Tommy and Lucy were savagely dumped from the villa last Monday.
The pair joined Maya Jama on Love Island Aftersun tonight to address the infamous voicenote that has gone viral on social media.
Lucy explained: "So obviously, like, we've probably all done it... sent voicenotes to friends and obviously I really did trust that friend and with the Tommy situation, I was obviously saying he's a very nice boy and that's why I wanted to get to know him.
"I did say till the end, but it weren't the final, I meant the end... I would like to be with him in the future.
"Someone with really good morals and also before going on the show, my dad did say to me he's the kind of boy he'd like me to bring home because he's very respectful."
The Liverpudlian then apologised for her "rude" comments about Megan after she branded her a "f**king little slapper".
Lucy continued: "Obviously to talk about Megan as well, I should never have commented on someone I'd never met before, so I do really apologise about that because I'm not that type of girl and it was very rude of me to do that as well."
Tommy then tried to defend Lucy following the backlash she's since received.
He told Maya: "You said as well, at the time, we're all just characters on the screen to her.
"I know you were very excited to be going on one of the biggest reality show's in the country... emotions were high and you were speaking to one of your close friends.

"I think it's been blown out of proportion a little bit because I've said things to my friends in group chats, which if got leaked, it might have made me look like a bad person, but it's just to your mate, you never expect everyone to listen to it."
Maya insisted: "That's definitely not a good friend, I hope you blocked her after that."
Lucy admitted she's no longer pals with the person who leaked it.
The voice note, which was revealed last Friday, said: "I've got a phone call today by the way, saying they want to fly me out on Tuesday or Monday.
"So they said to me on Sunday they'll let me know for 100 percent, but looks like I'm f**king going on one of those days. So they were like, get your stuff packed basically.
"I was like, I'm already packed love. They asked me for my top three boys.
"I said, Tommy, I want Tommy. I feel like if I'm with Tommy I feel like I'll get all the way to the end.
"Because everyone loves him. I don't know if you've been watching it but that Megan's being sent home and I'm f**king made up.
"And she's being sent home because of the way she's treated Tommy.
"And do you know what, I'm made up that I've been watching it because I know how to act.
"Because she's being a f**king little slapper in there.
"The public have voted her out. So I just need to be left a nice girl and just f**king stick with Tommy."
Irish beauty Megan Forte Clarke was axed after her love triangle with Conor Phillips and Tommy led her to be voted one of the three least popular girls by the public.
The contestants then chose to evict her, along with Remell Mullins as the least popular boy.
After Casa Amor, Lucy walked into the main villa holding hands with smitten Tommy, who dumped Emily Moran to be with her.
Emily was left shell-shocked having stayed loyal to Tommy and given a heartfelt speech in which she said she couldn't wait to see him.
Tommy told the gathered Islanders how he had a better connection with Lucy; the pair had spent the past few days glued together sharing lots of kisses.
Sheepish Lucy admitted it was difficult entering the villa in such a "s****y situation".

Love Island's Harrison hits out over Women's Aid backlash – and reveals why he wishes he waited to have sex with Lauren
LOVE Island star Harrison has hit out over the Women's Aid 'misogyny' backlash, and revealed why he wishes he had waited to have sex with Lauren. Harrison quit the villa on Friday in shock scenes just 24 hours after Lauren was dumped from the show. 5 5 It followed his love triangle with her and Toni Laites, which drew criticism from charity Women's Aid. He even pleaded with Toni to pick him in a recoupling hours after having sex with Lauren. When Toni did choose him, Lauren was left in floods of tears and felt humiliated, and they ended up getting back together. But Harrison has defended himself again the Women's Aid backlash, saying: 'I have seen the backlash and it's hard to digest. I would disagree with a lot of it in terms of my respect for women, I do respect women. 'The worst has been from Women's Aid. I know myself and the girls on the show too, Toni said she knows I'm not a bad person, just went about situations in the wrong way, but the Women's Aid statement wasn't nice... it's not nice coming out of the villa to my mum upset by that so I would say that's been the hardest.' The soccer player continued to tell MailOnline that he is 'obviously sorry' to any women he hurt on the show. Adding: ''I got it wrong and the back and forth between the two connections caused more harm than I ever intended. 'It wasn't ever an ego thing. I am not proud of how I handled things and I'm not going to make excuses. 'I just want to own it. If people can give me the space to grow from it, I will do everything I can to be better and that's the only thing I can do. Fans slam Love Island's Lauren for 'embarrassing' move after she's axed from the villa 'There is no handbook for how to be on a show like Love Island. It's instincts and intentions. I got some of it right, but I know I got a lot of it wrong, and I know that now.' Harison, who was raised by a single mum, shared his dismay over the Women's Aid statement, given his close bond with his mum and younger sister. He said: 'Growing up, my mum was a single parent, so it was just us but then my stepdad came on the scene and now I have a younger sister. 'I would do anything for my sister and we're a really close family. That's why I am so disappointed by the way I handled myself in the villa because I pride myself on standing up for women and being a protector and honestly, my mum and my sister mean everything to me, I am hurt by how I acted based off those things. 'I only speak to my biological dad via text... I don't have a strong relationship with him in terms of seeing each other but we do speak. 'Naturally, I am a lot closer with my mum because she raised me, and we lived together but my dad is still on the scene it's just pretty rare for us to see each other.' And he opened up on why he wished he'd waited to have sex with Lauren, after they did so a couple of times on the show. ''I wasn't expecting it to make the show and it be a massive talking point. I have no problem with having sex on TV but at the same time I wish I would have waited,' he said. Adding: 'It's not been ideal for my parents and family to see. We have tried to skip past the subject but it's the elephant in the room. It's unfortunate they saw it on their screens. 'We know that cameras are on us 24/7 and we always knew there was a possibility of the sex being shown but there was no conversation from the producers prior. 'Me and Lauren were very PDA, on top of each other, in the best way possible, we wanted to be around each all the time, and it wasn't just a physical attraction. 'In bed, one thing led to the next, and in the moment, I didn't regret it, even now because it was very natural, but I regret the day after where I expressed feelings for Toni. 'I should have waited until I had clarity on the situation. We shouldn't have... but that's nothing against Lauren, I just still had feelings for Toni in the back of my mind, so I should have waited.' Toni begged him to stop messing with her feelings by continuing to flirt with Lauren during his time on the show. Speaking last night on Aftersun, Harrison said he felt the point that his romancing of both girls went too far was after he'd slept with Lauren. "I think maybe when we did bits," he said. "Probably took it a little bit too far talking to Toni after that. "I obviously regret that massively and I apologise to both the girls but, yeah, it wasn't good for me." He then said if he had his time again he would have had up front conversations with Toni and Lauren earlier to save them getting upset. It followed his return to social medi a at the weekend, in which he said: "Back on home turf and carrying every lesson with me. What a whirlwind, confusing, raw, beautiful in parts, and deeply humbling. I entered with the intention not to hurt anyone. "Truthfully, although I didn't manage that, I leave with a heart more open, and a soul willing to learn. Life isn't always easy, it's felt, it's flawed, it's full of growth. Thank you to those who saw the good in me even when I struggled to see it myself. This is just the beginning," But viewers weren't buying his latest apology, with one writing on X: "Harrison has CLEARLY wrote a speech and memorised it this is not genuine." Another said: "Harrison has gotten away with what he's done way too easily." A third posted: "Harrison's not sorry for sh*t." A fourth said: "Is anyone buying this with Harrison?" "Im glad no one clapped at Harrison's poor excuse of an apology." 5 5 5

Emmerdale icon Claire King signs new contract on ITV soap
Claire King, who plays the feisty Kim Tate, made a full-time comeback in 2018 after making her name on the show in the 1990s. The beloved actress debuted on the programme in 1989 and quickly became known for her devious ways at Home Farm. Now, The Sun has confirmed that the 63-year-old will be sticking around in the Dales for the foreseeable future after impressing bosses. Feisty Kim Tate will remain on Emmerdale. (Image: ITV) A source told The Sun: "Bosses love Claire and they are delighted that she's going nowhere. Kim Tate is one of the soap all-time greats and it's only right that she has a massive storyline." The insider teased that Kim will "stop at nothing to get what she wants" and upcoming scenes will "delve into who Kim is and where she's come from and see her rediscover that grit that" made her the character that viewers know today. In recent weeks, fans have seen evil Dr Crowley attempt to con the Home Farm millionaire out of her money, but Kim worked out his evil schemes, giving him a taste of his own medicine in episodes aired last week. As Claire left her role as Kim for a stint in the noughties, she went on to make it big in ITV drama Bad Girls and appeared on Celebrity Big Brother.
