Love is Blind star Cole Barnett has posted a TikTok video seemingly in response to the latest episodes of the hit show, which aired a scene between himself and Zanab in which she had previously accused him of judging her eating habits - only for the scene to reveal that he was concerned over her lack of eating, and had even offered to make her lunch earlier that day.

Sharing himself miming along to a popular quote on the social media platform, Cole mouthed: "Am I the drama? I don’t think I’m the drama. Maybe I am. Am I the villain? I don’t think I’m the villain." His followers were quick to comment, with one writing: "No babe Zanab was DEFINITELY the drama and the villain," while another added: "I’m team Cole on this one, Zanab played victim a little too much."

Others named the other men in the experiment as being the true villains, with one writing: "Nah boo. Bartise takes that prize," a fourth fan posted: "You have been redeemed by the cuties scene. Still said way too much about how Coleen was a 10 but redeemed nonetheless!"

What do you think?

Another person added: "No you’re not, Bartise and Matt are. You may be a little childish but you had good intentions. You’ll find your soulmate, she’s out there somewhere!"

Zanab has also responded to the latest episodes with a lengthy post on Instagram, explaining: "Cole, I fought for us until I couldn’t anymore. I know you know that. I know you know why I said what I said. I know you know what you did. It’s ok if you aren’t ready to talk about that yet. Zae. One thing about me, I choose my words carefully and I stand by everything I said."
