The businesswoman, 22, stresses to followers she is "just telling you my experience" as she claims some seemingly loved-up show stars "just link up when it's time to take a picture."
The beauty - who caused quite the stir when she stepped foot in the villa last year - started her scathing clip with the words: "Disclaimer I'm not bashing anybody.
"I'm not specifically speaking about a particular person."
She continued: "Nobody likes each other - some of your fan favourites will be excluded from the groups and it's shocking when you see pictures and the TikTokers doing their videos, they take their pictures and disperse.

"Some of your favourite couples aren't really couples.
"Liked booed up on the internet and, in real life, the girl will be all the way over there and the guy will be all the way over there for the entire party.
"And they'll just link up when it's time to take a picture."
Diamante set her sights on fellow Islander Sean Stone, 24, during her villa stint.
