Love Island's Scott Thomas has uncovered the truth about his explosive argument with Luca Bish in the All Stars villa.
Viewers were shocked when the boys clashed last week in an argument over Tina Stinnes. Scott, 36, had confided in other male members of the villa that he had feelings for Tina, 29, but asked them not to mention anything to her.
In the middle of a truth or dare game, however, Luca, 25, stirred the pot when he suggested that Scott was being dishonest about his emotions. The former reality star furiously berated his co-star - and even had to be held back by fellow contestants as he lunged towards the young fisherman.
Days later, Scott sensationally quit the All Stars villa and flew back to the UK after deciding his second attempt to find love on the ITV show wasn't for him. Now that he is back in the UK, the star - who is the brother of soap actors Adam Thomas and Ryan Thomas - has peeled back the truth about his feud.

Speaking to fellow former Love Islanders Indiyah Polack and Amy Hart on their The Morning After podcast he said: "Me and Luca, I don’t think you saw it, he was bantering me non stop every day until the point the guys and girls were like 'why don't you say anything why are you taking it'?
"I can't really do like, nice banter - you know when you just got a sense that he can give so much banter but he’s quite a little fragile soul as well. I was like I don't wanna give him too much banter because I knew I might get a big bite back. I know the Vegas night was a big moment - that was just one snapshot of like a week of like which kind of escalated and escalated." He went on to describe his friendship with Luca as becoming "challenging".
He went on: "But I love Luca. I've got a soft spot for him. He is like a little brother, but yeah, it was just such a challenging relationship because we didn't know each other's boundaries as brothers you know each other's boundaries. So I think the Vegas night kind of taught us both a lesson on where to go with each other and we just kind of squashed it, but I've got so much love for him. He's got a big heart, I can't wait to link up with him in the real world."
Fans were appalled when the boys viciously argued on the ITV show last week. Scott savagely barked at Luca "Are you f**king stupid!" as they quarrelled, and was held back by other men in the villa as he lunged for the younger contestant.
Some viewers have called for Scott to be dumped for his reaction. One wrote on X: "Scott????? Surely that’s a reason to send him home #LoveIsland #LoveIslandAllStars." "Luca is killing me bc why's Scot gotten mad like that?" asked another. Meanwhile, a third went on to say: "Damnit how’s Luca the most likeable islander this season..."
"#LoveIsland what are Scott and Luca even fighting about get a grippppp," tweeted another. "Scott cant stand being answered back by Luca, he thinks hes above everyone the nasty pr**k," added a fifth. But the star himself walked from the show days later.
