Love Island’s biggest feuds and bust-ups outside the villa after Demi Jones called out her ‘stuck up’ co-stars

by

For many Islanders, the real drama only begins once they’ve left the villa behind.

Behind the scenes, friendships weaken, relationships become strained, and competition heats up as people are under the pressure and scrutiny of the media’s attention.

Disputes on social media, critical comments made during podcasts, and chilly encounters on the red carpet have ensured that ex-competitors continue to make news even after their series has concluded.

As a dedicated devotee, I’ve noticed that some grievances swiftly dissipate, while others transform into intense feuds that ignite passionate discussions among followers.

The fallout often proves more gripping than the summer of love that came before it.

The Daily Mail reviews some enduring Love Island disagreements that continued post-show.

Demi Jones dishes dirt on ‘stuck up’ co-stars 

On the most recent episode of “Spill With Will,” Demi Jones discussed various topics related to life beyond Love Island, following her appearance on the show in 2020.

In their discussion about the industry and its authentic face, Demi shared some intriguing insights about celebrities she has encountered, revealing their true colors when not in front of the camera.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I found myself mingling at an influencer gathering the previous evening, where the atmosphere was electric with intriguing conversations and serendipitous encounters. Among these luminaries were familiar faces from past seasons of Love Island, as well as some fresh additions to the mix.

She told the host, “I assume you’ve met Will before at events, as some of the Islanders can be quite full of themselves.

In a similar vein, referencing a popular TikTok tune, he also mentioned, “You know, even with only 30 minutes at your disposal, if you maintain that attitude, you still have 30 minutes.

Demi went on to say: “However, my dear, since we won’t meet again for half a year, let’s make our interaction pleasant for the moment.

I’ve observed that some of the brief-appearing cast members on the reality show seem to carry quite an impressive sense of self, if I may put it gently.

He affirmed its accuracy, then commented, ‘Those who appear on the show for about five minutes tend to have inflated self-importance.'”

This maintains the original sentiment while making it more natural and easy to read.

Demi laughed back: ‘I agree, I agree!’

As a dedicated follower, I found myself being urged to treat everyone with kindness, for one never truly knows the significance of the people we engage with.

Kady McDermott threatens Mitch Taylor with legal action 

Last year, following a clash outside the villa, Kady McDermott warned Mitch Taylor that she would take him to court over the incident where their heads collided.

Previously, the ex-gas engineer had forcefully criticized Kady following her comments on several podcasts.

She labeled him as an avid fan of Love Island, asserting that he had attempted to secure a spot in the villa no less than four times.

Mitch then fuelled rumours that Kady had a secret boyfriend when she made her return to the show.

Kady shared a detailed message on social platforms, discussing the aftermath of certain allegations made by Mitch. She mentioned that she has consulted with legal professionals regarding some of his statements.

From now on, regarding my account of this person, I’ll no longer provide further comments without charging him for my time.

Subsequently, she clarified that her administration intended to pursue a legal remedy should Mitch persist in making untrue declarations about her personal history before the villa when speaking in public.

At that moment, Kady mentioned she took a sincere apology from Mitch’s previous management and chose to dismiss the lawsuit because she didn’t wish to spend unnecessary time or resources.

In response to renewing her disagreement with her ex-colleague, Kady stated, “Just a couple of weeks after this incident, Mitch was let go by his management. Then, in December 2023, he audaciously contacted my management, asking them to manage him – simply astonishing!

It’s quite amusing, indeed, when one is deemed as insignificant by someone who, in reality, holds little relevance themselves. Absolutely hilarious!

For a brief period, he gained significance due to his reprehensible actions towards women, which unfortunately, some people found amusing.

‘Safe flight home Messy Mitch.’

Coco Lodge and Summer Botwe’s ‘heated exchange’

As a dedicated follower, I found myself right in the midst of an intense conversation between Coco Lodge and Summer Botwe during filming for the reunion show. The atmosphere was charged, brimming with the promise of high-drama that fans can look forward to.

The gathering that aired on Sunday evening had been filmed earlier, on Thursday night, and featured the majority of the 2022 participants in attendance.

Additionally, a spectator posted about the incident on social networks, alleging that the producers intervened due to a heated argument among the Casa Amor surprises, which viewers believe is related to Josh Le Grove.

A spectator posted on Twitter: “At the #LoveIslan reunion taping today, there was a hot argument between Coco and Summer. The crew intervened and ended the dispute.

‘During the discussion, Summer voiced her view that friends may not always appear friendly on the surface. In response, Coco attempted to explain that it was just joking or playful banter. The conversation continued back and forth about Josh and Billy for several minutes. It’s clear that the production team had no insight into the context of this exchange from the podcast episode.’

After the exchange, it was apparent that Coco had left. Some audience members encouraged her to rejoin us again, so we had to encourage her with applause.

Luca hurriedly approached Jay, Charlie, and Antigoni’s table to hear the latest news since the commotion on the couch seemed quite unusual.

Recently, the friendship between the girls has become cold as they stopped following each other on social media, shortly after departing from the villa.

Supporters contend that the two friends might be having a falling-out, as Coco publicly denied Josh’s romantic advances when he was rumored to be with Summer – causing speculation and potential conflict between them.

In a conversation on the Saving Grace podcast, Coco referred to Josh as incredibly physically fit. Moreover, she hinted that there was a strong possibility they came close to spending a night together, following their elimination from the villa.

In simpler terms, the speaker shared with host Grace Barry that following their break-up with Josh, they were accommodated in a villa close by, under the supervision of two chaperones.

Grace immediately cut in to ask: ‘Did you sh*g him?’

Coco responded, “Not at the moment, and to be honest, I’m a bit irritated because I think I might have had the chance earlier. Now talking to him feels like it should have occurred.

He exhibited a hint of enthusiasm, saying something along the lines of “I feel quite amorous,” and I responded by heading off to bed. However, I find myself puzzled as to why I did so, for I must admit, he is incredibly attractive.

She continued with, ‘Now we’re very connected, spending nearly every day, from morning till night. I’ve asked him, “Please let me have one attempt, Josh.”‘

Fans found it surprising, as they thought Coco had been friends with Summer since their time together at Casa Amor.

Maura Higgins and Olivia Attwood ‘copying’ claims

Maura Higgins found herself caught up in a heated verbal exchange with Olivia Attwood, who claimed that the model from Ireland was mimicking her professional path and spreading falsehoods during television appearances.

It’s become clear that a long-standing feud between Love Island alums has been simmering beneath the surface for quite some time. However, Maura’s actions during her time in the Australian jungle seemed to push Olivia to publicly express her disapproval of Maura, hinted through several cryptic Instagram posts.

One of Olivia’s friends revealed to TopMob the specific reason behind the documentary-maker deciding to speak out about the ongoing disagreement, a situation that shows no signs of resolving soon.

Olivia, the wife of footballer Bradley Dack, suspects Maura may be trying to replace her as the standout contestant on ITV’s Love Island by following a similar strategy that brought her fame, such as citing ‘revenge on an ex’ as her motivation for joining the ITV2 dating show and hiring the same public relations firm.

Olivia’s friend thinks Maura might be embellishing the truth to appear more bold on TV, such as claiming she cleaned a toilet with her ex’s toothbrush to get back at him for cheating, an event she earlier connected to her breakup with Curtis Pritchard when that relationship was still significant.

The models have similar professional paths, as they initially worked as Monster Energy Girls and subsequently joined Love Island and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!. However, it was Olivia who debuted on both programs first, although she had to depart the jungle for medical reasons prematurely. Now, Olivia alleges that Maura is capitalizing on her success, which Olivia plans to uncover in a revealing memoir.

At a celebratory gathering organized by cosmetic company Space NK at Claridge’s, just prior to Maura’s journey to Australia, the strain between them was clearly noticeable, as reported by sources, who mentioned they barely exchanged words.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I must admit I’ve had several conversations with friends about the intriguing narrative unfolding on ‘I’m A Celeb’. Some are left scratching their heads over Maura’s storyline on Sunday’s episode, and there’s a murmur of speculation that perhaps it’s being exaggerated for added drama.

She shared with her fellow campers that she joined Love Island as a means of getting back at an ex-boyfriend who had been unfaithful, mentioning an instance where she utilized his toothbrush for cleaning the bathroom.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but recall an intriguing tidbit that surfaced after her separation with Curtis Pritchard back in 2020. Rumors swirled that she had an unusual cleaning method involving his toothbrush and a certain bathroom fixture, which she casually shared with her followers, adding fuel to the intrigue!

Olivia found herself on Love Island with a mission to seek revenge against Bradley Dack. Fortunately for them both, this plan led to their happy marriage.

Maura appears to be shaping her career by following the impressive path laid by Olivia.

Last year on Instagram, Olivia subtly expressed her frustration with Maura by posting: “I’ve been keeping some things zipped for years, but one day I’ll write a book and it’s going to blow your socks off.” (zip emoji)

Regardless of attempting to rehire the same individuals, claiming my tales as your own, studying the guide, or following the recipe step by step, it will *always* lack the original flavor. This is simply to say.

DailyMail contacted Maura and Olivia’s representatives for comment.

Diamante Laiva and Ruby Dale’s online swipes

Tensions were high at the reunion party for the 11th series between two Casa Amor girls.

A heated dispute arose between Diamante Laiva and Ruby Dale, each taking turns to voice their perspectives during a live stream on Instagram.

Ruby asserted that things took a turn for the worse when they both attended an afterparty, only to discover later on that she had been blocked by Diamante.

Diamante stated that she believed Ruby may have struggled due to the complications arising from the Sean affair.

According to The Sun’s report, Ruby shared that they attended an event together, went out afterwards, but Diamante left immediately following the event and subsequently blocked Ruby.

‘She messaged me a big long message and I said, no hun, I’ve got no problem.’

Diamante then rebuffed claims she blocked Ruby or was ‘drunk’.

As a fervent enthusiast, I’m compelled to share this: Folks, I swear by the books, I steer clear of the spirits. Why, you ask? Simply because they can lead you astray. Just moments ago, I found myself embroiled in a heated exchange with her, all thanks to the influence of those intoxicating concoctions.

Friends, it seems I’m having a tough run lately. I feel like I’m constantly on the defensive and haven’t had a moment to relax. In fact, I came here hoping for a laid-back evening, but things haven’t quite panned out as planned.

What’s making you angry about me blocking you? Let it go, remember I explicitly explained that the problem was with your negative energy.”

This version aims to maintain the original message but uses simpler language and more conversational tone.

After that, I chose to limit our interaction. Frankly, I’m aiming for a peaceful evening and prefer to avoid unnecessary complications. As it happens, I believe I deserve better than this situation.

Going one step further, Diamante shared the WhatsApp message she had sent to Ruby.

According to the text, it was mentioned that she believed Ruby had an issue with her ever since the ‘Sean situation’, and she prefers not to be a disingenuous friend. In Casa Amor, Sean Stone seemed to have given attention to Matilda Draper while flirting with Ruby, culminating in a kiss with Diamante.

Molly Marsh ‘left out’ of group chat 

Molly Marsh addressed the ongoing feud rumours between herself and the other Love Island finalists.

In the 10th season of the ITV2 reality show, the musical theater artist finished in fourth position, simultaneously performing with her then-partner, Zachariah Noble.

Upon departing from the villa, the couple has been confronted with whispers of conflicts with their co-stars. Particularly, Kady McDermott made a remark suggesting that Molly did not interact with the other females when the cameras were off.

Upon arriving, I found my place and connected effortlessly, for I lacked that one special friend who could resonate with me. Instead, I sought solace by heading to the poolside to sunbathe and unwind, taking moments to reflect on the world beyond myself. If I hadn’t done so, I might have succumbed to the stress.

Host Amanda Nicole Hirsch asked: ‘Would the others ask why don’t you hang out with us more?’

She replied: ‘Yes, but then they got to know that was just me.’

The host inquired, “Does it not concern you at all that Jess, Ella, Catherine, and Whitney are such close friends they share a group chat and you’re not included? Or perhaps you don’t feel excluded by this?

Molly responded: “No, I guess I wasn’t surprised by that outcome. That was my expectation, and so it is what it is. It might be for the better if I’m not present. Yes, I had anticipated that.

Initially, I didn’t reveal much of my feelings to them due to wanting to protect my own emotional wellbeing and avoid unnecessary discussions about me.

Whitney Adebayo hits out at ‘game players’

Whitney Adebayo potentially stirred up potential conflict among her fellow actors by openly criticizing those she perceived as manipulators within the show.

In an episode of the Saving Grace podcast hosted by GK Barry, the former contestant from the reality show (who finished second alongside her partner Lochan Nowacki in 2023) spilled some juicy details.

Whitney criticized her previous friends harshly, stating that it’s uncommon for individuals to join Love Island with sincere motivations. In essence, she emphasized that it’s a contest of the strongest survivors.
