Her final days in the sun-soaked villa were marred by All Stars alum Liv dropping the messages bombshell.
Grace fiercely denied sending them even though Olivia insisted that she had the “receipts” to back up her claim, with fellow islander Samie Elishi agreeing that she had also seen them.
Fresh out of South Africa, she and Luca went on Made In Chelsea’s Sophie Habboo and co-host Melisa Tattam’s podcast, Wednesdays, and made some shocking revelations about their time in the villa.
Melisa began: “The whole Olivia coming out just and saying ‘I’ve seen these screenshots?’
Grace replied: “Whatever she was trying to do there completely backfired. I felt so humiliated, like publicly humiliated.
“I was sat there trying to defend myself, everybody around the fire pit was nodding like ‘yeah we’ve seen the screenshots’.
“I just felt so embarrassed and I felt because that’s not in my character.”
“All I could do was defend myself with words. I didn’t have my phone, I didn’t have a clue what was going on on the outside.
“Then I’m saying who’s fabricated these screenshots. Who’s got it in for me.”
Luca then revealed how Grace ‘burst into tears’ over the incident, saying: “It wasn’t on camera but at dinner, they keep girls and boys separate I could see she was upset.
“I went over and they (producers) were like please, leave Grace alone and then she burst into tears.
Luca also confessed how Grace had many sleepless nights in the villa because of the text scandal, he said: “She didn’t sleep for three nights.”
“Them three nights the boys and the girls were kept separate so like same sex beds.”
“I was downstairs in the living room and she’d come down saying ‘I can’t sleep and stuff’ so that’s when I started thinking this is getting a bit too much.”
The Love Island final saw the feud between Grace and Olivia escalate further with Olivia doubling down on the seeing the text messages.
Grace continued: “It was really damaging, then it’s backtracking on the final you know girls coming over saying “I’m really sorry, I’ve not seen the screenshots”.
“So don’t sit there and back it saying I’ve seen the screenshots and make me feel ridiculous.
“I felt like I was going insane because I knew I hadn’t said it.
Grace was then asked by host Sophie if the incident had changed her friendships with some of the girls in the villa, to which she replied: “I clearly didn’t have friendships with them.”
