'We should both still be in the villa!'

Omar Nyame and Tiffany Leighton's time on Love Island came to a dramatic end when they were dumped by their fellow Islanders.

Omar, 25, entered the villa as a bombshell, immediately treading on fellow Islander Ayo Odukoya's toes when he took Mimii Ngulube out on a date. He also later caused chaos when a row broke out between him and Joey Essex after the former TOWIE star found out Omar had been flirting with his then-partner Grace Jackson.

Tiffany, 25, also entered the villa as a bombshell and quickly found herself embroiled in a dramatic love triangle with Harriett Blackmore and Ronnie Vint. But despite winning Ronnie's affections, Tiff quickly realised "something was missing between them", leaving her single and sent packing along with Omar.

Speaking exclusively to new, the pair opened up about their time in the villa, friendships and that Joey Essex clash...

Hi, guys! How are you? Do you wish you were back in the villa?

Omar: Well, yeah, maybe I should be there.

Tiffany: I think I should be there with all those new boys now there.

Of course, because of Casa Amor, there are six new boys and girls. Who would you crack on with?

Tiffany: Blade [Siddiqi] is quite nice.

Omar: I don't know, I feel all the girls are nice. I haven't picked, but maybe there was someone that was before the Casa qirls [came in]...

Are you talking about Grace?

Omar: Amazing Grace.

Is it safe to say that you are waiting to see Grace again on the outside?
