LOVE Island star Mal Nichol has been accused of being "shady" over her comments about former co-stars.

Mal, 25, entered the villa on day 16 as a bombshell and instantly made a connection with Sammy, 22, but it wasn't meant to be and she was dumped from the island.

Sammy then cracked on with football icon Dennis Wise's daughter Amber in Casa Amor, but later realised he still had feeling for Jess Harding and decided to dump 19-year-old Amber.

Mal and Amber reunited and shared a TikTok clip of them at an event on Thursday.

She captioned it: "At least we were both coupled up with the winner."

But some eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot Mal liking some "shady" comments about Sammy and Jess.

In response, Jess commented on the TikTok, replying to a fan who said they were happy that her and Sammy won.

According to fans on Reddit, Mal is said to have deleted the shady comments towards Jess and Sammy and liked posts congratulating the couple.

Mal replied on one post: “We love you."

But some fans were not happy with Mal's behaviour and called her out for being sly.

One wrote: "Basically backtracking on everything she liked and acting fake towards Jess even though Jess already saw all the shade…

"Yikes idk why everyone keeps praising Mal on this sub when she's been nonstop talking about Jess and Sammy since coming out of the villa and spreading more hate towards them.

"You would think she was in the villa for a month the way she keeps talking about it but she was barely in there for 5 days.

"Either way it looks like Jess & Sammy are not on good terms with Mal and honestly I hope they call her out during the reunion."

Another posted: "Considering the hate they’re already getting this was very unnecessary from Mal.

"The way some of these islanders move shadily but instantly backtrack and try to play dumb the second they get any push back, do it with your chest or don’t bother."

A third commented: "I just think its so odd that she was only coupled up with him for a couple days and she's gone on every podcast and keeps trying to push that Sammy still doesn't like Jess after a month."

While another added: "It looks like majority of the cast who made it to finals don’t follow her but they follow everyone else whose come and gone from the villa."

During her time on the ITV2 show, Mal was coupled up with Sammy, while his former flame Jess was cracking on with Mitchel Taylor, 26.

After Sammy entered the villa on day 5, he picked Jess, but during their time as a couple, the hunk made it clear that he "wasn't closed off" and wanted to get to know other people.
