‘Love Island’s Kady used my make-up photos and claimed they were hers,’ says make-up artist
Manchester lass Bobbi Johnson claims Kady McDermott played her work off as her own
A make-up artist from Manchester has claimed that Kady from Love Island used photos of her work without her permission.
Bobbi Johnson claims Kady McDermott took her Instagram photos and used them to promote her own make-up and hair business.
Bobbi says Kady took photos of HD brows she did on her close pal and claimed it was her work.
She claims Kady cropped her image in an effort to make it look different from the original.
She contacted Kady's make-up page but they are unable to remove the images while she's in the Love Island villa.
Voicing her frustration, Bobbi said: “It’s embarrassing that she has to use other people’s photos to get make-up clients.
“I’m furious that she’s getting more clients because of my hard work.
"I'm really angry because it's blatantly my picture."

A friend of Kady's apologised and said they would remove the photographs as soon as possible.
They said: "I don't know what's gone on and as a beautician and hairdresser myself I understand why you could be upset that another stylist has taken credit for your work.
"I promise that the second Kady returns from the villa she will delete all posts of your work, if there are more than one."
Kady, 20, who previously dated Sam Reece, rose to fame on Love Island and told her clients she would be going away indefinitely before entering the reality show.
She said: "Hi everyone, I won't be taking any more appointments for make-up or HD brows till further notice. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. "
Since appearing on the show, Kady has coupled up with Scott Thomas but things have been rocky between the pair for the past few weeks.
She slammed him and the other Love Island boys for getting overly excited about the possibility of Sophie Gradon and Katie Salmon hooking up on the show.
Speaking in the Beach Hut, she said: "I was fuming with Scott. When Katie first told us she was bisexual, I was 20 seconds behind him. By the time he got to the stairs he'd already told Nathan, Terry and Alex."
When she later joined Scott and the group she told him: "No one should put pressure on them just because they're two girls. People shouldn't be getting over excited."
Scott was quick to defend himself and said: "What are you trying to say? I'll get excited as much as I want."
Kady replied: "You're 28, have you not been around gay people before? It's pathetic, it's not real life porn, it's people's relationships.
"I'll be honest, I've been a bit offended by you boys tonight. All of you.
She continued: "How much you've gone on about the two girls going out, and I know it's stressed Sophie and Katie out a bit. After tonight, we all draw a line. You've all gone on about it.
"It's not a big deal. The fact that people are making such a big deal about it is offensive to me."
