Joey Essex ‘gives away’ he’s NOT thick
Tuesday’s instalment saw the former Towie star, 33, get to know the girls after arriving in the villa as the first bombshell.
The following day Joey and Harriett got to know each other on the bean bags, and the beauty wanted to know why he picked her for a smooch.
Joey said: “It was an in the moment thing. I felt like I did gravitate towards, I can’t believe I’m using that word. I don’t even really know what it means.”
Harriett asked: “Gravitate? Yeah it like pulls you in a little bit.”
Many took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to point out Joey’s blunder.
One said: “I know Joey is not about to do the ‘dim’ act at his big age of 33. You know exactly what gravitate means my friend #Loveisland.”
Another added: “He caught himself slipping….realised gravitate sounded too smart, had to back track. Stay on brand Joey.”
Fans slam Ayo
The hunk told Uma that he was interested in getting to know her and that Mimii knew that he was open to get to know other sexy singletons.
Many took to X, formerly known as Twitter, that conversation never happened between the two.
One said: “Ayo is literally lying which will lead Mimii on. He told Uma he’s OPEN & now he’s telling Mimii she shouldn’t stress. Ugh!”
“Watching men lie in real time is very unsettling lmao. Ayo looked her right in her face and concocted a lie from nowhere,” another added.
A third questioned: “Ayo wow? So you’re lying?”
A fourth pointed out: “Ayo DID NOT say nothing like that to MImi why is he lying?”
Can I stay at the Love Island villa?
The Love Island villa is called Sa Vinyassa and costs £5K a week to rent out.
After the show ends it’ll look completely different, with no cameras in and a homely vibe created with a complete interior overhaul.
There will be no neon signage but instead rustic additions, including exposed brickwork and snug sofas.
Fans of the show are also able to stay in the Love Island 2021 villa.
Fans slam Ciaran
The first love triangle of the series exploded on day four of the news series – with lethario Ciaran leaving one girl in tears with his antics.
The Welsh rugby player was slammed by viewers after the cheeky move and they said he was “playing a game” after he snogged Harriett hours after telling Nicole she was his “first choice”.
Harriett told the beach hut: “I do think Ciaran needs a kick up the backside, he doesn’t have one pretty lady, he has two. And he’s going to lose them.”
Viewers took to X, formerly Twitter, and slammed Ciaran.
One said: “Ciaran what made you think kissing Harriet then trying to pursue Nicole was a good idea? might want take a step back and rethink.”
A second said: “ciaran shouldn’t have kissed harriett, i don’t understand why he did that? should have turned and gone to sleep, but no, small leg over you had you losing it.”
Is Joey Essex being paid more than his fellow islanders?
Fans are convinced Joey is being paid for his time in the villa.
Taking to social media, one said: “I wonder how much they paid Joey Essex to be on here?”
A second wrote: “I just had a thought?? Is Joey Essex being paid a fee for this??? And if he wins, will he get the prize money as well as an appearance fee?
“They must’ve paid Joey big money for this.”
However, an insider has revealed Joey is being paid exactly the same as his fellow islanders – £375 a week.
Katie Price launches blistering attack on the girls
The former glamour model, 45, shared her thoughts on the new series of Love Island during the latest episode of her podcast.
Katie said she was shocked by the amount of cosmetic surgery the female Islander have this series.
She said on The Katie Price Show: “Lets talk about the girls, I don’t know if I’m getting old or double vision, but they all look the same.”
Katie’s little sister and co-host Sophie said: “She’s 24, the amount of f****** work she looks like she’s had done is nuts.”
The mum-of-five continued: “But I think they’ve all had work done, who hasn’t these days.
“All the girls start looking the same in their early 20s.
Katie then said that it was a shame that young girls feel the need to have beauty alterations and procedures done in their 20s.
“I know I have my lips but I’m 46, it’s sad that girls on Love Island all look the same,” she continued.
