Love Island’s Jay isn’t a real contestant and is working undercover to cause drama in the villa, say fans

LOVE Island fans have claimed new arrival Jay Younger has been sent into the villa to cause chaos.

Some viewers have even started referring to him as a "producer" - convinced he's working undercover.

The lad has been causing trouble since he started, first splitting Ekin-Su and Davide by snogging her on the terrace.

And last night he was up to his old tricks, moving on to Paige Thorne with what many thought was a very convenient question in the challenge.

Jay read out: "Snog the Islander you'd want to couple up with if you weren't with your partner."

He then confidently strode over to Paige - who is happily coupled up with Jacques O'Neill - and planted a kiss on her.

Fans couldn't help but notice how the lad, who has suddenly cooled dramatically on Ekin-Su, gets involved in everyone's drama.

One fan tweeted: "Jay is a producer plant because who goes around starting s**t in every conversation their first week?"

Another wrote: "Jay lowkey seems like a producer. Ekin-Su creates drama through sheer chaotic energy, Jay is moving like Littlefinger."

A third insisted: "JAY IS A PRODUCER IN DISGUISE , he is way to invested and started drama."

He sparked last week's showdown between Ekin-Su and Davide when he tipped off the Italian that he's snogged the girl he was coupled up with.

But he left the actress's eyes bulging when he kissed Paige in front of her on last night's show.

However, others believe he is motivated by staying ahead in the popularity stakes, with the public vote signalling to him that Ekin-Su isn't a winning prospect.

One fan tweeted: "Who else thinks. Jay is only looking at Paige because he and Ekin-Su were in the least popular. So he wants to pair with someone popular."

The idea of the 'undercover contestant' was frequently used in other reality shows such as Big Brother.

However, it has never been part of the internationally successful Love Island format.
