A FORMER Love Island star has been jailed after he battered a man in a savage attack over a parking space.
Troy Frith, who appeared in the second series of the hit show, targeted the victim outside a Sainsbury’s in Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

The 32-year-old punched the man so forcefully he was left with serious head injuries.
Frith has now been jailed for one year and two weeks after pleading guilty to causing grievous bodily harm with intent.
Woolwich Crown Court heard Frith had become impatient while waiting for a family to remove a car seat.
Despite other parking spaces being available, the thug launched into the brutal attack in front of horrified shoppers.
Frith left the scene following the April 27 horror but was later found by police and arrested.
Investigating officer, PC Faye Gubby, said: “Frith became impatient while waiting for a family to remove a child seat from the rear of a car, despite there being other car parking spaces available.
“While he indicated remorse by asking about the victim’s welfare, he still caused serious harm to a man over a relatively trivial matter.
“The judge passed the sentence taking the unprovoked nature of the assault into consideration.”
Frith appeared on the second series on Love Island – entering the villa on day 30 as a bombshell.
He enjoyed a date with Tina Stinnes, who later joined the cast of Made in Chelsea.
But Frith was dumped from the island just seven days later after his love interest Olivia Buckland coupled up with Adam Jukes instead.
He was also slammed by his ex – Geordie Shore star – Marnie Simpson after entering the villa.
She posted: “Name dropping a ex or anything like it purely to get on a tv show is probably the most annoying thing in the world #cringe”.
