Irish Love Island star takes swipe at villa mates after being dumped from show
Irish Love Island star Billykiss Azeez has taken a savage swipe at her villa mates after she was dumped from the show. Billykiss' journey came to an abrupt end on Wednesday night when her fellow Islanders chose to send her packing. The Irish content creator has now spoken out following her departure and disclosed what one solid pairing are genuinely like away from the cameras. "My dumping was very interesting. Within the top four was Ty who was getting to know Angel, and Cach who was getting to know me. I feel like that must've been such an awkward and uncomfortable conversation for them," Billykiss confessed. "I'd like Angel and Ty to win. Ty is literally the sweetest person ever and the same goes for Angel. They genuinely really like each other." Billykiss Azeez (Image: ITV/Shutterstock) Taking a veiled swipe at some of the villa's remaining partnerships, she added: "I could see them really blossoming, which can't be said for some of the other couples. But I can see Ty and Angel having longevity." Despite Cach seeming conflicted between Billykiss and Toni, Billykiss hasn't dismissed the possibility of a future with him once the series concludes. "Something could definitely have blossomed into something beautiful with Cach, but at the same time, if we were meant to be together in the villa, I'd still be there," she expressed. "I have so much love and respect for him as a human being. I think we'll still be really good friends on the outside. In terms of a romantic aspect, who knows." Speaking about her Love Island experience, she said: "It wasn't a rollercoaster as such, more of a wave in the way it went up and down. "The festival was really good, Meg and I got a little shout out from Tinie Tempah! Overall I had a very fun experience. "I laughed so much that I cried and those are the moments I'll take home with me. I don't regret anything or any decision I made throughout my journey and everything panned out the way it was supposed to. "It helped me build character and grow and develop as a person, and I have love for everyone who was part of my journey."

Could Rosie O'Donnell run for president?
Could Rosie O'Donnell's name appear on the ballot paper this November? Bookies aren't ruling it out! The comedian and actress has been living in Ireland with her child, Clay, since January, after Donald Trump, with whom she has been in a very public feud, was re-elected for a second term in the 2024 Presidential election. Now, Ladbrokes are saying Rosie could put herself forward for Irish presidency, especially since she is seeking Irish citizenship through descent, which would make her eligible. Rosie O'Donnell. Pic:for ELLE Punters seem to have taken to O'Donnell, who has been outspoken about her love for Ireland. She is currently 10/1 to run in the election in November. Ladbrokes spokesperson Cal Gildart said: 'Rosie O'Donnell has really captured the hearts and minds of the Irish people. 'Her endearing charm has led punters to back her for a run at the presidency. We may see her appearing on a ballot paper in November.' Rosie O'Donnell. Pic: MediaPunch/REX/Shutterstock Speaking on Ireland AM earlier this month, Rosie explained that she feels 'so much safer' in Ireland. She said: 'It's so much safer. In fact, [Clay's] with friends walking places now. And when I was first here, they were telling me when we were looking for places to stay and live, they were like 'oh [it's] a great place because they'll be able to take their back to school.' 'And I was like 'over my dead body, they're not riding a bike to school.' And now they're able to do that. It's just such a different culture and different feeling of safety for Clay as well as me.' So far, only Independent TD Catherine Connolly and Fine Gael's Mairead McGuinness have officially anounced their presidential bid.
