Malisha, meanwhile, hit back and told Meg - who is coupled up with fitness coach Dejon - to "grow up". The bombshell called her "an idiot" and pointed out that Meg had only known Dejon for a matter of days. But despite the majority of the population siding with Malisha, with some fans even threatening to complain to Ofcom about Meg's reaction, Laura is backing the other horse. Commenting on Love Island's official Instagram account, 36-year-old Laura wrote: "#TeamMegs." Slamming mum-of-one Laura, one viewer of the ITV2 show replied: "No sis sorry check ur girl." Another added: "Wrong team darling." A third wrote: "I can't believe you." And someone else remarked: "That says a lot about you." But another Love Island fan told they "100 per cent" agreed with her. Love Island fans slam Meg for 'trying to be iconic' as she furiously confronts rival and villa descends into chaos Meg and Malisha's row has been escalating over the past few days. It began when Malisha entered the villa on Friday night and took Dejon on a date - all under the watchful eyes of Meg. She and the rest of the Love Island OG girls were watching on a big screen in the villa garden. At the time, Meg even branded Malisha a "b****", despite not having met her in person yet. A feud then exploded between the girls on Sunday night after Malisha had returned to the villa with Dejon and asked if he'd like to chat in The Hideaway. The row left Malisha in tears and, as a result, has caused a divide in the villa. Alima Gagigo was quick to comfort her before confronting Meg and the other girls about their treatment of Malisha. Storming outside, she urged them all to be kind. Shakira Khan and Toni Laites have also thrown their support behind the newbie, insisting that Malisha's actions were not "disrespectful".

Meghan teases ‘delicious surprises' as she restocks lifestyle brand
The Duchess of Sussex has promised some 'delicious surprises' as she announced a restock of items from her lifestyle brand after some products sold out within an hour. Meghan said the April launch of her As Ever products, including jam and herbal tea, had been 'absolutely extraordinary' and teased buyers they would only have to wait a few days for more items. In an Instagram post, the California-based duchess wrote: 'Oh yes, honey… sweet things await. Mark your calendars for June 20 at 8 a.m. PT – we're bringing back your favorites, plus some delicious surprises you won't want to miss!' In a newsletter, she also wrote: 'First off, a sincere thank you for making the debut of As Ever absolutely extraordinary. 'We had a feeling there would be excitement, but to see everything sell out in less than an hour was an amazing surprise. 'We are pleased to share that on June 20th, we're going live with the products you love – plus, some new delicious surprises.' Earlier this month Meghan said she had decided to 'just pause' restocking her brand, saying she wanted to wait until it is 'completely stable and we have everything we need'. She also spoke of the difficulties of building her firm and 'how many tears' she has shed behind the scenes on a bonus episode of her podcast featuring Beyonce's mother Tina Knowles. Meghan had suggested the 'scarcity mentality at the beginning might be a hook for people', comparing it to 'a sneaker drop'. But she feared it might be 'annoying' for customers, adding: 'I don't want you to eat that jam once every six months. I want that to be on your shelf all the time.' Meghan said: 'So for me at the moment, with As Ever, it was great. We planned for a year we get and then everything sells out in 45 minutes. 'Yes, amazing, great news. Then what do you do? And then you say 'Ok, we planned as best as we could. Are we going to replenish and sell out again in an hour? Or is that annoying as a customer? 'I'm looking at it saying 'Just pause. That happened. Let's wait until we are completely stable and we have everything we need'.' She added how people 'see all the flashy stuff and they see the product. But that end game… those behind the scenes moments, how many tears I've shed'.

Watch the moment Love Island star Shakira's furious mum takes savage swipe at Harry after recoupling
The mum said she 'couldn't sleep' watching her daughter on the show NO LOVE LOST Watch the moment Love Island star Shakira's furious mum takes savage swipe at Harry after recoupling Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island star Shakira's mum has made her feelings well and truly known about fellow islander Harry. As the first week in the villa wound down, Maya Jama returned for spin-off show Aftersun, where she grilled Shakira's mum and sister about what she's been up to in the villa. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 6 Shakira's mum and sister shared their brutal thoughts on the men pursuing her Credit: ITV 6 Shakira's mum said she 'couldn't sleep' while she was with Harry Credit: Eroteme 6 The mum said she feels better with her daughter being with Ben Credit: ITV The pair shared their pride in Shakira so far – and noted the amount of attention she had been getting from the men on the show as she "got grafting" to bag herself a man. Both didn't think too highly about her current match, Ben, who she coupled up with in the latest ceremony, but her mum couldn't hide her dislike of Harry – who was seen jumping out of bed with Shakira for a night in the Hideaway with air hostess Helena. While some fans believed he did it in order to get one up on Shakira, who had shared a snog with Blu earlier that night in the Hideaway before confessing, her mum was not pleased with Harry's antics. So when Maya asked if she thought Harry and Shakira were a good match, her mum didn't hesitate to say no. "Absolutely not," she declared. "I didn't sleep. I, actually, when she ended up back with Ben, that was the best night's sleep I've had in a few days. I prefer him." But Shakira's sister wasn't so convinced about Ben, having previously told Maya: "I'm not a fan, but I feel like they do match each other's break a bit. "I feel like she likes the chase, and because he was, like, so weird with her at the beginning, she kind of liked it and it roped her in a bit." However, her mum was more warm towards Ben, saying: "There must be potential there for it to be that interested." At the third recoupling, Helena opted to couple up with Harry, while Shakira chose Ben. In a brutal twist, Blu and Shea were both left single – and had to choose between themselves who should leave. Shakira and Harry as they can't keep their hands off each other on Love Island When they refused to do so, they then turned to the group, and Blu ended up leaving. However, it seems it may be a decision the gang live to regret, with Shea getting into a heated argument on Monday night's show with Tommy.
