Last night’s Love Island (Tuesday 2 July) saw the Casa Amor girls arrive in the main villa and one bombshell who made an immediate impact was Emma Milton, who entered the bedroom to tell the boys to get up.
It was then that Joey Essex confessed that he knew her, which means she’s the second bombshell he’s been involved with on the outside world – as well as Grace Jackson.
But it seems that Emma’s also got history with another Love Islander as it’s been reported that she was involved in the break-up of Love Island 2021 stars Faye Winter and Teddy Soares.
Faye and Teddy split last year after 18 months, with Faye admitting that they “wanted different things”. She added, “I don't know if I will ever be ready to disclose what fully happened between us because that is between me and Teddy.”
Teddy later revealed that Faye had found messages from another woman on his phone, which caused problems in their relationship. According to reports, that woman was Emma.
“Faye and Teddy have both discussed how she found messages on his phone with another girl and that she struggled to deal with it. Emma was that girl,” a source revealed.
They told The Sun, “It’ll be hurtful for Faye to watch Emma now looking for love on the same show where she thought she’d found her own happy ever after.”
There’s no suggestion that Teddy ever cheated on Faye with Emma and a friend of the bombshell has insisted “nothing romantic or flirtatious ever took place” between them.
But Teddy has previously admitted that Faye was unhappy at discovering the messages on his phone. He explained, “My partner at the time had gone through my phone, found that message and had a problem with me messaging that person. And at the time I thought to myself, is this just because I’ve messaged someone who my partner thinks is a good looking person, thinks is really pretty. Is this an ego thing?
“Or is this a situation where genuinely, in my partner’s heart of hearts, they don't like the fact I’ve just messaged another female. I was trying to find the distinction between the two.
“And then I got to a point in my mind where I was like, it doesn't matter that she went through my phone, it doesn't matter that this person is displaying jealousy, it doesn't matter I think I’ve just been completely harmless, what matter is I’ve done something wrong in this person’s eyes.”
Teddy and Faye's reps have been contacted for comment.
