Love Island feud exposed as Chris takes a swipe at his ex Maura’s former boyfriend in brutal dig
The pair have had issues in the past - with Chris being accused of betrayal
LOVE Island fans were left gobsmacked last night as Chris Taylor took a swipe at Curtis Pritchard.
Curtis famously coupled up with Maura Higgins in the latter days of his time on the show and she later went on to date Chris Taylor, who also appeared on their series.
Suggesting there could be beef between them, Chris openly mocked the dancer by copying one of his most iconic moments in the villa.
As the cast woke up after the first night, Chris, 33, mimicked Curtis saying: “I just like to be the guy that gets up and makes everybody their coffee so that everybody is ready for the day.”
Those watching at home couldn’t believe Chris’ rather obvious dig.
One person said: “Why is nobody talking about chris being hilarious and mocking the curtis cup of tea gate.”
A second added: “Omg not Chris throwing Curtis shade with the coffee reference!!! Absolutely hilarious!!”
While a third commented: “Not chris mocking Curtis the barista.”
Curtis had spoken about his love of making coffee before ending things with Amy Hart.
He then moved on to Maura and the pair ended up dating for seven months after the show.
She then moved on to Chris – leaving Curtis fuming, claiming he had been “stabbed in the back”.
He told us at the time: “I feel betrayed by them both — two people I was very close to.
“When I saw the pictures, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel hurt. I was upset. How long has this truly been going on for?
“At the time I was accused of cheating, but I never did. I was always faithful to Maura.
“If you look back on everything — and I am looking back on it now — I’m like, ‘Curtis, all the signs were bloomin’ there, why didn’t you realise then?’
“You just don’t when you are in that situation. You trust what they say. Now her true colours are shown.
“They said they would never ever be together, and here they are.”
Chris and Maura dated for six months and were head over heels.
Maura even spoke about marriage, saying: “I want to be married before I have a baby, so Chris better hurry up and give me that engagement ring, because I’m not getting any younger.”
