LOVE LOST
Jake Cornish hits out at Love Island for forcing him to share a bed with ex Liberty – saying he was in pain ALL NIGHT
The star made the decision to leave the villa just days after entering and discovering Liberty was also there
LOVE Island star Jake Cornish has revealed he slept in a full tracksuit on the All Stars show while sharing a bed with ex Liberty Poole.
The ITV2 dating show contestant returned for a second shot at love last week - but walked out the villa days after he was paired up with Liberty, 24.

Jake, 26, split from the blonde bombshell at the end of the 2021 series and they hadn't seen each other since.
But in a shock twist, show bosses reunited the pair on the All Stars show, with the public voting to put them together as a couple.
And it meant that Jake had to share a bed with Liberty before leaving - so he kept his clothes firmly on at night.
He said: "I didn't like sharing a bed, it felt weird, it felt awkward.

"That's why I went to bed with a tracksuit on and my left arm was dead for two or three nights because I slept on my left side the whole time.
“I've never shared a bed with my ex. I didn’t want to give off any signs or anything.
"It was just that the ship had sailed - I didn't want to be in a couple with her so it was just pointless."
After leaving the villa, Jake hit out that Liberty seemed "sour" and "bitter", suggesting she tried to cast him as the villain.

He explained: "I felt like it was a bit sour. Like, 'Oh here he is. Let’s go at him again.'
“In reality I've grown up, I've matured in two years.
“So when it was them faces, and the comments of like ‘he gives me the ick’, I took on the chin, I’m not going to cry about it.
“Whereas obviously the conversation we had, she said, ‘I feel like you're ignoring me’ - it was just the way she come into the conversation, was just a bit bitter.”
Love Island All Stars continues at 9pm on ITV2
