Love Island's Sherif Lanre has been kicked out of the villa after breaking show rules.

A spokesperson for the show confirmed that the 20-year-old chef and rugby player "mutually agreed" to leave the show after conversations with producers.

In a statement, Sherif said: "In a case of poor judgement, I broke the villa rules and as a result agreed with the producers that it was best for me to leave the villa."

He added: "I regret that I didn't conduct myself in the right way and, as a 20 year old guy, it's something I know I will take on board and learn from. I really enjoyed my time in the villa and look forward to catching up with everyone on the outside."

Sherif was in the villa for a total of nine days, during which time he struck up a romance with Anna, but it's not yet confirmed what rule Sherif broke.

But the point of his departure, Sherif had been getting close to pharmacist Anna, who he was in a couple with. His departure will no doubt come as a shock to his fellow Islanders, who he grew close with.

The 20-year-old is from London and a chef and semi-pro rugby player. He plays for South East London's Old Alleynian Rugby Club.

In interviews before going on the show, Sherif said he was "on a mission to make people laugh," saying in his ITV interview: "I'm upbeat and cheeky and outrageous with my own friends, so hopefully that continues in the villa."

Speaking about his dream potential partner, Sherif said: "She needs to be able to hold a conversation. I feel that I make people laugh so I want a girl that makes me laugh, even if that's just from being herself and not trying to be funny. A nice smile and nice teeth. And a nice bum! That's one of my criteria."
