LOVE Island's Olivia Hawkins might have been expected to say she never wants to see Kai Fagan again.
The axed star has a difficult relationship with the lad ever since Casa Amor split them up.
At times she seemed fuming he'd recoupled - despite her doing exactly the same.
However, speaking for the first time after being kicked out of the Love Island villa, the 27-year-old insisted she wanted to be friends.
She insisted: "I hope we go back to being friends when we get out. I don’t want any animosity between us.
"I have a big heart and I just wish him all the best."

However, Olivia seems determined that any romance with them is dead - and wants to move on with Maxwell.
She said: "As soon as I had my first conversation with Maxwell, I knew there was something special.
"We have a lot in common and lots of the guys were saying things to me about Kai which made me doubt how genuine his feelings were towards me.
"I made my decision purely off the connection I had with Maxwell, I couldn’t ignore that and look where we are now."
