LOVE Island has been hit with fresh 'fix' claims after controversial star Harrison Solomon was caught spilling behind-the-scenes secrets in a fan-recorded TikTok.
In the viral video, Harrison, 22, is approached inside a London Boots branch by a fan who recognises him and immediately grills him about the show.
He says in disbelief: “I swear you’re the guy from Love Island, innit? There is no way,” before diving into questions about Harrison’s antics on the show.
The admirer adds: “Mad guy innit? Bouncing between two gyal and them things there. But you know what? I rate it though.”
Harrison, who found himself at the centre of a love triangle in the villa, responds: “Appreciate that man… Lauren was one of the gyal in the triangle, man. And I chose Lauren. Now I’m back home.”
When asked what the villa is “really like” behind the scenes, Harrison - joined by 26-year-old Lauren Wood - replies: “Bro it’s crazy… challenges, everything, all sorts man. Drama every day.”
The fan presses on, asking whether the drama is genuine or played up for the cameras. Harrison insists: “Yeah, it’s real. It’s real. Mad.”
But it’s his next comment that’s raised eyebrows among viewers.
Harrison admits: “They’ll like put people together and stuff like that to have conversations and stuff like that.”
The fan then chimes in with: “I know one of the Love Islanders, they told me like, yo they’ll tell you like, cool, just bless you with that person.”
Harrison replies: “Yeah yeah yeah. They’ll say that shit. Fair enough.”
The clip sparked speculation that producers may be manipulating scenes for entertainment.
In response, a Love Island spokesperson told The Sun: “I think it’s worth pointing out that he says twice in that clip that the drama is real himself.
"For guidance, the opinions the Islanders have, decisions they make and the relationships formed are completely within the control of the Islanders themselves.
"What is shown is an accurate representation of villa life.”
Harrison decided to quit the show in a surprise move after Lauren was dumped from the villa.
Lauren begged him to go with her, but he said he wanted to sleep on it.
The following day, Harrison announced to the Islanders that he was leaving the process.
Harrison and Lauren had sex while in the villa together, which caused divided opinions among viewers.
Upon his exit, Harrison was asked how he felt about his mum and dad knowing what he had done on television.
He said: “I hope they didn’t see. But listen, it was a natural thing.
“I don’t think I intended to have sex in the villa, but in there all the Islanders could tell we were so attracted to each other.
“Naturally, it was going to happen.
“The spark between us was crazy.
“I probably wasn’t thinking about my parents and them watching it, but it naturally happened and I don’t regret it.”
The controversial Islander was then slammed for his "scripted" apology after he appeared on Aftersun on Sunday.
Harrison said he felt the point that his romancing of both girls went too far was after he'd slept with Lauren.
"I think maybe when we did bits," he said. "Probably took it a little bit too far talking to Toni after that.
"I obviously regret that massively and I apologise to both the girls but, yeah, it wasn't good for me."
He then said if he had his time again he would have had up front conversations with Toni and Lauren earlier to save them getting upset.
But viewers weren't buying his latest apology, with one writing on X: "Harrison has CLEARLY wrote a speech and memorised it this is not genuine."
Another said: "Harrison has gotten away with what he’s done way too easily."
A third posted: "Harrison's not sorry for sh*t."
A fourth said: "Is anyone buying this with Harrison?
"I'm glad no one clapped at Harrison's poor excuse of an apology."
- Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
