Jon Clark hits back at claims he’s pals with Love Island’s Kem.. as James Argent says ‘he never cut my hair’
JON Clark has slammed rumours that he's best friends with Love Island's Kem Cetinay who is partnered up with Chloe Crowhurst, Jon's ex-girlfriend.
It was revealed on the show that Kem and Chloe were linked by one of her ex-lovers, leading many to assume Jon was the mystery connection.
But the TOWIE star told his Twitter followers: "Just to clarify for everyone! Kem ain't my pal, we don't know each other, so that's another fella. hahaha gotta laugh.. (sic)"
Jon seems to have taken a more positive approach to the revelation that there's yet another cause for heartbreak.
After Chloe fled to the Love Island without even telling her then boyfriend, he went on an expletive-filled social media rant and branded her "fame hungry" and "an evil bi**h."

However his cheery mood didn't last long as shortly after the first episode of Love Island, Jon shared a cryptic post on Instagram with the caption: "F**k it, it is what it is."
The upload featured an inspirational quote - "Getting knocked down in life is a given. Getting up and moving forward is a choice."
Deep.
There's further embarrassment in store for 21-year-old hairdresser Kem as TOWIE's James Argent has also denied knowing him.
Kem had previously claimed to cut Arg's hair and said "I get on well with them."
Replying to a fan on Twitter, Arg said: "As far as I'm aware he's never cut my hair! Lol."
Jon sparked rumours that he could be confronting Chloe on Love Island after being spotted at Stansted airport earlier this week.
He has since claimed that he's simply off to a health retreat in Portugal in an effort to stay clear of drama. But having tweeted along to the first few Love Island episodes, it doesn't look like his plan is working.
Jon, 27, had previously spoken out about his heartbreak and claimed he is still in love with his ex-girlfriend.
He told Reveal: "I don’t know what to do with myself. I haven’t eaten in four days. All I can do is lie in bed and try to go sleep so I can stop thinking about it.
"I still love this girl. I know she’ll have sex on TV, it’s bound to happen, and it’s going to break my heart. I’m not going to sit there and watch her get in another geezer’s bed...
"I'm getting out of the country. I can't watch this show. I'm going to a health retreat in Portugal to sort my mind out. I don't know when I'm coming back."
