'Love Island's Hannah Smith allegedly made racist remarks during her September 2024 arrest.

According to TMZ, a source close to the case shared that Hannah not only tried to assault the Black police officer who arrested her, but she also allegedly made numerous threatening racial remarks toward him. Hannah also allegedly told the officer that he hates white women, and insinuated that she was targeted because of her face. But what did Hannah allegedly actually say?

Hannah's alleged rant included plenty of expletives: "B---h. I can't wait to kill you, you dumba--, ugly b---h 'cause you're f--king fat, and they love us skinny b---hes 'cause you're f--king Black, and I hate Black b---hes. So I can't wait to kill you and your sister, you dumba-- b---h."

It's unclear why Hannah mentioned the officer's sister as well.

At the time of her arrest, she was released on an $8,000 bond.

Not only are Hannah's reported remakes against the officer racially charged, but they were also threatening in nature. For now, Hannah has remained silent on the incident and she has not publicly commented on the arrest or the subsequent allegations about reportedly racist remarks.
