Love Island’s Tiffany slams show after she’s made to look ‘ditzy and vacant’ – insisting ‘that’s not me’
LOVE Island’s Tiffany Leighton has slammed the show after she was made to look ‘ditzy and vacant’ – and has insisted ‘that’s not me’.
The 25-year-old took entered the latest series as a bombshell on day 12, but was dumped nine days later.
Tiffany got herself involved in a love triangle with Ronnie Vint and Harriett Blackmore, but as the days went on she decided to just be pals with the semi pro footballer.
The beauty doesn’t think that her personality got to shine through properly and that she came across as a bit of a “weirdo”.
Speaking about her time in the villa, Tiffany exclusively told The Sun: “They did portray me to be like a bit like a weirdo that made dolphin noises and stuff.
“So I thought that the public kind of gave me a bit of abuse for that I mean, like I came across a bit ditzy, which I am a bit ditzy.
“I will put my hands up, but like there’s a lot of like I got quite a lot of trolling like ‘lights on no one’s home’, and I got a lot of abuse like about like my teeth and things. I think I was self conscious before, I got invisalign and composite bonding.
“Everyone was giving me hate for my teeth, calling me ‘teethany’. I mean it’s not nice.”
She added: “Everyone was like this girl all she does is just smile and open her mouth.
“I think it is obviously a very surreal thing in there.
“But yeah, the way they portrayed me is like I literally like have no personality, and that I don’t know how to have a conversation, and all I speak about is like raspberries.
“But I actually do like have a bit about me. I’m actually a normal person…
“I do have a personality.
“But yeah, on there. I don’t know what the producers were trying to do to me, but they were making me out to be a weirdo.”
Asking if she looked at the comments, Tiffany said: “I don’t have Facebook and I don’t have Twitter, so I don’t look on there, but on TikTok and Instagram and things, even people comment on my own pictures.
“So when I come out and I’m going on my Instagram, I can see the comments myself.
