Love Island star Olivia Hawkins was in tears as she revealed the truth over the “leaked messages” saga on the latest All Stars series.

As Olivia returned to the South African villa to help with an eviction, she caused chaos by claiming Grace Jackson may not have had true intentions on the show. In the night before this year’s final, Olivia claimed to have read texts from Grace which said she was willing to do anything to win this time around.

Grace vehemently denied that was the case and moved quickly to shut down the accusations as she stood alongside partner Luca Bish. The blonde star hit back: “That is absolutely not true. I do not care about winning the show,” before Olivia told her: “I’ve seen the screenshots.”

Grace encouraged her to send the apparent “receipts,” saying: “I would love to see them” saying they must have been “forged” by someone. “I’ve said what I said. You know me, I’m very straight talking,” Olivia reiterated. “I’m just straight to the point. But I honestly wish them the best.”

Now, with the saga still not put to bad, Olivia has moved to clear up the situation. Speaking to SnatchedByWill podcast, she revealed that the situation has continued to take its toll on her. As she became emotional, she tried to defend her actions. Tearful, she explained how producers had encouraged her to share what she had looked at.

The interview, which was partly-shared on Instagram, saw Olivia say: “I said this piece of information to producers, and they wanted me to, you know, say what I’ve seen. What I will say is, do people really think I would go on national television and lie about something so serious as that?”

Last month, Kaz Crossley also weighed in on the text scandal. Shortly after the final, Kaz told her followers: “I just want to say I haven’t seen these messages, and I had no involvement in this situation. So yeah, you lot need to stop asking me. Because boy I have no idea because that was crazy.”
