A Love Island star living in Dubai has shared her plans to hide her family in a storage cupboard amid Iran’s retaliatory strikes around the Middle East.

Appearing on Good Morning Britain on Monday (2 March), Arabella Chi said that she was the “most scared she’s ever been in her entire life”.

Chi moved to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) six months ago with her partner and newborn baby.

She said that Dubai residents have been advised to stay clear of windows, so she has cleared out her windowless storage cupboard to function as a makeshift shelter.
