Megan Barton Hanson admits she was painted as 'the villain' on Love Island due to her fiery romance with Wes Nelson - after revealing the reason she refused to return for All Stars


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'.

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!' 'Women are always portrayed as a mum, or a girlfriend, or a wife and I think it's about time that women start putting themselves first - saying that this is me, this is what I want in a partner, and unless you're bringing something to the table, move on!' Confiding in her decision to come out as bisexual, Megan shares that she initially wanted to 'keep that close to my chest before I [came] off Love Island - but then after I thought, people will judge me anyway - to hell with it!'
