Kem Cetinay has revealed he was ‘thrown off AP McCoy’s horse’ during filming for his new spin-off show with fellow Love Island star Chris Hughes.

Cetinay, who was catapulted to fame during the 2017 series of the ITV2 dating show, told press: “I got thrown off a horse.”

“[Chris] took me to one of the best horse riding places in the country. You know AP McCoy is like the most famous guy, he was there having coffee with us and he let me go on one of his horses and the horse threw me off,” he explained.

“It like flipped me off cause I didn’t sit on the right part of its body.”

Meanwhile Hughes explained that the animal in question took offence to Cetinay after he failed to sit on the saddle.

“There’s a massive saddle on the horse’s back but Kem sat on the horse’s a*** nearly. And then he got thrown off and he said ‘Well no one told me where to sit!’ and I said “This massive saddle is a giveaway isn’t it?’” he joked.

The pair is currently promoting new ITV2 spin-off show Straight Outta Love Island which sees them launch their rap careers.

Hughes also confessed that he wouldn’t rule out making an appearance on other reality shows, with BBC ballroom show Strictly Come Dancing his number one choice.

"Love Strictly. I've watched it every year for the last three years. I'd do Strictly." he stated.

Straight Outta Love Island starts on ITV2 on Sunday, October 1 at 9pm.
