Love Island 2023 's Haris Namani said he was "devastated" to leave the villa, as he spoke on spin-off series Aftersun on Sunday night.
In his first TV interview since being dumped from the villa last week, Haris spoke to host Maya Jama about his partnership with Olivia Hawkins.
In a clip with fellow eliminated Islander Anna-May Robey, immediately after his exit, he confessed he missed Olivia.
As he spoke to Maya on Aftersun, he revealed he didn't actually realise that Olivia was having secret chats with Tom Clare but knew he was in the picture.
Sharing all on his time in the villa, Haris confessed he was "devastated" to be out but said "what will be will be".
He said he had the best experience of his life, despite leaving so early on in the series.
Haris said he and Olivia were in "a good place" before he got dumped from the villa, while he knew there was something going on with Tom.
He said: "Tom was always in the picture but I always backed myself, because I had Tanyel on my side. She was the girl who told me quite a lot of things."
Haris said he didnt think Tom and Olivia were that close, as he offered her more affection than Tom did.
He also said that if he had been in a little bit longer they could have worked, while suggesting their age gap was an issue for them.
Haris and Anna-May also ruled out any romance, after being paired up together on the first day.
It comes after Haris broke his silence over a shocking viral video involving himself and another man.
A video emerged appearing to show the ITV star in an ugly street brawl, which showed him seemingly punch the unnamed man as they faced off in the street.
While ITV did not comment on the video, Haris himself did so in his exit interview with the show.
Speaking about the video in an exit interview shared with press, Haris said: "I’m devastated that this video has been seen, it’s not a reflection of my character.
"I’m not someone that goes looking for fights and I didn’t want to be in that situation. This was a heat of the moment thing.
"The video doesn’t show everything that happened. Afterwards we met up and we cleared the air; we’ve shaken hands and we get along now. It’s not something that would happen again."
Love Island airs every night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
