It’s barely a week since the Love Island UK contestants returned home following the season’s finale, and exes Felipe and Courtney are already caught up in a heated exchange.

The twosome, who enjoyed a brief romance during their eight weeks on the reality show, has raised questions about the genuineness of their onscreen affection thanks to their ongoing drama. This stemmed from Courtney’s claims that she never regretted the end of their romance as they shared a toxic dynamic. The revelation, which came following the Brazilian model’s departure from the villa, did not sit well with Felipe, who has since responded in his own coin.

Love Island’s Felipe Gomes Claps Back At Courtney Boerner Over “Toxic” Relationship Claims

In a new interview with Page Six, the reality star addressed Courtney’s claims, implying they held no truth. The Love Island icon expressed grievances that his former flame would badmouth their relationship right after his exit, despite acting like things were cool between them. He shared:

Despite his grievances, Felipe insists he has no intention of gearing off a drama with his ex, who has since moved on with new bombshell Bryce Fins. The reality star went on to discuss how quickly Courtney’s head turned following Bryce’s arrival at the villa, ultimately leading to their breakup. According to him, he understood that feelings could change at any point for anyone. Hence, he nursed no hard feelings over the turn of events.

Felipe Believes Their Relationship Was Never One-Sided

Courtney Boerner also claimed that throughout their whirlwind romance on Love Island UK, they shared a one-sided relationship. The 24-year-old disclosed that she always struggled through conversations with him. She went on to accuse her ex-boyfriend of never attempting to know her on a deeper level during their brief fling. However, Felipe believes she could not be further from the truth.

According to him, his relationship with the stylist never seemed one-sided, as viewers could affirm from their wild on-screen chemistry. Admittedly, the demanding dating process on the show left him overwhelmed on occasions, but he strived to put in his best. He continued:

As it turned out, the right time never came, as Courtney decided to move on fast, dumping Felipe. Meanwhile, the model remains hopeful the perfect relationship awaits him despite the show’s disappointing ending for him.
