Love Island’s Rosie: “Having sex in the villa is natural”
When I was on series 4 of Love Island in 2018, I was coupled up with Adam Collard. I really liked him, so we had sex on the show. Although I have no regrets about what I did, the next morning I was so upset as I realised my dad was watching. I was sad for my family and disappointed in myself, so I remember going to the beach hut and crying my eyes out! But then I thought, “I am a 26-yearold woman and sex is natural”.
What viewers have to remember is that there are CCTV cameras in the villa 24/7, and as time goes on, you forget they are there – especially in the bedroom, as it’s the only private time you get. You can easily block the world out, just be in that moment, and forget where you are. Having sex with a partner is a natural progression for anybody. The more time you spend with somebody, the more you want the relationship to grow.
In Love Island, you’re together constantly. You are sharing a bed, having breakfast and brushing your teeth with that person, so it’s easy for things to move at a much faster pace.
My mam and dad have been married for 30 years and I’m his little girl, no matter how old I get, so it was hard for him to wrap his head around the whole thing – but he has since said that I’ve got his crazy spirit and if he were young and single, he would have done the same.
The producers don’t show so much of the “naughty stuff” any more, but I think Jake and Liberty have probably gone all the way! I think they could go all the way as a couple in the outside world, too. I also thought Millie and Liam could – but that might not happen now, after his antics in Casa Amor!
