I was on Love Island and it completely ruined my dating life – he’s my advice for the new contestants

LOVE Island star Coco Lodge has warned singletons heading into the villa that their love life will be completely ruined afterwards.

The 27-year-old, who caused chaos in the villa last year after entering in Casa Amor, has offered her words of wisdom – and has been very honest about dating.

In a new video, Coco told fans:  “Just so you know if you get out and you are single, it ruins your love life.

“I genuinely didn’t do anything or see anyone for five or six months when I first came out.

“Not until the other day did I go on a date for the first time and see someone. So just make sure you are aware that it will ruin your love life.”

She added:  “So make sure you get in a lot of fun before you go in or just hold onto your man really tight in there because it really screws your love life over.”

In the clip, she also admitted that no one really likes each other because they are all trying to win the show.

And she was very candid when talking about toilet habits, saying: “When you want to go for a poo in there, it’s actually really hard.

“I had to ask for a laxative from the medic team.

“But the trick is and the thing we used to do in the villa – I think it was invented by Ekin-Su and Paige – was to take something like a hair spray bottle into the loo so you have something to read when you poo.

“It really does help. Also, I used to just put my legs up a bit off the seat because that sends it straight down the spine into the toilet.”

Coco missed out on finding love in the villa after being dumped by Andrew Le Page when he went back to his ex Tasha Ghouri.

She later got axed from the villa alongside Josh Legrove.
