Love Island's Summer Botwe slams Coco Lodge fallout as 'boring' after reunion drama

Summer Botwe has described the drama involving herself and Coco Lodge as "boring," following tension between the former Islanders during the recent Love Island reunion.

It comes after Coco, 27, said on a podcast that she could have slept with their co-star Josh Le Grove, 22, after leaving the villa – with him recently linked to Summer, 21.

The remark is understood to have sparked tension between Coco and Summer, who were seen bickering with each other at the reunion – which aired on Sunday (August 7).

Coco has since claimed a few "nasty" comments about her weren't aired, with Summer said to have now addressed the drama herself during a Q&A on Instagram.

MailOnline reports that a fan asked if she had seen "shady" comments made by Coco recently on TikTok, to which Summer said that she found the topic boring.

She replied: "Funny cos she's blocked and still finds a way to watch me but we move. I got nothing to say about the girl. If she wanted to say something to me directly, she'd do it with chest."

Summer further responded: "I'm not commenting on this situation any further. It's boring, I got bigger and better things to worry about RESPECTFULLY'."

The outlet reports that the question was referencing a TikTok video – which appears to have been uploaded by @igvpresents – in which Coco spoke about the drama.

Coco said: "I said a joke in a podcast. [...] I didn't really think that [Josh] and Summer were going to be like this couple coming out. [...] It genuinely was just a joke on a podcast."

Addressing the reunion, she said: "I'd felt it wasn't the time to bring that up in front of people." She added in the clip that Summer made "some quite nasty" comments.

Coco made similar claims during an exclusive Facebook Live interview with the Mirror earlier this week, in which the former Islander said her and Summer aren't speaking.

Despite this though, Coco said she's "fine with her" and won't hold a grudge. She added: "I just can't be involved in that drama. [...] I just take a step back and do my own thing."

The Mirror approached Coco and Summer's reps for comment.

Love Island: The Reunion and other episodes from the latest series of the ITV2 show are available through ITV Hub.
