The latest series of Love Island was just absolute drama from start to finish, wasn’t it? Those All Stars really know how to give us what we want and one Islander who was in the absolute thick of it throughout the series was Ronnie Vint.
Whether it was his love triangle with Elma Pazar and Kaz Crossley, the rocky road to rekindling things with Harriett Blackmore or his beef with Luca Bish, Ronnie had a lot going on.
Speaking of the latter, Luca recently spoke out about how he really feels about Ronnie following the tension between them when Harriett admitted she didn’t feel supported by Luca during that whole Casey O’Gorman ‘shut your f**king mouth’ debacle.
During an appearance on the Wednesdays podcast alongside Grace Jackson earlier this week, Luca was asked who was the ‘snakiest’ Islander he lived with in the All Stars villa with and the hosts – Made in Chelsea’s Sophie Habboo and Melissa Tattam – suggested that it could be Ronnie after he told Casey that he ‘wouldn’t be friends with Luca’ if it wasn’t for their mutual connection with Harriett.
Luca then revealed that he only learned that Ronnie had been making comments behind his back after he left the villa.
‘I could only go off what was happening in front of me. I’ve heard a lot since,’ he explained.
‘I didn’t hear any of it and I pulled him up a few times and said like, “I’ve heard this”.’
But, according to Luca, Ronnie told him, ‘That’s not true.’
And when asked which couple they’re most excited to socialise with in the outside world, Grace admitted that it was Harriett and Ronnie, despite the drama.
However it seems a conversation needs to be had before they all go out for a night on the town as Luca said, ‘I didn’t know there was a hurdle until I came out, so now there is a hurdle.’
Grace added, ‘We didn’t know anything that’s been said until we landed and got out phones back.’
Luca replied, ‘But then my boys are piping up, so we’ll have a chat. I’ll pull him for a chat.’
It seems there’s not really any beef between them, however, as Grace admitted Ronnie was only being ‘protective of Harriett’.
‘I think he thought you’d done wrong so he was just saying what he felt like he wanted to say,’ she added.
