What Happened To Purple Hair Girl On Love Island?

When Love Island released its latest promo for favorite islanders, many fans noticed the purple hair girl aka Leslie Golden was missing from the promo.

Some fans even took their curiosity to Twitter and asked why she was not shown in the promo. At first, it seemed a minor glitch that Leslie was cut off from the promo.

But, the devoted fans of the show went an extra mile to dig out the truth. When they tried to vote to save Leslie, they received a message saying she was ineligible for voting.

The fans were left shocked and curious at the latest development.

Their suspicions were confirmed when she did not appear on the girls’ lineup on the next episode.

One fan tweeted that Leslie must have left the show as she’s not on the voting list.

Another avid fan asked if anyone noticed Leslie was not in the girl’s lineup and if she left the show.

Why Did Leslie Golden Leave?

Following her sudden exit from Love Island, Leslie Golden finally opened up and shed some light on her unexpected departure from the show.

Leslie recently did a Q and A query on Instagram, where one fan asked her why she left the show.

Leslie responded with ‘personal reasons’ initially. However, another fan prodded if her exit was related to her drama with Shannon St Claire in episode 18.

Leslie quickly dismissed the theory and responded her exit was completely unrelated to the drama. She added that she did not have any beef with anyone in the show.

Moreover, Leslie’s vague answer about her departure is nothing new. Several other contestants who left the show prior to Leslie also refrained from divulging any details that led to their exit.

Confidentiality is probably a part of their contractual terms.

Previously, fellow contestants Slade Parker and Tony Caraballo also left the show in the middle.
