Love Island's Arabella and Molly locked in furious row as backstabbing exposed

Love Island All Stars' Molly Smith and Arabella Chi were locked in a war of words after Molly realised her best pal went behind her back to ruin her relationship with Tom Clare.

Molly, 29, who recoupled with the football star, took Arabella to one side after it was revealed that she had informed Tom the public desperately want to see Callum and Molly back together. Molly was furious as she felt robbed of the opportunity to speak to Tom directly and could not understand why Arabella felt it necessary to tell him the news. In a desperate attempt to defend herself, Arabella said: "Tom is not annoyed he just doesn't want to be mugged off."

Molly hit back saying: "The reason I didn't tell him is because its irrelevant information, so why would I tell him?" Fearing that things were going from bad to worse, Arabella said: " I don't want to fall out with you." Georgia Harrison then joined in on the argument and confessed that she had also been part of the conversation with Tom.

But Molly was having none of it and said she wished they had just told Tom to speak to her directly. This comes after Molly was told during three separate conversations that the public were rooting for her and Callum to get back together, despite her being with Tom.

Following the calls, Molly rushed back to tell Arabella but not Tom, fearing that he would be left hurt and insecure. But her attempt to safeguard his feelings backfired as Arabella let slip Molly's conversations. And it was clear for all to see that Tom was upset as he said that if there was even a "one per cent" chance the rumours had substance he would want to know, as he didn't want to be made to look like a fool.

And the fans also claimed that Arabella had an agenda. One fan wrote: "Arabella is trying to ruin molly and Tom so she can win girlie you ain’t even getting in the top 3 #loveisland." Another fan said: "Arabella still waffling.. you had no reason to blab #LoveIslandAllStars #Loveisland."

Shortly after Molly's heated exchange, she pulled Tom to one side to explain the situation. She said: "There's no substance to it whatsoever." She went on to say that the rumours were "irrelevant" and reassured him by saying: "There is absolutely nothing going on. "

Tom replied: "You think the worst. Even if its one per cent I would want to know." Desperately trying to understand how the rumours started, she said she believed the public do not understand how she can get on with her ex boyfriend. Callum and Molly started dating in 2020 and even lived together. But their romance was cut short and the couple split last summer before reuniting on this year's show.
