LOVE Island legend Cara De La Hoyde took a huge swipe at Megan Forte Clarke on Aftersun - insisting she made a "huge mistake".
Former winner Cara De La Hoyde, 34, claimed Megan, 24, made a fatal error by dumping Tommy Bradley, 22, insisting she could have won the show if she'd stayed loyal.
Appearing on the ITV2 show with her husband and fellow Islander Nathan Massey, Cara said, 'She stumbled there, cos if she'd have stayed with him, she'd have won. So she's a silly shell.'
Megan was dumped from the villa after coupling up with Casa Amor bombshell Hugo, a move that shocked viewers and saw public opinion quickly turn against her.
Many fans believed her connection with Tommy was one of the strongest in the villa and were disappointed when she chose to end it.
Cara and Nathan were both full of praise for Tommy, calling him a 'lovely boy' and saying he'd be the kind of man they'd want their daughter to bring home.
Nathan added, 'I would love my daughter to bring a man home like Tommy. And he's a Tottenham fan as well.'
Cara jokingly revealed, 'I stalked him the other day,' to which the audience erupted in laughter.
Nathan went one step further, saying, 'Give him the 50 grand - just him, on his own."
Reflecting on the split between the girls in the villa, Cara said she was firmly on the side of the women who stand up for themselves.
She said: 'I'm on the stand up for yourself team. Not the doormat team. These boys are nothing.'
As for who they're backing to win, there was no hesitation.

Cara joked: 'Tommy only. No women. Just Tommy."
The brunette bombshell's departure followed days of drama after she cracked on with Conor while in a couple with Tommy.
Moments before her exit, Megan told an emotional Conor that she would 'wait for him' when he asked.
However, Conor didn't offer to leave the villa alongside Megan, who he had spent the night with in the Hideaway.
Conor told Ben by the Firepit: 'I hand on heart do not think that anyone is going to come through that door that I fancy more than Megan… I look at her like a girlfriend on the outside.'
Megan had a tense final week in the villa.
Fans were left unhappy after she ditched Tommy, who she had been with from the start, and moved on with the rugby lad.
The pair shared secret snogs on the Terrace behind smitten Tommy 's back, infuriating viewers at home.
Fans turned on Megan after she appeared to be gleeful when Conor and Tommy rowed over her.
Speaking previously about her regret over the way she handled the love triangle, she told On Demand Entertainment how she would have done things differently given the chance.
She said: "I'd take a breath."
The TV star continued: "When you're in there, emotions are high. When you hear he said, she said stuff, it just winds you up even more."
