Love Island star Mitchel Taylor is facing mockery from his former co-stars after announcing that he will be returning to his regular job. The ITV2 personality took to social media to share his luxury trip to Rome, seemingly as a getaway from the recent controversy he faced.
Controversy and Departure from Showbiz
The 26-year-old star reportedly caused a stir when he was expelled from a glamorous party and accused of making homophobic comments. Last week, Taylor addressed the controversy in a TikTok video, openly admitting his wrong behavior at a makeup brand event in London. Furthermore, it was reported that his agent dropped him, leading him to reveal his plan to return to his job as a gas engineer.
A Picturesque Getaway
To escape from the troubles of showbiz, Mitchel Taylor decided to head to the Italian capital, where he shared a joyful picture on social media. The image showed him on a rooftop terrace, enjoying the stunning sunset views while sipping on a glass of rosé wine. The caption "Well Needed Time Away❣" accompanied the post.
Ridicule from Fellow Islanders
Upon seeing Taylor's post, his fellow Love Island co-stars wasted no time in teasing him. Season 10 winner Sammy Root humorously asked, "You still got holiday left from work?" Meanwhile, Tyrique Hyde joked, "Ain't you got work??" And Josh Brocklebank playfully commented, "Back to work tomorrow!"
Mitchel Taylor's announcement about returning to his ordinary job has led to mockery from his fellow Love Islanders, who couldn't resist making jabs at him. It seems Taylor's attempt to escape the showbiz troubles with a luxury trip to Rome did not go unnoticed by his former co-stars.
