ONE of the axed stars of Love Island has revealed the truth behind the alleged ‘divide’ in villa amid the ‘mean girls’ row.
Viewers of the long-running ITV2 dating competition have suggested that there is a split amongst the girls.
Many fans of Love Island have taken to social media as they claimed there may have been a clique within the Majorca villa.
On a thread titled 'The Mean Girls trio - Meg, Megan and Helena' on social media fan forum site Reddit, fans fumed that Meg, Megan and Helena were not being so respectful to the rest of the girls.
One viewer claimed: "I’m really not liking the bully-ish vibes coming from the cliquey trio of Meg, Megan, and Helena.
"They tried it with Shakira at the start, but she knew how to handle them.
"Same with Malisha — there was an attempt, but thankfully Alima and Shakira backed her."
However, in a new sit-down interview with ITV's The Rundown, Megan Forte Clarke, 24, has insisted that the divide on-screen was not the same in real life.
Podcast host Daniel Ajose suggested that it seemed that "friendship groups were constantly beating each other.
Megan admitted: "Do you know what? Being in there, it doesn't feel like that whatsoever.
"Of course, like, the girls have the ones they'd naturally gravitate towards, like, you're just naturally close to people.
"It's like school, everyone's not like sisters holding hands. But that being said, in there doesn't feel like that whatsoever."
The star admitted that although she was friendly with the likes of Emily and Helena, she also did sit and chat with the other girls.
She hinted that some of the other chats may have not been shown on-screen.
Megan continued: "Because, I know I've been, like, put with Hel [Helena] and Meg, they're like my girls in there and Emily.
"But I’d sit with Shakira and Toni just as much. And Alima, like we were on, and Yasmin as well."
She added: " Like everyone kind of, like, goes and bits. But I think where we're sat for like, chats, yeah, like, [i'd] naturally go towards them.
"But like, even the dressing room, it's like, 'you were this, you were that, oh that looks so good on you!'
