ROGUE Love Island hunk Harry Cooksley has been labelled a 'serial sh**ger' by an ex who claims he was involved with TWELVE girls in the run-up to the show.
The gold dealer and semi-pro footballer, 30, had the quickest Hideaway sleepover ever after he spent the night with air hostess Helena Ford just 56 hours into the ITV2 series — even though they were not coupled up.

Ahead of Monday night's final, in which Harry is set to feature, one stunning ex told The Sun on Sunday she was 'not shocked' by his daring move.
The woman, who did not want to be named, added that she has been contacted by 'about 12 women' over social media who, like her, thought they were in a relationship with Harry at different times over the past year.
She also revealed that his most recent former flame, Emma Munro — who sensationally joined the villa as a bombshell four weeks into the series — still has her clothes in his wardrobe at home despite their break-up and him bringing other girls back there.
'Badly treated'
The ex, a model in her 20s, said: 'I am actually distraught about it all. I have been really struggling to get through this.
'I thought we were serious and now I cannot get over how much he can do this to girls and get away with it.
He is a serial sh**ger and the way he has treated me and others is disgusting
The ex
'The amount of women he has hurt is unbelievable.
'We have all linked up over social media and there are just more and more coming forward to say how badly they've been treated.
'A few of us were led to believe we were in exclusive relationships with him.
'Others he was just dating or hooking up with casually. It's disgusting.'
She added: 'I am really worried about the women currently on the show.
Love Island star Harry's shock comment to Shakira revealed - just hours after going exclusive with Helena
'He is a serial sh**ger and the way he has treated me and others is disgusting.
'I just really hope he doesn't get the platform to be on Love Island until the final.
'He doesn't deserve it.'
When it was revealed in June that Harry was going to be in the villa, some women took to social media to express their shock.
One, Emilia Clark, said: 'He liked me on [dating app] Hinge two weeks ago.'
Another with the name fitbritbill said: 'Harry took my sister-in-law out for a date about eight weeks ago and couldn't pay for it.
'Let's hope they don't charge for drinks in the villa — haha.'
One more, under the name Lcy_brooks, wrote: 'Do we know who has access to Harry's online banking so he can pay my friend back for the drinks he owes her from their date.'
'Daisyflolamb' added: 'That's funny because he was also exclusively dating my friend for the past seven months. Someone give Harry a calculator cos the math ain't mathing???'
Another alleged he had split with their pal days before Love Island started, claiming it was because he was going to Bali.
They said: 'Don't forget they broke up on Wednesday & he told her he was going to BALI.'
One of Emma Munro's friends claimed that her clothes are still hanging in the wardrobe at his home.
They said: 'Her whole side of the wardrobe is still full, yet he has girls in her bed.'

She also flagged this to the ex-girlfriend, who told us.
Meanwhile, on the show, viewers first saw Harry get close to model Shakira Khan, 22, as they cuddled and kissed on camera.
But then, within 24 hours, he disappeared into the Hideaway with blonde air hostess Helena, 29.
The Hideaway lets couples share a bed, with no one else in the same room, unlike in the rest of the villa.
Afterwards, the pair insisted they had shared just a 'PG kiss' and a cuddle.
Even then, Harry was still telling others that he felt something for Shakira and that he thought she had 'more substance' than Helena, who he had just coupled up with.
He also flirted heavily with the villa's new arrival, Angel Swift, telling her: 'I'm very attracted to you.'
Eventually, all the girls turned on Harry, accusing him of messing with Helena's feelings after he dumped her.
But he did not appear put off as this week he re-coupled with Shakira.
And the pair have now been shown sharing a bed, kissing and cuddling together.
On Tuesday's show, Harry apologised to Helena's parents on the segment where contestants' families are briefly brought into the villa to see their loved ones.
Can that be seen as progress?
It might be the best we can hope for.

Watch the moment Love Island's Harrison tells Lauren he loves her – before making awkward u-turn
LOVE Island's Harrison tells Lauren he loves her before he makes an awkward u-turn. The interaction had fans cringing and left questioning where the pair's relationship really stands. 6 6 6 The Love Island cast returned to Mallorca this week to celebrate the show's thrilling finale, with the boys and girls staying in separate villas. Footballer Harrison went live on TikTok to chat with his fellow Islanders — including new beau, Lauren. Just as the livestream was wrapping up Harrison told Lauren 'Love you bye' with Lauren replying the same. Not long after Harrison was joined by fellow Islander Ben, when he was asked by a fan if he was still with Lauren. The reality star replied: 'I am very much with Lauren.' 'Man's a lover,' Ben then chimed. Before Harrison swiftly replied: 'Now Love's a bit strong but I am with her for sure.' The u-turn had fans flooding the comments of clips of the stream reuploaded to social media, one user said: 'He just continues to embarrass her omfs.' ''Loves a bit strong but I am with her' is he serious right now ?' added another. 'He does not like her,' chimed a third. Watch as Love Island winner Toni takes final swipe at villa ex Harrison before winning £50k 'The fact that he had to say 'love is a bit strong' really irks me.. he could have just moved over that but he continues being disrespectful to Lauren,' commented a fourth. Earlier in the series, viewers watched Lauren be dumped from the villa in a brutal twist. She begged Harrison to leave alongside her - but he wasn't sure and decided to sleep on it. However, just a day later, he decided to voluntarily walk away from the villa. After leaving the villa, Harrison said his family would play a big part in whether he and Lauren would progress. Speaking on the Love Island: Morning After podcast, Harrison said: "I feel like we want to get to know each other a little bit more away from the villa. "Obviously the villa's a very secluded environment it's different on the outside so it's nice to get to know each other, go on a few dates without cameras and microphones." Looking cosy beside Lauren, he continued: "For me it was a big thing about her meeting my family before I made anything official. But I left the villa for Lauren and I do think a lot of her. I feel like we'll be boyfriend and girlfriend soon, no doubt." An extra spanner in the works is the fact Harrison is based in Miami, and he isn't sure if he wants to return to the UK permanently just yet. 6 6 6

Love Island viewing figures revealed for final as ITV2 show receives ratings boost
The viewing figures for the latest series of Love Island have been revealed, with the ITV2 reality competition's final being watched by an impressive number of fans The viewing figures for the final of the latest series of Love Island have been revealed. The ITV2 reality dating show wrapped up its latest outing on Monday night when Toni Laties and Cach Mercer were voted the nation's favourite couple and walked off with the £50,000 prize. And on Tuesday, it was revealed that the grand finale had pulled in 1.3million viewers, up 300,000 from the All Stars spin-off that aired earlier this year. Along with series 10 in 2023, the figure now holds the joint-highest position since series eight, which was won by Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu in 2022, and pulled in a solid three million viewers. The latest series has seen the highest number of complaints to Ofcom since the 2022 series. A total of 9,339 complaints were made to the broadcasting regulator in this vein whilst a further 298 were made about the way Blu spoke to Toni. Elsewhere, there were 55 complaints about Megan returning to the villa following her democratic dumping and a further 29 complaints expressed their concern for Harry following his breakup with Helena as he opened up about his feelings for Shakira. It comes after Harry's weird fetish on the show had fans left feeling disgusted for a very specific reason. One Islander to face criticism from viewers was Harrison, who quit the series three weeks before the final. Amid his stint on Love Island, a spokesperson for the women's charity issued a statement to the Tab, which included mention of women being "lied to, slut-shamed and manipulated, as well as laughed at behind their backs" during their time on the show. Harrison then addressed the "backlash" in an interview with the Daily Mail, saying he has found it "hard to digest". He told the outlet: "I would disagree with a lot of it in terms of my respect for women, I do respect women." He said that the "worst" reaction had been from Women's Aid. He said: "I know myself and the girls on the show too, Toni said she knows I'm not a bad person, just went about situations in the wrong way, but the Women's Aid statement wasn't nice ... it's not nice coming out of the villa to my mum upset by that so I would say that's been the hardest." Harrison said that he is "sorry" to the women that he has "hurt," before saying that he "got it wrong". He added that the "back and forth" between his connections with Lauren and Toni ended up causing "more harm" than he intended. He however said that it wasn't "an ego thing". The former islander said he isn't proud of the way he handled things in the villa and won't "make excuses". Harrison said that he just wants to "own it" and assured: "If people can give me the space to grow from it, I will do everything I can to be better, and that's the only thing I can do."

Princess Andre TV show start date: when does The Princess Diaries air?
Princess Andre, the daughter of Peter Andre and Katie Price, is stepping into the limelight herself with her own show and it is due to start airing on ITVX very soon Princess Andre was born into the world of celebrity as the daughter of showbiz legends Katie Price and Peter Andre. But now, she's stepping into the limelight in her own right with her own show The Princess Diaries. The starlet, who recently celebrated her 18th birthday, is set to open up about how her parents' estranged relationship has affected her through her childhood and teenage years amongst other things when the series goes to air. The first episode will air on Sunday 10 August at 9pm on ITV2, and viewers who are so captured by the new series will be able to watch the whole thing as a boxset on ITVX as well. And in the new series, the teenager has shared things haven't always been easy for her. In the first episode, Princess opened up about why she felt she could never speak to her dad, Peter, 52, about her mum following their bitter split and the fact they haven't spoken in years. Peter and Katie famously met when they competed on I'm A Me Out Of Here! in 2004. Within a year, they married and had Junior, 20, in June 2005. It comes after her mum Katie Price worried fans with appearance in family photo after explaining weight loss. Princess followed in 2007 but the couple eventually called it quits in 2009 after four years of marriage. These days, Peter is married to Emily Andre and has Theo, Amelia and Arabella with her whilst Katie has Jett and Bunny with Kieran Hayler, and was already mum to Harvey, 23, with Dwight Yorke by the time she met Peter. Princess has addressed traumatic memories of her glamour model mum Katie's divorce from Pete as well as her other very public relationships In a candid confession on the series, its title a reference to the 2001 Disney classic starring Anne Hathaway and the young adult novel of the same name, Princess said: "I did have a counsellor, I do still see her every now and then. "But I don't feel like I can really talk, so I just write everything down in my notes. I do wish, like, I could have had a more happier childhood. In the sense of like, I had so many things on my plate at a young age." Princess said she wishes she "wasn't like that" and that she had things lingering at the back of her mind while being very young. She did acknowledge "good times" in her childhood and discussed Katie's split from Kieran Hayler when she was 10 years old. Katie and Kieran were married for eight years but had a rocky relationship, with accusations of infidelity. They officially split in May 2018 but were married from 2013 to 2021, and Katie is now in a relationship with former Married At First Sight star JJ Slater. However, Princess admitted when speaking of her mum's previous breakup: "My mum, obviously being heartbroken, didn't deal with that in the best way, she went through a very, very dark time, which is understandable," Princess shared. Revealing how the tough time also had an impact on her, she added: "Which is hard for me because I was around adulty things that kids should never see and I think as well, when we needed our mum there, she wasn't emotionally able to be there because she had so much of her own problems going on." She heartbreakingly shared how she would return from school early to "get into bed and cry". Princess said she is close to her dad Pete, but would never speak to him about her pain. The model confessed she has "always grown up knowing my mum and dad don't like each other." Princess added: "I wouldn't say I'm fully, fully recovered from it but mum is such a different person and if you put her now to back then, she's genuinely really fixed herself."
