Millie Bobby Brown and Paris Hilton have sent Samira Mighty messages of support since her ‘Love Island’ exit.
The ‘Stranger Things’ actress messaged the 22-year-old former Islander once she had left the villa, and Paris went one step further by sending the theatre star some perfume following her villa departure.
Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz at the Love Island Lates launch party at Thorpe Park, Samira said: "Paris Hilton sent me perfume – didn’t I die? I was, like, gassed, and Millie Bobby Brown from ‘Stranger Things’ messaged me.
"We were just talking and I was like, ‘You’re amazing’, and she was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m so happy right now.’ And I was like, ‘Ah, yeah mad.’ "
Samira and her boyfriend and fellow former ‘Love Island’ star Frankie Foster have received plenty of attention from fans since leaving the villa, and has admitted there have been some surreal experiences.
She said: "We went to Westfield, we thought, ‘Let’s just go there for an hour.’ We come back five hours later there were people crying on the floor. I nearly stood on someone’s head."
The West End performer has featured in ‘Mamma Mia!’ and ‘Dreamgirls’, and she would love Rihanna to play her in a musical of her and Frankie’s romance.
She said: "Someone sassy like Rihanna, Rihanna or Beyoncé."
Frankie replied: "Everyone’s been saying I look like Dean Gaffney, the guy from ‘EastEnders’."
Samira responded: "Maybe Zac Efron, you know, in ‘Baywatch’?"
Although the pair have been busy, they have been trying their best to keep up to date with current villa life.
Samira said: "The baby episode was quite funny, I watched Alex drop the baby and that was something I watched about 40 times.
"I was like, ‘Ah, it gets caught and everything,’ that serves him right for running with a baby."
Love Island Lates is exclusively at Thorpe Park Resort on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights until 1st September from 6pm-10pm. Visit www.thorpepark.com for tickets
