And George Fensom was left single and sent packing after Jess Harding made the decision to couple up with bombshell Sammy Root.

Another said: "She was never picking George."

And a third added: "Bless George he knew that was coming."

George sparked controversy before even entering the villa when his old homophobic tweets resurfaced.

The upsetting tweets were written back in 2014, when he would have been 15 years old.

The account has now been deleted, but their contents have since been widely circulated.

Speaking to The Sun before starring on the show, he said: "I honestly just feel absolutely sick about those tweets. They are not who I am today, they couldn't be any further from the man I am today and - quite frankly - if I could turn back time I wouldn't even have put those. 

"To be honest with you, it's me being really naïve at that age. I made the account back in 2011, so it's just stupidity on my behalf and doesn't reflect on who I am today at all."
