Like most of the UK now our office at TS Studios are glued to this year Love Island, but what happened to some of the former islanders. Here is Brett Staniland experience once he left the show.  

Former Love Island star Brett Staniland has shed light on the 'homophobic abuse' he suffered after appearing on the show last summer.

The fashion model arrived into the villa as a bombshell in 2021, and his quirky fashion sense soon got tongues wagging.

While Brett became very popular among the other Islanders as soon as he arrived, the same opinion seemingly wasn't shared among the public, who he claims bombarded him with abuse once he left.

Brett only had eyes for medical student Priya Gopaldas when he first landed in the villa, but after she claimed she got 'the ick' due to his quirky fashion sense, Brett was left red-faced when he arrived back to the UK where he was endlessly teased about his appearance.

The model, who also boasts a PhD in Applied Biological and Exercise Science, said he found it difficult to go out in public after appearing on the show due to the volume of abuse he received after returning home to the UK.

Brett said he found it 'very challenging' to go out in public in the weeks after his departure from the Love Island villa.The former Islander went on to reveal that he found it incredibly tough not to read the bad things that were written about him on social media as Love Island fans mocked him relentlessly.
