Love Island legend reveals unexpected ‘friendship’ with Khloe Kardashian
LOVE Island star Shaughna Phillips rode a roller coaster of emotions as she struck up an Instagram friendship with Khloe Kardashian.
The popular Brit reality star was as surprised as anyone when Khloe interacted with her on the social media site.
Commenting on Khloe’s loving tribute to son Tatum yesterday, Shaughna wrote: “Omg he is rob!!!”
The Rob in question is Khloe’s little brother.
It caught the eye of Khloe, who wrote: “He really is! Ha.”
Getting a response from the US reality star is no mean feat considering she has 311 million followers.
One commented: “You and @khloekardashian the friendship no one saw coming.”
Shaughna, who found fame on the 2020 edition of winter Love Island, replied: “I’ve just been sick, died, gone to heaven and come back again.”
Another Khloe follower wrote: “A Love Island UK fan. Love to see it @shaughnaphillips.”
Khloe isn’t the only A-list name to be obsessed with the dating franchise. Hollywood star Margot Robbie is arguably the show’s most famous super-fan and was joined by an array of Island alum on the pink carpet at the recent London premiere of Barbie.
Meanwhile, The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star celebrated Tatum’s first birthday with a heartfelt post.
The youngster was born by surrogate and is a product of her relationship with on-off boyfriend Tristan Thompson.
She wrote: “Happy birthday, my sweet son!
“I am a firm believer in that God gives you what you need and I needed you. God knew my heart needed you.
I needed your sweet and precious Smile. I needed your angelic spirit. I needed a love only you could give me.
I needed my son.
I am so proud to be your mommy. So proud of the love and laughter we have in our house. So proud of your beautiful, gentle, loving, infectious spirit. You light up every single room. There’s no denying that Everyone smiles when they look at you! Especially True, she is so proud to call you hers.
Tatum, You have changed mine and True’s lives forever. We both needed you. I knew she would be a fantastic, loving older sister, but I don’t think I ever could’ve imagined the love and bond you guys already have. You both remind me so much of uncle Bob and I. It’s fitting since I think you look soooo much like your uncle. (Which means I think you look like my dad too).”
