken to her in there and then it was reported back to the rest of us, we all knew what the real reason was. They don't tolerate that behaviour at all."

Of course, like the rest of the nation, Malin has absolutely no idea why Sherif was removed, but she did say it must have been 'serious' for bosses to make the decision.

Revealing the news, ITV released a statement reading, "After breaking the villa rules Sherif had conversations with the producers and it was mutually agreed that he would leave the Love Island villa.”

Sherif also issued a statement and said, “In a case of poor judgement, I broke the villa rules and as a result agreed with the producers that it was best for me to leave the villa. I regret that I didn’t conduct myself in the right way and, as a 20 year old guy, it’s something I know I will take on board and learn from. I really enjoyed my time in the villa and look forward to catching up with everyone on the outside."
