LOVE Island star Eva Zapico split up a happy couple when she entered the villa in 2020 – but has admitted that the ITV2 show has given her lasting love.
The 24-year-old took part in the first ever winter series of Love Island three years ago.
Love Island’s Eva has opened up about stealing Nas from Demi

Eva entered the villa as a Casa Amor bombshell alongside Jade Affleck, Jamie McCann, Molly Smith, Natalia Zoppa and Priscilla Anyabur.
She instantly clicked with Nas Majeed – however he was coupled up with Demi Jones who was over at the sister villa.
Nas decided to bring her back to the main villa, leaving Demi heartbroken.
Eva did feel guilty, but she is glad that Nas picked her all those years ago.
Speaking about the situation to New, Eva said: “Having watched the show for three weeks, Nas had always been in my top three and I knew that we’d get on.
“I was right and within 24 hours we were sharing a bed together.
“Entering the show during Casa Amor, I was aware that Nas was coupled up with Demi but I had to do what was best for me.
“In real-time terms, they’d only been together for a few days, so it didn’t feel like I was really breaking them up – I didn’t see it as a big deal.
“While I knew Nas liked me, I was never sure if he’d take the plunge and recouple. He’s a nice guy and I didn’t know if he’d be able to dump Demi because he was conscious of her feelings.
“When he said my name I realised that what we had was serious. I was shaking with fear when I walked into the main villa and I hoped Demi had recoupled too.
“Seeing her alone was devastating but thankfully she was understanding.”
The pair were dumped from the island on day 30.
Meanwhile Demi and Luke Mabbott placed third on the show, but split shortly after returning to the UK.
It took Eva and Nas a while to go official with their relationship.
The couple became boyfriend and girlfriend six months after appearing on the show.
They’re stronger than ever at the moment and recently enjoyed a holiday to Greece.
Back in February Nas paid tribute to his girl with a sweet post.
The caption said: “My Forever Valentine 
.”
