The duo – who have been embroiled in separate love triangles with Tiffany Leighton and Jess White – came down to rock bottom on Friday after a public vote for their favorite couple.
Now Harriett, who was part of the original Love Island 2024 line-up, has opened up about her farewell – and admitted it was unexpected.
She said: “I didn’t think it was going to be us, I thought it was going to be Konnor Ewudzi and Grace Jackson because they are a friendly couple.
“But obviously Grace is one of my best friends in the Villa, she’s a big part of the Villa and her and Joey’s feelings, maybe the public have picked up on that?
“I feel like we’re in the same place as Uma and Wil, if not more because we’ve had more experiences together in the villa.”
Harriett had just rekindled her spark with semi-pro footballer Ronnie before she got the boot.
She admitted that she would see him again in the real world.
However, she hit out at the cheeky lad – laying the blame for his departure firmly at his door.
She added: “It’s hard because me and Ronnie were in such a good place last week.

“Maybe just the journey it took to get there.
“Obviously we had a date and got back together and stuff. But he got involved in all those triangles!”
She then said: “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and anyone would be a fool to turn it down.
“Whether I went now or in the final, I’ve had an amazing experience and I’ve done things I wouldn’t necessarily have done, so I’d definitely tell anyone to go.”

HARD TIMES
Harrietta’s ouster follows a difficult period for the star.
She burst into tears after being savagely punched by Ciaran during the Never Had I Ever game, which saw the Welshman branded “evil” by fans.
Others suggested that Harriett was “faking” her tears.
Viewers also thought they had guessed the real reason why she reunited with Ronnie earlier in the week.
