Love Island’s Toby forced to hit back after fans slammed his ‘cold’ swipe at ex Georgia
LOVE Island star Toby Aromolaran has been forced to defend himself after fans slammed his “cold” swipe at ex Georgia Steel.
The Sun first told how the couple had called it quits just one month after the All Stars series came to an end – as devastated Georgia revealed how she was blindsided by the decision.
Toby’s fans were quick to quiz him about the situation, with one person asking: “Anything you want to comment on the Georgia post?”
He replied using an image of himself rolling his eyes, writing: “Na, I’m cool.”
Some fans were shocked by his casual response and were quick to speculate that there was bad blood between the pair.
Toby has now hit back after followers claimed that he “hates” Georgia.
He took to social media and said: “I feel like some people are taking the ‘na I’m cool’ comment in a different way.
“Ofc I’m bothered, but I just think if I start talking about it, people start taking sides and that’s where the trolls come from so…
“And also although it’s very much in the public eye, I think it’s still a private thing to me.
“Anyway love you guys, thanks for the messages. I see them all.”
Georgia breaks silence
Earlier this week, Georgia said: “After seeing the reports regarding my relationship with Toby I feel it’s only right for me to be transparent and truthful with you all.
“It is true Toby has called things off.
“It has taken me by complete surprise and I’m still trying to process it and come to terms with it all.
“They say some people are in your life for a lifetime and some just for a chapter.”
Spark fizzled
The former couple faced intense scrutiny from fans and the cast of All Stars when they entered the spin-off show.
Just five months prior they had filmed another Love Island spin-off, The Games, in Fiji.
People questioned their romance in the All Stars villa and whether they were faking it to win.
They initially had a spark on Love Island Games, but it fizzled out.
Georgia and Toby then signed up to All Stars and their history rippled through the villa.
She kept her options open and even went to the Hideaway with Callum Jones.
But Toby told the villa during one recoupling that ‘fortune favours the brave’, and they ended up as a couple again.
The declaration of love convinced Georgia that Toby was ready to take their relationship seriously.
The pair left the villa exclusive but they both said they wanted to wait until they met each other’s families before becoming official.
