Love Island’s Samantha shows off new tattoo after hitting back at Joey Essex

SAMANTHA Kenny has shown off a new tattoo after getting her revenge on Joey Essex.

The 27-year-old became one of the most talked about Islanders during the recent series of Love Island despite being dumped early.

Samantha was axed after being coupled up with Joey, 34, for two weeks.

When his ex Grace Jackson arrived as a bombshell Joey's head turned - meaning bad news for Samantha.

And, after telling the former Towie star exactly how she feels, she's revealed a brand new tattoo.

Samantha has had 'love always' inked onto her arm.

Joey and Jessy Potts just missed out on the final last month after dumped Islanders - including Samantha - returned to vote them off.

While Joey insisted he'd never led Samantha on, she hit back: "You were saying to me 'we're one of the strongest couples in here' and 'I like you as much as you like me'.

"But you were saying to Grace we were a friendship couple."

Joey also claimed he'd been honest about there being "no spark" between him and Samantha.

But she said: "No you weren't! Why are you bare faced lying? You never said to me that there wasn't a spark."

The Sun recently revealed Samantha is now in talks to sign up for the upcoming All Stars series.

A source said: “Samantha is definitely one of this year’s most memorable Islanders despite only being in the villa for two weeks.

“Fans loved her and she’s proven she’s not afraid to speak her mind.

“She shows real All Stars potential and bosses are keen to get her booked for the 2025 series."
