In an exclusive interview, Amber explains: “I was so flattered when Boux Avenue asked me to model some pieces from their latest collection. I was already a fan of the brand and really love their lingerie sets so of course I jumped at the chance to work with them!” 

II hope that my campaign encourages women to be body confident. I’m proud of my body and am not afraid to show it off so I hope that I inspire others to embrace their bodies and love themselves. You need to love yourself before anyone else loves you – so own it!” 

“My go-to lingerie is definitely a bodysuit in a bold colour as they are really flattering and comfortable to wear. They are also a really on trend. My favourite body from the collection is the black Sorcha as it’s really sexy but glamorous at the same time. I also really like the triangle bras as I generally opt for something that is unpadded.”

Amber says: “I am definitely secure about my body, you have to be to go on a programme like Love Island when you are in your swimwear all the time. 

“I get the odd negative comment on social media, but I just try not to let it get to me. I am proud of my body and who I am, you’re only young once and I want to make the most of it!

“A nice lingerie set just makes you feel great and like you can achieve anything.”

When it comes to discussing the opposite sex, Amber reveals: “My type on paper is definitely a guy that is funny – that’s really important, they need to have a good personality. I like a guy that’s ambitious, smells nice and treats their family well! Family is really important to me and I always think that the way a guy treats his mum says a lot about how they will treat you in the long run. I also like a guy that is taller than me."

She says of her Love Island partner Kem Cetinay: "He is 5' 7" - so there you go for all of the UK. He's not 5' 10 like he claims.

“Kem is really supportive of my campaign with Boux Avenue, he loved the photo’s! He is a really proud boyfriend bless him.”

“We are spending as much time together as possible since leaving the villa but it’s not easy as we are both so busy and a lot of his time is taken up with personal appearances and filming. However, we are spending a lot of time at his home in Essex which is so lovely as I get on so well with his mum, she really looks after me which is lovely as I’m so far away from my mum when I’m down south.

“We are making an effort to go on dates and spend quality time together when we can, Kem is very generous and likes to treat me which is so sweet.”

“My favourite pieces from the shoot would be the bodies and the triangle bras, I prefer lingerie that isn’t too padded and is pretty and feminine. The Cilla body is also really nice as I love the purple colour. I was also given a gorgeous black silky robe at the shoot with lovely lace on the sleeves, I literally haven’t taken it off since and I wear it all the time when I’m having my hair and make-up done, it’s so luxurious.”
