Indiyah Polack, 26, rose to fame in the eighth series of the long-running dating show in 2022.
She came in third place with her fellow co-star and has gone on to have a huge career outside the villa.
The reality personality is the co-host of the official podcast, Love Island: The Morning After with fellow former islander Amy Hart.
Any contestant competing on the show follows a strict set of rules that have been put in place by the producers.
When going on dates or taking part in parties within the villa, usually the contestants are allowed only one drink.
However, Indiyah has revealed that she and Dami did break this rule on their first date.
"There was a bottle of champagne on the table and we thought it was there for aesthetics," she admitted.
"But we found out it was real and necked the whole bottle. It was fun for our first date!"
Because of this rule, the star admitted that the raucous group parties that are depicted on the show are far more tame in real life.
When asked about the villa garden parties, she exclaimed: "No they are not as fun as they look - shout out love island for making them look so fun!
Love Island star reveals life changing health diagnosis and reveals fears it will ruin career
"We're probably dancing for like 10 minutes and then we have to go and get on with our chats.
The star also admitted that she is still close to a number of stars from her series of Love Island.
When asked who she would invite to a reunion, she admitted: "Probably Ekin, Tasha, Andrew - even though he and Tasha aren't together anymore - he is a great guy.
She continued: "Jacques [too], Ikenna I'm still close to, surprisingly, and he's friends with Dami.

Gemma Collins left 'terrified' after being sent 'rat poison' in the post as TOWIE star ups security at her mansion following menacing letter earlier this month
Gemma Collins has been left 'terrified' after she was sent rat poison in the post as her stalking hell intensifies. The reality star, 44, is said to be 'reeling' after a package containing the toxicant was delivered to her Essex home. Gemma is believed to have reported the incident to police after a 'nasty' glittery note was also found inside the package. A source told The Sun: 'The package was really scary and she was terrified to receive it. 'It was delivered by the postman, but had no postage stamp on it. 'Gemma was worried as it contained rat poison, especially as she has animals at her home.' The reality star, 44, is said to be 'reeling' after a package containing the toxicant was delivered to her Essex home MailOnline has contacted a rep for Gemma for comment. It comes after it was revealed how Gemma was forced to call in police after previously being left 'terrified' by a nasty letter delivered to her home. A source close to the reality star told The Sun how the note detailed the twisted sender's strong dislike for Gemma. After the menacing letter, Gemma was said to have beefed up security at her mansion and police were investigating. Gemma, who was a car dealer before shooting to fame when she landed a role on ITV's The Only Way Is Essex, previously spoke about her experience with stalking. She told how she's had 'scary' people turn up at her shop in Essex and send her terrifying letters. She told how it 'played havoc on her mind' and was the reason she stepped away from her front of house work at her boutique in Brentwood. Appearing on the Daily Mail's Everything I Know About Me Podcast, Gemma said: 'No one would believe the bl**dy crap I've had to deal with. 'I've had a woman stalker that wrote me a letter in white gloves and wanted to kill me. 'You know, people would wish me dead. I'd get all sorts turn up at the shop. Weird. People are weird. And that's why in a way I came away from my shop in the end.' In 2019, Gemma was forced to move out of her home in Essex over stalking fears, with removal vans being pictured at the property at the time. She had been stalked by a man that previously fat-shamed her. It comes after Gemma recently told fans how she had been struck down with pneumonia as she explained her absence from social media. Gemma explained that her condition had been leaving her breathless 'really quickly' but due to medics diagnosing it as viral, antibiotics would be ineffective. She told The Mirror: 'It's shocking, I've had it now for over three weeks and I had steroids given to me by my doctor. It was DJ Fat Tony's wedding and I had to take them to get through that,' 'But I'm off them now and the sickness is really kicking back in. It's so frustrating because I normally have so much energy and I'm always loving life, but now I get really breathless really quickly and I feel like I'm dying.' Pneumonia is inflammation of the lungs, usually caused by an infection. Most people get better in two to four weeks, but babies, older people, and people with heart or lung conditions are at risk of getting seriously ill and may need treatment in hospital. Taking to her Stories Gemma shared snaps as she underwent X-rays while praising medical staff for their care. She wrote: 'Thank you to all the amazing doctors helping me your real life angels'. Announcing the news of her condition on Wednesday, Gemma shared a photo of herself in bed looking poorly in bed. She wrote: 'Hey guys sorry been quiet i have Pneumonia. I'm not as fast or on it as I usually am on the daily. 'I am still honouring my work commitments which is taking every bit of energy I have but will be back entertaining you all soon.' On her Story she added an update as she showed she was on a drip and had been visited by a doctor. One post that showed a drip in her arm read: 'I'm having to take it easy which is not like me very slow and get so out of breath and tired so quick.' WHAT IS PNEUMONIA? Pneumonia is a type of chest infection that affects the tiny air sacs in the lungs. The condition causes these sacs to be become inflammed and fill with fluid, making it harder to breathe. Pneumonia is caused by bacteria or viruses, with the most common being Streptococcus pneumoniae. It affects between five and 11 out of every 1,000 adults every year in the UK. Anyone can suffer from pneumonia, however, at-risk groups include: Babies and young children People over 65 Those with long-term heart, lung or kidney disease People with cancer, particularly those having chemotherapy Smokers Those on drugs that suppress their immune systems Antibiotics or mechanical ventilator use in hospitals also raise the risk. Symptoms include Coughing up mucus Fever Chest pain Loss of appetite Fatigue In severe cases, sufferers may cough up blood, vomit or have a rapid heart rate. Treatment is usually antibiotics, which may need to be given intravenously in hospital in severe cases.

A champion mum, love for doubles and punctual fans — my Wimbledon wish list
I had to wipe away a tear when Kim Clijsters won the US Open in 2009 and her young daughter skipped onto the court to celebrate with her. As more women return to elite competition after giving birth we need to see more of them being successful if only to prove you do not need to curtail your career to start a family. No mother has won Wimbledon since Evonne Goolagong Cawley in 1980 so it is about time — which sort of piles the pressure on Tatjana Maria, whose win at Queen's managed to be a fairytale without being saccharine. For a start, she had not one but two daughters courtside, the younger taking a nap, the older keenly eyeing the contest for hints to help her own game. The German's slice-and-dice style was such fun and so evidently infuriating to play against. And she is nearly 38. I cannot imagine the Wimbledon crowd doing anything other than warmly cheering her to get past the semi-final stage she reached three years ago. I have not quite recovered from Alexander Bublik, upon defeating Jack Draper at Roland Garros in dramatic fashion, standing up and being told by the on-court interviewer that he was tall. It's not easy conducting such post-match chats when emotions are running high but, really, it was so very awkward. And then we had Queen's, where the post-match vibe was to be seemingly deliberately flirty, so it is to be fervently hoped Wimbledon does not follow a similar path, which it won't for as long as they use Karthi Gnanasegaram, the best in the business for live tennis lowdowns. It took time for those with tickets to file back to Centre Court after watching the women's singles final last year but when they did they were treated to the most thrilling and emotional contest of the championships as Britain's Henry Patten and his Finnish partner Harri Heliovaara took the men's doubles trophy against the odds and through three nail-biting tie-breaks. Naturally the pair were invited to the champions dinner but their achievement was, astonishingly, ignored on the night and the All England Club only issued an apology after Patten raised a complaint. It couldn't happen again, could it? Well, maybe it could. The promotional literature and video for this year's tournament ignored Patten again, which is simply peculiar. Maybe the fact that this time around the men's doubles final will be staged at 1pm, before the women's singles showpiece kicks off at 4pm, will improve visibility, ensure more bums on seats and make it harder for the powers that be to be so starstruck by the likes of Carlos Alcaraz that they forget to laud homegrown success. The gender of commentators and pundits seems to matter to some people a lot more than it should. But for anyone who claims to be unable to listen to women describing sport, I would point them in the direction of the women's final at Queen's, where Sam Smith and Anne Keothavong provided for the BBC what was the most informative double act I have heard in years. The pair provided a steady stream of facts and figures and insight delivered with understated panache and just the right level of humour. It was so compelling, so mesmeric, so professional that all ensuing efforts from their male counterparts have felt a bit lightweight and sloppy. Smith and Keothavong should be given more airtime across both the men's and women's matches so we can all blink into the sunlight knowing exactly why the contest we just witnessed unfolded as it did. If you are a mixed doubles specialist it is fair to say you won't be rich, but if successful at least you can aim for a grand-slam title — although not in New York this year. The US Open has ditched the traditional format for a glitzy invitational event so we can all speculate if Emma Raducanu and Alcaraz are more than just a tennis couple. It is all a bit of a slap in the face for the specialists who are suffering by virtue of not being as famous as Casper Ruud and Iga Swiatek. And so it would be nice if the All England Club could show the mixed teams some love and offer them grandeur and a promise not to follow suit. Supporters who leave football grounds early are not really supporters. Spectators who take their seats during the second set are not really tennis fans. At least footie fans could have transport issues preventing them from staying until the 99th minute but at Wimbledon we know it's the turbot with champagne sauce. Please eat faster, but if that's not doable then at least support Draper in avuncular rather than desperate fashion.

Love Island USA bombshells dumped after brutal Casa Amor twist – as fans make plea to bosses
FOUR bombshells have been dumped from Love Island USA after the brutal Casa Amor twist. Fans of the hit Peacock show have made a huge plea to bosses after the shock shake-up. 4 4 As part of the long-running twist, the boys and girls of the main villa are separated. The couples faced the ultimate test as the girls were moved to a new location and a whole new set of bombshells entered. The host of the show - and former Vanderpump Rules star - Ariana Madix explained: "Think of it as starting from scratch." At the end of the week, the islanders decided whether to stick with their original partners or twist the relationships with their new connections. Viewers have since said goodbye to four of the contestants who have been left single by the twist. The show's official Instagram account posted a snap of the four dumped bombshells. Alongside the glam group shot, it wrote:"Casa Amor is officially over, and we're saying goodbye to CoCo, JD, Vanna and Zac. Wishing them all the best!" However, fans have since been left absolutely fuming as they think that CoCo deserved more time on Love Island. As droves of fans flooded the comments section, they practically begged bosses to put her back into the villa or into the next season. In a comment that was liked by nearly 29,000 people, one passionate fan wrote: "Coco deserved to be an OG or early bombshell." Love Island USA fans accuse show of 'scripted' storyline as Olandria and Nic are 'forced to date' in 'staged' scenes A second agreed: "I wish Coco came in earlier." "Bring my sis Coco back for another season. She's too gorgeous," exclaimed a third user. While a fourth begged: "Coco sweetheart don't be worried, I can see your future as my s8 love island winner so clearly." Someone else posted: "I wish Coco could've stayed." And a sixth added: "Make Coco an OG next season pls," alongside both a praying and a crying emoji. 4 4
