Love Island star Alexandra Cane made her TV comeback just a few weeks ago, appearing as a contestant on Celebrity Coach Trip, alongside her villa bestie Georgia Steel.

And since then, she's been voicing her opinions about ITV's decision to air a winter Love Island in January 2020, and let's just say, she's not too pleased...

Speaking to The Sun, the reality star said, "As a contestant that's been on the show, it just makes the industry so much more saturated.

"It just means that more TV companies are having to bring out more shows to place these people on.

"There's so many characters and it's like how many people can you fit into the reality TV world before it like… I have a feeling it's gonna kill it off."

The 28-year-old went on to say the show had approached her several times to appear on the show, and she said she'd turned them down every single time.

"I turned down Love Island a couple of times before I went on the show, the same year and they finally got me ten days before I went on the show, so it all happened very organically for me.

"I didn't have time to get in the gym and train and look super buff, so I was just in there as me and I think that was the best thing about it."
