Former BA air hostess Amy Hart ‘quits Love Island’
Former British Airways air hostess Amy Hart is believed to have quit the reality TV show Love Island.
Hart, who resigned from her job as a Gatwick-based cabin manager for BA after eight years to take part in the programme, is understood to have walked out of the villa in Majorca last night.
Her decision to leave followed her split with ballroom dancer Curtis Pritchard, the brother of Strictly Come Dancing star AJ, who has been flirting with a new arrival in the Majorca villa, Jourdan Riane.
Hart was reportedly temporarily removed from the house last week to be given therapy following her distress over Pritchard. The scene where Pritchard split with Hart pormpted 200 complaints to the TV watchdog Ofcom.
The Sun quoted a source saying it was Hart’s decision to leave the show, adding that she has been given therapy and support by producers at ITV.
When she announced on Instagram that she was taking part in the show, Hart wrote: "Sometimes goodbye, though it hurts, in your heart is the only way to make way for destiny…..Doors to manual and cross check for the very. Last. Time.
"Yes after 8 years of causing havoc, hosting parties at 35,000 feet, channeling my inner Elton, writing hits such as ‘dead on the jumpseat’ and ‘five years gold’.
"Rolling out the Amz experience worldwide and being the queen of the party bag, I’m reluctantly hanging up my wings to start a new adventure."
She has since gained 673,000 Instagram followers.
