Danica, 23, appeared to pretend she had died by sharing a black and white image of herself.She simply captioned the post: “Rest in peace x.”However, the prank didn’t go down well with fans who branded it ‘distasteful’ given Love Island stars have died tragically.
One follower said: “You can still delete this, babe.”A second wrote: “The caption is so distasteful! A lot of people got worried and triggered thinking something bad had happend, so the fact that Danica is staying quiet and liking people’s comments and not even having the decency to acknowledge peopes comments and explain is even worse.”“This is such an awful caption considering how many islanders have passed away,” said a third.
While a fourth furious follower said: “Danica it’s like we lost a baddie, bring ur old aesthetic back girl, this one ain’t it.”Mike Thalassitis and Sophie Gradon – who both appeared on Love Island – took their own lives following their appearances. Sophie was found by her boyfriend Aaron Armstrong, 25, who then took his own life 20 days later.
The Sun revealed last July that Danica is dating a single dad who starred in her recent music video.Love Island winners - where they are nowEVERY year Love Island opens its doors to more sexy Islanders who are hoping for a holiday romance that could turn into more.Here we take you through all of the Love Island winners so far and what their relationship statuses are now:2025 – The second series of All Stars saw Gabby Allen and Case O’Gorman scoop the crown.
