Antigoni also has a famous parent. Her mum, celebrity chef Tonia Buxton, regularly appears on the Channel 4 show, Sunday Brunch.
Prior to entering the Villa, Antigoni spent nine years with her childhood sweetheart, before splitting things off to focus on her career.
"I’ve only ever been in love once – I don’t think I’ve been in love since. I think I fall in lust and infatuation quickly," she said.

When will Casa Amor happen?
The Islanders are now two weeks in, but when will the ultimate test hit couples?
Casa Amor is usually introduced around half way through, so with this year’s series being around eight weeks long, we can expect Casa Amor to be hitting Islanders in two to three weeks.
Half the Islanders, most commonly the boys, are sent on a four day long getaway with brand new girls.
Sometimes, producers shake it up even more, and send the girls to Casa Amor instead.

So what’s the beef between Ekin-Su and Amber ?
She advised him to “go to the terrace” with Indiyah behind Amber’s back, but she had to quickly change the conversation as an unsuspecting Amber came over and joined them.
In last night’s show, Ekin-Su and Jay sat with Dami at one side of the villa, where she told Dami that he wasn’t interested in Amber.
Dami admitted he wasn’t sure about how he felt, and how at times he was more excited to speak to Indiyah, who is currently coupled up with Ikenna.
The trio didn’t know that at the other side of the villa, Indiyah was admitting to her own potential lack of connection with Ikenna, but it didn’t stop Ekin-Su encouraging Dami to take a leaf out of her book.
But Amber soon picked up on the weird mood, and kept asking what was going on.
As Dami gave her a reassuring cuddle, Ekin-Su said they were “cute” but Amber was still suspicious that something was afoot.
