Love Island contestant Konnor Ewudzi reveals his reason for splitting up Grace and Joey, calling it a “holiday romance.”
Chatting to hosts Bobby Norris and Ellen Coughlan on the showbiz gossip programme Access All Areas, the reality star opened up about entering the villa and recoupling with Grace Jackson: “I went in there and I thought, listen, it’s only been two weeks. No one was fully in a couple, you know, two weeks of knowing somebody. So, I thought I just wanted to go pick who I wanted to pick. That was basically my reason.”
He was then asked if Grace and Joey Essex would still be together if he hadn’t split the couple up:  Personally, no, I don’t think so. I don’t think so. I mean, how I saw it, like, I’ve said it before. They kind of had a bit of a holiday romance in the past. I thought it’s going to be the same again this time round and well I think I was right in the end. Yeah, well how I saw it was if it didn’t work last time is it going to work this time.”
 
The 28-year-old bombshell from Cornwall revealed what TV show he would like to go on next: “So my mates were always taking the piss out of me because I was always in the kitchen, but Joey[Essex] makes me laugh because I’m in there doing just pizzas in the evening, cutting them up and Joey’s gone, “Konnor, you’re such a good chef. You need to go a master chef.” I was like, Joey, I’m cutting a frozen pizza up. It doesn’t take a lot of skill, no. But if I was asked to do it, I’ll do it. I love cooking.”
