Antigoni references her love life a lot in her music, including the single Red Flag.

She was previously in a nine-year relationship with her childhood sweetheart before they split up so she could focus on music.

She also dated former Love Islander Jack Fowler for a few months, but their romance eventually fizzled out. 

In 2022, the singer entered the famous Love Island villa as a bombshell, looking to have some fun under the Spanish sun.

"I really just want to say ‘yes’ to things. Why not? It’ll be fun.

"I’m a Cypriot girl and I love being in the sun. I’ve got nothing to lose!"
