Tommy Fury has no shortage of attention on Love Island 2019 tonight.
He finds himself being pursued by both Molly-Mae Hague and Maura Higgins ahead of the next recoupling.
Having only just arrived in the villa, Maura has made no secret of the fact she is interested in Tommy.
In tonight’s show, Maura reflects in the Beach Hut about her feelings for Tommy: “I do like Tommy. I felt a connection. There’s a lot of eye contact. He’s sexy.”
Later, Molly-Mae decides to express to Maura how she feels about Tommy. She says: “Tommy and I have been getting on really well. I’ve spent a lot of time with him in this villa.”
Referring to Molly-Mae and Tommy’s argument from the previous night, Maura asks: “So, what was the argument you had then?”
Molly-Mae replies: “I felt like he prioritised you before even making sure I was ok.”
Maura declares: “I do feel like me and Tommy have a connection and I want to pursue that.”

Things get tense as Amber Gill interrupts and addresses Maura: “Do you think that maybe you should have pulled Molly-Mae aside?”
But a defiant Maura says: “No. They’re not in a relationship.”
Maura says to Molly-Mae: “Last night, you didn’t say that you really liked him. There was a connection with me and Tommy. He did tell me he liked me. I’m here to find someone.”
She then comments in the Beach Hut “I don’t need to ask Molly-Mae’s permission to crack on with Tommy Fury. Is she joking?”
Molly-Mae goes on to attempt to get things back on track with Tommy and asks him for a chat on the terrace.
Molly-Mae begins: “Last night, I never expected to get as upset as I did. It made me realise a lot of things. I’m apologising for going off on you like that. It wasn’t necessary. I felt hurt that you didn’t pull me for a chat before you pulled Maura for a chat.”
Tommy responds: “I do apologise. It was a stupid thing to not pull you straight away after I’ve been coupled up with you for six days. Terrible move. I just don’t get why you didn’t lock it off. You were keeping your options open.”
Molly-Mae continues: “You’re the guy I like in here. I do want to show you that I still like you. If you feel like what you have with Maura, after knowing the girl for 24 hours, is stronger than what you have with me then that’s absolutely fine.
“Personally, I don’t feel like you’re going to get on with Maura better than you get along with me.”
Tommy confides in the Beach Hut: “Maura has been in here a day and she has already told me more than what Molly-Mae has told me in six days. It is what it is. It’s a hard decision to make because me and Molly-Mae have a good connection but now the tables have turned.”
Shortly after, Maura and Tommy have a chat on the day beds and Maura wants to know where she stands.
Tommy tells her: “I’m hugely attracted to you. You know you’re sexy.”
Maura sees this as her opportunity to make a move, asking: “What about if I asked you to kiss me?”
Will Tommy kiss Maura? While he appears torn between both Molly-Mae and her, could Maura’s bold move be enough to help him make his choice?
Love Island 2019 airs tonight at 9PM on ITV2.
