ROGUE Love Island hunk Harry Cooksley has been labelled a 'serial sh**ger' by an ex who claims he was involved with TWELVE girls in the run-up to the show.
The gold dealer and semi-pro footballer, 30, had the quickest Hideaway sleepover ever after he spent the night with air hostess Helena Ford just 56 hours into the ITV2 series — even though they were not coupled up.

Ahead of Monday night's final, in which Harry is set to feature, one stunning ex told The Sun on Sunday she was 'not shocked' by his daring move.
The woman, who did not want to be named, added that she has been contacted by 'about 12 women' over social media who, like her, thought they were in a relationship with Harry at different times over the past year.
She also revealed that his most recent former flame, Emma Munro — who sensationally joined the villa as a bombshell four weeks into the series — still has her clothes in his wardrobe at home despite their break-up and him bringing other girls back there.
'Badly treated'
The ex, a model in her 20s, said: 'I am actually distraught about it all. I have been really struggling to get through this.
'I thought we were serious and now I cannot get over how much he can do this to girls and get away with it.
He is a serial sh**ger and the way he has treated me and others is disgusting
The ex
'The amount of women he has hurt is unbelievable.
'We have all linked up over social media and there are just more and more coming forward to say how badly they've been treated.
'A few of us were led to believe we were in exclusive relationships with him.
'Others he was just dating or hooking up with casually. It's disgusting.'
She added: 'I am really worried about the women currently on the show.

'He is a serial sh**ger and the way he has treated me and others is disgusting.
'I just really hope he doesn't get the platform to be on Love Island until the final.
'He doesn't deserve it.'
When it was revealed in June that Harry was going to be in the villa, some women took to social media to express their shock.
One, Emilia Clark, said: 'He liked me on [dating app] Hinge two weeks ago.'
Another with the name fitbritbill said: 'Harry took my sister-in-law out for a date about eight weeks ago and couldn't pay for it.
'Let's hope they don't charge for drinks in the villa — haha.'
One more, under the name Lcy_brooks, wrote: 'Do we know who has access to Harry's online banking so he can pay my friend back for the drinks he owes her from their date.'
'Daisyflolamb' added: 'That's funny because he was also exclusively dating my friend for the past seven months. Someone give Harry a calculator cos the math ain't mathing???'
Another alleged he had split with their pal days before Love Island started, claiming it was because he was going to Bali.
They said: 'Don't forget they broke up on Wednesday & he told her he was going to BALI.'
One of Emma Munro's friends claimed that her clothes are still hanging in the wardrobe at his home.
They said: 'Her whole side of the wardrobe is still full, yet he has girls in her bed.'

She also flagged this to the ex-girlfriend, who told us.
Meanwhile, on the show, viewers first saw Harry get close to model Shakira Khan, 22, as they cuddled and kissed on camera.
But then, within 24 hours, he disappeared into the Hideaway with blonde air hostess Helena, 29.
The Hideaway lets couples share a bed, with no one else in the same room, unlike in the rest of the villa.
Afterwards, the pair insisted they had shared just a 'PG kiss' and a cuddle.
Even then, Harry was still telling others that he felt something for Shakira and that he thought she had 'more substance' than Helena, who he had just coupled up with.
He also flirted heavily with the villa's new arrival, Angel Swift, telling her: 'I'm very attracted to you.'
Eventually, all the girls turned on Harry, accusing him of messing with Helena's feelings after he dumped her.
But he did not appear put off as this week he re-coupled with Shakira.
And the pair have now been shown sharing a bed, kissing and cuddling together.
On Tuesday's show, Harry apologised to Helena's parents on the segment where contestants' families are briefly brought into the villa to see their loved ones.
Can that be seen as progress?
It might be the best we can hope for.

Love Island star Yasmin Pettet is left heartbroken as she reveals her beloved cat Miaow Miaow has died following cancer battle
Love Island finalist Yasmin Pettet has revealed her beloved cat Miaow Miaow has sadly died from cancer. The reality star, 24, often spoke lovingly about her pet during her time in the villa, but heartbreakingly, Miaow Miaow passed away from cancer at the age of 11 while Yasmin was still filming the show. Announcing the news on Instagram on Wednesday evening, Yasmin wrote: 'As I've spoken about her on the show I'm sure a lot of you will know I have a cat called miaow miaow who's been by my side for 11 years now. She continued: 'When I was filming Love Island I had a bad gut feeling something was off and when my mum and sister came into the villa I asked them and still felt like something was off. 'Rightfully they didn't tell me because I was still in the villa but after the final I called my sister and she told me that miaow miaow had cancer and died whilst I was away filming Love Island. 'I'm trying to be as active as I can be on socials but am taking time for myself to process this heartbreak. She concluded the heartbreaking post: 'RIP to my beautiful baby girl, you were so loved and will always be in my soul.' Yasmin, who came in third place with her partner Jamie Rhodes, 26, returned to social media earlier today to thank fans for their support throughout her journey. She said: 'My love island journey has been crazy to say the least but I really wouldn't have been able to do it without my Jamie, Toni and Shakira. 'I feel so grateful and blessed and can't wait to see what the future holds.' Jamie, who affectionately describes Yasmin as having 'black cat energy', praised her now that they're back home, writing: 'Absolutely smashed it, wouldn't want to do the journey with anyone else.' It comes after ITV released the voting breakdown for the final, confirming it was the closest result in the show's history. In total, Toni and Cach received 33.5% of the vote, with Shakira Khan and Harry Cooksley taking 26.2% - showing the result was a close call. Yasmin and Jamie came third with 22% and Angel Swift and Ty Isherwood placed fourth with 18.3%. Toni and Cach won despite the bookies' odds revealing it was Harry and Shakira in the running to win, just hours ahead of the live final. And fans seemed delighted with the decision as they took to Twitter to wish the couple congratulations. They penned: 'Justice served well done Toni & Cach .. what a gentleman man he is'; 'Congratulations Toni and cach. First American and she won. Iconic moves'; 'a bombshell + a casa boy winning love island - iconic!'; 'Love island didn't disappoint with Cach & Toni winning'; 'Toni was her true authentic self'; 'Amazing winners - hats off to the producers for an elite season of #loveisland'. But it looks like Toni and Cach may be spending even more time together in front of the camera, as ITV are reportedly planning to offer the couple a spin-off show chronicling their long-distance relationship, according to The Sun.

Love Island star Yasmin suffers heartbreak just days after leaving villa
Love Island star Yasmin found love with now-boyfriend Jamie and they finished third on the ITV2 reality show but she has been dealt with heartbreak just days later Love Island's Yasmin Pettet has been dealt with heartbreak just days after leaving the villa. The reality star, 24, made it to the final of the latest series of the ITV2 reality dating show, and finished in third place with now-boyfriend Jamie Rhodes but just days after the programme drew to a close, she has revealed that her cat Miaow Miaow passed away while she was filming. On Wednesday, she wrote on a black background on her Instagram story: "As I've spoken about her on the show I'm sure a lot of you will know I have a cat called miaow miaow who's been by my side for 11 years now. When I was filming Love Island I had a bad gut feeling something was off and when my mum and sister came into the villa I asked them and still felt like something was off." Revealing that her family chose not to tell of her of the tragedy at the time and she was informed by her sister once filming had finished, she added: "Rightfully they didn't tell me because I was still in the villa but after the final I called my sister and she told me that miaow miaow had cancer and died whilst I was away filming Love Island." It comes after Love Island fans fume as third place couple announced as Yas and Jamie. The commercial banking executive assured her fans that she was trying to keep up with her social media as much as possible but also explained to her near-350,000 followers that she needs time to deal with the 'heartbreak' she has had to endure. She added: "I'm trying to be as active as I can on socials, but am taking time for myself to process this heartbreak., RIP to my beautiful baby girl, you were so loved and will always be in my soul." Yasmin's feline friend had been mentioned several times during her time in the Love Island villa, and her fans flooded social media as they sent her their sympathy. Many had been moved to tears by the news, and one admitted: "Yasmin sharing the news that her cat passed away whilst in the villa is actually the most gut-wrenching thing I could imagine and my heart is breaking for her imagine being so excited to see her miaow miaow and her baby isn't there anymore." Clearly shocked at the news after the cat had been a topic of conversation during the Meet the Family segment on the show, one said: "I'm crying cos she straight away asked her mum and sister how Miaow miaow was when they visited the villa and they had to lieeeeeeeee," whilst another viewer said: "Nooo Yasmins cat Miaow Miaow died while she was in the villa and she was talking about how excited she was for Jamie to meet her." Another fan wrote: "Not the icon miaow miaow passing away. It was Yasmin's cat from love island that died while she was in the villa." Despite the sad news, Yasmin's first post upon exiting the villa spoke of her positive experience on the show, and she thanked some of her co-stars throughout her time in the competition. She wrote: "My love island journey has been crazy to say the least but I really wouldn't have been able to do it without my Jamie, Toni and Shakira. I feel so grateful and blessed and can't wait to see what the future holds." When she and her significant other were announced as the third place couple, were not overly impressed that they had finished behind Harry and Shakira before Cach and Toni claimed the £50,000 prize. One user said on X/ Twitter: "Not my winners third," while another person: "Harry sneaking to top 2 over yas and jamie someone hand me a gun." One disappointed fan commented: "I'm lowkey shocked yas and jamie are 3rd." "Yas and Jamie 3rd place???? Can the UK do anything right," one said and one posted: "I wasn't expecting yas and jamie as 3rd actually." Meanwhile, Angel and Ty were announced as the fourth place couple. The two are now 'exclusive', with Ty said: "It's definitely going in the right direction," before adding he was looking forward to the outside world with her.
