A FORMER Love Island star has let rip at the ITV2 show and called it a 'scam' in a scathing outburst.
The Edinburgh-born beauty - who starred in the summer 2023 series - has let rip at 'fake' reality TV.
TikTok star Mal Nicol - who was dumped after nine days in the villa - can be seen on the social media site responding to another clip from claiming that producers don't want Shakira to win the show.
The Scottish star vented: "This is why I do not watch reality TV, because it's a scam, it's a scam, it's a scam, it's a scam.
"People are too, I don't know, like, bum licking Love Island. Like, I don't care. I'm gonna say it's a scam.
"All reality TV is a scam. Do I sound like a person that believes the earth is flat?
"I'm telling you, The X Factor is a scam.
"Britain's Got Talent is a scam. It's a scam. It's a scam. You've been scammed, it's just insane."
She continued: "People who are genuine and actually have connections or whatever, they're f***ing up.
"I'm not even gonna mention it, but I'm gonna sound so bitter, I'm a hater or whatever.
"Just reality TV is not real. It's not real. It's fake as f**k. Oh my god, I’m literally gonna cry.
"It's so frustrating because people believe it.
"Another thing I'm gonna say... people always are like, Oh, the edit did me bad."
She concluded: "I'm like, genuinely, if you're a bad person, they can't edit you to be anything else.
"If you're a bad person, there's no way an edit makes you look bad.
"If you're a good person, you're a good person. It will be shown. Let me leave it there."
Mal entered the Love Island villa on day 16 and chose to go on dates with Mitchel Taylor and Sammy Root - who went on to win the show with Jess Harding.
On day 18 she chose to couple up with Sammy but was dumped from the show shortly afterwards when she received the fewest votes for favourite girl.
The former Love Island bombshell told fans last year that she'd been approached for a new series of MAFS.
She took to Instagram to share a message apparently from one of the E4 show's casting agents - but is now happily in a relationship with her investment banker man.
The Sun has contacted ITV reps for comment.
