Speaking on Instagram last night, Antigoni's mum - who will be familiar to Sunday Brunch viewers - revealed her daughter's post villa plans.
Tonia, a chef, said: "She's coming to Pride tomorrow!"
She added: "My girl is out, she’s out of Love Island and I couldn’t be happier and I can’t wait to see her.
"I’m going to pick her up today, she’s so proud, she’s been wonderful.

"I know she would have liked to be there longer, but it doesn’t matter, she had a good time when she was there. And it’s all about her music, people, click on her !"
Antigoni had her eye on Davide and Jay, but Davide was swiped by former flame Ekin-Su in a savage recoupling on Thursday night.
She was then sent home in a double dumping when the boys decided bombshell Danica Taylor, who had arrived a week earlier, should be allowed a second chance to find love.
Charlie Radnedge was also sent home after failing to hit it off with any of the girls.

Speaking ahead of her arrival on Love Island, Antigoni revealed why she wanted to do the show.
She explained: "I’ve been single for almost a year and a half and for the whole of the last year my goal has been to have as many different experiences as possible.
"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!"
She kept her Love Island signing a secret from her mum, who expressed her shock on Instagram.
After the news broke, Tonia, 54, shared a series of snaps and told her 35k followers: “I can not believe that my @antigoni is in the Love Island Villa, she mentioned she would be sunbathing this week I didn’t think she meant in Mallorca! 😆.”
