André Furtado has revealed where he stands with Catherine Agbaje, after being dumped from the Love Island villa.
On Friday night, the Islanders chose to send André and Charlotte Sumner home – after they were revealed as two of the public’s six least favourite contestants.
In a teaser for Sunday night’s episode, Catherine looks visibly upset as she bids farewell to André – whom she has been getting to know for the past two weeks.
Speaking to ITV after his villa exit, André revealed: “I could tell in [Catherine]’s emotion she wasn’t happy with the decision.”
“Just before I left I told her she has got to have the most fun on this journey and remember what we all came here for.”
“Although I was potentially what she came here for she’s now got to look past that and make sure she is very appreciative and grateful for the next steps.”
When asked if he hopes to meet up with Catherine outside the Love Island villa, he admitted: “Definitely, I really do hope so.”
“The way that we clicked that second time was like no other,” André continued.
“Both of us opened up to each other a lot more, in a deeper and more romantic way – it was amazing to be honest.”
“If she does find a strong connection in the meantime in the Villa, I will be happy for her, but I will be even happier if it’s with me.”
Speaking about what attracts him to Catherine, André said: “I like the way she can speak on situations in an unbiased perspective. Of course she is a beautiful lady, but I love her charm. The way she carries herself is very attractive to me.”
“To be honest, I have no regrets. I know I could have done things better and acted on my feelings quicker,” André said of Catherine recoupling with Zachariah Noble.
“However, I felt exploring my connections in the Villa helped me gravitate back to Catherine a lot harder.”
“My feelings were a lot more intense towards Catherine, in a good way of course.”
“If I would have done that immediately I don’t think I would have appreciated her as much as I did afterwards.”
