Love Island’s Andrew reveals what his secret surgery was ahead of going in the villa

LOVE Island singleton Andrew Le Page has revealed he went under the knife for a cosmetic procedure before entering the villa.
The 27-year-old real estate agent, who lives in Dubai, previously didn't say what the surgery was for, but has now told how he decided to have some glands on his chest removed.
Speaking to The Sun during a roundtable interview, he said: “It was surgery on my chest, it was a day procedure to take out glands that were in my chest.
"It was something that I had always wanted to do and I thought it was something I may as well do before I come on the show.
“It was a cosmetic procedure, it wasn’t something I needed to do, I just wanted to do it.”
Discussing how else he got body ready, Andrew continued: “When I had my surgery two months ago I couldn’t train for six weeks, so that was frustrating.

“Now I am training in the morning -a hit session and then in the evening I do a resistance, weights training.”
Andrew admitted he is a huge fan of the show and applied to be on it after his mates insisted he would be great for it.
His parents, however, didn’t really know what it was so he found himself explaining what it is like.

Asked how his mum felt, he said: “She is very happy for me, very proud of me but I don’t know if she knows what the show is actually about. She can’t wait to watch me every night."
But he’s not entirely sure how they would react to watching him have sex, explaining: “I think my parents know what I am like, they know if it happens, it happens, they will just have to get over it I guess.”
