Kady McDermott's involvement in WORST row of Love Island history as she rejoins show

Love Island legend Kady McDermott's bombshell return left jaws on the floor last night as fans revelled in the chaos she'd inevitably bring with her.

Having appeared back on the dating show's explosive second series, which is renowned for catapulting the show into the limelight, Kady became embroiled in a string of dramas.

As well as coupling up with Scott Thomas - one-third of the famous Thomas brothers - she made history during her furious row with Malia Arkian, which led to security intervening.

Kady, who later finished in third place, was visibly upset after bombshell Malia entered the villa and immediately went on a date with Scott.

The argument erupted after Kady accidentally spilled her drink, with some wine landing on the singer-songwriter's leg.

Despite Kady insisting it wasn't intentional, Malia accused her of spilling the drink on purpose as revenge for going on a date with Scott, and the altercation soon became physical.

Love Island bosses had removed Malia from the villa shortly after the brawl - making her the first contestant to last less than 24 hours in the villa - but didn’t air any scenes from the fight at the time.

Viewers saw the women screaming at each other, but any fracas between the two was scrapped.

However, Kady later tweeted footage from the fight, which showed Malia calling her a “f***ing b***h”, and told her followers on Twitter she had been left with a bloody nose.

“She punched me in the nose after and gave me a nose bleed but they didn’t show it as too graphic," Kady wrote.

In the clip, the make-up artists can be heard screaming at Malia: “I swear to God, if you want to get rowdy…that’s a f***ing joke. Do you honestly think I’d waste my wine over you? It was a f***ing accident."

Malia is then seen lunging towards Kady, forcing members of the villa's security team - as well as some of the boys - to intervene.

She was removed from the villa after a meeting with producers, and was flown back to the UK.

Following her short stint, Malia said she was hauled in front of Love Island bosses who reviewed footage of the fight.

"I was distraught and devastated. I was terrified about what people would be thinking. ITV have the final say on whether you leave, and they decided that I wouldn’t be let back," she explained to Closer.

During Thursday’s episode, fans were stunned to see Kady returning as a bombshell addition to the villa, with many keen to see what she'll do next.

This time around, the 27-year-old said she wanted to redeem herself after her explosive appearance in 2016, and assured viewers she had matured since her

"I think I’m known from season 2 for being so chaotic. People always ask, ‘Do you have regrets?’ expecting me to say yes, but I was so true to myself and I was 100% authentic,” Kady explained.

“I’ll still be like that now, but seven years on, I am more mature. I’m still the fiery pocket rocket but I know what I want and what I don’t want,” she added.
