The family of Love Island bombshell Kodie Murphy have responded to claims that he allegedly had a girlfriend before heading to Casa Amor.

Love Island series 10 has been nothing short of dramatic so far and the internet was sent into a tailspin earlier this week after a girl claimed she had been dating bombshell Kodie Murphy before he went on the show.

Kodie is one of the 12 new bombshells - out of the six boys and six girls - who have headed into Casa Amor to turn heads.

After he was announced as part of the line-up, a girl who claimed to be his girlfriend sent fans into shock after claiming Kodie had ‘lied’ to her and said he was ‘going away on a work trip’ - only to find out it was Casa Amor.

However, the bombshell’s family have now rushed to his defence and responded to the allegations.

As per this tabloid, Kodie’s sister is said to have jumped in the comments section on TikTok to defend her brother and assure people he was single when he headed on the show.

When asked if it was true that her brother had a girlfriend when he headed to Casa Amor, she firmly said: “No it’s not.”

“I can assure you my brother is one of the good ones,” she added, “Some girls are so desperate for attention.”

This comes after his alleged girlfriend shared a post on Instagram and TikTok calling out Kodie, penning at the time: “As some of you may know Kodie Murphy and I have been exclusive for some time and now I've come to find out this 'work trip' he was going on was actually Casa Amor."

“Couldn't feel more hurt and disrespected, Kodie you had plenty of time to tell me, however I hope you find what you're looking for,” she went on before sarcastically adding, “I wish you luck.”

Casa Amor is nearing the end of its segment and a re-coupling awaits the villa - and it has already been described as ‘the most dramatic’ yet.

Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
