A Love Island star was rushed to hospital on Thursday with a fractured rib.
Bombshell Aaron Waters, 26, shared a snap of his hospital room and an image of his X-ray scan as he revealed the painful news.
It comes after Aaron defended himself against shocking allegations his former co-star Courtney Stubbs made about him in 2023.
The couple were together for a short period of time in the third season of the Australian series in 2021, and after appearing on the UK series, Courtney made some damning claims about him.
In a video she posted to TikTok, Courtney said her experience with Aaron on the show left her wanting to “cry buckets.”
She becomes very emotional when she tells her followers how he ‘disrespected’ her during their time together on the show, claiming he embarrassed her and made fun of her cystic acne.
However, since leaving the Love Island UK villa in South Africa, he has spoken out about the claims, saying it never happened and that he is not a bully.
Aaron even claimed that ITV producers said they would back up his claim; however, no official statement from the station has been released.
In the video, Courtney said: ‘[Aaron] He went on Love Island UK and the first thing he wanted to do in his promotion was drag me.
‘He harassed me, belittled me, skin shamed me, body shamed me. He constantly told me to fuck off. [and] he shut down the whole show and made it his personal vendetta against me to make sure all the boys felt the same way he felt about me.

Speaking to the Where’s Your Head At podcast with Anna McEvoy and Matt Zukowski, Aaron claimed he never bullied his former co-star and never made comments about her body or skin.
He said: ‘The video frustrated me because I didn’t do those things, we just didn’t get on, but I never intimidated you. Do you know what a bully is? The definition of a bully is not not getting along with someone.
‘Saying in my interview that she was my least favorite is not dragging you through the mud, but being honest and being asked questions about my journey and who I was paired with, is not dragging someone through the mud or bullying.
“We just didn’t get along, not everyone gets along with everyone, so it was very like… what the fuck?”
The reality TV star said she repeated her preferences while on the show, such as wanting “a girly girl” and someone who “goes to the gym and takes care of herself.”
Co-host Anna then asked Aaron if perhaps because of these comments, Courtney felt like he was hitting on her and that the whole situation was a “miscommunication.”
He said: “I wouldn’t call it a lack of communication.” I had arguments with Courtney on the show, we never saw eye to eye, that’s Love Island, you argue with people.
“But those are my preferences, I still want a girl who takes care of herself and goes to the gym, but I never told her that.” [I like a girl with clean skin] I would never have said I don’t like a girl because of her skin.’
