Love Island fans have branded Jessica Spencer 'crazy' after she complained to Ayo Odukoya in Friday's episode that she wants to be friends with his ex Mimii Ngulube, despite stealing the hunk from her.
Ayo had been coupled up with Mimii for four weeks but couldn't ignore the attraction he felt towards Jessica and chose to pair up with her at the post-Casa Amor recoupling on Thursday.
Early in Friday's episode, Jessica said to Ayo on the sofas: 'Right now, the interactions between me and the girls are a bit forced. I can tell they don't want to talk to me, I can tell they don't really want to make convo and say "hi" to me.
'I just feel it's a situation that no one really knows how to deal with. Obviously, I knew it would be hard, and Mimii's feelings are the only things I was taking into consideration, but I don't think I thought about the other girls.
'It's a shame because in here Mimii's the person that I'd probably gravitate towards. She's like my friends on the outside.

Jessica said to Ayo: 'Obviously, I knew it would be hard, and Mimii's feelings are the only things I was taking into consideration, but I don't think I thought about the other girls'
Jessica finished by telling Ayo: 'And, it's a shame because if you weren't in the situation I'd probably be friends with her.
'But, obviously, I understand that she's not gonna want to share her bikinis with me, is she?'
The new couple then shared a hug and a kiss, and Nicole chastised: 'They need to stop doing that in front of Mimii's face.'
Viewers were unimpressed by Jessica's complaints, especially as she and Ayo proceeded to share a kiss in full view of Mimii, and took to X, formerly Twitter, to criticise them.
They wrote: 'Jess begging for Mimii’s friendship whilst also kissing and cuddling Ayo right in front of her is CRAZY I’m sorry she can’t be sane #LoveIsland';
'The whole Mimii, Ayo, and Jess situation is crazy. Jess wants to be besties with either Mimii or Ayo, but they want to be on good terms. Jess said the girls are being cold toward her. Ellie is making a big deal about the DM messages. What a boring episode! #LoveIsland';
'Jess complaining about how the other girls arent being friendly towards her like she isn’t under ayos armpit 25/8 #loveIsland';
'Did Jess expect Mimii to hug her or sum?? You stole the girls man, you should be happy she didn't chew you in front of everybody #loveisland #LoveIslandUK';
'Why is Jess crying so much though?? You legit came in to steal the girls man tf #loveIsland';
Jessica said of Mimii: 'And, it's a shame because if you weren't in the situation I'd probably be friends with her'
She finished: 'But, obviously, I understand that she's not gonna want to share her bikinis with me, is she?' And the two ended their conversation with a kiss

LOVE ISLAND 2024: MEET THE CONTESTANTS
NAME: Mimii Ngulube
AGE: 24
FROM: Portsmouth
OCCUPATION: Mental Health Nurse
WHY LOVE ISLAND? The pool in Portsmouth is not giving. I've tried dating and speaking to people on social media and it just hasn't been successful. Applying was a spontaneous thing, I didn't expect to get here!
WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? My girls are my rocks and I'm theirs, so I'll be a good friend as well as going in there to find a man. I like dressing up, so I'll bring style, and I'd like to think I'm quite funny so I'll make people laugh. Bringing honesty as well - I'm good at picking up on people's personality traits and side-eyeing those who might be liars.
NAME: Sean Stone
AGE: 24
FROM: Hertford
OCCUPATION: Sweets Salesman
WHY LOVE ISLAND? I've always been one for relationships, and when you have found someone you want to be with it's the best feeling. Now is the perfect time, the one thing that is missing is my soulmate.
HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? Very loving, caring and thoughtful. I'm the kind of guy that, if you broke down on the motorway and needed your tyre changed, I'd be there at any time of night.
NAME: Ayo Odukoya
AGE: 25
FROM: Canning Town
OCCUPATION: Model
WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I think I'd bring excitement and joy. I think people would have someone to come to and talk to and feel comfortable being around or to have a laugh with. I think I'm somebody everyone would take to.
WHY SHOULD SOMEBODY DATE YOU? I feel like the way I carry myself is very respectful and I think people take to that and once you show who you are to somebody you get it back tenfold. The way I am gives off a good enough energy for people to feel comfortable around me.
NAME: Nicole Samuel
AGE: 24
FROM: Aberdare, Wales
OCCUPATION: Accounts Manager
WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I've been enjoying single life and the attention of different boys, it's fun. I've enjoyed being able to go on holiday with the girls and not having to worry about someone back home. All the girls are there texting in their room and I'm out till 4 in the morning living my best life.
WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? I became a world champion dancer in 2011, not many people know that. I was a professional street dancer.
NAME: Jess White
AGE: 25
FROM: Stockport
OCCUPATION: Retail Manager
WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I don't underestimate the fact that I'm hard work. I know what I want, and I'm not easily pleased. When you're a loud, outgoing woman, sometimes it can intimidate men - men don't always want that.
WHAT'S YOUR TYPE ON PAPER? I love a set of white Turkey teeth but a good set of Turkey teeth. I would say, personality traits: you have to be family orientated. You have to be tall, you can't be shorter than me, I can't be having to question whether I can wear heels around you and what height of heels I can wear. If you're vertically challenged, it's not for me.
NAME: Ciaran Davies
AGE: 21
FROM: Pencoed, South Wales
OCCUPATION: Surveyor
WHAT'S YOUR TYPE ON PAPER? Obviously looks but humour is a big thing for me, I'm a bit of a wind up so I want a girl who can give it back. Loyalty is another one for me: I think that's the most important thing to look for in a relationship.
WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? When I was in Malia on a boys holiday I pretended to be Liam Reardon from series 7 to get into a club because they wouldn't let us in. It worked and we ended up getting a private booth and free drinks all night.
NAME: Uma Jammeh
AGE: 23
FROM: Islington, North London
OCCUPATION: VIP host / model
WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I feel like I've been so unlucky in love! It's all been underwhelming so far. I don't know what the reason is, I think it's them, as it can't be me!
CLAIM TO FAME? I was born in a closet in the hospital! There were no rooms left, my poor mum!
NAME: Joey Essex
AGE: 33
FROM: Chigwell, Essex
OCCUPATION: Reality star
CLAIM TO FAME? The Only Way Is Essex
FAMOUS EXES: Joey was in a relationship with fellow TOWIE star Sam Faiers from 2011 to 2014 with the pair getting engaged before they split. He has also been spotted locking lips with former Love Island stars Ellie Brown and Maura Higgins. He also dated his Dancing On Ice pro partner Vanessa Bauer.
NAME: Grace Jackson
AGE: 25
FROM: Manchester
OCCUPATION: Model and social media marketing coordinator
WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? No guys have good communication and it's painful. I like someone who doesn't take themselves and life too seriously. My lifestyle can put guys off a little bit, I like to go out and go abroad a lot. They can't keep up with my lifestyle. It's the life that I want, and it helps with my business.
NAME: Wil Anderson
AGE: 23
FROM: Whitley Bay, Tyne And Wear
OCCUPATION: Quantity surveyor
WHY DID YOU WANT TO GO ON LOVE ISLAND? I wanted to be single for the last year because I’ve been in two serious relationships from the age of 18 but, now I feel like it’s time to put myself back out there. I want to feel that love again
NAME: Matilda Draper
AGE: 24
FROM: Beckenham
OCCUPATION: Recruitmant Consultant
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'LL BRING? I want to bring sunshine to the Villa. I’m lighthearted and don’t take myself too seriously. If things get too serious in the Villa I’m going to throw in a little joke or a ‘would you rather’.
NAME: Konnor Ewudzi
AGE: 28
FROM: Cornwall
OCCUPATION: Barber
WHY LOVE ISLAND AND WHY NOW? I am ready to find somebody. I’ve been in a couple of relationships and now feels like the right time as I have learnt from past relationships. I’ll be able to pick out the red flags now.
NAME: Jessy Potts
AGE: 25
FROM: Leicester
OCCUPATION: Brand Partnerships Associate
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WILL BRING TO THE VILLA? I’m fun, I like to get involved, so I’d like to think I will get stuck in as soon as I arrive. I also have a very sarcastic sense of humour, so I’ll make everyone laugh, but I’m a Sagittarius, so I also have a fiery side and I'm not afraid to say what I think or stand my ground. I’m not very good at taking 'no' for an answer.
Emma Milton
NAME: Emma Milton
AGE: 30
FROM: Manchester
OCCUPATION: Fashion Content Creator
WHO DO YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON IN THE VILLA? I had a brief thing with Joey a few years ago. We’ve been friends for years and I would be open to reconnecting with Joey. We get on really well and we have a lot of mutual friends. I am also friends with Grace in Manchester, so it’s a little bit awkward.
WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? I am ready to bring my fashion and looks into the Villa. I’m a really good communicator and always ready to give good advice to help someone.
Hugo Godfroy

WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? I’ll be an honest Islander and I’m never afraid to be myself. I always take people’s opinions on board but I’m not a yes man - I’m going in there to find love and prepared to step on toes to do so.
Jessica Spencer
NAME: Jessica Spencer
AGE: 25
FROM: London

Blade Siddiqi
NAME: Blade Siddiqi

WHO DO YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON IN THE VILLA? The three that have really caught my eye are Uma, Grace and Matilda. They each have their own qualities.
WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? First and foremost, I’m looking to come and shake things up. I want to bring the energy, get amongst it and really consider myself as someone who is looking for something genuine moving forward. I want a Queen by my side.
