LOVE Island viewers did not agree with a bold claim Meg made to Shakira on Tuesday's episode.

Fans watching the ITV2 reality dating show could not believe their ears when Meg insisted to Shakira, "I've always been nice to you."

Meg's claim came during the Couple Goals game where the Islanders were asked to answer increasingly difficult questions about other couples in the Spanish villa.

There was tension between Harry and Dejon and also Harry and Blu throughout the game, but the atmosphere really heated up when the couples had to answer the question, "which couple is the most fake?"

Meg and Dejon chose Shakira and Harry, with Meg giving the reason: “I feel like Shakira, you’ve made some very hurtful comments to me that we’re not very nice and I’ve always been there for you.”

Shakira was left less than impressed and said to Harry, “The gloves are off now” as tensions flared, yet again, between the girls. 

Fans reacted with disbelief to Meg's comments.

“'I'VE ALWAYS BEEN NICE TO YOU' Mug is such a f*****g LIAR," wrote one person on X, formerly Twitter.

 

Another added: "When has Meg ever been nice to Shakira?"

And a third posted: "Sorry but Meg saying 'I would have considered you a friend' to Shakira?!? Are you ok?! This just highlights everything Shakira etc. have been saying. Like be real, you guys aren't friends and stop pretending you're this saint. It's laughable!!"

Throughout the series, the villa girls have been divided with two clear friendship groups emerging over the course of the ITV2 programme.

On one side have been Shakira, Toni and Yasmin who have been fiercely loyal to one another and stood by each other in times of need, while Meg and Helena, as well as Megan, have made up the other half of the main villa divide.

The two groups tried to put their differences aside, days after a huge row at the explosive Grafties ceremony. The ladies decided to hug it out and put an apparent end to the bubbling feud between them.

But with less than a week to go until someone is crowned Love Island champion, fans have claimed the moment was a producer-led decision to help Meg and Helena to come across better.
