LOVE Island star Coco Lodge has been coined the “popular girl” at school but she’s also said to have had a “mean side.”
The 27-year-old graphic designer made an explosive entrance into the villa and in recent episodes she made her affections known, and shared a kiss with both Davide and Andrew.
Love Island viewers were left reeling as the brunette beauty made a dig at her love rival Tasha, who is coupled up with Andrew, 27, by saying “bye hun” to Tasha’s name tag by the bed.
Coco shocked viewers with her comment, but a source tells The Celeb Report she was viewed as a “mean girl” at school.
Coco was described by the source as a “popular girl who didn’t tend to date much” but who “had a mean side.”
They said Coco can be “agenda-led” and that Tasha is “much better suited” to Andrew, who has been packing on the PDA while Tasha is away in Casa Amor.
In response to the comments on Coco’s school persona, a source close to Coco said: “It’s disappointing that someone would anonymously say these things about Coco when she cannot defend herself.
“Coco is a kind, funny and loyal friend who we’re really enjoying watching on screen and hope people are loving getting to know her.”
Andrew was seen making his move on Coco in Monday night’s episode – despite Davide Sanclimenti kissing her just minutes earlier.
Andrew, who is convinced Tasha is “making him look like a mug”, jumped at the chance of sharing a bed with her, and invited Coco onto the roof terrace.
Once they had kissed, he then spilled the beans to the boys as they sat around the fire pit together.
“I basically told her I’m definitely interested in her,” Andrew relayed. “She was a bit shocked, she didn’t realise I was interested in her.”
But fans of the ITV2 show are shocked at Andrew’s behaviour towards Tasha, who appears to be remaining loyal in Casa Amor.
One tweeted: “Andrew proving he’s not a mug being used to by Tasha, by making himself a mug kissing Coco who’s playing him and Davide to stay on the island.”
A second wrote: “Andrew is an absolute t*** for kissing Coco when he is supposedly so into Tasha.”
