Furious Love Island star Olivia slams Tanyel saying she’s ‘lying’ about her for fame

LOVE Island star Olivia Hawkins has raged that Tanyel is “lying about her for fame”.

Olivia, 27, opened up about her online beef with fellow islander Tanyel Revan, 26 since leaving the show. 

Tanyel and Olivia apparently locked horns in the villa because Olivia allegedly “stole” Kai off her – leaving her blindsided.

Now Olivia has spoken out about the online feud, saying she believes Tanyel is behaving different to how she was in the villa.

Chatting to hosts Bobby Norris and Stephen Leng on the showbiz gossip programme Access All Areas, the reality star spoke candidly about how she believes Tanyel is acting differently since leaving the show.

Olivia said:  “For me personally, maybe Tanyel [Revan]. I thought we really got on in the villa. We had our ups and downs but when she left I thought we were good. I’ve been seeing a lot said on podcasts and things so I’d have to say Tanyel.

She added: “I think she thinks that myself, Shaq [Muhammad] and Tanya [Manhenga] were the ones setting her up to leave but that absolutely was not the case. She had said multiple times that her and Jordan [Odofin] weren’t really more than friends and with Spencer [Wilks] as well.” 

The reality star added:  “I guess she’s had the chance to meet with both of them on the outside and she hasn’t so that just says it all. I just think to put other girls down to boost your lie is just not on. We haven’t spoken. I saw her at the finale and I gave her a hug just to say hi but we haven’t really spoken.” 

After Olivia was dumped Tanyel predicted it wouldn’t last between the pair – and it didn’t.

Tanyel and Zara previously made their feelings clear about Olivia after she was dumped from the villa.

Shortly after her exit was announced, Zara tweeted: “Alexa play God Did by DJ Khaled.”

And when a fan joked that she should be on her “best behaviour”, Zara told them: “I promise I’m trying.”

Tanyel was also keen to celebrate Olivia’s exit as she tagged Zara in a post about it.

Speaking about her issues with Olivia, Zara said:  “Every little thing I was doing in there she felt was a dig at her. I felt like I couldn’t win with her – nothing I was doing was right.”

Later in the interview, the ring-girl and actress responded to rumours that she had split up with her Love Island partner Maxwell Samuda.

She shared: “We are absolutely fine. Even though I’ve been on the show, I am still a private person. I’m not the sort of person to upload every single thing that we’re doing. We went out for lunch the other day. He’s gone to Mexico.

“Probably not the best choice of trips. He booked it before the show. I quite like it, it’s healthy for us to have time apart. We’re good.” 

She continued: “I hope he’s on his best behaviour, I’m sure he will be. We still need to go on our first official date. We’ve been to McDonalds, KFC and Pizza Express. We need to do our nice dinner date out.”
