A NEW Love Island feud has been revealed after one of the Islanders slammed her co-stars for "using her name for attention".

The former ITV2 dating show star also hit out to blame the series finalists for her being dumped from the villa.

Olivia Hawkins, who rose to fame on the most recent series of Love Island, sat down with former show finalist Toby Aromolaran to dish out the tea behind-the-scenes.

The TV star – who was dubbed the "most controversial Islander" by Toby, 24 – slammed her co-stars for using her name.

Olivia, 27, who has been struggling with life after the show, blamed her co-stars Tanya Manhenga and Shaq Muhammad for her dumping.

The star faced her fair share of dramas in the villa, including bitter feuds with a number of her co-stars, who have since branded her "attention seeking" and said "no one likes her".

Opening up about the other Islanders rallying against her both in and out of the villa, she admitted she thought the others .

She told the Fancy A Chat? podcast: "People in the villa coming out were almost using my name because they knew it was going to get them attention.

"It was already a big claim anyway, but it's like, I had this villain character and it felt like some of them were jumping on the bandwagon when really nothing happened."

Olivia went on to respond to her feud with Tanyel Revan, who was left single after the star coupled up with her beau Kai Fagan.

"I think Tanyel just felt like myself. Shaq and Tanya were the whole reason for her being dumped," Olivia added.

It comes after Olivia opened up about her death threat hell after her stint in the villa – admitting it's been "really difficult".

She narrowly missed out on a place in the final alongside her beau Maxwell Samuda when they were both dumped from the Love Island villa on day 45.

But since being back in the UK the ring girl has received some awful messages online from viewers who watched the show.

Unfortunately, due to the massive shake-up of show rules, the actress saw a lot of them for herself.

Olivia said: "It's hard, and because of the social media change, the trollinghadn't been filtered out, so I was the one having to see it all by myself when I left the villa, which was really difficult."

Back in December it was revealed that the family and friends of the Islanders were banned from posting on their social media accounts during the show and their accounts were dormant.

Olivia also opened up about what she has found the hardest thing to deal with.
