Love Island's Alex Bowen throws MAJOR shade at Liam Payne

It’s safe to say Liam Payne’s latest Instagram post didn't go down to well with fans, with some people labeling the former One Direction singer 'cringe' and 'embarrassing'.

Earlier in the week, Liam shared a photo of himself sticking his middle finger up with the caption, 'You can only get jet lag from a jet, the rest of y'all have got plane lag. #Nof---s.' sic

After receiving a number of messages, Liam deleted the post shortly after, but it seems he’s still getting a little bit of stick for it.

And one person who seemed to take a particular dislike to it, was none other than Love Island’s Alex Bowen.

Screenshotting the photo on Twitter, he wrote, 'This kid is f----- lost I don’t get how he’s done well he’s the most average kid I’ve ever seen in my life😂and saying s--- like that then deleting it off his insta… such a biscuit.' sic

Obviously not happy with Alex's comment, 1D fans hit back at the reality star, with one tweeting, 'Everyone’s entitled to opinion but you’ve no right to judge anyone after u had sex on national TV' sic

He also tweeted, 'Arguing with one direction fans has been the highlight of my taxi home 😂 suppose I better take the poster down from my bedroom wall… oh man'. sic
