Zara Holland Speaks Out For The First Time Since Leaving ‘Love Island’
Former Miss Great Britain Zara Holland has definitely had a bit of a tough week.
After struggling to find love on reality show ‘Love Island’, the 20-year-old ended up being stripped of her title as Miss Great Britain after she got a bit steamy with a fellow contestant Alex, and it was aired on TVs across the country.
She was dealt the devastating news off camera by TV show producers, and she was understandably gutted - but decided to stay on the show. Not long after, she received news her mother was ill, and decided to pack in the show to be with her mum.
We can confirm @zaraholland11 is back in the UK due to her mum being taken ill. We will keep you updated and thanks for all your support ?

She has since landed back in the UK, and presumably read all of the press surrounding her on-screen romp and resulting dethroning. The nicest part of being away from everything on Love Island had to be that she was blissfully unaware of some of the less-than-kind opinions a few people voiced.
Since leaving she show, she tweeted a picture from the tearful moment she told her co-stars about her dethroning, saying:
This sums up how I'm feeling, but knowing I've got incredible support makes me feel very humble. Thank u so much? pic.twitter.com/gHh96MGWDI

But her fans were quick to step in and offer support:
@zaraholland11 You can leave that island with your head held high. The most genuine contestant there. Stupid Adam!

There were also some not very nice tweets but we’ll just ignore those, eh?
