Love Island star Jessie’s mum gushes about Will in the run up to the final

Jessie Wynter’s mum Alice has sang Will Young’s praises in the lead up to the Love Island final.

Alice gushed that Will was ‘wonderful’ and that her daughter was being her full authentic self.

Jessie has had a rollercoaster ride in the villa, with some of her fellow Islanders questioning her motives in the villa.

The Aussie beauty found herself facing the wrath of the islanders who started labelling her as ‘fake’.

But in quotes obtained by MailOnline, Jessie’s mum Alice insisted: ‘That’s definitely my little Jessie on the TV. Jessie doesn’t know how to be anyone else but herself. I really love it when her inner Aussie shines through. 

Big fan: Alice gushed that Will was ‘wonderful’ and that her daughter was being her full authentic self

Speaking about Will, she added: ‘We all think he’s wonderful and couldn’t be happier that him and Jessie have found each other. 

‘I am very touched by his gentle caring side and love the fact that he has a wicked sense of humour and isn’t scared to have a laugh at himself.’

Jessie has said on the show several times, that she plans on moving from Australia to the UK and her mum has thrown her fulls support behind her.

Alice said: ‘We are all very supportive of whatever makes Jessie happiest. Jessie was in the UK last year and loved it. 

‘She’s never shy to jump on a plane so I’m sure we’d be seeing each other regularly no matter the distance. Technology nowadays also makes it super easy to stay connected.’

Will has spoken at length about his farm back home, and Alice said Jessie will be right at home there.

She explained: ‘Jessie often talks about living in the country and has always been proud of her rural upbringing. 

‘She’s never been afraid of hard work or getting her hands dirty. Jessie is good with animals, she’s grown up with plenty around her.’

Meanwhile, she added that Will would do well in Australia too, saying: ‘I think Will would really enjoy Australia and the Australian lifestyle. 

‘He seems to be a real outdoorsy type and there are plenty of outside activities to keep him busy. Australians love a larrikin and a farmer, he’d fit right in!

‘I don’t see Will having too many issues with the wildlife so long as Jessie is around to rescue him from the insects.’

Speaking on what she would say given the chance to talk to Jessie in the villa ,Alice said: ‘I would tell Jessie how much we love her, we are proud of her, that she is a force of nature and has carried herself well.’

Praise: Meanwhile Kai’s mum Jill sang Sanam’s praises, saying: ‘We think Sanam is a lovely girl and very well suited to Kai’

Meanwhile Kai’s mum Jill sang Sanam’s praises, saying: ‘We think Sanam is a lovely girl and very well suited to Kai. 

‘The whole family really love Sanam. You can see Kai and Sanam having a fantastic future together. I’d love to ask Sanam what first attracted her to Kai.’

Discussing her favourite moment on the show so far, she said: ‘We loved the Casa episode and were so pleased when Kai chose to bring Sanam back. And Kai’s outfit when he went to The Hideaway Retreat. We all thought that that was hilarious.’

Jill added: ‘If I could speak to Kai I would tell him to carry on being himself. I’d tell him that I love him and can’t wait to give him a huge hug and tell him I’m so proud of him.’
