With Love Island Australia 2024 drawing to a close (cue our collective tears) and the epic finale just around the corner, this season has delivered its fair share of unforgettable moments and unforgettable Islanders!
Among them is the stunning Krissy Bertone, the 25-year-old Bombshell from Perth. While she may not have found her perfect match in the villa, the gorgeous brunette strutted away as an undeniable fan favourite for many.
Here’s everything to know about her.
Outside Love Island, Krissy Bertone is a makeup artist and business owner
According to her show bio, Krissy is a professional makeup artist by day. The beauty also owns her own swimwear line, Bertone Swim, which is described on its Insta page as “Italian-inspired swimwear” – fitting, given Krissy’s Portuguese and Italian roots.
She’s also made quite the splash on socials even before stepping foot on Love Island, with over 380K followers on TikTok!
What was Krissy looking for on Love Island Australia 2024?
What was love on the brain for Krissy? When she first entered the villa, Krissy revealed that she was immediately drawn to Steph Blackos and Dylan Towolawi, describing them as her “tall, dark type.”
And she wasn’t shy about going after what she wanted. “Watch out for this little Sicilian-Portuguese pocket rocket,” she warned. “I will go after what I want in the villa. 100%.”
Who was Krissy coupled up with in the villa?
From the moment Krissy strutted into the Love Island villa during Episode 10, it was a bit of a rollercoaster. First, she had undeniable chemistry with Dylan… until his attention shifted to Sophie Mills. Ouch.
Next came Niko Fotopoulos, but their connection fizzled fast when Greek Goddess Mia Dalkos entered the scene. Krissy also seemed to suggest that Steph was keen, especially after the infamous “foot rub” incident.
Krissy’s final potential match was Taylor Reid, and things seemed to be heating up after their overnight stay at Hotel Amor. But in Love Island fashion, the drama wasn’t done. When eliminated contestant Hannah Steinfeld returned, Taylor had to choose between her and Krissy and, unfortunately for Krissy, her villa days came to an end.

What’s Krissy been up to since Love Island?
Since leaving the show, Krissy seems to be living her best life. She’s been busy spending time with fellow ex-Islanders like Xanthe Wessen. Yes, the same Xanthe who told her to “fuck off”!

But with the finale fast approaching and some familiar faces returning for the season’s second round of the “truth bike” segment, Krissy will make a comeback for one final hurrah on Love Island.
