During her first stint on Love Island, London girlie Samie Elishi made it to the final alongside Tom Clare and made a best friend in the form of Claudia Fogarty.

The duo were close pals in the South African villa with their friendship continuing once they entered the real world; they enjoyed countless double dates with Tom and his BFF Casey O'Gorman, who Claudia shared a flirty fling with.

However, two years later and the bombshell besties have not only unfollowed each on social media but it looks as though any sort of connection they had is long gone.

Samie recently took part in the second season of Love Island: All Stars where she lasted just five days after clashing with Grace Jackson over Luca Bish and failing to find a spark with anyone.

Once her time on All Stars was over, the contestant found herself caught up in some major dramz after the whole Olivia Hawkins x Grace Jackson x Joey Essex x 'Messy' Mitch Taylor 'anything to win' DM fiasco.

Sorry, but if you don't know what we are on about, please Google it. We simply do not have the energy/time/will power/word count to explain what went down and, plus, does anyone really know?

Anyway, Samie ended up chatting to season 7 winners Millie Court and Liam Reardon on their podcast, 'Liam + Millie', about the chaos that followed and she also touched on what happened between her and former BFFL, Claudia.

Simply put, Millie's Welsh fancy man Liam, asked Samie, 'Are you still friends with Claudia?'

Cue a cringe AF five second silence where Millie glances at Liam, Samie glances at Millie and they all sit there awkwardly like they're in the first ever series of TOWIE.

Samie casually replied, 'No.'

Liam, the legend that he is, did his best to ignore the animosity and even tried his luck with Samie as he quizzed her on the fall-out.

'Would you like to elaborate or no?'

'No,' Samie immediately confirmed, but that wasn't enough for Liam who tried his luck just one more time.

'But you're not friends, no?'

If looks could kill, Millie would be single and Samie would be doing time as she repeated...

'No.'

Neither Claudia or Samie has ever spoken about what happened between and judging by Samie's one-word answers here we can't imagine she will be opening up on the feud anytime soon.
