Love Island fans gobsmacked as Matilda sticks her middle finger up at rival on live TV amid new feud
LOVE Island fans were left gobsmacked as Matilda Draper stuck her middle finger up at a show rival on live TV.
During tonight’s finale, Matilda, 24, flipped the bird at Ronnie Vint, 28, for the second time this series, while being interviewed by host Maya Jama, 29.
The recruitment consultant had ben joined by her love interest Sean Stone, 24, for a chat after making it to third place.
But when the presenter asked if she and Ronnie would be planning any double dates with Ronnie and Harriett, 24, Matilda shot back, “Well, I dunno if I want to,” while making the shock gesture.
Sean agreed: “Change of plan, I think.”
Thankfully, Ronnie and Harriett erupted into laughter and Maya quickly moved on with another question.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one viewer wrote: “this is the second time matilda has flipped off ronnie omg.”
Another added: “Feel like Matilda and Ronnie are just siblings at heart,” while a third agreed: “Absolutely sick of seeing Matilda flicking the bird. So aggressive.”
Later in the episode, Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan were declared the King and Queen of Love Island‘s summer series.
But it’s not the first time he’s been at the reciving end of her middle finger.
Sunday’s instalment of the ITV2 show saw a handful of the former Islanders return to the villa to vote out one of the remaining couples.
It was Joey Essex and Jessy Potts who got dumped from the TV villa in the brutal twist.
However, Matilda and her Sean did also recieve two votes from Omar Nyame and Ronnie.
While Ronnie shared his reasons, Matilda sneakily put up her middle finger up at him while her arm was linked to Sean’s.
Many took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to point it out.
One said on the social media platform: “Lmaoo not Matilda giving Ronnie the finger #loveisland.”
Another wrote on Reddit: “The way the tried to cut out Matilda giving the finger to Ronnie bc he went on about how he knew what she’s like is killing me lmaooo. Presumably they also cut out everyone’s reaction.”
A third commented: “did anyone else catch matilda flipping ronnie off after his vote if u look at the bottom of the frame aft matilda says shes not happy w the vote you’ll see it.”
Ronnie said: “Obviously, knowing Matilda on the outside, I don’t think you’d pop it off at all.
“I feel like this connection in here is just in here.
“The obsession with another couple in here, I feel like you took your eye off the real reason you’re in here.
“The couple I am going to send home is Sean an Matilda.”
