'She's out of Love Island and I couldn't be happier'

After being eliminated, the greek chef posted a story on her Instagram page letting her followers know how proud she was of Antigoni and encouraging them to check out her music. She wrote:

My girl is out, she’s out of Love Island and I couldn’t be happier and I can’t wait to see her. I’m going to pick her up today, she’s so proud, she’s been wonderful. I know she would have liked to be there longer, but it doesn’t matter, she had a good time when she was there. And it’s all about her music, people, click on her music!

Antigoni's time in the villa

Though rather short lived, the blonde beauty shook up the villa when she was chosen by Italian stallion, Davide, to couple up. However, it was old flame Ekin-Su who snatched his heart after a shock recoupling leaving Antigoni without anyone to couple of with. Charlie Radnedge was also sent home after failing to spark a romance with any of the girls in the villa.

Right before appearing on Love Island, Antigoni explained that she was very keen on finding love after being single for a while. She said:

I’ve been single for almost a year and a half and for the whole of the last year my goal has been to have as many different experiences as possible. I really just want to say ‘yes’ to things. Why not? It’ll be fun. I’m a Cypriot girl and I love being in the sun. I’ve got nothing to lose!
