Love Island 2021 star Salma Naran has blasted Liam Reardon for ‘leading Lillie Haynes on’.
Fans were left angry after Liam got cosy with Lillie while he was away in Casa Amor, sharing a bed with her and kissing her outside of challenges while Millie Court remained loyal.
Lillie then exposed Liam as a cheat after he went back to Millie – and now Salma has hit out at Liam for not staying with Lillie.
‘Out of all the recouplings, Liam not choosing Lillie shocked me the most because of their connection,’ the 20-year-old model said.
‘Everything seemed perfect and then literally at the last minute he was like, “I’m going to stick with Millie”, and everyone was like, “What?” I’m glad that Lillie said something and didn’t leave Millie thinking everything’s fine.’
Salma even said that Lillie and Liam could have won the series had they stayed together.

‘I genuinely felt Lillie and Liam could win.’
It comes after Lillie spoke out about her connection with Liam Reardon in Casa Amor, revealing they were ‘like a couple’ despite him being in a strong pair with Millie.
While he returned back to the villa single, Millie’s delight was cut short when the single Casa Amor girls were invited back and Lillie revealed everything.

Speaking out after her exit, the 22-year-old said: ‘When I found out Liam hadn’t chosen me, I felt misled. He’d been giving me what I wanted to hear and I was convinced he was the one.
‘He made me feel as if I had a really strong chance of going back to the villa with him. He was very hands-on — we were like a couple in there.’

She added to The Sun on Sunday of telling Millie what went on: ‘I didn’t do it to cause drama or be petty, but I wanted her to know to be a bit wary of him. I had nothing to lose and nothing to gain at that point.’
Since the brutal scenes aired, Lillie’s family have pleaded with viewers not to spread hate.
Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2.
