It all kicks off on Love Island 2018 tonight in the most explosive row of the series so far.
It all begins when Jack Fowler – aka ‘new Jack’ – brings up his date with Georgia Steel.
He tells current partner Laura Anderson: “It was a nice date but I don’t really see it working with me and her and I did make that clear. Then when we got up to leave, I’ve gone in for a kiss on her cheek and she came in towards me straight on and she kissed me on the lips.
“Then she went for a two kiss thing and I pulled away the second time because I thought ‘This is so not what I need right now.’”
In the Beach Hut, Laura fumes: “I’m done with Georgia. I’ve been there for her but she is a little girl and I don’t rate her as a person anymore. I am gobsmacked and fuming.
“Again my mate – actually my best mate – has gone behind my back and tried to snog the guy that I’m coupled up with. I’ve just got over the situation with Wes and now Georgia is cracking on with Jack.”
Laura then confronts Georgia as they have a chat on the day beds.
Georgia says she chose to take Jack on a date because she wanted to choose someone she could have a laugh and banter with: “But I said, however my loyalties lie with Laura because she is one of my best friends in this villa. I’m not ever going to jeopardise that ever. I don’t understand why you’ve been touchy with me all night.”
Laura says: “So you didn’t try and kiss him then?… All you say is you’ve got loyalties. Taking out your best mate’s guy, telling me that it was purely because he made you laugh, then all of a sudden you fancy him, you’ve got a connection and you’re trying to kiss him. Now you’re denying trying to kiss him calling him a liar?”
Georgia calls Jack over. He says they did not kiss on the lips on purpose. He says to Georgia: “Unintentionally, we kissed on the lips. Agreed. After that kiss, you went in for another little kiss and I backed away. If you didn’t feel that or see that, I don’t know why.”
As the other Islanders watch on, in the Beach Hut, Ellie Brown comments: “Practice what you preach, Georgia. You’re only as loyal as your actions are. Just by saying you’re loyal twenty times a day, doesn’t make you loyal.”
Later Laura tells Ellie about Georgia lying to her. As Georgia walks past, Ellie says “it’s bulls**t” and Georgia tells her to “wind your neck in.”
Things get heated before Wes, who was also on the date, tells some of the other Islanders that Georgia and Jack did kiss each other.
He says to Dani and Jack: “I don’t care if she has leant in or he has leant in, they’ve kissed each other.”
Standing up for her mate Georgia, Dani goes to tell the Islanders gathered in the kitchen that it wasn’t one sided.
Wes comes to the front: “Yes she may have instigated it, yes she may have started it but you kiss someone, you kiss each other.”
To new Jack, he says: “I’m not saying you’re wrong for doing it. I’m not saying Georgia is wrong for doing it.”
Dani gets involved, saying in front of Laura: “Two people kissed for a reason! You can sit there and blame one person but two people kissed for a reason.”
Ellie then speaks up: “But then she shouldn’t have come back and said how loyal she is to Laura.”
Georgia storms off before Laura also walks away, upset at Dani sticking up for Georgia so much.
In the Beach Hut, Laura says: “Everyone always gets involved with everyone’s situation in here but choose your battles. If you don’t know and you weren’t there, then why would you think you would know over the people involved. What is going on?”
In the Beach Hut, Josh observes: “All this drama, all this madness, it’s only between two people and I think a lot of speculation is going on and speculation equals nonsense!”
Love Island 2018 airs tonight at 9PM on ITV2.
