According to Liv, while sparks flew inside theLove Islandbubble, reality hit differently on the outside.
Yeah, we spent the day together the other day, she shared.
Weve just kind of decided that were mutually probably gonna stay friends.

Its so different when you get out and just finding time to see each other.
But we get on so well.
Were still speaking all the time, so itd be a shame to lose that.

So, is there still hope?
I think for now, were definitely more friendship, she admitted.
I am in love with South Africa, she gushed.

Last time, it was the back end of COVID, so I was locked away.
We were only allowed out for an hour walk every day.
So this time, I was adamantI wanted to go to all of the main spots.

Liv made the most of it.
And in classicLove Islandfashion, she even had a secret villa code name.
Everyone gets given code names, and everyone was like, Who was Cartier?
Because they couldnt go out, she laughed.
Their pre-existing friendship outside of the villa, paired with public expectations, made things complicated from the jump.
We live so close to each other.
Grace denied ever saying such a thing and was consoled by Luca, who promised he believed her.
In a recent episode of theSpillWithWillpodcast Olivia defended herself after receiving tons of hate from fans online.
Just a little bit..
I never wanted Grace to get any hate, she added.
That wasnt my intention.
It was a show.
Jama concluded the exchange saying, Guessyoull have to sort it out online.
Nearly three weeks later and it seems things are far from sorted.
DefinitelyCatherine, Liv said when asked which of the ladies she got closest to.
Im obsessed with her,Ekin-Su, andElma.
Elma is one of the funniest people Ive ever met, Liv gushed.
The things she comes out with, her one-liners are just impeccable.
But yeah, her journeys definitely been rocky.
This Season Was Another Shot
Returning forAll-Starsmeant stepping back into the game with more experience and wisdom.
For Liv, it was a chance to approach romance differently.
The first time around,I was very picky.
I didnt give things a go, even if I wasnt feeling it at the start.
Whereas this time, I really gave my all.
I wouldnt say any of the cast this time round were necessarily shady, she revealed.
But when it came to shocking villa moments, one event stood out.
That public attention, however, comes with pressure.
But Livs got thick skin.
Ive always been a very strong-minded person, she said.
Ive grown up doing musical theatre, so Im very used to nos and having thick skin.
That doesnt necessarily mean thats who I am.
And this time around?
The reception has been much warmer at least before dropping that Grace bomb.
Coming out to a very different response was honestly so heartwarming.
I actually havent, she admitted.
For now, it seems Liv is focused on enjoying life post-All-Starsand taking things as they come.
Love Islanddefinitely gives you more opportunities than you would have previously, she acknowledged.
Its not until you come out that you might really have that conversation.
And with a fanbase still rooting for her, she just might find that fairytale ending after all.
