Frosty: Love Island’s Charlie Frederik and Hayley Hughes’ distaste for one another has gone up a gear after they refused to sit on the same couch as one another on Monday’s Lorraine
Presenter Lorraine Kelly announced before their appearance that the pair would be interviewed separately as their animosity for one another has grown in the aftermath of Sunday night’s fallout.
Conducting separate interviews, model Charlie Frederik was first to come out and chat with the Scottish host.
The reality star admitted he was ‘gutted’ to be off the Island and admitted things were still ‘frosty’ between him and the Liverpudlian model, who waited in the wings.
He said: ‘We’re fine, we’re just frosty cause I’m a bit gutted to be honest. You just want to get your own piece across.

‘I’m bitter and angry, not to her, I can’t hold a grudge. It is what is is. I feel like I’ve been hard done by and my chance has been taken away from me. It was so much fun, I’m missing it.
Visibly sensing the tension, Lorraine jokingly told Charlie to ‘go away’ so she could chat to Hayley.
The blond reality star said ‘so awkward’ as he walked out of the studio and Hayley appeared from the other side.
Hayley argued that she wasn’t going to force herself into going from man to man to stay on the ITV2 series and addressed his claims that she was ‘cold’.

While one viewer praised presenter Lorraine for putting up with the petty behaviour: ‘Wowzers that was awkward, poor Lorraine. I can just see Hayley in Big Brother’.
The pair’s awkward encounter comes after they came face to face during Love Island spin-off show Aftersun on Sunday evening.
Fans of the programme threw their support behind Charlie as he told Hayley he was booted from the island because of her, saying ‘she wasn’t liked as a person’.
Hayley hit out at Charlie, saying she didn’t think he would still be in the villa because he was competing in the vote against the nation’s new sweetheart, Dr Alex.
Team Charlie: Fans of the show threw their support behind Charlie as he told Hayley he wouldn’t have been dumped from the island if it wasn’t for her, because ‘she wasn’t liked as a person’
He furiously quipped back: ‘You weren’t liked.’ Caroline quickly stepped in, shouting ‘Charlie!’ at his remark, as if she were trying to defuse the tense situation.
Determined to stand her ground, Hayley added: ‘You can’t be so certain you wouldn’t be in the bottom two when you’re up against Alex! So have a little think on that one…’
But Charlie sniped back: ‘I wouldn’t have been in the bottom two if I was with someone else…’
Despite his cutting words during the frosty exchange, many viewers sided with the 23-year-old model who agreed that Hayley ‘wasn’t well liked’.
Awkward! In a Twitter snap posed by a fan, Charlie and Hayley could be seen barely mustering a word as they remained glued to their phones, as they waited to fly back to the UK
