Dumped Love Island star Scott takes a swipe at Mitch and Tyrique with savage dig
DUMPED Love Island star Scott van der Sluis has taken aim at co-stars Mitch Taylor and Tyrique Hyde after being dumped from the villa.
Goalkeeper Scott had a tough time on the show, facing a barrage of claims from the lads that he was a ‘game player’.
Viewers often voiced their concerns at the way Scott was treated in the villa, claiming he was unfairly targeted and frozen out at times.
Nevertheless, the sportsman soldiered on until he was eliminated this week after a final clash with Mitch in which he branded him a “f*****g k**bhead”.
Scott thanked fans for their support in his first tweet since leaving the villa.
He followed it by writing: “Ooof how nice is it to have your phone back, also really nice to not be called a game player 74 times a day.”
Scott, 22, was given the boot alongside Abi Moores during Wednesday night’s Love Island.
He has no plans to reunite with ex Catherine Agbaje, also 22, after she ditched him during Casa Amor.
Speaking following his exit, Scott said: “I didn’t think I told Catherine enough before Casa Amor about how I was feeling.
“At the same time I stayed loyal when I had the opportunity to go elsewhere. It wasn’t as if I went into Casa Amor and no-one liked me – I spoke to Gabby [Jeffrey] a bit but chose to stay loyal to Catherine.
“She didn’t do the same thing but hopefully it works out for her. Once the situation is put to bed for me, it’s done and there is no going back.”
Scott was left blindsided when Catherine returned from Casa Amor with Elom Ahlijah-Wilson.
But he insisted it didn’t take him long to get over Catherine’s shock betrayal.
He said: “So many thoughts were going through my mind at the time, I didn’t know what I’d be surprised at and what I wouldn’t.
“In the back of my mind, I wanted to try and prepare for it and then it obviously happened. I got over the situation pretty quickly so I wasn’t down about it.”
Scott and Catherine ended up falling out during Movie Night when a clip was shown of him saying his head could turn.
