Love Island bombshell Matilda shares link with well-known EastEnders star
Love Island bombshell Matilda June-Draper shocked fans when she revealed she already knew islander Ronnie Vint but she seems to also know another well-known actor too
Love Island fans appear to have spotted a secret link with bombshell Matilda June-Draper and EastEnders star Bobby Brazier.
As the Love Island drama and romance intensified this week, two new bombshells made their grand entrance into the iconic ITV2 villa in search of ‘the one’. On Wednesday’s episode (June 19), viewers watched as Matilda and Konnor Ewudzi stir things up upon their arrival.
However, it’s not just fellow Islander Ronnie Vint that new girl Matilda has a connection with. The 24-year-old has over 11,000 followers on Instagram, including EastEnders’ Bobby.
Matilda also follows the soap star on the social media platform, with Bobby having previously liked some of her posts. The revelation of Matilda’s secret link to Bobby comes as social media users took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts on her existing connection to Islander Ronnie after he disclosed that she’d been dating his “mate for months”.
A third added: “This year’s Love Island is too funny like how many know one person like Ronnie. I bet there will be more girls for him in Casa Amor”.
As one of the latest bombshells to join the show, Matilda was treated to dinner by Islanders of her choice. Matilda decided to get to know currently single lads Omar Nyame, Sean Stone, and Wil Anderson.
Before her grand entrance, Samantha Kenny made a tearful exit from the show on Tuesday, following a surprise recoupling that left her single. Upon leaving Love Island, she expressed: “Obviously I am devastated to leave all of the girls behind but I am very excited now to see what my future holds and look forward to seeing what is next.”
“I was true to myself and didn’t feel like it was a waste of my time because I followed what I felt was right for me. When it comes to Joey, I think if I knew what I know now, I perhaps would have done things differently.”
Samantha’s mum also had something to say about her daughter’s departure, blaming Joey Essex, with whom Samantha had previously been paired, for spoiling her villa experience. She vented her frustration on the Love Island Instagram account, writing: “You ruined my daughter’s two weeks in the villa.”
