One Islander who had quite the rollercoaster ride on this year’s Love Island is Scott van-der-Sluis. The footballing fitlord turned a lot of heads when he entered the villa and eventually coupled up with Catherine Agbaje.
Things were going swimmingly until Casa Amor (classic), when Catherine decided to recouple with Elom Ahlijah-Wilson. From then on, Scott found himself in friendship couples with Amber Wise and Abi Moores before being dumped from the villa.
But although he didn’t find love, Scott definitely earned himself legions of fans.
