Love Island star reveals All Stars STOPPED filming for two days because there was too much drama
LOVE Island All Star bosses pulled the plug on filming for an entire two days because there was too much drama, one islander has claimed.
Olivia Hawkins claims the islanders were told they didn’t have to film for 48-hours in the first week because so much had happened.
Instead, she says herself and her fellow swimwear-clad co-stars “ate biscuits and chocolate” to pass the time.
Olivia, who was dumped from Love Island All Stars a week ago, spilled the tea during a Q&A with fans.
She was asked on Instagram: “What do u do when u don’t film?”
Olivia replied: “Eat lots of chocolate and biscuits!!!”
She then added: “Fun fact, there was so much drama in the first week… we had two days off filming.”
The Sun has contacted ITV for comment.
Olivia was among the first 12 islanders to enter the Cape Town villa when Love Island All Stars kicked off earlier this month.
The series got off to a strong start with exes Marcel Somerville and Gabby Allen being coupled up and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu making a dramatic entrance as the first bombshell.
There was also an epic row between Kaz Crossley and Casey O’Gorman when he made his third entrance as a bombshell in week one.
Olivia ended up in a couple with Marcel and the early signs in their relationship appeared promising.
However, last week they were given the chop after the public were asked to vote for the least compatible couple.
Even Love Island host Maya Jama branded their departure a “shock exit” while chatting to them once on the outside.
Marcel told Maya: “I feel like we had a really good compatible relationship.”
Olivia added: “I feel the last two days we got so close.”

Olivia arrived back in the UK three days ago but she is yet to be pictured on social media with Marcel.
Instead, she has shared snaps of her new manicure and hair after heading straight for some beauty treatments.
Olivia has also revealed she is excited to catch up with fellow OGs Kaz Crossley and Nas Majeed, who were dramatically dumped from the island on Tuesday.
Kaz was given the boot alongside bombshell Montel McKenzie in a shock mass cull.
Olivia posted a pic of Kaz and Nas on Instagram and wrote: “Can’t wait to squeeze you both.”
