Speaking about the accusations that their relationshipwas a showmance, Jourdan added: "As much as there’s been loads of positivity and love and stuff, there’s also been quite a lot of negativity and I don’t think either of us would put ourselves through any more negativity and hate just for the sake of a picture on Instagram. It’s just not worth it. But I don’t really care if people don’t believe it because we know what it is." Danny added: "To a certain extent but then, you know, you’re in the villa for such a short amount of time, you only know these people for a short amount of time, so feelings aren’t that strong and now I’m at a stage with Jourdan where feelings are genuinely strong."

The group also joked that Danny was a bad omen after Yewande, Arabella and Jourdan were all dumped from the island after coupling with him. He joked: "Is it my fault? Yeah I’ve seen a lot of things on Twitter and Instagram circulating calling me the travel agent and I thought it was absolutely hilarious. Fingers crossed, now we’re out the villa, there’s no more bad omens and we can just crack on and be positive." The loved-up pair also revealed that they had even met each other's families, with Jourdan joking: "You kind of had no choice though, they were all at the airport, and then I went to where he’s from to meet his family."
