The 22-year-old television personality - who appeared on the ITV2 dating show last year - has revealed that everyone has full access to a psychologist during and after the show to get any "emotional support" that they may need.

Speaking on The Independent's Millennial Love podcast, she said: "She's always on call once you're there. They give you a lot of emotional support in that sense. [However], you're not going to call some random stranger three, four weeks after the show's finished."

Meanwhile, Montana previously weighed in on this year's contestants, dubbing Megan Barton Hanson as "snaky".

Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz, she said: "Everyone's kind of jumping on this whole Megan situation - well she's been a bit snaky and to be honest I would've consulted Laura first. I think that would have probably been a better approach just because with everyone's emotions being really heightened, like Laura will now feel extra emotional. In the real world, she maybe wouldn't have felt like that but because of the kind of closed environment that you're in, she will now feel quite upset about it. She won't know who to trust. It will just cause a bit of drama - I think that's unnecessary."

Montana bedded fellow contestant Alex Beattie on the show last year and admits she regrets having sex on television.

She said: "In hindsight, having sex on TV wasn't the best idea. My advice to the new hopefuls is not to do it. If I could have done it differently, I wouldn't have had sex. But, other than that, I really enjoyed the experience. I just wish I'd made a better decision in that area."
