Love Island feud escalates as Olivia brands rivals ‘Mean Girls’
LOVE Island’s Olivia Hawkins branded villa rivals Zara Lackenby-Brown and Tanyel Revan “Mean Girls” in a new podcast interview.
Show ‘villain’ Olivia, 27, appeared on ex-islander Toby Aromolaran’s Fancy a Chat? podcast and hit out at her co-stars for sniping at her in TikTok videos.
She said: “It’s like don’t you have anything better to do? Go and live your life and smash it.
“It’s really giving Mean Girls behaviour and I don’t stand for it.
“I don’t retaliate. What is it going to gain for me? It’s just not worth it. I wish them all the best. I just wish they’d stop going in on me on social media.”
Olivia knew fellow beauty Zara before their time on the show, having starred in music videos together.
While Olivia fell out with Tanyel after ‘stealing’ Kai Fagan from her.
Earlier this week, Olivia opened up about her death threat hell after her stint in the villa.
Olivia narrowly missed out on a place in the final alongside her beau Maxwell Samuda when they were both dumped from the Love Island villa on day 45.
But since being back in the UK the ring girl has received some awful messages online.
Olivia said: “It’s hard.
“And obviously because of the social media change, the trolling hadn’t been filtered out, so I was the one having to see it all by myself when I left the villa, which was really difficult.”
Back in December, it was revealed that the family and friends of the Islanders were banned from posting on their social media accounts during the show, and their accounts were dormant.
Olivia also opened up about what she has found the hardest thing to deal with post-villa.
She added to New magazine: “The mental health aspects of fame and trolling.
“When you get the nasty comments – and I have had quite a lot of death threats – you just don’t expect it at all.
“So when you see it, you’re just completely shocked.”
