LOVE Island star Jordan says he regrets being influenced by Islanders to pick Ellie over Tanyel.

Ellie Spence and Jordan Odofin were told to pack their bags after producers served up a shock twist last week.

And appearing on Aftersun to discuss his decision, Jordan told Maya Jama: “I think it might have been wrong timing and wrong advice,” when speaking about picking Ellie over Tanyel.

Jordan, who admits he has his eye on Tanyel, continued to tell host Maya Jama: “In hindsight, I don’t want to use the word influence, but the people I spoke to are the people I confide in.

“In the villa you guys don’t see everything but I feel like those people I was speaking to, I spoke to them a lot, about a lot of things. What I was going through and things in life.
