Marcel Somerville reveals cheating wife’s horrified reaction to Love Island All Stars

-

Marcel Somervile has opened up about the moment he told his wife Rebecca Viera that he was appearing on Love Island All Stars.

The pair are still married and still finalising their divorce after splitting last year. In March, Marcel discovered wife of two years had been sending racy messages to rapper Slim Jxmmi. T he Mirror revealed how an ‘utterly broken’ Marcel had moved out of the family home he shared with their two kids, after the mother of Slim’s child accused Rebecca of sending ‘intimate’ messages to her partner. She leaked the messages online and even tagged Rebecca and Marcel in the posts for them to see.

Marcel has revealed he struggled to move on after the shock, and his return to Love Island is his first dip into the dating pool since the grim discovery. Speaking to the Mirror, Marcel revealed that estranged wife Rebecca was horrified when he shared his plan.

“I had to tell Rebecca that I wasn’t going to be around for a few weeks,” he reveals. “She said: ‘I can’t believe this. I can’t believe this is happening’” says Marcel.

“But she’s got to a point of understanding that our relationship has broken down. We’re going through a divorce. It’s got to get to a point where we have to start moving forward and living our lives separately.

“For Rebecca Love Island was a shock. She was she wasn’t expecting it to happen, but she’s become accepting of the situation because she made a mistake. I can’t put my life on hold when opportunities like this come up.”

Marcel says he’s had no romantic relations since discovering Rebecca’s infidelity – meaning his first kiss after his marriage broke down could happen during one of Love Island’s infamous challenges.

“I never thought of that,” he says. “It actually might make it easier. If your first kiss is something passionate and you’ve met someone and you’re trying to make a thing with them there’s more pressure. Kissing in a game it will just be like ‘Well that’s done! I don’t have to think about that now!’”

One fellow singleton who Marcel will meet in the villa is his ex Gabby, who he hasn’t spoken to in six years.

“We saw each other after the drama ensued and we had a heart to heart conversation and hugged at the end of it. I haven’t seen her since,” he reveals. “So obviously if she was to go back in there, I don’t think it would be awkward or anything between us. Gabby is a lovely person. We could be friends and I might even end up her wingman in there.”

But Marcel says he’s not entirely ‘friend zoning’ Gabby for now: “Never say never. I did something to hurt her. Sometimes when someone hurts you there’s no going back. You don’t want to go back on the ex-bus. If she was in there if there were opportunities that she wanted to like follow… I’d say do your thing and let me help you if I can.

“But I mean like if she did want to rekindle with me then who knows what could happen?”

Love Island All Stars starts Monday, 13th January at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX
