Love Island's Coco had 'breakdown' and smashed up studio after Andrew coupled with Tasha

Coco Lodge has said she was left "hyperventilating" in the Love Island villa after being left devastated when Andrew Le Page decided to reconnect with Tasha Ghouri.

The 27-year-old bombshell entered the show during Casa Amor and quickly grew close to Andrew, 27.

Things soon ended when Tasha, 23, returned to the main villa and agreed to take Andrew back, despite his Casa Amor antics.

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

She has now opened up about how upset she was over Andrew's decision and even admitted to breaking part of the villa set.

"I was genuinely crying, hyperventilating out the front with the producers," she said in a YouTube video with influencer Murad Merali.

Coco added: "I broke one of the fairy light lightbulbs outside the villa because I was so upset I accidentally kicked it.

"I was genuinely so emotional in there. I was in the beach hut hyperventilating."

The dumped islander said viewers saw her make one-liner comments after being "pied off".

She said while it was banter, she was also "trying to protect myself with this outer exterior of not being hurt when I was so badly hurt."

Coco also revealed she had a chat with Andrew before the Casa Amor recoupling after crying because she was "emotionally invested" in their connection.

She said: "I was like, just worried about being hurt in the long run so when I had the conversation with him, I was just open and honest.

"I said 'I really don't want you to take me back, cause all this awkwardness with the OG girls and then basically I get mugged off'."

Elsewhere in the interview, Coco claimed some of the boys mocked her appearance away from the cameras.

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

She said she didn't know who said it as it had been Summer Botwe who overheard it.

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

"Yeah," Coco said 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."

Love Island airs tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
