LOVE Island star Claudia Fogarty's mum has revealed she broke down in tears over her daughter's woes in the South Africa villa.

Her mum told Aftersun host Maya Jama it had been a "hard watch" - after Claudia sobbed to the girls over her partner Casey O'Gorman's villa antics.

Casey, 26, had his head turned by bombshell Rosie just hours after she entered the villa, despite being in a couple with Claudia for almost two weeks.

Claudia's mum Michaela told Maya, 28: "Oh it's been such a hard watch. It's so tough watching your daughter getting so upset on television.

"Oh my goodness she sent me a Love Island survival kit at Christmas with tissues and tequila in it, and I thought, 'why?'"

Maya suggested: "And now you understand..."

Michaela replied: "Yeah."

She also insisted had Claudia found herself in a love triangle on the outside world she would have walked away by now.

The concerned mum admitted: "Everything is magnified in there, she's seen something with Casey and Rosie, and she can't get out the way.

"On the outside, she'd be like, 'see ya, I'm out the door'."

Viewers reacted to Michaela's appearance on Twitter, and one said: "Claudia’s mum defo doesn’t want Casey with Claudia. She just doesn’t want to say incase it happens."

Others were stunned by their family resemblance, and one put: "Claudia is the spit of her mum!"

Claudia, who runs clothing boutique Storm Fashion with sister Danielle, is the daughter of I'm A Celeb winner Carl Fogarty.

She entered Winter Love Island as a late bombshell two weeks ago.

Claudia already has one love of her life - her adorable dog, Skye - who also features on her Instagram page.
