Rheo Parnell entered Love Island on day 27 of the 12th series during the infamous Casa Amor twist.
While on the show, the 26-year-old ring girl got to know semi-footballer Harry, 30.
At first, he tried to stay respectful to Helena Ford by sleeping on the daybeds as he was joined on the show by his ex-girlfriend Emma Munro.
However, after it was revealed that he cheated on his girlfriend, fans wondered if he went back to his old ways by getting to know Rheo.
The pair were seen kissing in bed as Harry made fans feel sick when he told her that he would give her an orgasm.
Teasing sex in their future, he also remarked: "I think we'll maybe see sooner than you think."
Now Rheo is having her say on the situation after Harry chose to come back to the main villa alone and stay in a couple with Helena.
Maya asked the star if she was surprised not to be brought back from Casa Amor.
She replied: "to be honest, I was as shocked as the rest of the nation, like, it's Harry, to be fair, what did I expect?
"But I was actually a bit shocked with him, because we did get deep. Harry has a deep level."

She then found humour in the situation as exclaimed: "I found it like we're going for that one."
Rheo added: "But I was shocked, also not shocked, because he's playing a game, like that big game."
Maya then asked what sort of a game he was playing, to which Rheo explained: "I think he wanted to repair his reputation there.
"Just go in, go with Helena, and hopefully get to the end. I know he's got a game plan."

The presenter then brought up the movie night twist as Rheo interjected: "I feel like he got off scott free.
"Do you understand how much went on that wasn't like in that movie night? I was begging."
The host then asked what it was that viewers didn't see and Rheo stated "I mean, I can tell you all sorts."
"[He said] stuff, like; 'Our chats with you are just so different. With Helena, it's only ever sexual with her. This is so much better. I could take back to my mother'.
She added: But all this stuff like running his mouth, you know. Harry strikes again. I said it like he does."

MasterChef's John Torode confirms he was accused of racism in Wallace review
The report, commissioned by MasterChef production company Banijay UK and led by law firm Lewis Silkin, found 45 out of 83 allegations against Wallace were substantiated, alongside two standalone allegations made against other people, including one for using racist language. In a post on Instagram, Torode confirmed he was the person alleged to have used racist language but said he had 'no recollection of the incident' and was 'shocked and saddened' by the allegation. A post shared by John Torode (@johntorodecooks) His statement said: 'Following publication of the Executive Summary of the investigation into Gregg Wallace while working on MasterChef, I am aware of speculation that I am one of the two other individuals against whom an allegation has been upheld. 'For the sake of transparency, I confirm that I am the individual who is alleged to have used racial language on one occasion. 'The allegation is that I did so sometime in 2018 or 2019, in a social situation, and that the person I was speaking with did not believe that it was intended in a malicious way and that I apologised immediately afterwards. 'I have absolutely no recollection of any of this, and I do not believe that it happened. However, I want to be clear that I've always had the view that any racial language is wholly unacceptable in any environment. 'I'm shocked and saddened by the allegation as I would never wish to cause anyone any offence.' Reports in The Sun said Torode had been asked to leave the show and claim he had mental health issues following the allegation. It comes after Wallace said he was 'deeply sorry for any distress caused' and that he 'never set out to harm or humiliate' in the wake of the report, which included one allegation of 'unwelcome physical contact' that was upheld. In November 2024, the show's production company, Banijay UK, announced that Wallace, 60, would step away from his role on MasterChef while historical allegations of misconduct were investigated. In a statement to the PA news agency, he said: 'For eight months, my family and I have lived under a cloud. Trial by media, fuelled by rumour and clickbait. 'None of the serious allegations against me were upheld. I challenged the remaining issue of unwanted touching but have had to accept a difference in perception, and I am deeply sorry for any distress caused. It was never intended.' The report found that the 'majority of the allegations against Mr Wallace (94%) related to behaviour which is said to have occurred between 2005 and 2018', with only one allegation substantiated after 2018. It also concluded that the 'majority of the substantiated allegations against Mr Wallace related to inappropriate sexual language and humour', adding that 'a smaller number of allegations of other inappropriate language and being in a state of undress were also substantiated'. The report noted that during the course of the investigation, which was over a seven-month period, Wallace was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, and said that the findings should be viewed in the context of his neurodiversity. In his statement, Wallace added: 'I'm relieved that the Banijay report fully recognises that my behaviour changed profoundly in 2018. Some of my humour and language missed the mark. I never set out to harm or humiliate. I always tried to bring warmth and support to MasterChef, on screen and off. 'After nearly 20 years on the show, I now see that certain patterns, shaped by traits I've only recently begun to understand, may have been misread. I also accept that more could have been done, by others and by myself, to address concerns earlier. 'A late autism diagnosis has helped me understand how I communicate and how I'm perceived. I'm still learning.' He praised the show's production company, Banijay, saying they had 'given me great support, and I thank them'. The former greengrocer added: 'There will be more casualties if the BBC continues down this path, where protecting its legacy matters more than protecting people. For my part, with full legal support, I will consider my next move.' Banijay UK said that 'Wallace's return to MasterChef (is) untenable' following the number of sustained allegations. Patrick Holland, chief executive of Banijay UK, said that while the report 'makes for uncomfortable reading', it also provided 'valuable insight to ensure that going forward everyone working on our productions feels safe and supported, and that inappropriate behaviour is quickly and professionally dealt with'. The BBC also said it has 'informed' Wallace that it has 'no plans to work with him in future', adding in a statement: 'This behaviour falls below the values of the BBC and the expectations we have for anyone who works with or for us. 'Although the full extent of these issues were not known at the relevant time, opportunities were missed to address this behaviour, both by the production companies running MasterChef and the BBC. We accept more could and should have been done sooner.' The BBC also addressed the future of a series of MasterChef filmed last year which has not yet been aired, saying it had not made a final decision on broadcasting it. Last year, a BBC News investigation revealed a string of allegations of inappropriate sexual comments and alleged inappropriate behaviour against Wallace by 13 people who worked with him across a range of shows over a 17-year period, including former Newsnight host Kirsty Wark. A statement from Wallace's lawyers at the time said that it 'is entirely false that he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature', as reported by BBC News. Ahead of the official publishing of the external review, Wallace claimed in an Instagram post on July 8, which appears to have been taken down, that he had been cleared of the 'most serious and sensational accusations' against him. The BBC has been approached for comment.
