Love Island's Coco claims her appearance was mocked by the boys away from the cameras

Coco Lodge has claimed some the Love Island villa boys mocked her appearance after she entered the show as a bombshell.

Love Island star Coco, 27, entered the show amongst the Casa Amor girls heading into the main villa.

During her time, she had a blossoming romance with Andrew Le Page but, that soon ended when Tasha Ghouri returned to the main villa from Casa Amor.

Coco caused a stir with her romance with Andrew in the villa and even revealed the pair's bedroom antics to Tasha and the rest of the villa after they split.

After struggling to find a connection with anyone else in the villa, Coco was dumped from the Island.

Now, after leaving the ITV2 dating show, she has has claimed some of the boys in the villa mocked her appearance away from the cameras.

Coco opened up in a YouTube video with influencer Murad Merali alongside her fellow Islander Josh Le Grove.

A tearful Coco said: "There was comments made when the filming was off about I'm a four out of ten by some of the boys."

Podcast presenter Murad asked: "Who said that?"

"I don't know who said it, Summer heard it," Coco said.

Pushing for further clarification, Murad asked: "From the OG boys?"

"Yeah," Coco responded before quoting the boys: "'You're a four out of ten, Paige is a 12' – I think they said it to Paige. I don't really know.

"These comments were made and I had a really hard time in there, I was crying a lot for the first few days."

Elsewhere in the interview Coco, who recently revealed she's returning to her day job after the show, also discussed Jazmine Nicol's claims they had an unaired row after she went behind her back to kiss Andrew.

In a previous interview with Murad, 21-year-old Jazmine claimed she and Andrew, 27, were "going for chats all the time" before he hooked up with Coco.

Jazmine claimed Love Island bosses didn't "show in the challenge that I was the only person that he went and kissed."

"He kissed me and Cheyanne [Kerr] and said, 'Yous are my top two'. Coco was never mentioned," Jazmine revealed to Murad Merali on his YouTube channel.

She added: "There was no indication of Coco – she was never mentioned."

Now, Coco has addressed the claims as she said: "We'd spoken about it in the dressing room. But, this is also what I mean if there was a connection between Jazmine and Andrew wouldn't she have said his name?"

Murad said: "That's what I was wondering, why didn't she speak up?"

"Because there was no connection," Coco said. "There was a conversation, yeah, and maybe he said stuff to her that... We'll never know because it wasn't shown but none of us saw that."

Coco then added: "I'm not being mean, it's the truth. I'm not firing shots. I liked Jazmine, this is my side. I'm just telling the truth because, apparently, there's all this stuff that's been said which isn't true.

"And I know because Chyanne [Kerr] called me and explained it all to me on FaceTime and how they were saying all this stuff in isolation when they just got out the villa.

"And she was like: 'None of this is true girls, why are you coming for these girls?' They said stuff about Chyna, too. It's just not OK."

Coco then insisted: "I would have never come out and said anything about these girls because I liked them but why are you making lies up about me? I just don't understand."
