LOVE Island's Olivia Buckland has hit back at haters that have accused her of photoshopping her bikini bod – and posted a new snap on her last day of holiday.

Olivia has been holidaying in Marbella with her girl friends just days after being away on another shoot where she got raunchy in a pool with boyfriend Alex Bowen during his calendar shoot.

Yet as she posted pictures of her different swimming costumes, Olivia was faced with a barrage of questions after posting one bikini pic showing off her tiny waist and curvy figure.

The light-hearted snap lead some fans to believe she had photoshopped the pic in order to look thinner and that her hourglass shape made her look 'like Barbie'.

However, the tattooed beauty insisted that she would take the criticism as a 'compliment' and that she had just lost weight since leaving the ITV2 villa.

In a statement released on Twitter: "I’m not posting this to try and justify anything, however I feel strongly about being honest and truthful with my fans and followers and hate to think you think I’m lying to you."

Since leaving Love Island, Olivia and Alex have made it clear that it wasn't just a showmance and they are in it for the long haul, with Alex preparing to move from Birmingham to live closer to his love in Essex.

In another photo posted today, Alex looked to be getting on famously with her dad as they posed for a selfie together.

Olivia wrote that the pic "made her heart melt".

Touched by the support she has received since leaving the show, she wrote: “My life has done a 360 and I cannot be more appreciative for what I have achieved and also the opportunities that have now been presented to me.

“All you lovely gals and guys who support me, you don’t understand how much I truly love reading your comments and they always make everything worthwhile."
