Love Island winner Kem Cetinay warned Chris Hughes not to publish flirty Katie Price messages
LOVE Island winner Kem Cetinay warned Chris Hughes not to publish the flirty texts from Katie Price that have sparked a furious war of words between the pair.
The reality star was with his best mate when he tweeted her messages, the Sun’s Bizarre column can reveal.
He hit back at mum-of-five Katie calling her a “rotten piece of s***”.
Speaking about the messages Chris released last month, Kem, 21, said: “It kind of blew up more than it needed to be.
“I think I was with him, I weren’t in the room with him but I was with him.
“Honestly I was saying ‘Chris don’t do it!’
“I was like ‘who are you texting?’ He’s like ‘no-one’.
“I looked at my thing – Chris has just written a tweet.
“I was sitting there I was like ‘Chris have you done it?’ and he was like yeah I’ve done it.
“When he done it in the beginning I was like ‘cor Chris you’ve got yourself in a battle here’.”
Chris originally told the Sun he had been sent flirty text messages from Katie after his Loose Women appearance.
He later published the text and WhatsApp messages to Twitter, igniting a furious row.
The Straight Outta Love Island star claimed he has “not been replying” to her but last night Katie revealed to the Sun Snapchat exchanges with Chris.
In one message Chris said that girlfriend Olivia Attwood is “fame hungry” and loved publicity before confessing that he’s had a “tough time,” which prompted Katie to offer him advice.
Another text showed Chris apologising to Katie and telling her that he had “no choice” but to tweet the messages.

And a in a final message he calls Katie a “lovely person” and begs for forgiveness following the drama.
This sparked a furious reaction from Chris who released a foul-mouthed statement on Twitter which he soon took down.
Kem hinted his mate, who he released song Little Bit Leave It With, was hot headed like him.
He told the Sun: “I think with Chris he can’t bite his tongue and sometimes when something like that happens you could have everyone in the world saying to him it’s not worth it, Chris and he’s like ‘no’.
“There was no need for him to say anything and he’s sitting there and I’m going ‘don’t do it Chris’.
“Thing is I know Chris, he’s a bit like me but I know when to lay off.”
