Love Island's Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown has claimed that a villa couple were told to 'stage their breakup' after producers failed to capture it on camera the first time.The stunning model, who starred on the winter series earlier this year and had a brief romance with Tom Claire, exposed the villa secret during an interview with the Daily Star.
Zara claimed that the couple in question decided to end their relationship during one of their days off from filming, leaving a confusing gap in the narrative for viewers.
Producers then apparently intervened and requested the duo to re-enact the breakup, this time in front of the cameras. She told the paper: "Yeah, we have to only talk about home life and random things off camera, and they now separate the boys and girls, because apparently a couple once broke up on one of the 'off days'. "Yeah, apparently they had to do it all over again the next day on camera so the viewers at home could understand what was going on. "At least they could come back with a bit of vim and think of the things that were left unsaid from before.
It wasn't from my series, apparently it was one of the early ones, but yeah." Zara also revealed that a heated argument between her and her then love interest Tom was never aired on the ITV dating show.
