Fans of Irish influencer and newly entered bombshell Charleen Murphy have united in one opinion following a highly emotional episode of Love Island on Thursday night.
There was more than enough shouting and tearful conversations to keep a Love Island fan entertained as the villa dealt with the outcome of Wednesday night’s recoupling and Casa Amor.
Several islanders were feeling the pressure, and among them was Dubliner Charleen, who became visibly emotional as she hid away in the corner with the other three Casa Amor girls.
As the drama stepped up a notch, Charleen was seen wiping away tears while discussing Wednesday’s recoupling with Mara, Martha, and Julia.
Trying to put the Irish bombshell at ease, Julia stood up for Kavan, claiming that Jasmine’s reaction to the recoupling was why he needed a break.
While Kavan chose to couple up with Charleen, Simba brought Mara back from Casa Amor. This left the original Islanders, Jasmine and Angelista, heartbroken and single.
Unfortunately for Charleen, however, the OG villa girls stood by Jasmine, claiming that Kavan bringing Charleen back from Casa Amor was crazy.
In a tense conversation later in the episode, Kavan tried to explain what had gone on in Casa Amor, ‘holding his hands up’ to the fact that kissing Charleen was ‘a bit extra’.
He said: ‘I tried to just focus on Casa, I tried not to think about what was going on here. I wanted to just be there and explore connections there. I wasn’t as respectful as I could have been… I don’t want this to be over.’
An unimpressed Jasmine hit back, telling Kavan: ‘I needed an answer anyway, and I got an answer,’ claiming that she no longer has any fight left to save their connection.
And when Kavan confessed that he didn’t want to close the door on their relationship completely, Jasmine replied: ‘I don’t think that’s your call anymore.’
Later in the episode, Charleen and Martha sat down with Kavan and Aidan for an emotional chat, with more tears as everyone tried to clear the air.
Martha admitted that the new girls had received a ‘very cold’ reception from the original girls following the dramatic recoupling.
Kavan reassured Charleen that ‘nothing that’s been said is at you’, explaining that emotions were simply ‘running high’, in the villa after the recoupling.
He also made it clear that, despite the tension, he has ‘no regrets’ about his decision.
Many Love Island fans, however, were quick to back Charleen online, claiming that she was ‘too sweet’ to be in the villa.
One viewer said: ‘Charleen, we love you and want to give you a massive hug,’ while another penned: ‘Baby girl Charleen, noooooo.’
A third wrote: ‘Kavan and Charleen are much more suited,’ as a fourth chimed in: ‘I think she’s too sweet to be in there. I want to hug her.’
