LOVE Island star Toni Laites's mum has spoken out about Harrison's hasty exit from the villa.
The 22-year-old footballer abruptly and emotionally quit the show this week, after days of flip-flopping between Toni and Lauren Wood, seemingly stringing them both along.
In one scene, he controversially made a plea to Toni ahead of the latest recoupling to pick him, despite having had sex with Lauren the night before.
Aware of the heartache he was causing them both, Harrison made the decision to remove himself completely.
It's a decision that has been welcomed by Toni's mum, who has been keeping a keen eye on what's been going on from their home back in the US.
Taking to TikTok, Leslie said: "Obviously I'm really thrilled that he is out of sight, out of mind, and I think that it will speed up the healing process for both Toni and Lauren, to be quite honest."
"However, sort of like public service announcement, part of it, for me, is that I have some empathy for him as well," she added.
"He is a 22 year old young man who I don't think had any idea of the implications that of his actions, I don't agree with just about anything he did in there, but I don't think he saw the bigger picture, and I'm sure stepping out of this bubble now is going to be quite traumatic for him, and I would offer him grace."
Adding she hoped his time in the villa would prove a "wake-up call of how he should treat people" she continued: "Hopefully he gets the help that he needs to deal with this aftermath, because I don't wish him harm. I wish him also healing and learning from his mistakes.
"So yes, I am happy he is away from the villa, and again, wishing him health and good luck.
"I have a feeling he's in for a very rude awakening, and I feel for his family as well, because nobody wants to see one of your loved ones go through this."
Her empathetic message came before she found out that Lauren was dumped from the villa as well following the introduction of a new bombshell in yet another twist.
Leslie had previously been critical of Toni and Harrison's relationship, especially after the pair reunited after movie night last week, and a clip shown to the villa proved Toni still had feelings for Harrison.
She said: “My initial reaction to the first look is no.
“No, no, no, no, no. If I had my way, I would hire one of those little planes that has the banner at the back and have it fly over the villa and that banner would say ‘leave Harrison alone. Harrison leave Toni alone.’”
She continued: “I’m not happy about it at all. I’ll just keep praying that she can straighten her crown up and realise how much better she deserves.
“I’m with all of you out there saying ‘no Toni, no, don’t do it.’”
With Toni now the only part of the love triangle still in the villa, will she be able to find a stronger match as the finale draws closer?
Love Island continues 9pm on ITV2.
