Love Island’s Harriett Blackmore reignites feud with villa rival as she fumes ‘we’ll never be friends’
LOVE Island favourite Harriett Blackmore has opened up on her feud with her villa rival – and it’s clear there’s no love lost between them.
On Sunday night’s episode of Love Island: Aftersun, Harriett and Ronnie Vint joined host Maya Jama to dissect and debrief their time on the show.
During the chat, Harriett was quizzed about her long-standing feud with love rival Jess White, who she was trapped in a love triangle with for a large part of her time on the show.
“For me, with Jess, I feel like I’ve always tried to be a bigger person,” Harriett told Maya.
“You know, the comments that she was making that I’ve seen now, I had no idea about, and maybe I would’ve taken a different approach if i knew what she was saying behind my back.”
“But at the end of the day, I did have to put my foot down at one point because it was just getting too much,” she added.
“But I do wish her all the best, there’s no bad blood.”
When asked by Maya if there’s a chance of forming a friendship once Jess’s time on the show is over, Harriett laughed: “I think I’ll leave that one in the villa.”
Jess and Harriett were locked in numerous disagreements during their time together – largely over Ronnie, who they were both fighting for.
While Jess later backed down from Ronnie, saying she “was the prize” and wanted to feel like it, it didn’t do much to settle the awkward feeling between the girls.
At points, moments got so intensely awkward that viewers branded Jess a “bully” over her behaviour towards Harriett.
Last week, Jess was saved after a public vote caused Ronnie and Harriett to be brutally dumped.
Viewers were told to vote for their favourite couple, with those with the lowest votes being sent home.
In a final twist of the knife, it was Jess who got the text message that gave Ronnie and Harriett their marching orders.
