Former Love Island icon Antigoni Buxton revealed that she turned down Love Island All-Star role as it “didn’t feel right”
Chatting to hosts Bobby Norris and Ellen Coughlan on the showbiz gossip programme Access All Areas, the reality star spoke about her life after leaving the villa and being approached for Love Island All-Stars: “I did get a call to see if I was interested. At first, I said I would come in for a chat then I didn’t even end up bothering going because I just thought it’s not what I want to do. It didn’t feel right, it’s not what I’m after right now or what my soul wants or what I’m chasing. It was such a fun thing to do but it’s not my story.”
 
The 27-old-year old singer reflected on her time in the Love Island villa: “I always knew going into the show that I was to face the Love Island stigma when it comes to music. I kind took that on the chin. I knew that was going to be the case and I definitely have felt that. It’s quite frustrating cause people doubt my credibility.” 
 
Later in the interview, the 2022 Love Island contestant revealed her thought’s on leaving the villa after 8 days: “Normally it’s just not a good sign if you leave so early but thankfully, I came back to so much love and most people felt like I got cheated.”
She continued: “Anyone that says that they are purely going on there to find love, that is not the easiest way to find love.”
