Love Island viewers slam ‘disrespectful’ boy as new feud erupts in the villa
LOVE Island viewers think Casa Amor boy Josh has not come under enough scrutiny for snaking his best friend in yesterday’s challenge.
Everyone in the villa knew drama was afoot when the islanders were tasked with playing a game of snog, marry, pie.
In a controversial move, Mimii‘s partner Josh decided to lock lips with Grace Jackson instead.
People watching at home were annoyed by the ‘disrespectful’ statement he made afterwards, saying: “I decided to snog this girl because she’s attractive.
“Ever since I’ve come in here she’s given me a lot of attention and I feel like we had a good connection.
“If I wasn’t with Mimii I’d probably be a bit more open to getting to know her.”
However, Love Island fans have since also pointed out that he also betrayed his best friend Reuben with the kiss.
Grace and Reuben are currently paired up on the ITV dating show.
Viewers took to social media to share their opinions on the situation, with one person hitting out: “The thing is, Josh is not only disrespecting Mimii with the Grace situation but he’s also disrespecting his friend Reuben and he couldn’t be bothered about that.”
Another added: “No one is talking how Josh doesn’t even respect bro code snogging Grace like that when he knows Reuben has been trying to get a connection with her.
“I love Reuben he just asked him to go for her. I hope he does so that Reuben can move to Mimii.”
A third predicted the end of their friendship, saying: “Josh and Reuben are about to fizzle out because of Grace.
“I think Josh should have been more honest with Reuben in the beginning because he actually wants Grace low-key.”
Despite Josh making the bold move to demonstrate his interest in Grace, Reuben reacted gracefully to the situation, refusing to argue over it.
Love Island series 11 - feuds in the villa
No edition of Love Island is complete without its fair share of drama - and series 11 is no different. Here's a look at some of the most fiery feuds so far.
- Joey Essex & Samantha Kenny: Samantha entered the villa on Day 1 and was initially coupled with Sam Taylor. However, Samantha was ‘stolen’ by Joey, the first bombshell of series 11. She was ‘dumped’ on Day 16 – with the make-up artist saying she had been brutally snubbed by Joey in the villa – although it never made it to air.
- Matilda Draper & Jess White: While Matilda arrived as a bombshell on Day 12, Jess was part of the original line-up. The two clashed in Casa Amor, over Jess’ frustration that Matilda was talking to new hunk Hugo Godfroy – who Jess previously snogged.
- Harriet Blackmore & Jess White: The two women were caught up in a love triangle for much of their time on the programme. The pair were fighting over Ronnie Vint, 27, from Greenwich, who wound up being dumped alongside Harriett.
