Shaughna, 25, famously made the dig when Callum returned from Casa Amor with Molly on his arm.
When asked how she felt about it, she told Laura Whitmore: “I’m happy for Callum. I should have never trusted a scaffolder anyway.”
Rebecca later reiterated the point telling her friend not to date them anymore either.
Shaughna had previously revealed that her last boyfriend was also a scaffolder and had treated her badly.

Yesterday it was revealed that a new lad was entering the villa and he had picked Shaughna to go on a date with.
Callum couldn’t resist making a joke about it, saying: “I hope he’s not a scaffolder”.
Even Shaughna’s mum isn’t a fan of scaffolders and said her daughter “should have known better” when she appeared on AfterSun last night.
She said: "I've been absolutely blown away by her. Her composure through all of it. She stands for every women in the UK and we all stand by her.
