Former Love Island star Zara Lackenby-Brown claims the show ‘robbed’ her of the opportunity to form a romance with Jordan Odofin.
The 25-year-old model was booted out the villa after striking a romance with footballer Tom Clare, but her time was cut short after he chose to save Ellie Spence after a fiery row with Zara.
Following her exit, Zara expressed her interest in bombshell Jordan, 28, who was dumped from the show a week after Zara.
‘Jordan’s gorgeous,’ she said. ‘He’s like my type to a tee and they sent him in after I left! I was robbed!’
Attentive fans have noticed that the two have been spending some time together since touching down in the UK, however, Zara wishes she met the senior HR adviser during her stint on the show.
‘They [the producers] knew Jordan was my type before I even walked in,’ she said.

‘I left the villa thinking my dream man doesn’t exist, and days after Jordan arrives. I understand they have storylines to follow but I deserved to find love,’ she told The Mirror.
Zara recently shared her two cents on the explosive movie night episode which saw Tanya Manhenga and Shaq Muhammed locking horns.
In one of the clips, Shaq was seen innocently flirting with the 25-year-old, much to Tanya’s annoyance.

‘Why am I getting mentioned in this Shaq & Tanya saga ???’ Zara asked followers, and many agreed.
‘Great to see you on my screen but like what way they showing this irrelevant convo and then starting an argument,’ said one fan while another noted they ‘literally couldn’t get anything on Shaq’.
