Yahoo News Love Island Aaron's ex opens up about "horrible" treatment during relationship
Love Island bombshell Aaron Waters has been slammed by his former co-star Courtney Stubbs for allegedly being a bully.
The two were briefly coupled up on season three of Love Island Australia back in 2021, and following Aaron's recent arrival on the UK's winter series, Courtney took to TikTok to make some shocking allegations about her former co-star.
"I have never addressed this before because anytime I think about it, it makes me want to bawl my eyes out," the reality star began in a three-part post.

Referring to Aaron's promo for Love Island UK in which he called her his "least favourite" partner, Courtney continued: "This isn't the first time he's dragged me, so it's something I'm quite used to.
"I thought I would just give my side of the story about my experience on Love Island with this guy.
"It was horrible. He bullied me, belittled me, he skin-shamed me, he body-shamed me. He would constantly tell me to f*** off, to shut up, the whole show. And made a personal vendetta against me to make sure every guy felt the same way about me."

Courtney recalled how Aaron would allegedly make comments about her appearance, adding: "I remember to this day, because it stuck with me.
"He said to me, 'I like clean girls, girls. You know, take care of the skin and like skincare and you’re really not into that stuff'. So he was referring to my acne.
"I had really bad acne at this point because I had just started my Roaccutane journey and my skin was purging. So I literally had cystic acne on my face, which I obviously I already felt so insecure about going on TV with my skin like that."
Digital Spy has reached out to Love Island for comment.
Courtney previously opened up about her relationship with Aaron post-Love Island Australia in January 2022 in a YouTube video with Zoe Clish.
In the video, she claimed she and Aaron "definitely don’t hate each other” after a fan asked about where they stood but admitted they "clash a lot". She added: "We’re just naturally not best friends but, like, we're not on bad terms at all."
