How did Love Island's Megan get the scar on her head?

The energy broker said: "I love to lie on a night out. People believe anything. I cracked my head open falling down some stairs, so I've got a bit of a Harry Potter scar.

"I tell boys I went swimming with sharks."

Megan, who has initially coupled up with Tommy Bradley, has admitted she loves to joke and banter and it seems to work when she's on the dating scene.

The 24 year old from Ireland said: "I don't have any one liners but I kind of take the mick out of people and have playful banter, it seems to work."
