Love Island’s Amy Hart left devastated as her granddad dies while she holidays in Ibiza

LOVE Island star Amy Hart has tragically told of the death of her much-loved grandfather.

The ITV2 matchmaking show contestant took to her Instagram account to reveal she is, understandably, “absolutely gutted” at his passing.

Amy, 27, uploaded a sweet, smiling shot showing herself and her relative at what looked to be a family party.

Alongside, she posted: “Absolutely gutted, but very grateful that I had 27 years with my amazing Grandad.”

Amy, who left the matchmaking show after her romance with Curtis Pritchard faltered, added a black love heart to the caption.

Her fans were quick to show their condolences, with one writing: “Sending you love babe so sorry for your loss.”

DJ Toby Anstis, with whom Amy has been romantically linked, added: “Gorgeous pic.”

Another put: “Sending love to you and your family.”

One then continued: “So sorry for your loss, can’t even imagine.”

A fan then simply surmised: “So sorry for your loss.”

Amy is currently holidaying in Ibiza while the tragic ordeal plays out at home.

Earlier this summer, it was reported how the unlucky in love TV star was forced to leave Brighton Pride celebrations when she was told her granddad was dying.

In a happier twist, after visiting the hospital, she told fans on her Instagram Stories: “Right everyone, so I had to leave Pride because sadly we thought my granddad wouldn’t make it but he’s serving comebacks like Take That and he’s sitting up and eating ice cream.

“So now I’m on my way back and I’ll hopefully see some of you there.”

Amy, an air hostess, has previously told how she asked her grandparents Dee and Harry to pay for a boob job for her 21st birthday.

The procedure took her from a 34A to a 34DD cup.

Amy is currently soaking up the last of the summer sunshine in Ibiza – and showing off her amazing bikini body, too.

New images show her stripped down to a red bandeau swim top and matching knickers, which tied at either side.

Amy firstly dipped her toes in the water as she went for a walk on the shore, yet later bravely waded in further, so the waves lapped the top of her thighs.
