Love Island star Demi Jones has taken to Instagram to drop a heavy hint that her fellow Islanders are not who they used to be.
During a Q&A Demi was asked by one fan if she still spoke to villa bestie Shaughna Phillips, to which she replied, “@ShaughnaPhillips is my girl!
“A lot of people change after the show, but she is the realest one there is.”
Cute.
She also posted a never before seen snap of herself with “no make-up cuddled in bed together” with twins Jess and Eve Gale after another follower asked for a snap of her “with the twins”.
It’s not the first time Demi has thrown shade at her series cast-mates, back in June she revealed that a few of them hadn’t contacted her after she announced her thyroid cancer diagnosis.

Love Island's Demi Jones accused of 'lying' about thyroid cancer diagnosis
This is why Demi Jones' honesty about her potential thyroid cancer is so admirable and important
"It’s weird because Love Island is like a weird incestual family, you come out and all the other ex-Islanders are in your DMs. Everyone has been supportive, we all support each other in different ways."
But she added, "A few Islanders didn't reach out to me, which I didn't expect. I’m not going to name names, it will cause problems.
"It’s weird because we were so close in the villa so then coming out and then zero contact. I wish them all the best but I feel I don’t know what the reason is, I don’t know if they just want to separate from the whole Love Island hysteria. It is what it is."
