Love Island viewers have been left stunned after discovering that Mica Harris has a world-famous aunt - who happens to know Rihanna. The student, 21, has been living in London but actually hails from the sun-soaked island of Barbados.And back in the Caribbean, it turns out she has actually been rubbing shoulders with stars long before entering the villa - thanks to her aunt Mia Amor Mottley, the island's Prime Minister. The politician made history as the first woman to hold the position since the nation gained independence from Britain in 1966, and has since gained the support of some of Barbados' most famous figures - namely, pop icon Rihanna. Before she entered the Love Island villa earlier this week, Mica revealed she was actually introduced to the We Found Love hitmaker, 38, during a surprise visit to her home.She told reporters: 'She was staying two houses down from my grandparents and my aunt was taking me to see them.

Mica added: 'She's so graceful and how she will literally talk to anyone. The way she carries herself as well, I've definitely seen and taken inspiration from that. 'My family is full of very strong women and I'm very lucky and blessed to have been raised around these types of women. 'It's definitely moulded the way I go about my life entirely - including dating. I have very high standards.'
