Love Island is officially over, but that hasn't stopped us from being obsessed with the show - especially after Iain Stirling teased that the Winter version starts sooner than we think.

So when Closer Online caught up with one of the only couples that are still together - Danny Williams and Jourdan Riane - they were asked them about their Love Island secrets and one of them in particular was pretty surprising.

They confessed that producers call them to the Beach Hut by talking over speakers that are placed all around the villa.

Surprisingly our favourite ever Love Island contestant Ovie wasn't scouted or approached - he applied himself.He said on This Morning: "I went in because of my big brother, funnily enough. "Because I'm always sort of travelling and stuff because of basketball, I'm only ever really around in the summer times. I came back and Love Island always seems to be the big deal and he was like, 'Man, you'd be great on that show if you went on there' and I didn't think anything of it. "I ended up applying when I had some downtime and yeah, now I'm sort of here."

Danny said: 'There's a tannoy. There's speakers everywhere and production will speak over the tannoy.'

The model turned reality star went on to explain the main reason they're called to the Beach Hut: 'Normally after there's been a bit of drama that person will go straight to the Beach Hut so they can catch their live reaction.

'Or at the end of the night you will go to the Beach Hut and do a little review of your day and speak about the events of the day.'

The reality stars also spoke about what they get up to on their Love Island phones inside the villa and honestly, it doesn't sound like a lot.

'The only thing on our phones is the gallery and a camera to take pictures with and you can message each other within the villa.

'But everything you message - production can see anyway,' Jourdan said.

Danny went on to say: 'They can even see whilst you're typing. You can't send secret messages or anything. They can see everything, there's eyes everywhere.'

Jourdan added: 'Every other setting on the phone is completely locked.'
