thank god they sent Nigel home. When I was on Reddit this morning, I actually saw a post from Nigel's ex and it was just a post of screenshots of the last couple texts that she had got to him before he went to Fiji. I'll post them here so this is the first one pause to read. And the beginning of the second one just says disclaimer: drunken text. Goes into this. Stonewalled, gaslit, raised my voice like what are you doing? He sounds sick, like he sounds evil in the last part of this message. I think this whole thing about wishing someone happiness is an abundance is kind of a lie given your first text to them. I already thought he was like a little weird and he like went off kind of on live just for choosing him but not making him feel like he was chosen. Please Love Island Peacock, y'all just need to do like a tiny bit better of vetting. Like two seasons ago there was this guy that came in from Casa and he was coupled up with Deb and he left in the middle of the night. Ian never said anything about it and I did a little bit more digging and it was because a bunch of girls from his hometown actually saw him on Love Island and reported him for SA. Multiple girls could have saved all that time had you just done more vetting. Not that this is like illegal or anything like that but would have loved to know this. Just do better vetting.
