00:00 - Hi! - Hi!
00:02 - You look gorgeous! - Apparently that is my colour.
00:07 - That's your colour. That's the first ever NDAs. It's madness. How are you feeling?
00:11 - It is madness! It's crazy. You're like walking down the path and you don't know what's at the end.
00:14 You're like, "Oh my gosh!" You know? But no, I'm happy to be here. It's amazing.
00:19 Just the people, the atmosphere. I love it. It's really amazing.
00:24 - And I know it's important we're asking you for pictures. You were shocked.
00:26 Are you still getting used to it? - Yeah! I'm still getting used to it.
00:28 I'm like, "Oh, me? Me? You're calling me?"
00:31 - Aw, no, we love you!
00:33 And listen, there's very exciting announcements in Love Island today.
00:36 Love Island All Stars is just announced. - Yeah, I know! All Stars!
00:40 - I feel like we need a second run. - You tell them that!
00:44 - Listen, would you... I know it's only just been announced, but would you do it if you got the chance?
00:49 What do you think about it? - I always say, you know me, my slogans never say never.
00:52 So, you know what? I wouldn't mind. I never say no at all, you know?
00:57 - And Love Island Games, that's even more exciting because it's in Fiji!
01:00 - And I feel it's going to be very competitive, so I can't wait to see that side because everyone's like,
01:05 "Is it focused on love? Is it focused on games? It's going to be so interesting!"
01:08 - But for Love Island Games, Love Island All Stars, on the record, IDD are watching out.
01:13 Katherine, will you do it? Yes or no? - Yes!
01:16 - Yes! We love it!
01:18 Now, listen, I was shocked, shooker, when we saw Spock running Love Island USA.
01:24 I think that's the first time that's ever been done. - Yeah.
01:26 - Did you know about it? Was it a shock to you as well?
01:29 - Before, obviously, you guys knew, I knew, but I did know later on.
01:33 So, it kind of slipped out. - That's it!
01:37 Was it just casual, like, "Oh, by the way, I'm going to Fiji"?
01:40 - It was, "Oh, have a flight to..." Yeah, it was very casual. Yeah, it was very casual.
01:45 But you know what? I'm happy for him. You know, you gotta do what you gotta do.
01:49 I wish him the best. I literally wish him the best.
01:51 - If you were given that opportunity to go there, would you have taken it as well?
01:55 - Yeah, you know, like, "Oh, he's come out the villa. You know, we haven't spoken."
02:00 And when you come out, it's so intense as well.
02:02 Like, you don't know what's there, you don't know what's around.
02:05 And I'm like, "Yeah."
02:06 - A free holiday in Fiji, who is going to turn that down?
02:09 - Fiji's amazing. - Exactly!
02:12 And I know it's really annoying, because it's all I want to ask you.
02:15 I know you keep saying you're friends, you're friends, but the fans are on me.
02:18 They're in my throat, Catherine.
02:20 They want to know, is there any hope for you in Scotland? Is it just friendship?
02:24 - There's no questions being answered with Scott, okay?
02:28 - I feel like-- - I gotta keep wondering.
02:31 - Yeah, I feel like there's still a big misunderstanding between you two.
02:35 - What? - A big misunderstanding between you two.
02:37 I feel like it was miscommunication.
02:39 - I feel like there's a lot of stuff happening that we don't realise, you know?
02:43 And, you know, again, the same way we left, it's the same way we continued, you know?
02:47 So, it's good. We're all good friends.
02:50 - We're definitely still friends. - Yeah, of course.
02:52 And we're still friends. We talk often, you know.
02:55 - It ends until you're in the same room and they're in the chemistry.
02:58 You know we see it.
03:01 - I know you're a shipper. - I know you're a shipper.
03:04 - I've been out here. I've been out here.
03:06 - Listen, what would you say to the fans? Because your fans love you.
03:09 What would you say to the fans that have supported you?
03:11 - I love them. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you guys.
03:14 I really love them. If I see them, I just want to give them all big hugs.
03:18 They're literally amazing people and I want them to know that as well.
03:22 You know, I'm me but you're you. I never change.
