Love Island's Tommy Fury's ex has accused him of lying about how long he's been single for, after the boxer said he'd been a free agent for "eight to ten months".

The 20-year-old contestant was one of the two late arrivals to the line-up alongside Curtis Pritchard in last night's series five premiere.

Before entering the villa, Tommy claimed he'd been single for eight to ten months, but now his ex-girlfriend of two years, Millie Roberts, is disputing his words, saying they were still together in February, just four months ago.

Taking to Instagram, the 22-year-old shared an image of the former couple, dated 19th February 2019. Beside it she wrote: "Didn't realise Feb-March was 8-10 months ago? I know your not the best at math but this is no excuse [sic]."

Adding: "It's mad what fame and money can do to people try and act like the whole relationship was nothing. But okay Tommy you do you."

In an interview with OK! Magazine before he entered the villa, Tommy said: "I've been single now for about 8-10 months. But like I say, it was my first relationship. We all have first girlfriends."

Explaining the reason for their break-up, he said: "It just fizzled out. I can't say a bad word about the girl, but as far as I'm concerned, it just fizzled out.

"And I'm very honest with my feelings so I approached her and said, 'listen I'm not really feeling it anymore. You're a great girl but as far as a relationship is concerned I can't really go 100 per cent in it.'

"And that's just the way it was to be honest, nothing more nothing less. Just a first relationship. Life experience - that was it really."

Previously, Millie has claimed that Tommy dumped her to go on Love Island, after he 'suggested they split the £200,000 contestant fee'.

"Going on this show is supposedly against everything he claimed to stand for. He wouldn't even like me watching the programme and would say the girls were disgusting because of their lip fillers and Botox. He hates all that," Millie told the Star on Sunday when the line-up was revealed last month.

"When we were together, he wouldn't want me wearing make-up, short skirts or dresses or anything low-cut that showed any kind of cleavage. He's very strict about that sort of thing."

A teaser from tonight's episode (Tuesday, 4th June) sees Tommy make a play for Lucie, who is currently coupled up with Joe.

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2.
