I know the real Helena and the truth about her being a ‘good time girl' – Love Island have set her up to look bad
SHE has been cruelly trolled for letting Harry Cooksley walk all over her in the Love Island villa, for 'being open' and even for laughing too much. The reaction has left those close to Advertisement 5 Helena is in a couple with Harry on Love Island - but he called her a 'good time girl' Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 5 Her hairdresser, Natalie Clayton, has come to Helena's defence Credit: St Helens Merseyside 5 Natalie says the edit has been unkind to Helena Credit: St Helens Merseysid 5 Helena is the oldest girl in the villa - and one of the most popular Credit: ITV One person who thinks Natalie Clayton, who owns NCWeave in Merseyside, has been doing Helena's hair for the last four years and did it just before she entered the villa. She has explained why people might think Helena is a 'good time girl', after Harry branded her that. She told us: 'I think she knows what Harry is like, and she's never been in a relationship before, and that's what people are forgetting, because she's just, she's just having fun.

The 29-year-old has been open about the fact she's never had a relationship before and Natalie thinks she's just embracing it all - rather than being bogged down in the details of relationships. 'Because of her job and her lifestyle, I don't think she's just ever thought about settling down yet,' Natalie told us. 'She loves travelling, she loves going out with her friends. So I think she's just never met that right person where she's wanted to settle down with them.'

Furious Love Island fans slam Helena as a 'hypocrite' as she goes to war with Shakira in explosive Movie Night She said: 'I think maybe the clips that have been heard have made it worse because I do think that Shakira has been worse with her than Helena has with Shakira and I don't understand why people can't see that coming across. 'At the end of the day they've just got a similar type and they've both gone for the same person and then she's been portrayed like she keeps going for her men. Advertisement 'But you can see Helena was shocked at that because she's not even realised and just been like we've got the same type and she was joking about it. 'And then I think Shakira, from what's been heard, she's been talking about Helena a hell of a lot more.' Natalie said her 'She just likes to keep herself to herself in her own little bubble and she just wants to be friends with everyone and get on with everyone,' she told us.
