EXCLUSIVE: After entering Love Island back in 2016, former contestant Rachel Fenton has continued to establish a successful career away from the spotlight as a nurse in Dubai
Besides giving singletons a once , in a lifetime chance to find love while soaking up the sun in Mallorca, Love Island is known for turning its contestants into instant celebrities.
Following an appearance on Love Island back in 2016, Rachel Fenton now works as a nurse in Dubai and is keen to encourage future generations into the healthcare field. Here, the 30 year old tells her story... Being in the public eye felt very overwhelming. It was so different to being a nurse, it was like being pulled from one end of the extreme to the other. I didn’t know much about the celebrity world, so going to red carpet events was very strange and I didn’t feel in control of anything.
I was balancing my work as a nurse with influencing for a good year after the show. There were so many times that I’d go into the toilet while on my lunch break and change into full glam with heels and a dress and have my colleague take photos of me. Then after work I’d rush home and do more.
