Love Island's Lola Deal has opened up about her future plans with Seán Fitzgerald, including a move to Dublin, after the couple volunteered to leave the villa in a dramatic turn of events.
Couple Volunteers to Leave
In the episode aired on July 12, Lorenzo Alessi and Julia Mayska were crowned the public's favorite couple. However, they were then tasked with dumping one of the couples with the fewest votes. To spare Lorenzo from another difficult decision—having previously sent Tommy Murphy home—Lola and Seán volunteered to leave.
Plans for Dublin and Travel
In her exit interview, Lola shared their next steps: "All we did in there was talk about the future and now we actually get to start that next chapter. We've got loads of plans. I've said I'll move to Dublin, which I'm so excited about." She added that they also hope to travel: "We've talked about travelling together and just enjoying normal life."
Seán echoed her sentiments: "We talk about the future all the time. She has dates planned for me over in Kent and London, then I have dates planned in Dublin and Galway. I think the plan is that we want to do a bit of travelling first. We want to go to a few different places, maybe Thailand, Australia and around there. Then obviously she said she wants to move to Dublin. We're going to get a little apartment and start life together."
Lola Reflects on Julia Drama
Lola also addressed her strained relationship with Julia, following several heated exchanges in the villa. She said: "With Julia I'd said my bit from the start and I didn't really need to discuss it again. My disappointment was that she didn't really appreciate the fact she was trying to crack on with the one boy who was exclusive and I'd told her that. After that first conversation I just thought we're going to have to agree to disagree. You do you and I'll do me. The difficult part was that every time things had settled, she'd bring it back up again. For me, it felt like forced drama. I kept saying to people, 'I don't want to speak about it.'"
