She is mutual friends with a number of ex Love Island lads including Wes Nelson and Chris Hughes.
She is followed on social media by EastEnders legend Dean Gaffney and Gary Lineker's son George.
MailOnline have reached out to Love Island for comment.
It comes after a surprise dumping saw four people sent packing during Wednesday's episode.
In a decision made by the public, Casa Amor Islanders Emma Draper, Hugo Godfroy and Blade Siddiqi were the latest to be dumped.
But the most shocking turn of events was original Islander Jess White being among those to receive the least votes and therefore also dumped, leaving Nicole Samuel and Mimii Ngulube in tears.
After a dramatic kissing challenge, Ayo Odukoya later received a text saying for the villa to gather around the firepit.
'Islanders, the public have been voting for their favourite girl and favourite boy, those with the fewest votes will be at risk of being dumped from the island tonight ,' a text sent to Grace Jackson read.
'As Josh and Reuben are the newest Islanders, they are not included in the vote.'
The Love Island villa was in for a shock on Wednesday when a surprise dumping saw four people sent packing
It was then revealed the three boys to receive the least amount of votes were Blade, Hugo and Ayo, while the girls were Jess, Emma and Jess Spencer.
The final decision as to who would leave was left to those at home, and ultimately Blade, Hugo, Emma and Jess were dumped.
Of her exit, Jess later said: 'It's a bittersweet moment, I always said if I made it past week one I’d be proud of myself, so to make it to week five is amazing.
'It was nothing like I expected, it was everything and more.'
Jess threw support behind her Welsh bestie Nicole, as she said: 'The relationships you form are so special, I'm so proud of everyone and think we will all be friends for life.
'I was like everyone's big sister but Samantha, Nicole and Uma were so lovely and people I hope to have in my life for a very long time. Nicole for the win, she's my little sister and best friend.'
Dishing the dirt on his connection with Grace, Blade admitted that while they were attracted to each other, the romance fizzled out.
He said: 'Grace is a great girl and although things fizzled out a bit towards the end, it was all good with us.
'In the end, we were slightly different people, as attracted as we were to each other we could only go so far, it was something we needed to find out and explore naturally, and that’s what we did. We had a great time.'
Elsewhere in the episode during a girls chat, the islanders admitted that none of them have had sex yet in the villa, but they confessed it has been difficult to hold back.

Broaching the topic, Jess asked the girls: 'How are you finding it?' as Nicole admitted it's 'hard', while Matilda jokes: 'Rock solid.'
Emma then agrees as she joked: 'In every sense of the word!' and Nicole adds: 'Every way possible hard!'
Getting candid about female sexual desire, Jess advised: 'It's all natural ladies, you wouldn't be human if you didn't feel these things'
While Matilda added: 'Women have got needs' and Jess continued: 'I just think, everyone is human and everyone has those needs'.
Agreeing Emma said: 'One million percent and it takes some real strong willpower to get to the point of this and not have done it, so well done.'
Jess then teased: 'Especially as everyone in here is so fit!'
LOVE ISLAND 2024: MEET THE CONTESTANTS
NAME: Mimii Ngulube
AGE: 24
FROM: Portsmouth
OCCUPATION: Mental Health Nurse
WHY LOVE ISLAND? The pool in Portsmouth is not giving. I've tried dating and speaking to people on social media and it just hasn't been successful. Applying was a spontaneous thing, I didn't expect to get here!
WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? My girls are my rocks and I'm theirs, so I'll be a good friend as well as going in there to find a man. I like dressing up, so I'll bring style, and I'd like to think I'm quite funny so I'll make people laugh. Bringing honesty as well - I'm good at picking up on people's personality traits and side-eyeing those who might be liars.
NAME: Sean Stone
AGE: 24
FROM: Hertford
OCCUPATION: Sweets Salesman
WHY LOVE ISLAND? I've always been one for relationships, and when you have found someone you want to be with it's the best feeling. Now is the perfect time, the one thing that is missing is my soulmate.
HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? Very loving, caring and thoughtful. I'm the kind of guy that, if you broke down on the motorway and needed your tyre changed, I'd be there at any time of night.
NAME: Ayo Odukoya
AGE: 25
FROM: Canning Town
OCCUPATION: Model
WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I think I'd bring excitement and joy. I think people would have someone to come to and talk to and feel comfortable being around or to have a laugh with. I think I'm somebody everyone would take to.
WHY SHOULD SOMEBODY DATE YOU? I feel like the way I carry myself is very respectful and I think people take to that and once you show who you are to somebody you get it back tenfold. The way I am gives off a good enough energy for people to feel comfortable around me.
NAME: Nicole Samuel
AGE: 24
FROM: Aberdare, Wales
OCCUPATION: Accounts Manager
WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I've been enjoying single life and the attention of different boys, it's fun.

All the girls are there texting in their room and I'm out till 4 in the morning living my best life.
WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? I became a world champion dancer in 2011, not many people know that. I was a professional street dancer.

WHAT'S YOUR TYPE ON PAPER? Obviously looks but humour is a big thing for me, I'm a bit of a wind up so I want a girl who can give it back. Loyalty is another one for me: I think that's the most important thing to look for in a relationship.
WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? When I was in Malia on a boys holiday I pretended to be Liam Reardon from series 7 to get into a club because they wouldn't let us in. It worked and we ended up getting a private booth and free drinks all night.
