LOVE Island bombshell Nathalia has revealed secret tensions in the villa between herself and Paige.
The Brazilian born beauty – who tried to make her mark just ten days before the final – claims the Welsh paramedic made a series of ‘Mean Girls’ comments behind her back.
In an explosive interview following her exit, Nathalia recalls being made to feel like she was “back at high school”, just days after another Islander made similar claims about Paige.
Speaking on Reality with Will Njobvu, she explained: “As soon as we walked in the energy was mad, there was a lot of tension in the changing rooms, especially the first night and second night.
“Thankfully on the last night it was a lot nicer.
“It was proper high school vibes, you know saying little things, giving the eye.

“Girls can be very mean, I love boy, boys are not like that. I felt like I was in high school again, proper mean girl vibes.”
While she managed to resolve any issues with the other Islanders, there was one person she claims she still didn’t to bond with – Paige.
“In the end I managed to speak to a few of the girls and have a good thing going, but I am not going to lie, you can feel the tension and especially some little comments,” she continued.
“When I was leaving, obviously by the end of it I was trying to be friendly with everyone, with Paige she just made a comment when I was leaving that is never going to go out of my head.

“She was putting stuff in my suitcase and she got an outfit out and lifted it and was like ‘oh that is so cute’ and then she looked at me and said ‘such a shame you didn’t get to wear it’, in a way that was quite mean
“She seemed like a lovely girl, don’t get me wrong but I felt like she disliked me.”
Nathalia, who had her heart set on Davide in the villa, went on to detail more of her relationship with Paige.
She said: “From my experience with Paige it was confusing because it was like ‘oh Nathalia have you worn this bikini like this before’, so I was like ‘oh she likes me, she’s giving me fashion tips, and then mean girl comments behind my back.
“Or ‘Oh your pancakes are really nice, can I have some?’ and then looking and laughing behind my back, saying I need to go Specsavers.”
Coco Lodge also recalled a similar incident with Paige during her time in the villa – questioning if she had an issue with her also.
