He’s practically been causing chaos from the moment he entered the Love Island villa and now Harry Cooksley finds himself in a love triangle with former flame Helena Ford and current partner Shakira Khan after those saucy comments in the Heart Rate Challenge.
ICYMI, Harry was in a couple with Sophie Lee on day one, but Shakira stole him and sent Sophie packing. However, things took a turn when Harry snuck off to the Hideaway with Helena and later recoupled with her. Just when we thought he was ready to settle down with our Hels, Hideaway Harry did the dirty once again by snogging Yasmin Pettet and then lying about it and Helena called things off.
Harry is currently coupled up with Shakira once again, but him and Helena just can’t seem to stop flirting with each other and the other Islanders have suggested there’s ‘unfinished business’ between them. When we caught up with recently dumped Islander Shea Mannings, we had to get his take on the situation and he didn’t hold back…
When asked if there’s potential for Harry and Helena to rekindle their romance, Shea exclusively told heat, ‘I think there is, but for me, I think Helena would be silly to go back there, just because he really did treat her like sh*t.
‘He’s my boy. I love Harry, he’s the funniest guy in there, but there’s a way of how to treat a woman and I told him in there [his behaviour] was pretty bad.’
He added, ‘I think she would be silly to go back there, but I could see it happening.’
Speaking about Harry’s wild villa antics, Shea continued, ‘I'll be honest, he knows how to play the game. He’s loving it and all the girls love him. He’s got the chat, he’s funny.
‘I thought Shakira would be the one to tame him, but after watching him kiss Helena in the challenge, you can’t really tell where he’s going to go next.’
As for his brutal villa dumping, Shea said, ‘I kind of expected it to happen a couple days leading up to it, I was just waiting either for a bombshell to come in or to get dumped.
‘I felt like there was no one really in there for me at that time, so it was kind of a waiting game.’
