Reality TV fans were left stunned when Love Island All Stars contestant Olivia Hawkins accused Grace Jackson of plotting to “do anything to win” the show.
The drama escalated when Mitch Taylor, the show’s resident troublemaker, shared alleged screenshots of Grace’s messages—only to later admit they might be fake. Now, in an exclusive interview, Mitch reveals the truth behind the scandal that rocked the villa.
In an exclusive chat with Goss.ie, Mitch Taylor clarified his role in the viral screenshot controversy. He explained:
“I do a Snapchat review, Love Island reviews on my Snapchat, and it was going really well. I just asked my comment section, I just said, is it real, is it fake?”
He continued:
“I got a lot of people sending me messages and stuff. I would put on my story being innocent, saying ‘oh, it might be fake, what do you guys think?’ And then I’m in news articles for making it up.”
When pressed on whether the messages were real, Mitch admitted:
“I have no idea. I don’t know.”
This aligns with his earlier Snapchat post, where he wrote:
“I don’t know who the receipts are from. I got sent it loads. All I know is Casey and Gabby won.”

The drama began when Olivia Hawkins claimed she had seen texts where Grace Jackson said she would “do anything to win.” Grace denied it, but Mitch amplified the claims by sharing unverified screenshots on Snapchat.
The alleged messages showed Grace writing:
“Aww thank you babe. I will win this time! I’ll do anything to.”
Fans quickly questioned their authenticity, and Mitch later confessed in a live stream:
“I got sent the screen recording, so respectfully stop saying I made them.”
However, some viewers accused him of fabricating the evidence to help his friend Casey O’Gorman win—a claim he denied.
The Fallout: Backlash and DenialsGrace Jackson and Luca Bish, who came in second, maintained that the screenshots were fake. Grace’s rep told The Sun:
“Grace has said several times she hasn’t sent messages of this nature.”
Meanwhile, Mitch faced severe backlash, including death threats. He posted:
“Morning guys, the hate/death threats don’t bother me but please stop sending hate and death threats to Hayley. Keep the beef on me, don’t involve my girlfriend.”
Olivia Hawkins later defended her claims on a podcast, saying:
“Do people really think I would go on national television and lie about something so serious?”.
