Love Island's Tanyel says she's 'hurt' by Olivia and plans to confront her

Love Island star Tanyel Revan has said she feels "hurt" by islander Olivia Hawkins ' behaviour, but suggested that she hopes they can discuss the situation together in the future.

Tanyel, 26 - who was dumped from the villa last week - had heard that Olivia, 27, made "comments" about her prior to her departure. She had been told such by Samie Elishi, 22.

Viewers saw Olivia make a comment in response to Tanyel saying she hoped someone new would come into the villa for her, amid then-partner Spencer Wilks, 24, leaving.

Following that remark - which she later said was a joke - Olivia said whilst Tanyel was out the room: "Why was she so worried about new men when Spencer hasn't even left yet?"

Tanyel said whilst on BBC Radio 1Xtra earlier this morning that she feels "hurt" by her situation with Olivia, though she didn't specify that the remark over Spencer had upset her.

Radio host Fee Mak recalled that Tanyel had previously said on companion show Aftersun that she had "heard a few things" about Olivia and wanted to see for herself.

Asked if she'd watched the show back since leaving the villa, Tanyel said: "I haven't watched it completely but my friends have like shown me clips and stuff. I was disappointed."

The former islander continued: "I am actually hurt about it because I really really liked her, especially in the beginning. I felt like she was one of my closest friends in there.

"I actually had a lot of love for her. I still have got love for her. I'm just more like 'why couldn't you say it to my face? Why have you got so much to say? Please tell me why'."

Tanyel however suggested she hopes to speak to Olivia once she has left the villa. She said: "I don't want to go into it too much just because I feel like [...] I owe it to myself and her to tell her like everything I need to say to her face and just hear her out".

Tanyel had been asked about her relationship with Olivia whilst on Aftersun last week. It had been whilst discussing Kai Fagan, 24, having moved on from her with Olivia.

The former Islander said: "I wasn't gonna be selfish, I just thought, 'I'd rather you be happy.' She was like a good friend to me like at the time, so I thought, 'Do your thing'."

It was however noted by host Maya Jama, 28, that she said they were pals "at the time". Tanyel added: "We don't know yet. I need to see it for myself, but I've heard a few things."
