Love Island's Lucy finally reveals truth about 'game plan' voice note she sent plotting to pair up with Tommy - and Maya Jama has a BRUTAL response
The pair - who met during Casa Amor - were booted off the ITV2 show after Shakira Khan, 22, and Ty Isherwood, 23, picked them to go home earlier this month.
Tommy was previously in a couple with Emily Moran, 24, and before that he seemed very smitten with Megan Forte Clarke, 24.
But while Lucy was in the villa, an alleged voice note revealed how she planned to couple up with Tommy as a way of getting to the final.
Presenter Maya Jama, 30, addressed the situation on Sunday's episode of Aftersun.
Lucy said: 'So obviously, like, we've probably all done it... sent voicenotes to friends and obviously I really did trust that friend and with the Tommy situation, I was obviously saying he's a very nice boy and that's why I wanted to get to know him.
'I did say till the end, but it weren't the final, I meant the end... I would like to be with him in the future.
'Someone with really good morals and also before going on the show, my dad did say to me he's the kind of boy he'd like me to bring home because he's very respectful.'
Tommy then chimed in and said: 'You said as well, at the time, we're all just characters on the screen to her.
'I know you were very excited to be going on one of the biggest reality show's in the country... emotions were high and you were speaking to one of your close friends.
'I think it's been blown out of proportion a little bit because I've said things to my friends in group chats, which if got leaked, it might have made me look like a bad person, but it's just to your mate, you never expect everyone to listen to it.'
Maya brutally retorted: 'That's definitely not a good friend. I hope you blocked her after that.'
Apparently speaking to her friend, she can be heard saying: 'I feel like if I'm with Tommy I'll get all the way to the end cause everyone loves him.'
Last week Maya grilled dumped Islander Emily as she broke her silence on the alleged voice note ' exposing Lucy ' and her plan to seduce Tommy
Tommy originally coupled up with Megan (pictured) - but the Irish beauty was voted off the show and he moved on with Emily
Emily said: 'I did see that voice note.'
She continued: 'So I really cared about Tommy and the fact someone might be using him, really like, breaks my heart to be honest because he's such a good person.
'The fact she's gone in, she's broke up something that could have been so good as well, don't get me wrong, we had a long way to go, but it was getting somewhere nice and I think she's broke up that up just to get to the final or stay in there.'
Emily added: 'And I do respect it as a Casa girl, like you've got to get in there, but he's a good person with feelings and I just know when he sees that he's not going to be... like, would you want that?'
Maya then interjected: 'Nobody wants to hear something like that. Well, I mean, who's to know what's gonna happen in the future?
'Maybe if he comes out anytime soon, you can have a little word. Who knows?'
Elsewhere in the Aftersun episode, fans all had the same complaint after Harrison Solomon and Lauren Wood reunited on Sunday's episode of Aftersun after their explosive double exit.
Friday's instalment of the ITV2 show saw Harrison, 22, leave the villa after Lauren Wood, 26, got booted out after bombshell Angel Swift, 26, decided to couple up with her man Ty Isherwood, 23.
Harrison's stint in the villa has seen him crack on with a number of the girls.
He originally coupled up with Toni Laites, 25, but wanted to also get to know Helena Ford, 29, and after deciding to give it a go with Toni, he brought Lauren back to the main villa from Casa Amor.
The footballer then got into a very confusing and complicated love triangle with Toni and Lauren - and this angered fans, with Women's Aid even releasing a statement about his behaviour.
Harrison decided to leave the villa a day after Lauren and they reunited on screen during the latest episode of Aftersun.
Speaking about his decisions in the villa, Harrison told presenter Maya Jama: 'I think maybe when we did bits... Probably took it a little bit too far talking to Toni after that.
'I obviously regret that massively and I apologise to both the girls but, yeah, it wasn't good for me.'
Those watching at home were not impressed with his apology.
One wrote on X: 'Lol im glad no one clapped at Harrison's poor excuse of an apology #LoveIsland.'
'The silence in the studio while Harrison is talking is awkward #loveisland.'
'Oh Indiyah does not believe a word Harrison says.'
'Harrison was left off far too lightly there kmt poor interview, and his face at the end said it all.. he wants Toni back now �� #LoveIsland.'
Many rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share how unimpressed they were with Harrison's apology
'Maya didn't grill Harrison enough for me kmt #loveisland.'
It comes after Harrison broke his silence on his love triangle with Lauren Wood and Toni Laites after abruptly quitting the villa.
Speaking for the first time after his exit, Harrison reflected on the love triangle drama, which saw Toni left devastated after she learned he had slept with Lauren twice.
'I was relatively new to the Villa so I wanted to explore connections and I came to the conclusion that Toni was the better suit for me.
'Then when I went to Casa there was an instant spark and connection with Lauren, I knew from day one there was something special there.
'When I came back from Casa something in the back of my mind was still thinking about Toni.
'If I had left with Lauren when Shakira had the choice to send me home, I think I would've always regretted not giving me and Toni one final go as we left on good terms before Casa.
'That's the reason I gave a little speech before the recoupling on the Terrace. As soon as I did that, I felt terrible towards Lauren.
'For two days, I tried to go tunnel vision with Toni but there was something holding me back.'
Harrison took to Instagram on Sunday to share a message with fans.
He said: 'Back on home turf and carrying every lesson with me. What a whirlwind, confusing, raw, beautiful in parts, and deeply humbling.
'I entered with the intention not to hurt anyone.
'Truthfully, although I didn't manage that, I leave with a heart more open, and a soul willing to learn.
'Life isn't always easy, it's felt, it's flawed, it's full of growth.

Love Island's Lauren Wood claps back at Women's Aid's statement on Harrison Solomon's behaviour as she insists 'it was blown out of proportion'
Love Island's Lauren Wood has clapped back at Women's Aid after the charity accused her partner Harrison Solomon of 'misogyny' and 'sexism' on the show. Harrison, 22, quit the Majorca villa last week after becoming embroiled in a love triangle with Islanders Toni Laites, 24, and Lauren, 26, which saw the footballer go back and forth between the two women, causing weeks of upset and conflict. His treatment of the pair was condemned by viewers but much to his dismay, Women's Aid also criticised his actions by releasing a damning statement claiming his behaviour 'reinforces a culture that excuses and trivialises violence against women and girls.' But dog walker Lauren has declared the charity's statement was 'blown way out of proportion' as she insisted Harrison 'just made a mistake'. She told Cosmopolitan: 'Erm obviously, I think it was blown out of proportion like he's made a mistake but everyone makes mistakes. 'Like, he's gone about it the wrong way, he knows he has done wrong. I think it was just the timing of everything. 'It was literally just the timing of it but like he said, he isn't a bad person and everyone in the villa knows that.' MailOnline has contacted Women's Aid for comment. The Derby-born Islander had a relationship with US waitress Toni before embarking on a new romance with Lauren after meeting her in rival villa Casa Amor, with the couple becoming the first to have sex on the ITV2 show this series. But Harrison then sparked outrage by convincing Toni, who was unaware he had slept with Lauren, to rekindle, leaving the distraught influencer in floods of tears. Shortly after their bedroom antics were exposed, Lauren was dumped from the villa and followed out the door by Harrison, who was quickly informed of Women's Aid's criticism which left him dumbstruck. Fans on X shared their concern for Lauren's disagreement with Women's Aid and wrote: 'She forgive Harrison everything. Let's c once they have split up', 'setting women back omg', 'Standing up for someone is one thing, but brushing off a real issue as 'just a mistake' can do more harm than good', 'To think they were trying to support her as well. They literally made that statement to support her', 'Mind you Women's Aid were backing HER and were fuming about how she was treated and she's saying this? This girl has set women back 1000 years'. Fans on X shared their concern for Lauren's disagreement with Women's Aid and wrote: 'She forgive Harrison everything. Let's c once they have split up' Meanwhile, Harrison revealed what he really thought on the Women's Aid statement in an exclusive interview with MailOnline. He insisted the charity was wrong to call him out and claims the nature of the statement upset his family. He said: 'I have seen the backlash and it's hard to digest. I would disagree with a lot of it in terms of my respect for women, I do respect women. 'The worst has been from Women's Aid. I know myself and the girls on the show too, Toni said she knows I'm not a bad person, just went about situations in the wrong way, but the Women's Aid statement wasn't nice... it's not nice coming out of the villa to my mum upset by that so I would say that's been the hardest.' He added: 'To the women I have hurt, I am obviously sorry. I got it wrong and the back and forth between the two connections caused more harm than I ever intended. 'It wasn't ever an ego thing. I am not proud of how I handled things and I'm not going to make excuses. 'I just want to own it. If people can give me the space to grow from it, I will do everything I can to be better and that's the only thing I can do. 'There is no handbook for how to be on a show like Love Island. It's instincts and intentions. I got some of it right, but I know I got a lot of it wrong, and I know that now.' Lauren was regularly left in tears after feeling humiliated by Harrison and his actions in the Love Island villa Harrison said the statement issued by Women's Aid, which commented on women being 'lied to, slut-shamed, and laughed at behind their backs' was particularly detrimental given the close relationship he shares with his mother and younger sister. Harrison says leaving Love Island was a decision he made himself, telling MailOnline: 'I have seen a lot of this online and I feel like I am my own man and I'm going to make my own choices. 'I wouldn't have left one of the biggest TV shows in the UK if I didn't see a future with Lauren. It was a very emotional conversation because she was just dumped, she was acting on emotion, she just wanted to get across to me how much she was into me and wanted to give me a second chance. 'I understand where people are coming from, but Lauren found a proper connection, of course she wanted me to leave with her. Lauren didn't make the decision for me though I followed my heart.' American contestant Toni believed she had found The One in Harrison, given he was Miami based and in her age range, but after realising she deserved better than to be an option, she told him: 'You treated me like s*** repeatedly and I tried to walk away multiple times. Please don't treat Lauren this way.' NAME: Dejon Noel Williams AGE: 26 FROM: London OCCUPATION: Semi-pro footballer and personal trainer WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

Love Island fans fume at show bosses for giving Shakira the 'villain edit' during the Grafties - after 'convincing' her to stay following emotional breakdown
Love Island fans have hit out at show bosses during Thursday's episode after they were left unimpressed by how Shakira Khan was given the 'villain edit'. Prior to the episode airing, It was reported that the 22-year-old threatened to quit the ITV2 dating show over the situation with Harry. A source told The Sun: 'She went to the beach hut and asked to leave the villa. 'The duty of care team were able to help her through her emotions and she decided to stay.' In the latest episode of the ITV show, the infamous Grafties returned - where contestants are shown clips on a big screen that either revive past drama or highlight hilarious moments that most of the villa hadn't seen before. The nominees for the Best Double Act award were Dejon and Helena, Toni and Shakira, and Helena and Meg. During the clips, Toni and Shakira were seen talking negatively about Meg, following movie night. After watching the gossip on the big screen, Meg said she felt that Shakira and Toni were 'fake to her face,' prompting Toni to fire back: 'So are you. You act like you never say a bad thing about anyone.' Next came Helena and Meg's clip, which, in contrast, highlighted their blossoming friendship in the villa. Toni and Shakira went on to win the award, with Shakira saying: 'We said what we said, it was after Movie Night. 'I don't know why it's so surprising, we had a scrap that night.' Fans are now calling out show bosses for giving Shakira the 'villain edit' during the game. They raged on X: 'If they hurt Shakira anymore I'm literally going to stay for the credits, note down each producers name and HUNT THEM DOWN,' 'The producers convincing Shakira to stay in the villa so she could get attacked at the grafties is just evil #LoveIsland,' 'The fact we've seen Shakira be so sad, open & vulnerable recently. And now the producers are gonna paint her out to be bad with the Grafties, and make her feel even worse :(( i don't wanna watch,' 'Look at the clip they used for Meg and Helena vs the one they used for Shakira and Toni, and tell me again with a straight face that there isn't a clear agenda,' 'Why are the producers giving Shakira and Toni this bad edit!' 'Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Shakira ends up leaving after the Grafties give her a bad edit. Her mental health is really suffering,' MailOnline has contacted ITV bosses for comment. It comes after there was a wave of concern for Shakira's mental health, who fans said already appears 'emotionally drained' on the programme. Viewers penned on X: 'funny how love island preaches about mental health and how the public should go easy on the islanders only to THEMSELVES use the most amount of vids of shakira for the grafties to push the mean girl narrative and sent back in megan one of the buIIies', 'this princess deserved so much better. i hope she walks for her own mental health. shakira you are loved worldwide and are better than love island', 'Shakira is emotionally drained and not okay Love Island uk is responsible for her mental health the contestants the producers the therapists everyone', 'Really not keen on the production team for the constant shots thrown at shakira. We only see one hour of the whole day and it's clear she's down and not feeling herself. Where's the mental health team love island are so vocal about? #LoveIslandUK'. However others were quick to defend Shakira's decision, with tweets including: 'Shakira is so real that she's willing to leave the villa without a man or winning instead of faking it with Conor till the end, if anything we can be proud of her for staying true to herself but damn Harry?!? ''I do like him, I just don't like him enough'', you know what Shakira that's real;' ''I just wanna be single forever'' Shakira this is so real;' 'Well you can't say Shakira is a game-player! She could have faked it with Ty and Conor to get to the final and potentially win but looks like she dgaf about winning or getting to the final;' Shakira has always been so honest and upfront in her couples., she's a genuine sensitive girl who won't fake s**t for the sake of it. Love her so much;' One thing about Shakira she'll follow her heart no matter if she's favourite couple or not at the bottom;' 'Wait now I'm kinda glad Meg is back because it softens the blow and makes Shakira feel better;' MailOnline has contacted Love Island for comment. In recent days, Shakira has been in floods of tears and has persistently said she 'can't wait to leave the villa' following a rocky start to her journey with Harry Cooksley. During the episode Shakira shut down her short-lived romance with Conor Phillips after struggling to get over her feelings for Harry. Last week, Shakira broke down in tears after a heated row with Conor after Harrison said during the Couple Of Sorts game that she had deeper feelings for Harry - who she was paired with earlier in the series. She told Conor: 'It's been twisted and you've wanted to believe the boys straight away. It's ego and pride. Wake up, Conor. 'They're literally the biggest game-players here. When have I ever lied to you? Their argument leaves Shakira feeling upset and she goes to Toni and Yasmin for comfort. Upset with the rugby lad, she said: 'I don't want to be surrounded by them all the time.

Love Island rivals finally address bitter villa feud in explosive Grafties as fans slam show over ‘rigged' edit
The six main girls have been locked in a feud since the start of the series Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island's rivals have finally addressed the group's bitter divide during an explosive Grafties ceremony. This year's edition of the ITV2 dating show has seen a long-running divide between the girls in the villa. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 7 The bitter Love Island divide has finally been addressed Credit: Eroteme 7 Toni, Shakira, Meg, Helena, Megan and Yasmin clashed over their divide Credit: Eroteme 7 Shakira made her feelings clear Credit: Eroteme For the most part it has mostly consisted of close pals Toni, Shakira and Yasmin against Meg, Helena and Megan. Whilst the feud has been clear to see and has been hinted at many times in the villa, it was only during tonight's Grafties that all six girls were forced to confront the issues head on. It came as Toni and Shakira collected the award for Best Double Act but fans were quick to slam this decision by insisting it was a rigged edit in order to portray the two girls in a negative light ahead of the series finale in just over a week's time. In the scenes, the group saw a video of Toni and Shakira expressing their disdain for Meg after a number of clashes with the star. They also took issue with Helena and for her close bond with Meg. In response, Meg appeared defensive and annoyed as she swiped at Toni and Shakira: "You two are crazy for saying all that about me!" Sharkia then replied: "How? We had an argument that night?" Meg then told the pair that they were "fake" to her to which the girls insisted that "was the point". Toni said: "Meg, so are you. You act like you never say a bad word about anyone and then all we do is walk down the f***ing thing and you are like, 'look at them walking down the runway'." As Meg pleaded that she was the same to the pair in front of their face, Toni insisted she was not as the divide was soon adressed. 'What's going on-' say confused Love Island fans confused as Conor and Shakira break down in tears after split Yasmin quickly jumped in to insist there had been a "divide" from the start as many of the Islanders appeared to nod in agreement. Toni stated that the divide came from Meg, Helena and Dejon not being "warm and welcoming" and for going off on their own and leaving others out of their conversations - namely her, Shakira and Yasmin. As the Islanders bickered over the divide for the first time, unhappy fans grumbled at show bosses by claiming the episode was "rigged" to portray Shakira and Toni negatively despite them being the ones to appear to have been isolated by other members of the group, whilst Meg and Helena appeared to be shown in a much more positive light. Writing on X following the airing of the scenes, one fan said: "Nah these f***ing producers have p***ed me off.... why are they not showing all the f***ing s*** muggy Meg and hideaway Helena have said. "Like f*** off. These last few episodes have been rigged in favour of muggy Meg." Another added: "Producer at it again making meg and Helena look like they don't chat s*** about people I swear this show is so rigged." A third went on to say: "This is actually rigged how have they made MEG look like a saint." Someone else said: "This show is rigged. I've wasted weeks for this?"
