Kelly Brook has slammed Love Island host Caroline Flack for supposedly copying her life

But they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right Caz?

The comments came on Kelly’s radio show, when Kelly called Caroline weird for her recent moves in her career and personal life.

“I can’t believe she’s doing Love Island and dating Danny Cipriani,” she told listeners.

“I was like, ‘Is she just following my life or something?’ Hang on, I was the first host of Love Island, then I dated Danny. It’s like, what’s next?

“Is she going to come and start hosting this show next? I don’t know if she’s still dating [Danny], but when I look at stuff like that I’m like, ‘This is just weird. It’s just weird.’”

Prince Harry

Er, what??Caz and His Royal Highness Prince Harry were first linked in 2009 when they were introduced by a mutual friend. Writing in her autobiography, Storm in a C Cup, she wrote, "To meet a prince is so unlikely, it would be weird not to acknowledge it. However, once the story got out, that was it. We had to stop seeing each other. I was no longer Caroline Flack, TV presenter, I was Caroline Flack, Prince Harry's bit of rough."

Harry Styles

Who could forget this shock romance?Harry and Caz first hooked up a year after he came second on X Factor with band One Direction, but because of the age gap, they wanted to keep their relationship a secret.Caroline wrote, "I already knew that he had a crush on me, he's made it pretty obvious as he's said it in magazines and said it to friends. I've never felt I was much older than Harry. I still feel 18 and I probably act that way half the time. Although it was just a bit of fun we decided it was best to keep it to ourselves as we were both working for Simon Cowell."It began to go wrong when he was pictured coming out of my house one morning," she continued. "And that was that. In the street people started shouting 'paedophile' at me in the street and 'pervert'."

Kelly hosted the first ever series of Love Island in 2005, back when it was a celebrity dating show, but was axed the following year and replaced by Ferne Cotton.

The initial incarnation of the show ran for just two series, before it was revived in 2015 for civilian daters – becoming easily one of the most popular shows on TV.

“The comments just seemed needlessly catty and unpleasant,” a source told The Sun.

“It’s well known that Kelly was sacked by Celebrity Love Island after the first series and replaced by Fearne Cotton.

“Caroline has hosted the show for five years and ITV have seen the ratings increase every year.”

Meanwhile, things are hotting up in the Love Island villa as the love triangle between Joe Garrat, Lucie Donlan and Tommy Fury looks set to take on a more quadrilateral element.

Thursday night’s episode ended on a cliffhanger as bombshell Molly-Mae Hague waited in the hot tub for her date with Tommy.

Love Island continues on weeknights and Sundays at 9pm on ITV2.
