Love Island star Amber Gill has revealed the biggest celebrity who has tried to send her a direct message on Instagram.

The 24-year-old, from Newcastle, was chatting to last year’s Love Island runner up Chloe Burrows for a video on her YouTube channel, in a game of “say it or shot it”.

The Geordie reality star revealed that 21 Savage is the most famous person to have ever been in her inbox, with Chloe excitedly saying: “No way. Tell me more”.

Amber replied: "It was just the ring emoji and one of those bomb photos when it comes up and goes, but it was him, 21 Savage.”

The Love Island winner added that she never replied to the American rapper.

“That’s really cool, I don’t really get people. Jedward, Gemma Collins I’ve had. No one like 21 Savage,” Chloe said.

Another question during the game was “who’s the rudest celebrity she has ever encountered was”.

Amber went on to talk about Celebrity Big Brother legend Nicola McLean saying “I havent met them” but then went on to explain.

She said: "I left Winter Wonderland and after taking millions of photos, I had to start saying no to people because I wanted to go on rides.

“And she put on a story about us saying ‘she acted like Kim Kardashian’ because one of her nieces or cousins or something was there.”

Also in the video they shared who their least favourite 2022 islanders are (both agreeing on Dami and Luca), the reasons they decided to do Love Island, and who the most problematic islanders from their seasons were.

After winning the show, her and Greg only lasted a few weeks on the outside.

In January 2020, she met Rory Colhoun whilst in Thailand.

However, she dumped Rory after finding out he had spent time in prison following an incident in 2015 in which he beat up two doormen in Leeds, leaving one with brain damage.

Earlier this year, there were rumours that Amber got back with her criminal ex-boyfriend Rory after the pair took a trip to Dubai.

Since this, during this year’s Casa Amor antics, she tweeted: “Watching men makes me feel ill. I couldn’t put myself through it again.”

This triggered an already ongoing speculation that the reality star may be gay or bisexual.
