A number of Love Island stars were recently missing from a mini-reunion night out, sparking speculation of a feud.
Former stars from this year's show, Claudia Fogarty and Samie Elishi enjoyed a cosy-looking double date with Samie's boyfriend Tom Clare and his bestie Casey O’Gorman, who Claudia was with for a time on the show, before he ditched her for Rosie Seabrook.
The foursome travelled in a swanky car to a restaurant in Manchester, before heading on a night out where they were joined by Claudia's sister Danielle, as well as some of their former co-stars including Tanya Manhenga, Shaq Muhammad and Aaron Waters.
It comes after much speculation that Claudia and Casey have re-ignited their spark, although Claudia recently slammed any idea of a reconciliation during a recent Q&A on Instagram.
She said: "So since this is the most popular question I'm going to address it now: me and Casey are just friends," she told the camera in a videoed response.
"We have been since leaving the villa, there's no bad blood between us and there's also no relationship between us – apart from friendship.
"We get on really well and you know, we were part of the same friend group in there, we both get on really well with Samie [Elishi] and Tom [Clare].
"We're all going out this weekend with the others, that'll be really fun. But yes, you can all squash it now because it's just friends and nothing else. That's all there is to it I'm afraid."
Casey recently confirmed that he and Rosie had decided to just be friends after leaving the villa, and she recently broke her silence as she posted a pouting picture to Instagram, although she didn't directly reference Casey.
After Casey and Tom were spotted hanging out outside of the villa without their "third musketeer" Will Young, fans have been speculating as to whether there is a feud going on between the boys.
During their time on this year’s show, the three friends appeared to strike up a strong friendship – even dubbing themselves the three musketeers for their close camaraderie.
However, since they left the South African villa at the beginning of the month, fans are convinced that the friends may have fallen out, as only Casey and Tom still seemed to be maintaining their friendship back in the real world.
Taking to Instagram, Casey shared how “excited” he was to be heading north to Barnsley so that he could hang out with Tom and one of his friends as part of a pizza night.
Will meanwhile has been firmly focused on his new girlfriend Jessie Wynter since they left the villa, while Tom and Casey continue to spend time together.
"I’ve noticed that Will kinda distanced himself from the three musketeer s**t,” observed once fan.
A second fan then agreed, adding: "Does seem like it a bit and can't help wonder if the "Jessie's fake" has put a dent in the friendship a bit. I think Jessie wasn't Casey's biggest fan and maybe Will is prioritising her, and good for him tbh.”
