Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, the 25-year-old model stated that Channel Nine ignored certain ‘incidents’ that occurred during filming of the 2019 season. Furthermore, when she complained to producers about her concerns, she was removed from the villa in Fiji.
“I was kept isolated in the beach hut overnight which is a tiny bright room with a chair and kept getting told I’d get let back to the villa for hours on end,” Vanessa said. “This didn’t happen. It felt like torture.”
Vanessa also revealed that she was the subject of relentless bullying during her time on the show.
“I did not suffer from depression or anxiety before Love Island. Everything in my life was going so well,” she wrote in a recent Instagram post, revealing she “reached breaking point” and tried to take her own life in March.
Vanessa’s admission comes just two months after Love Island UK host Caroline Flack was found dead of suspected suicide inside her East London apartment.
Late last year Flack had stepped down from her hosting duties after being charged with allegedly assaulting her boyfriend. She had also been dealing with intense media and online scrutiny.
