Megan Barton Hanson has revealed she felt she was painted as 'the villain' when she was on Love Island, after her fiery romance with Wes Nelson. The reality star, 30, appeared on the ITV2 show back in 2018, and in a new interview admitted that early on she was 'pigeonholed as a maneater' and it's because of this that she has never watched her series back.

Speaking on the newest episode of OnlyFans' OFTV docuseries In Real Life, Megan said: 'I was definitely pigeonholed into being the maneater, the ex-stripper, the crazy one… but that's absolutely not me!'. Megan added that she has 'never watched [her time on the show] back fully, purely because I know I was the villain.'.

While Megan says she 'had an amazing summer' on the show, she didn't want to look back and see how she was made to fit a certain mould. She added: 'I feel like I was definitely pigeonholed into being the maneater, the ex-stripper, the crazy one… But that's absolutely not me! I like to get what I want, but I can equally be a girl's girl.'.
