Love Island star Zara Lackenby Brown’s family have assured concerned fans that she can handle herself after fans believed she was ‘targeted’ during a brutal game of dares.

In Friday’s installment the islanders decided to pass the time with a light-hearted game, however, the cliffhanger saw the 25-year-old’s love match Tom Clare revealing that Zara was his ideal body type, and her rival Olivia Hawkins had the best face.

Elsewhere during the savage challenge, Australian newcomer Aaron Waters said that Zara was the islander most likely to ‘talk behind your back.’

Viewers immediately shared their discomfort over Friday’s game on social media and claimed the star was being ‘picked on.’

Following Friday’s edition, Zara’s brother Alex said: ‘She is a very strong woman who knows her own mind – she can handle the drama.’

While Zara’s mother Denise stressed to The Mirror that the show is ‘highly edited’ and her daughter is free to leave whenever she wants.

Zara and Olivia’s feud has been dominating headlines in recent days after Zara, brutally branded Olivia, 27, as the ‘most two-faced’ islander in a brutal game before going on to couple up with her man, Tom.

And their drama isn’t showing any sign of slowing down anytime soon, as an explosive preview for Sunday night’s episode shows Zara airing her frustrations following the dares game.

Fans of the show have been confused about Olivia and Zara’s beef given their supposed past and have gone as far as accusing them of playing up to the cameras.

Although Love Island stars Zara and Olivia appeared to meet for the first time just a few days ago when Zara entered the villa as a bombshell, fans have done a whole lot of digging and it seems their friendship actually dates back to 2020.

Underneath a model shot photo captioned ‘archives’, Olivia wrote: ‘Fave photo of you’, along with a heart-eye emoji.

Zara responded to the comment too and replied: ‘@livhawkinss my babes.’

Love Island returns tonight at 9pm on ITV2.
