Love Island’s Teddy Soares may have reached the final alongside girlfriend Faye Winterbut his ex-girlfriend has blasted him as “arrogant and vacuous” and has hinted that he is even faking his feelings.

Despite Feddy (Faye and Teddy) being one of the favourites to win the whole show, Flora Waterhouse, who dated Teddy for year in 2017 believes that the pair will not work on the outside world.

She told The Sun, “Teddy has spent his whole life being told he’s gorgeous.

“But that’s no good if you don’t have the personality to back it up — and he doesn’t.”

Ouch.

“He’s very good at chat and being charming, but he doesn’t have any balls or a backbone. You can see it in the way he just sits behind Faye as she kicks off at others,” she continued.

“He has kept very calm when that has happened. But he would have been seething inside, as he hates not being able to control a situation, and he can’t control Faye.”

Flora then admitted she was shocked when Teddy expressed interest in Faye as he had previously said he "doesn’t like girls who look like they have surgery".

She said, “I was surprised when he went for her, as he told me he hated girls who were fake, and loved the natural look. He told my mum the same thing too. He would say he didn’t even like girls who wore loads of make-up.

“So Faye is the opposite of who I would have expected him to go for. Maybe he genuinely likes her, maybe he’s just in it for the votes. But I don’t think they will last five minutes outside the villa. They definitely aren’t compatible at all.”

Flora’s relationship with Teddy ended when he reportedly demanded she return early from a holiday in Brighton.

Chloe Burrows

Chloe may have caught all the boys' attentions as evidenced in a recent explosive episode, but you can see she's always been a stunner from this uni halls pic taken way back in 2015.

Faye Winter

Faye has certainly nailed this classic Instapose in this snap from 2019 - the hair, tan and Adidas bodysuit are all on point and a sign of things to come.

Brad McClellan

A quick glance over Brad's insta and it's clear he uses it primarily to document his fitness journey. This snap from 2017 is from before it all began.

Kaz Kamwi

Kaz was already a fashion blogger before she entered the Love Island villa, and so her first photo is appropriately professional looking (boo).

Aaron Francis

Like Kaz, Aaron was already trying his hand as an influencer before he signed up to Love Island and so most of his photos are pretty glossy, but scroll down far enough and we found this photo of him seemingly winning an arm wrestle against Somoan Rugby Union player Many Tuilangi.

Toby Aromolaran

Toby's not giving anything away with this sultry selfie from 2018, other than perhaps that he's heading off on his holidays, judging by his passport and boarding pass. He doesn't look that excited about it though, does he?

In case you missed it, Sharon used to compete in beauty pageants and was Miss UK 2018. Here she is from the Galaxy pageant that same year.

Liberty Poole

It looks like Liberty has always been a big fan of the finer things in life - as well as a blonde hair extension or two - judging from this snap with a pal from 2019.

Liam Reardon

Viewers couldn't believe that Liam was only 21 when he entered the villa, but here's proof that Liam looked 30 way back in 2018 (regular teenaged boy for reference).

Rachel Finni

This photo of Rach taken on a night out was posted in 2017 but captioned, "2 Years Ago ud83dude2b#CanILookLikeThisAgainPlease", so we can assume it's from way back in 2015.

Millie Court

Proving she's always been a fan of posing up a storm in a bikini, we're majorly jeal of Millie's 2018 holiday to Cannes. Ahh, holidays - remember those?

Lucinda Strafford

Right, we can't actually believe this 2018 photo of bombshell Lucinda - have Love Island checked her I.D.? Is she old enough to be on the show?

She explained, “Our relationship fizzled out. The final straw came when I went on holiday with my girlfriends.

“He told me to come back or we would be over. So I stayed where I was. We did have some good times, but I was ready to walk away. In the end, dating him was a waste of time.”

However, a source close to Teddy’s family responded to the claims, telling the publication, “It’s a shame to see Teddy being mischaracterised when he has no opportunity to respond himself. What people are seeing on the show is very much the real Teddy.”

Faye and Teddy’s loved ones surprised the pair in the villa on Sunday night and Faye was left feeling that she had to ‘work’ on her relationship with his brothers following her now famous outburst during the Movie Night task.

Teddy’s brother Carlos called her out for her behaviour after she joked, "I wasn't that bad, was I?" in reference to her behaviour.

"You were terrible," he responded.

Faye screamed at Teddy and called him a "liar" after she saw him admit he found a sexual attraction to Clarisse Juliette in Casa Amor.

Their shocking argument received a record-breaking 24,000 Ofcom complaints but they eventually managed to forgive and forget, and Teddy made Faye his OFFICIAL girlfriend last week.
