Abi Rawlings is unrecognisable without her tattoos and dark hair before Love Island

LOVE Island star Abigail Rawlings has been spotted looking unrecognisable before having tattoos and dying her hair dark.

The tattoo artist – who has been turning heads in the villa after arriving last month – once sported short pink hair and had ink-free skin.

But old pics show her looking very different to Love Island

Unearthed snaps of Abi, 27, show her looking completely different to the grungy brunette that walked into the Majorcan villa last month.

One mirror selfie shows the reality star with much shorter, pink hair, styled into curls and tucked neatly behind her ears.

Looking every inch the girl next door, she pouts towards the camera and shrugs her shoulders, revealing no tattoo work across her chest.

Another snap sees Abi which much longer, dark hair flowing down her chest – showing she can sport any hairstyle with sexy success.

Still not inked, apart from small tattoo between her breasts, the star opts for the same kind of natural make-up palette as she does now, years later.

In last night’s show, Abi was seen breaking down in tears to new girl Mary over Dale after she chose him in the recoupling.

Abi’s choice meant Mary was forced to couple with Sam despite being interested in Dale, who the tattoo artist was also after following her dumping by Toby.

Abi was seen sitting beside Mary for a chat on the roof terrace before bursting into tears and apologising for what she’d done.

Mary caused shockwaves during the re-coupling ceremony this week when she didn’t even try to hide how angry she was that Abi coupled up with Dale.

The blonde bombshell was the last girl to choose her partner, and was left with Sam who was the last man standing.

Viewers were devastated for Sam as Mary admitted he wasn’t who she “wanted” to couple up with in her furious rant, while the other Islanders awkwardly watched on.

Dale is the second partner of Abigail’s that Mary has stolen, having already lured away semi-pro footballer Toby.

He brought her back from the Casa Amor villa after choosing her over partner Abi, who’d remained loyal.

But in a shock twist, Toby left fans open-mouthed when he brutally ditched both girls and decided he actually wanted to get back with ex Chloe.

This left newly single Abi and Mary fighting to secure a partner, which all came to a head in the recoupling on Tuesday night.
