Casa Amor star sparks fakery row as she jets abroad with footballer she was seeing BEFORE Love Island
A CASA Amor star has sparked a new fakery row after jetting off on holiday with a footballer she was seeing before Love Island. Yaz Broom's trip comes just days after she left the show, after failing to find a connection in Casa Amor. 5 5 The former X Factor star, 26, grew close to hunky Giorgio Russo but things didn't turn romantic between them and both she and Giorgio were dumped when he returned to the main villa without her. Now, Yaz has jetted off to Rome with a boy she was seeing prior to appearing on the show. His name is Joe Nuttall, 28, and he's an ex footballer for the club Altrincham. A source told The Sun: 'Yaz and Joe were seeing each other before the villa and they've now rekindled their romance after she left. 'She'd take him to concerts with her before appearing on Love Island, and now they appear to have jetted off to Italy together. 'He posted a photo dump of them together in the same place but it's now been deleted.' The Sun has approached Yaz's rep for comment. Both Yaz and Joe have been posting photos from abroad, but they don't appear together in any of them. In one TikTok shared by the Casa Amor beauty, Yaz can be seen on a boat on a river, and she pens: 'Rome is always a good idea.' Love Island's Yaz reveals her X Factor past While appearing on Love Island, Yaz was aksed by Gio why the X Factor girlband she was in split up. Gio, 30, asked why the group went their separate ways, and Yaz said: 'Lockdown. We just couldn't perform anything.' And fans were quick to comment on the revelation, with one writing: 'At least we finally have the answer why you split lol.' The group responded: 'Woops. Look, we haven't split, we're on hiatus!!' Another fan begged for 'one more tour', to which the group teased: 'For old time's sake?' After successfully making it through to The X Factor live shows in 2016, Four Of Diamonds pushed on until week five of the competition before being eliminated. The girls were sent home following a sing off with Gifty Louise, when only their mentor Louis Walsh voted to save them. 5

Love Island's Gio reveals why England footballer sibling was NEVER mentioned in the villa
FORMER Love Island star Giorgio Russo has opened up about Lioness sister Alessia - and how she wasn't featured during the show. In an exclusive conversation with talkSPORT, the ex islander - who is the brother of England Women 's and Arsenal forward Alessia Russo - revealed how his sibling was omitted from the ITV2 edit. 6 6 The account manager from Maidstone explained that it wasn't down to him or his fellow islanders. Host Adrian Durham quizzed: "You didn't say to anybody in the villa that your sister plays for England... you dropped a few hints but you didn't say clearly, 'Oh my sister's at the Women's Euros 2025 for England'." Half Italian Gio answered: "So do you know what? It's funny that it wasn't [shown]. "I did and there was a lot of conversation, so I never actually brought it up. "Someone figured it from my last name on day one - Tommy and Connor - but it never got shown on television which I mean is not too bad it was. "There was times where we spoke about women's football quite a lot in the downtime and there was times where we spoke about all football in general. "All the boys in there, we all had a real camaraderie about being knowledgeable about football and we'd play football games and what have you. "But the topic of women's football and Alessia definitely came up a few times." Alessia is the current holder of the FWA Women's Footballer of the Year award. Before entering the villa, Gio revealed what his Champions League-winning sister thought about him signing up for Love Island. See Love Island bombshell's amazing transformation before villa Giorgio shared: "She's really excited, she watches every year and reckons I can do well, so she's excited to see how I get on." He said: "My sister plays pro football, so being interested in sport — they don't have to know football or understand it, but if they can show some sort of interest — because it is such a prominent thing in our family. "It would be hard if they hated it. Other green flags are having a nice family — I'm sick of being the seventh wheel in my own family!" Following his sister's Champion's League success with Arsenal, Gio posted: "Turns out being related to a Champions League winner doesn't make me any better at football… but it does make me insanely proud. "Congratulations @alessia, you make me prouder and prouder to be your big brother everyday." The bombshell was part of one of the most savage Casa Amor recouplings the show's seen in years. Gio had been given the greenlight to bring back someone new from his friendship partner Billykiss, but the Italian decided to return alone. The Maidstone lad is big into his fitness just like his Lioness sister. On his social media he shares many fitness related posts with his followers, which include running, surfing and working out. England have since won a dramatic penalty shoot-out against Sweden to reach the semi-finals of Women's Euro 2025. Player of the Match Goalkeeper Hannah Hampton heroically pulled England through with a TAMPON in her nose. They came back from losing 2-0 with 11 minutes left of normal time - and are set to face Italy next. 6 6 6 6

Maya Jama reveals her scathing swipes at Love Islanders that ITV bosses CUT from show - after leaving fans open-mouthed with brutal takedown
Maya Jama has revealed scathing remarks like the ones she delivered in the Love Island villa last week are often cut by show bosses. The brunette host, 30, left fans stunned as she delivered a brutal putdown when it all kicked off on Thursday as Emily Moran and Giorgio Russo were dumped from the villa after being left single during Casa Amor. It came after viewers saw an argument unfold around the firepit, with the host blasting Harry and Helena for laughing about his behaviour during their time together. Maya's no-nonsense responses to the islanders went down a hit with viewers, who branded her the 'best' host for the show. However, during last night's Love Island Aftersun, she revealed not all her remarks are included in the final cut of the episode. She made the confession as panelist Sam Thompson praised her for speaking up at the firepit. He said: 'You smashed it with Ben by the way, yeah, you nailed that.' She then replied: 'Thank you, but you do have to remember we film for a long time, I do always speak, it just doesn't always get involved.' Keen to move on with the chat, Maya added: 'But there you got, my two pence.' Harry and Helena had been reunited during Wednesday's episode when he surprisingly returned from Casa single, despite exploring a connection with bombshell Rheo Parnell. Rheo spilled the tea during the recoupling, letting the islanders know there were 'kisses in bed, cuddles and all sorts' between her and Harry. Andrada Pop then pointed out that Harry admitted he 'didn't miss' his couple during Casa, which prompted a rather unbothered response from the semi-professional footballer and Helena, who burst into laughter. Maya then hit-back at their reaction, saying: 'I don't know, I probably wouldn't find it that funny if I was in a couple with someone like that.' Moments later the focus shifted to American Toni Laites and Harrison Solomon, who chose to go their separate ways during the recoupling. Sam Thompson brought the moment up, praising as he said: 'You smashed it with Ben by the way, yeah, you nailed that' Maya replied: 'Thank you, but you do have to remember we film for a long time, I do always speak, it just doesn't always get involved' Emily Moran and Giorgio Russo were dumped from the villa after being left single during the show's fan-favourite Casa Amor week After being asked her thoughts on the situation, Toni admitted that she wasn't surprised that Harrison - who has form of doing similar in the villa - returned with a new girl. It prompted a strange reaction from Ben, who quipped: 'I've just got to give it Harrison, man. What Lauren's been able to give him in three days, you (Toni) haven't been able to in two, three weeks.' The presenter once again hit-back, telling Ben his comment was 'unnecessary'. After the scenes aired, fans flocked to X to share their reactions to Maya's comments, as one said: 'Maya is actually the best host. She's called out both Harry AND Ben during this recoupling. We have to stan.' A second chimed in: 'Imagine THE Maya Jama telling you you shouldn't find it funny... Helena has to be the most embarrassing love island contestant of all time.' 'Maya Jama WINNER of love island uk congratulations congratulations,' said a third fan.
