During an episode of this year's Love Island, Ciaran was furious with Joey for snogging his lady and even swore at him in a heated exchange once the game had finished.

Joey insisted that he only picked Nicole to 're-mark her' after previously rating her as a 'bad kisser'.

At the time Nicole and Ciaran were the only official 'closed off' couple in the villa, meaning Joey's kiss raised some serious eyebrows.

On her turn in the game, Nicole snogged Ciaran and decided to 'pie' Joey. But Ciaran still pulled Joey up on it later.

Ciaran then suddenly expoloded: "Joey, just let me f***ing speak.

"I just think it's weird that you've gone and kissed by missues, that's it. "

Now, a few weeks after leaving the villa it appears Ciaran is still FUMING about the incident.

Addressing the situation, he told fans: "I don't know all this producer talk and stuff.

"To me everything I've done, bad or good, is all me.

"So, even if, you know, producers or production is in somebody's ear and you're doing something to me or doing something, at someone, you've still got to expect the reaction back.

"You can't just then go, 'oh yeah but production told me to do it'.

Before adding: "But if you're gonna give it, you've got to expect it back.'

Love Island series 11 - feuds in the villa

No edition of Love Island is complete without its fair share of drama - and series 11 is no different. Here's a look at some of the most fiery feuds so far.

  • Joey Essex & Samantha Kenny: Samantha entered the villa on Day 1 and was initially coupled with Sam Taylor. However, Samantha was 'stolen' by Joey, the first bombshell of series 11. She was 'dumped' on Day 16 - with the make-up artist saying she had been brutally snubbed by Joey in the villa - although it never made it to air.
  • Matilda Draper & Jess White: While Matilda arrived as a bombshell on Day 12, Jess was part of the original line-up. The two clashed in Casa Amor, over Jess' frustration that Matilda was talking to new hunk Hugo Godfroy - who Jess previously snogged.
  • Harriet Blackmore & Jess White: The two women were caught up in a love triangle for much of their time on the programme. The pair were fighting over Ronnie Vint, 27, from Greenwich, who wound up being dumped alongside Harriett.
