Tyla Carr’s dead granddad didn’t like Jonny Mitchell

Tyla Carr thinks the ghost of her dead granddad threw plastic in Jonny Mitchell’s face.
The ‘Love Island’ star is convinced her late relative – who sadly passed away just before she entered the famous villa over the summer – was trying to warn her off the handsome star by giving her a subtle sign while they were talking over crisps in the house.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, the 23-year-old beauty said: "I did have this moment in ‘Love Island’ when I was talking to Jonny Mitchell about Camilla Thurlow. And my granddad always said he’d give a sign if he didn’t like something or someone.
"So all of a sudden, I’m eating crisps with the hummus dip and on the hummus dip there was this clear plastic thing that fell off and I put it on the side of the bed and as we’re talking, he said something like wanting to go on a date with me.
"And I went: ‘Oh well, you never know, things change like the wind.’ And suddenly the wind blew this plastic thing straight in his face.
"My granddad was giving him a massive slap in the face."
Despite her granddad’s warning, the brunette beauty still struck up a brief romance with Jonny but then bedded ‘Muggy’ Mike Thalassitis 24 hours after the hunk left the villa.
Prior to entering the house, Tyla promised her granddad that she’d be a "good girl."
She said: "Before I went in there, he [her granddad] passed away and he gave me the best of luck and I promised I’d be a good girl.
"The day before he passed away I said to him: ‘I’m not going to do it if you’re still ill.’ And he said: ‘No matter what, you better go on this show. I’m really proud of you and whether I’m there or not, I’m with you every step of them.’ "
