Ahead of going into the villa, Carrington praised his fellow American Toni Laites on her win in the summer series. He said: "I think Toni set a great example and she’s amazing, so I feel as if I need to try and back her up and set the tone."
Ready to take on the villa again, he said: "The first time I did Love Island USA it was a life-changing experience. I went into it with the hope of meeting someone. You do get close to people so quickly, it’s amazing. I was an OG and I was nervous as hell. I had a really good time. I was coupled up with a few different girls.
"The audience voted one girl off and it broke my heart! Then I met another girl, but they her and I were voted out very close to the end."
