Love Island’s Tyrique Hyde has broken his silence on his bitter feud with his co-star Ella Barnes.
During an appearance on Toby Aromolaran's Fancy a Chat? podcast, he revealed his honest opinion on the bombshell.
When asked by Toby about how he knows Ella B, Tyrique responded they're both from Kent and that he wasn't impressed about her lying about their history.
He explained: "I actually like Ella B. I’ve got time for her but it’s like, don’t talk like we’ve got history because babe, no we haven’t. No we haven’t Ella B.
"Like we just know each other and we talk on snap and Insta, we don’t go on no dates, we ain’t never been intimate, we ain't had s*x, you need to slow down Ella B.

"She come in and apparently one time she was like to Ella she was like ‘yeah like, you don’t know him like I know him’
"When Ella told me that bro, I’m thinking ‘she don’t know me herself!’ It’s a mad one still. But I get her, she’s a bombshell.
"She aint (lying) We had a little kiss in the club, but it weren’t like I was snogging her face off."
Toby responded: " She was slapping it on hard bro."
Tyrique jumped in: "Bro that’s what annoyed me about the whole thing.
"I thought I handled that well, Ella B knows what I meant, of course it wasn’t going to happen, it weren’t like ‘it’s a shame’ It was the tone of voice, it was different, Ella B knew that as well but she was talking about mixed signals.
"They showed the clip on the grafties, it was still calm, when it came up I thought, now you can see, then Ella made that comment and I was like, what are you talking about.
"That was winding me up."
Ella B arrived in the villa halfway through the series and had her eye firmly set on winning Tyrique back from Ella Thomas, who he was coupled up with at the time.
Her entry caused a few issues in the villa, with Ella T breaking down in tears during an argument with her man.

She told Tyrique: "So I spoke to Ella today, you told me you weren't on it but she told me you were flirting."
A defensive Tyrique responded: "She knows what she's doing, why wouldn't you talk to me after. So you don't trust me now?"
Tyrique and Ella T went on to reach third place while Whitney and Lachlan placed second.
Jess Harding and Sammy Root came first, winning the £50k prize as the surprise winners of the series.
