Love Island: Sussex Islander Olivia Hawkins involved in 'toxic' love triangle amid bullying claims
Viewers of the popular ITV2 show saw Tom Clare say Olivia had the ‘best face’ in the villa, while his current partner Zara had the best body, during a game of truth or dare earlier this week.
Zara, 25, was left furious as she broke down into tears, telling Lana Jenkins: “No, I just can't be a***d. All the girls picked Tom. Liv picked Tom like twice. He picked Liv's face. I'm not just some f*****g booty to you.”

Tom told Zara: “I think you're a top girl and you have good intentions. I'll always be here for you.”
Following last night’s episode, fans took to social media and claimed Zara was being 'gaslit' and 'bullied’ by her fellow islanders.
One fan wrote: “If I was in the UK Ofcom would have to block me because of the amount of reports I would file on these bullies.”

Questions then began to be asked about whether Tom and Olivia would now get back together, having already been a couple earlier in the season.
