And while Grace, 25, admits her exit was ‘brutal’, she is looking forward to the future with Reuben after a rocky journey in the villa with Joey Essex.

In her first interview after the show, Grace told us:“100% it was a shock, you have to expect the unexpected.

“They say that all the time. And I feel like you really start to take it seriously when things just happen which you least expect.

“I think it was the last question of the game and we were all getting really tired. We’d been out in the sun and then Josh got the text.

“I think I half expected it to be like islanders gathering on the fire pit and some sort of dumping. But it was just literally like, ‘you’ve got the least votes, pack your bags and leave the villa’. It’s brutal. It honestly is.”

Despite the initial shock, Grace said she wasn’t too worried, telling us: “Whether I made it to the final or if I didn’t, I was really pleased just to be there.

“I think, ultimately, what I went in for, I found. I’m enjoying my time with Reuben so much. So, whether it meant I left when I did or made it to the final, it wasn’t a massive deal in that sense.

“I’d found what I wanted so I was happy to go at any point.”

The couple are now planning to build on their romance, with Grace saying things are going “really, really well.”

“We’re planning date nights. I’m going to go and meet the rest of his family. He’s going to be coming to see my friends and family and just making it work,” she explained.

“He’s London, I’m Manchester. But I’m hoping to move to London soon anyway.

“I’m really excited to get on the outside with him.”
