Love Island stars Millie Court and Mary Bedford both entered the villa as bombshells, are both blonde, and both make absolutely FLAMES outfit choices, but it turns out the similarities don’t end there.
In a spooky twist of events, it’s been revealed that they share matching tattoos which have a very special meaning.
The revelation was made by Mary’s best friend Arianna, who has been running her Instagram account while she’s in the villa, as she took part in a Q&A with fans.
When one of Mary’s followers asked, “Does she have tattoos?”, Arianna revealed that Mary has a tiny lightning bolt on her wrist.
Alongside a picture of the inking, she explained the significance behind it, “Mary got this tattoo of a tiny lightning bolt before she went in the villa so she always had something to look at and remind herself to stay grounded and that everything is okay and she will be alright no matter what 💘.”
