Before the villa, Mica revealed how she met Rihanna in Barbados because of her famous auntie.

Mica's aunt, Mia Mottley, is currently the Prime Minister for Barbados. Mia has held the position since 2018 and recently celebrated securing all 30 parliamentary seats for the third time.

Speaking about getting to meet Rihanna, Mica said: "She was staying two houses down from my grandparents and my aunt was taking me to see them. But then we turned up outside this house I didn’t recognise and Auntie Mia said, ‘Surprise, you’re meeting Rihanna!’"

Revealing what it was like to meet Rihanna, the Love Island star said: "She’s the loveliest person. She really is the people’s princess and it’s lovely when she comes to Barbados because she goes full Bajan."

We wonder if there are any Australian celebs she's met...
