Today we hear from this years 4th place couple Lucinda Stafford and Sean Stone read more on your Daily Sport as we feature each couple.
How do you feel to have reached the final?
Sean: “From the first couple of weeks I don’t think I saw that happening! From Villa USA happening things changed and it’s been tunnel vision from there and grateful for the support – mad really, doesn’t feel real. Over the moon and happy to have left with Lucinda.”
Lucinda: “I feel like I’ve had a huge rollercoaster in there, but you know what, I’m just happy that I met Sean and if I was in the final, or not in the final, none of that really matters to me. I am just happy I met Sean.”
What is it that you like about each other so much? What’s your favourite thing about each other?
Sean: “I would say we’re just so similar with our life on the outside, family, friends, our personalities, love Lucinda’s eyes and just how we can be ourselves around each other.”
Lucinda: “I love how Sean makes me laugh, he’s always got my back through thick and thin. I feel like he’s my best friend as well, which is nice.”
What’s the thing you’re most excited to do as a couple in the real world?
Sean: “Meeting each other’s families. We’ve spoken about it so much. Doing normal stuff, simple things in life, grabbing coffees, sunday roast, getting back into fitness…”
Lucinda: “The everyday things. Even just going to a coffee shop together.”
Sean: “And just laying in bed.”
Lucinda: “Going to the gym… lay off the night time toasties and get into our fitness era.”
You’re already talking about marriage – in a nutshell, describe the wedding plans…
Sean: “We’ve spoken about it low key…. But lightheartedly. I don’t know, beach wedding, sweets obviously. I think we’re 0 to 100 as you’ve probably seen, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s soon.”
Lucinda: “No pie at our wedding.”
Sean: “Just marriage and good vibes.”
Lucinda, have you always stood your ground/ stood on business?
Lucinda: “I haven’t always been like that. Over the past five years, since coming out of the first Love Island my skin has got thicker and thicker in the way I stand up for myself. I’m more sure of myself in a good way. When I was younger and probably in my first Love Island I wouldn’t stick up for myself at all. I do think I’ve grown up, it comes with age as well.”
