Love Island's Iain Stirling says he was 'bullied at school for being Hibs fan'

Love Island voiceover artist Iain Stirling claims he was bullied at school for being a Hibs supporter.

The Scots presenter and comedian who is married to fellow Love Island host Laura Whitmore revealed he'd had a hard time as a teenager growing up in Edinburgh.

Taking to his Instagram page, Iain showed off a picture of himself in his teens wearing baggy jeans and a black Blink 182 t-shirt with a sweater underneath.

His room wall was painted green and he lay on a bed that boasted a Hibernian Football Club duvet cover.

Iain who appeared to have a violin case and remote control for the telly on the bed, had his head shaved for the picture.

He also had a Hibs designed pillow and even the green carpet in his room appeared to be Hibs themed.

He wrote beside it: "For anyone wondering. Growing up I was a Hibs fan that got bullied at school."

Fans were quick to comment with one saying: "That looks like Rentons bedroom?!"

Another said: "Minus the Hibs part, it looks like we’d have been pals in school."

While someone else added: "Haha you were a “sweaty” as they were called back in the day."
