The former air hostess told this publication: "I feel a million times better now I’ve left, but I defy anyone not to fall apart and be completely heartbroken. I was very confused. I couldn’t eat, I lost six pounds."
"I felt so numb. I didn’t feel hungry...When I wouldn’t eat, they would stand over me and make me eat a bowl of food or I couldn’t do the challenges."
Amy made the decision to leave the show after being dumped by her 'half' boyfriend, Curtis Pritchard, who almost re-coupled during the Casa Amor segment of the show, which sent Amy into an emotional spiral that worried producers and saw her sent for psychological help.
The 26-year-old was had an emotional reunion with her Mum after flying back to the UK and doesn't regret her decision to leave the show at all, saying: "I’ve given up a place that 130,000 people applied for but I had to leave as I wasn’t myself any more. I was in absolute despair."
“I was grieving the loss of my first love, living in a house with him and watching one of my alleged friends get with him."
She has since tweeted a message thanking fans for their support and saying she's happy to be home, writing: "Thank you for all the support. It means so much. Home, happy, looking forward to what’s next! Amz xx."
