Dejon Defends Himself Against Love Island Narcissist Claims

- Dejon denied narcissism claims, citing support from fellow Islanders.
- He and Meg disabled social media comments due to extreme trolling.
- A relative’s viral TikTok accused him of long-term manipulative behavior.
Reality TV fame comes with a spotlight—and sometimes, a storm. Love Island star Dejon Noel-Williams is facing intense scrutiny after viewers labeled him a “narcissist” during his villa stint.
Now, the 26-year-old is speaking out against the backlash, revealing the emotional toll of online hate. From death threats to racist remarks, his post-villa experience has been far from the romantic escape he envisioned.
Dejon directly refuted claims of narcissism in an interview with the Daily Mail, stating:
“The girls who were on the show with me say I’m not a narcissist, I’m not a gaslighter. All of these things they have seen online—it means a lot to me because they spent 24 hours a day with me.”
He admitted to communication missteps but emphasized his empathy:
“I could have handled situations better, but when it comes to being a ‘narcissist’ and these words, empathy is definitely something that I have. It’s something I had for Meg, for Harry… when Meg was upset, I was there for her.”

His co-stars defended his character, yet public opinion remains divided.
The Toll of Online HateThe backlash was immediate once Dejon regained phone access post-villa. He described:
“The first thing I did was speak to my friends and family, but my phone was flooded with backlash and hateful messages. It got so bad that me and Meg turned comments off.”
The abuse included:
-
Death threats
-
Racist remarks
-
Accusations of manipulation
Fans and critics dissected his every move, from flirty Casa Amor moments to heated arguments with Meg.
A Relative’s Viral AccusationsAdding fuel to the fire, a relative posted a TikTok calling him a “narcissist” and “manipulative.” Niah, identified as his brother’s sister, claimed:
“I’ve been calling Dejon manipulative and a narcissist for 10 years, but no one believed me.”
Despite family requests to remove the video, she stood by her claims.
Fan Reactions and Mental Health ConcernsWhile some viewers condemned Dejon’s behavior, others raised concerns about online bullying:
“People need to remember about their mental health,” one TikTok user urged.
Another added: “Meg, Dejon, and Helena received vile abuse. It’s only a TV show—why such hatred?”
