Siannise Fudge is “mentally not as happy” as she was before ‘Love Island’.
Siannise Fudge
The 26-year-old beauty shot to fame on the first-ever winter series of the ITV2 reality series last January, where she and her boyfriend Luke Trotman made it all the way to the final, before losing out to winners Paige Turley and Finn Tapp.
But a year after she jetted off to South Africa, Siannise - who is still in a relationship with Luke, and has moved in with him - has seemingly expressed her regret at signing up for the show.
In an honest Instagram Q&A, Siannise asked her followers to make an assumption about her for her to respond to, and one fan wrote: "You miss your old life before all the fame from Love Island."
Siannise replied: "True. I was very content and happy in my life before Love Island and I feel like mentally I'm not as happy. If I could turn back the clock I think I would have made a different decision – and I don’t mean to sound ungrateful! Mental health & happiness comes first for me always (sic)”
Several fans then told the beauty she wouldn’t have met Luke if it wasn’t for the reality show, and Siannise acknowledged her boyfriend was “the only great thing” to have happened as a result of her being on the series.
Responding to her fans, she said: “Everyone is saying this. He was the only great thing to come out of it for me! Just wanted to clear that up. If I could have met him another way I would have.”
And in a third post, Siannise assured her followers she’s doing okay after they flooded her with concerned messages.
She wrote: "I'm receiving such lush messages from you all! I am absolutely fine, just been feeling a bit burnt out the past few days. I always like to keep it real on here and not fool you into thinking I have the perfect life and that I'm happy all the time.
"I'm only human, I have my days! This third lockdown hasn't helped either, I'm finding it difficult. But I'll be back stronger."
