Love Island star Julia Majchrzak has accused Lorenzo Alessi of leaving her “embarrassed” with his post-villa antics during another car-crash interview for the winners.
Appearing on Capital FM in what should have been an upbeat catch-up with the lovebirds, Julia said “it wasn’t funny” as she was reminded of her partner liking the photos of models on social media after leaving the villa.
The pair had a disastrous first interview on This Morning, where it was revealed that they had last seen each other at the airport after flying back from Majorca. Lorenzo claimed he had been too “busy” to arrange a date with Julia.
After the tense scenes, the duo appeared on Capital XTRA on Wednesday, where the Polish bombshell continued to hit out Lorenzo’s ‘disrespectful’ behaviour.
When they were asked about Lorenzo’s social media ‘like-spree’, Julia said: “Guys, this is not funny. He’s already embarrassed me online… He had no time to arrange a date in five days, but was sat in bed liking other girls’ Instagram pictures.”
Lorenzo admitted that he had messed up and was still “learning what is acceptable”. But, the winner, who has been called the ‘King of Situationships’ by some fans, also reminded people that he and Julia were still early on in their relationship. He said: “This is the thing. I feel like why I didn’t want to rush things in the villa… We’re not running around getting married tomorrow. I’m learning how to be in a committed relationship, and I’m learning what is acceptable and what is not.
“To be 100% honest, it was pure naivety. I did not think it would be picked up by the press… These are now real-world things that we can experience together.”
Julia then looked at her phone to see if he had liked her pictures as well as those of models, and he had not. “Did you even have time to like my photos?” she asked. “Guess what guys, he’s not under my Instagram!”
Lorenzo argued that Julia’s posts simply hadn’t turned up on his feed yet. This came only a day after Julia confronted Lorenzo live on TV. When This Morning host Josie Gibson asked the couple if they had said they loved each other yet, they both answered “no”. Lorenzo added: “It’s going that way. The feelings are developing, everything is in the right position, everything is moving in the right direction…so I feel like give it some time.”
When asked if she felt the same way, Julia turned to her partner and asked him why they hadn’t been on a date: “Well, where’s the date? Where’s the date Lorenzo?”
He immediately answered: “The date is coming. I’ve been busy.” But this wasn’t good enough for Julia who said it had “been five days” and she was “still waiting”.
Amid their awkward interviews, fans on TikTok have also claimed that Lorenzo was saving their videos about him – particularly edits of him and Jasmine Muller. The pair were together at the start of the show and remained friends, but many fans wanted them to end up back together and made videos about the two of them being in love.
One fan who had made a video saying Lorenzo should “go get your Princess Jasmine” shared a screenshot of her notifications, where it said that Lorenzo had saved her video. She said over the top: “Lorenzo, I’m taking your phone away cause this is so funny but actually insane.”
