However she chose to partner with Brett, a 27-year-old PhD student and model from Derbyshire, after the pair went on a date during Wednesday’s programme.
Following the recoupling, Priya said: “It’s bittersweet, because Matt is such a good guy.
“I have so many positive things to say about him and I think that’s why I’m so upset.
“I hope I haven’t made a mistake.”
Matthew, who is from Ballynoe near Downpatrick is the co-founder of marketing firm MCN.
Speaking in the Beach Hut, Priya also described newcomer Brett, who arrived in the villa on Wednesday, as “fit”.
“He’s so good looking and he’s a health student!
“He’s a studier, nearly got a PhD – Dr Brett! I was drooling.”
Wednesday’s episode ended by teasing an upcoming clip of Liberty Poole expressing doubts about her relationship with Jake Cornish.
Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
