Love Island's Chloe Burrows sparks concern as she shows off swollen face before sporting an eyepatch amid mystery ailment
Chloe Burrows has sparked concern among her fans after sharing a snap of herself with a swollen face.
The Love Island star, 29, took to Instagram on Tuesday to ask her followers how their morning was going, but instead garnered attention for her bruised and swollen eye and slightly puffy cheeks.
Chloe looked glum in the snap in which she went make-up free, with the blonde beauty's eye partially closed amid the mystery ailment.
In her next Instagram story, Chloe was quick to ensure her fans that she was fine, however, she did little to quell the concern as she was seen sporting a black eyepatch.
Giving a thumbs up while displaying the eye covering, Chloe penned: 'Guys the last story was meant to be funny pls don't be concerned x Regular programming by force.'
MailOnline have contacted Chloe's representatives for comment.

Earlier this year, Chloe shared a very 'traumatising' experience from her trip to Australia.
The reality star spent Christmas and New Year down under with best pal Millie Court, Liam Reardon and a group of their friends.
Despite clearly having a lot of fun during the holiday, Chloe admitted she had one bad experience where lifeguards were forced to rescue her from a riptide.
On Joe Baggs' Not My Bagg podcast, he asked Chloe if she had any wild stories to tell listeners.
Chloe then shared: 'On Christmas day we went to Bronte Beach and it was an actual rave on the beach. I really need a wee and they had public toilets but the queue was f***ing huge so I was like, 'I'll just go in the sea I don't care.'
'So, I run with my friend down to the water to go for a wee and I got in and I'm trying to go for a wee and this huge wave, and I am drunk, like I should not be swimming it is unsafe and was very silly of me, but anyways this huge wave is taking me out.
'I got caught in a riptide so I'm now so far away from the shore and I'm like trying to call my friends.'
Joe asked: 'Did you still go for a wee?'
She replied: 'Yeah well I p***ed myself from being scared. I probably s*** in the sea as well, it was really traumatising and then two lifeguards are coming and pull me back to shore and I was just a drunk mess. It was just pure chaos.'
Chloe shared several stunning snaps to social media from her time in Australia, including one in a skimpy red bikini on Christmas day.
It comes after Chloe went public with her new romance, three years after her Toby Aromolaran split.
The influencer, who shot to fame on Love Island in 2021 with Toby, went public with her new man, Ruben Moreira as she moved on from her former romance.
She posted a picture on her Instagram Stories of her and Ruben, with fans immediately taking this to mean she was 'soft launching' her new relationship.
It's understood Chloe met Ruben through Love Island co-star and pal Liam Reardon, as the two men are friends.

Samie Elishi fails to acknowledge boyfriend Sam Thompson's charity challenge after he insisted he DIDN'T want her there
LOVE Island star Samie Elishi has publicly ignored her boyfriend Sam Thompson's completion of his gruelling 260-mile challenge. Samie, 25, has remained silent on social media despite 32-year-old Sam limping across the finish line at Old Trafford this morning. 6 6 6 Sam broke down in tears as he reached the end of his five-day journey from Stamford Bridge, which he completed by running and cycling. But there to greet him at the finish line was his sister Louise, her partner Ryan Libbey and their son Leo. Samie was believed to still be in London after spending Thursday night at a Secret House Party in Soho with Stormzy and US rapper Nelly. Before setting off on his challenge, which has raised more than £1million for Soccer Aid and Unicef, Sam ruled out Samie making an appearance. Despite dating the Love Island star since April, he was cheered off the starting line by Louise and Ryan. Sam was asked by Mail Online if Samie would be there to support him during the five-day challenge, but he replied: "I feel like... this is so much more than who I'm dating or hooking up with. "And I feel like it would take away from what it is going on. You know what I mean? "You know, If I had a wife or something like, like a girlfriend of years it might be a different. "I just think that I don't want to do anything that will take away from this challenge and Unicef - the spotlight needs to be on them." Last week, The Sun told how Sam and Samie were "still together" after being spotted kissing in the street at the beginning of May. Sam Thompson breaks down in tears as he's comforted by sister Louise and family after completing 260-mile endurance challenge on This Morning The King of the Jungle moved on with Love Island beauty Samie in April after his split from girlfriend Zara McDermott. But they abruptly stopped exchanging flirty Instagram likes and messages, and have not been seen out together in weeks. Samie also failed to support Sam during his emotional announcement that he's been diagnosed with autism. A source said: "They're still very much together, but are taking it slow. "They're not interested in putting on a show for people and want to get to know each other properly away from the public eye." Meanwhile, Sam crossed the finish line of his Soccer Aid challenge live on ITV1's This Morning on Friday. He had suffered a tear in his calf but managed to limp to the end with his leg in a bandage. Sam had been transporting the Soccer Aid ball ahead of this year's charity match, which takes place on Sunday June 15. During his five-day stint, Sam was surprised by his best friend Pete Wicks. Hollywood actor Orlando Bloom also spurred him on as he neared the end. At the time of crossing the finish line, Sam had raised £1,516,433 for Unicef. 6 6 6

Mel C flaunts her sizzling six-pack as she shares slew of snaps from recent trip Down Under - including a loved-up display with new boyfriend Chris Dingwall
Mel C flaunted her rock hard abs in a slew of snaps on Instagram on Thursday while reflecting on her recent trip Down Under. Sporty Spice, 50, jetted off to Australia in March with her boyfriend Chris Dingwall ahead of the Australian Grand Prix - where she was booked to play a DJ set. But after returning back to the UK in preparation for festival season, Mel is seemingly suffering with holiday blues as she gave fans an insight into her getaway. Captioning the post: 'Missing life down under,' the first photo shared by the pop star showed her indulging in some seaside yoga while showing off her impressive physique. Donning a pair of shorts and a dark blue sports bra, Mel flaunted her sizzling six-pack while stretching her arms towards the sky for the snap. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Her abs were again on show in an later photo, with Sporty Spice unsurprisingly enjoying a visit to the gym in a matching shorts and bra combo. It wasn't all sports and yoga for Mel Down Under however, with the slew revealing that she had taken in a Dua Lipa performance during her trip away. And the 50-year-old seemed to be having a whale of a time watching the British superstar's Radical Optimism tour, with Mel filmed dancing the night away in the crowd. In another video, Mel revealed exactly how she manages to wear stilettos for an entire day - by taping her toes together. The footage showed a man - presumably her stylist - prepping the Spice Girl to slip into a pair of heels while explaining exactly how the method works. 'The science says that by taping toe two and three together, it will redistribute the pressure on the foot meaning Melanie can do a full day in the world's most heeled high heels,' he said. '(Our inspiration is) Vanessa Williams while performing in The Devil Wears Prada, she told the world that this was the secret to getting through a full day in stilettos, and let's see if she's a liar.' Mel also put on a loved-up display with her film director boyfriend Chris, who is believed to be in his 40s, in a selfie shared to her Instagram on Thursday. While it remains unclear how the couple met, they confirmed romance rumours last June when they attended Glastonbury together. Chris - who stands at around 185cm tall - is a model who has also tried his hand at acting, writing and film directing. During their time together in Australia, the couple were pictured sharing a cheeky kiss while enjoying a day on the beach. Since going public with their romance, Mel and Chris have also enjoyed a summer break in Ibiza together. They were seen sharing a steamy kiss during a PDA-filled boat ride on the island. In July, Mel also cosied up to her new partner as they enjoyed a day out at Wimbledon in south west London. The singer keeps her love life largely out of the spotlight but previously spoke about how she was banned from dating in the early days of the Spice Girls - while her bandmates were free to pursue romances. 'Looking back what struck me was it was one rule for one and another for the others, right?' she previously told Australia's The Project. 'I think when you are vulnerable as well, people go, I don't think it's good for you'. Mel said the rule for the other women was, 'she is fine, she can have a boyfriend, she can cope with having a boyfriend, she is strong enough but you are not'. 'It makes you question yourself when you are already vulnerable,' Mel added. On Thursday, it was reported that Simon Fuller – the man who managed the band, created Brand Beckham and helped found Victoria Beckham's fashion empire – is keen to organise a tour to mark the group's 30th anniversary next year. He has the support of Mel C, Mel B and Emma Bunton, and has spent more than a year trying to win Geri Halliwell-Horner round to the idea. A source told The Mail's Alison Boshoff: 'Geri isn't interested in stepping foot on a stage again.' So the plan she agreed to was for Abba-style avatars of the girls, which would 'perform' in concert. But Victoria is being left out of discussions and will not be part of the virtual line-up. A source said: 'Simon Fuller planning a tour has caused yet another schism. Victoria is f****d off that they have gone with him and there is no way that she will be a part of it. 'The bad feeling seems to go back to her and David having to spend millions on buying him out of Beckham Brand Holdings. He still has a stake and board seat on her fashion business. There is resentment there. 'Geri wants to do the avatars idea. She isn't interested in coming back and doing a tour. She doesn't need to. This is the one idea which Simon has had which has tempted her.' The source added: 'Simon Fuller is the only person who could get Geri to rejoin the Spice Girls, but he is the one person in the world who could never persuade Victoria.' No wonder only Mel C and Emma Bunton went to Mel B's 50th birthday celebrations in Leeds last weekend. All of the 'girls' showed up for Victoria's 50th birthday last year, but it seems that they are in separate camps once again. In fact, there has not yet been a meeting to discuss plans with Geri and the other Spice Girls in the same room because 'at any given point
