LOVE Island star Mal Nicol has taken a swipe at Sammy Root – saying he “backtracked” and should have “owned” his behaviour.
Edinburgh beauty Mal caught the eye of Sammy when she entered the villa as a bombshell and he quickly told her that he “had more feelings for her in two days” that he had for Jess Harding in two weeks.
The comment was revealed during an explosive Movie Night, leaving blonde babe Jess in tears.
Mal has now called her former flame out for his actions – saying he should have owned it rather than brush it off as a bit of “banter”.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun: “I have absolutely no regrets, I was true to myself, I was me. I couldn’t ask for a better experience, I was authentic.
