Harry's mum Julia also joined his pal in the villa, and they were quick to address his controversial situation with Helena and Shakira.
Writing on social media after the episode, Harry Hugo said: 'The clip that I said to Helena that it would have never worked romantically with her and Harry - they were just great mates on a holiday romance but their banter is the same.
'That's why she'd fit into our wider friendship group (of 8 couples). It 100% wasn't me telling her she'd be a better fit than Shakira. I said the opposite to her face.'
He continued: 'Both Julia and I called Harry out for his behaviour and him being inconsiderate of others' feelings with his actions.'
Harry also told how Shakira has 'banned' Harry from wearing his infamous Speedo swimwear.
He said: 'We joked and laughed with Shakira and her family about Harry's dreadful wardrobe and Speedos. She has since banned him from wearing them.'
Addressing Harry and Shakira's recent reunion, he added: "It was clear spending an hour with them that they are really into each other and I can't wait to see how he tries to make amends."
Shakira and Harry have recoupled after therevealed he was trying to get back close to her despite being with Helena.
And Shakira's mum Sukina revealed it's only her daughter he'll need to make things up to.
Shakira told her mum and sister: "I adore him and I really wish I didn't, that's the problem. It would be easier if I hated him, but I don't."

The star previously faced backlash when she made her debut on the flagship ITV daytime magazine programme. Olivia Attwood's Career History From Monster grid girl and Love Island star to daytime telly panellist and respected documentary maker, Olivia Attwood has made a huge career pivot in recent years... Olivia first started as a Monster grid girl at motorsport events in 2012 when she was 19-years-old, and did it right up until she went into Love Island in 2017. After placing third in the reality show with then-boyfriend Chris Hughes, she starred in their own spin-off series, Chris & Olivia: Crackin' On, in 2018. Later that year, she appeared on Celebs Go Dating and then joined the cast of The Only Way Is Essex in 2019, where she had a number of fiery on-screen rows. In 2020, the reality TV veteran began starring in her own reality series on ITVBe titled Olivia Meets Her Match, which followed her wedding preparations with footballer Bradley Dack. In 2021, the tide started to turn. Olivia made appearances on household shows Lorraine, Tipping Point: Lucky Stars and Loose Women. Then, in 2022, ITV commissioned her for her first ever documentary series. She presented Olivia Attwood: Getting Filthy Rich, which explored women selling sexual content online. In June 2023, ITV commissioned Olivia Marries Her Match and made her a regular guest panellist on Loose Women. Her most recent docu-series, Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection, aired in January this year where she sensitively explored the cosmetic industry. Her reality background didn't go down well with some of the more traditionalist viewers, who vowed to switch off. Olivia clapped back at the trolls who shared their dismay with her appointment in the role, as she insisted "there's much more to me." Her colleague Josie Gibson, 40, who is a regular presenter on This Morning, later defended Olivia, saying she's 'brilliant' in the role. She told The Sun: "Oh my God she's brilliant. It's brilliant she gets to do this and I think she's really good. Yeah, really good. Those who know me understand the hard work I've put in to get where I am today. Olivia Attwood "Honestly, you get some backlash like that in this industry and I really don't know why people do it." The former Big Brother star added: "I'll never understand why people do it, you know. To me, I've always loved to see people do well and I genuinely love it. "I think Olivia is brilliant in the role." 10 Olivia Attwood was also the face for an exclusive VIP event for Boots Opticians Credit: 10 Olivia danced with her co-host Dermot O'Leary in a video captured by her entourage Credit: 10 She gave her 2.4million fans a sneak peak her working life Credit: 10 She's also been busy getting new episodes together for her reality show, Bad Boyfriends Credit: 10 The personality delighted meeting fans on the set of Ebay Live's Love Island event Credit: 10 Olivia still managed to get some personal time in with her husband Credit:

Pope makes rock-star entrance by helicopter for open-air prayer vigil with a million screaming pilgrims in Rome
Pope Leo XIV made a rock-star helicopter entrance to an open-air prayer vigil in Rome where over a million pilgrims gathered to see him. Worshippers began crying and cheering when the white military helicopter descended over the vigil, where young worshippers from 146 countries assembled as part of a 'Jubilee of Youth'. After entering on his classic popemobile on Sunday, the first American pope, 69, smiled and waved to the screaming crowds who had gathered to hear the Pope speak at the event. 'Aspire to great things, to holiness, wherever you are. Do not settle for less,' Pope Leo told the crowd. The week-long 'Jubilee of Youth' - a highlight of the Jubilee holy year - was an enormous undertaking for the Vatican, with a half a million young pilgrims in Rome for most of the week. On Saturday night, before a twilight vigil led by the pope, organisers said there were 800,000 people in the vast, open-air space on Rome's eastern outskirts, and on Sunday the Vatican said that number had grown to one million. Most of them spent the night in tents, in sleeping bags or on mats in anticipation of Sunday's mass. The Pope was to lead the vigil from a massive stage with a golden arch and towering cross dominating the vast open area - which at over 500,000 square metres was the size of around 70 football fields. Among the throngs of devotees was New Yorker Christofer Delano, who said he was 'so happy to see Pope Leo' but stunned by the crowds. 'I didn't expect to see all these people. I knew there was going to be a lot of people - I didn't know it was going to be this many,' he told AFP. Also among them was French pilgrim Julie Mortier, 18, whose voice was hoarse from singing and screaming for hours. 'We're too happy to be here! Seeing the pope, that's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!' she told the news agency. In his homily, the first US pope and former missionary encouraged the gathered youth to 'spread your enthusiasm and the witness of your faith to everyone you meet!' The Vatican has sought to highlight pilgrims who travelled to Rome from war-torn regions, and Leo said in his Angelus prayer: 'We are closer than ever to young people who suffer the most serious evils which are caused by other human beings.' 'We are with the young people of Gaza. We are with the young people of Ukraine, with those of every land bloodied by war,' said the 69-year-old pontiff. 'My young brothers and sisters, you are the sign that a different world is possible, a world of fraternity and friendship where conflicts are not resolved with weapons but with dialogue.' The colourful event was accompanied by music from a choir, and about 450 bishops and 700 priests, all in green robes. A towering cross dominated the massive golden arch covering the stage where the pope led mass. Italian pilgrim Tommaso Benedetti said the pope had passed his 'first test' in the eyes of young people during the youth jubilee. The week-long 'Jubilee of Youth' - a highlight of the Jubilee holy year - was an enormous undertaking for the Vatican, with a half a million young pilgrims in Rome for most of the week 'We feel quite satisfied. There were many references to peace, which is a theme that is very close to our hearts as young people,' Benedetti told AFP. The festive atmosphere reached a peak Saturday ahead of the vigil presided over by Leo, with Italian broadcaster Rai dubbing it a Catholic 'Woodstock'. Hundreds of thousands camped out at the dusty venue, strumming guitars or singing, as music blasted from the stage where a series of religious bands entertained the crowds. Leo was greeted with deafening screams and applause after his arrival by helicopter and as he toured the grounds in his popemobile, with many people running to catch a better glimpse of the new pope. Roads leading to the Tor Vegata venue, about a 40 minute drive from the centre of Rome, were packed, making Leo's choice of helicopter transportation on both Saturday and Sunday more efficient. British student Andy Hewellyn sat in front of a huge video screen - a prime spot, as he could not even see the stage far away. 'I'm so happy to be here, even if I'm a bit far from the pope. I knew what to expect!' he told AFP. 'The main thing is that we're all together.' The youth pilgrimage came about three months after the start of Leo's papacy and 25 years after John Paul II organised the last such youth gathering in Rome. It was announced by Pope Francis during World Youth Day in Lisbon in 2023. Throughout the week, attendees have participated in various Church-planned events, such as confession at Circus Maximus, one of Rome's top tourist spots. Yesterday, approximately 1,000 priests were on hand, with 200 white gazebos serving as makeshift confessionals lining the hippodrome where chariot races were once held in Ancient Rome. Amid tight security, more than 4,300 volunteers worked the event to welcome the young pilgrims, along with over 1,000 police, organisers said. The Church planned a series of events for the young pilgrims over the course of the week, including turning the Circus Maximus - where chariot races were held in ancient Rome - into an open-air confessional.
