Love Island’s Anna Vakili has revealed how she’s made so much money since the ITV show that her mother has quit her job.
The stunning star, who recently launched a shoe collection alongside sister Mandi, has clearly taken full advantage of her fame since the show, with the benefits now paying off.
Anna, 29, is now supporting her mum after a number of lucrative deals since the programme.
Speaking to new! magazine, the reality star discussed how her life has changed since appearing in the villa this summer, saying: “It's changed for the better.
“I'm very grateful for all of the things that have come my way, but the best thing about it is my mum doesn't have to work anymore. There have definitely been more ups than downs."
It comes after Anna clarified recent remarks she had made about her Love Island co-stars, after previously hinting that they no longer talk.
Speaking about negativity she's faced since leaving the Love Island villa, Anna exclusively told OK! online: "We all get it. Sometimes I'll message Amy [Hart] and Amy will send me a message saying 'ignore it'. We all support each other when it comes to things like that."
Clarifying her comments about how the cast aren't close in the outside world, she continued: "Everyone's so busy at the moment with their work, a lot of people live all over England so it's really hard to stay in contact.
"It's nothing personal. Some people don't get on from inside the villa, which if you watched the show then you know that some people don't get on, and that's just continued since they've got out."
One person in particular that Anna has been supporting is series winner Amber Gill, who her and Mandi rallied around following her split from Greg O'Shea. Discussing the Geordie beauty during our exclusive chat, Anna said: "She's good. I think she's concentrating on her work right now and her Miss Pap launch. She's okay."
Anna recently revealed that cruel trolls had shockingly branded her a "terrorist" over her Iranian background. Speaking about how she deals with internet bullies, Anna continued to tell us: "I've got a good support system around me so I just ignore it, my sister especially brings me up every time that I'm down.
"Everything these trolls write is shocking really, they'll just write anything. They're trolls for a reason.
"I'm getting much better [at ignoring them] now, when I first came out it was hard, but I'm much stronger now."
The Sun previously quoted Anna as saying of her former co-stars: "Let me tell you that WhatsApp group is not active at all because there are loads of people in there who don't like each other.
"I can't say, I think it's obvious from watching Love Island who doesn't like each other."
