Love Island's Zara finally lifts lid on Usain Bolt kiss amid age gap drama

Love Island star Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown has finally revealed all about her rumoured kiss with Usain Bolt.

Usain Bolt's name may be synonymous with gold medals, speed and success but the Jamaican sprinter found himself in hot water after bombshell claims made on Love Island by Zara.

As the stars of the ITV2 dating show sat around the fire pit to play a game of ‘Never Have I Ever’ last month, Bolt found his name dropped in the most unlikely of places.

Bombshell Zara, 25, dropped the athlete’s name into the game when she asked her fellow Islanders to drink if they’d been with any famous faces.

The model and property developer, who said she’d modelled and danced in music videos for Hardy Caprio, Headie One, Aitch, Tione Wayne 'and more' before entering the villa, quizzed her fellow islanders.

Zara pressed: “Never have I ever got with or dated a celebrity."

She was then seen drinking to her own question as the islanders quizzed her on who she had locked lips with before she confessed: "I got with an athlete before, a famous athlete, very famous. I kissed Usain Bolt."

Speaking to BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Fee Mak, the Love Island bombshell revealed exclusive new details about the kiss she claims to have shared with the eight-time Olympic Gold medallist.

Zara, who was recently dumped from the island, has since been questioned by Love Island fans given that Usain Bolt has been with his long-term partner for nearly eight years.

“We were heading out the door and I got stopped by a security guard and he was like ‘you’ve been requested in VIP’. And I was like ‘VIP by who?’. Then they literally announced as he said it ‘Usain Bolt is in the building!’ I was like ‘what?!’, I thought it was so random," she explained.

“So he was like ‘Yeah Usain Bolt wants you, he saw you in the crowd and would like you in VIP’. So I was like cool so me and my friend took our way up there. He was just in the DJ booth, we were literally just having fun, there was drinks, it was quite chilled, friendly vibes. And then he pulled me up onto the sofa”.

“He was like ‘I think you’re gorgeous’ and yeah, we just had a little kiss and that’s it”.

Zara also told Fee that Usain asked her if she wanted to have an ‘after party’ but she said 'absolutely not'.
