Love Island’s Danielle reveals ‘real reason’ Luca turned against life-long pal Harriett and failed to have her back
Harriett felt Luca didn't have her back like she has his during a fiery clash with the villa
DANIELLE Sellers reckons she's worked out the 'real reason' her Love Island co-star Luca Bish turned against his life-long friend Harriett Blackmore.
All Stars favourite Harriett, 24, accused Luca, 25 - who she's known since childhood - of failing to have her back during a villa argument.

She was slammed for telling Casey O'Gorman to "shut your f***ing mouth" during a tense game of To Be Honest.
Luca refused to back her and was even spotted laughing behind her back before making up with Harriett when she was saved in the public vote.
They came to blows again later in last night's episode when Harriett asked the public if Luca had her best interests at heart.
He slammed it as a "b*****ks" question despite fans agreeing he does.

In an exclusive interview with The Sun, Danielle suggested Luca and his partner Grace are threatened by Harriett's relationship with Ronnie Vint being strong in the villa.
She said: "I'm definitely team Harriett, I have to say, because Grace tells people to shut the f*** up all the time and no one says anything to her, whereas when Harriet said it...
"Luca's supposed to be a family friend.
"He could have just been like 'yeah you shouldn't speak to people like that but I back you', but he just completely was against her [in front of the group] and I thought that was unfair on Harriet.

"They've got the most chemistry and the most connection when. It's so natural, they're completely themselves.
"I think maybe that's a little bit threatening to Grace and Luca."
Harriett and Ronnie topped a public vote to remain in the villa, while Luca was recoupled with bombshell Samie Elishi by fans last week.
Fans argued Luca has been harbouring a grudge against Harriett because of her powerful position going into the final week.
