Love Island fans praise Whitney for reaction to Catherine and Scott’s explosive argument

LOVE Island fans have praised Whitney for her reaction to Scott and Catherine’s explosive row.

Before the original villa splintered into two, Catherine looked rock solid with partner Scott van der Sluis.

But just one day into Casa Amor and it looked like it was game over for the budding romance, as new boy Elom had turned her head – and last night she brought him back to the villa.

In tonight’s episode, things exploded between the pair with Catherine trying to get Whitney involved by seeking her advice as she shouted across the villa.

But Whitney refused to take sides and instead diffused the situation by signalling for Catherine to calm down.

She added: “Compose yourself we don’t do this.”

It looked as though it worked, with Catherine and Scott’s argument coming to an abrupt end.

Viewers loved Whitney’s reaction, as one person penned: “I love Whitney so much.”

A second penned: “Whitney telling Catherine to keep calm and composed bc she knows she’s damn wrong.”

A third added: “Whitney is going to win this show 100%... she knew to calm that argument.”

A fourth penned: “Yes Whitney! She needs to give composure lessons when she leaves the villa.”

A fifth wrote: “Whitney’s composure is a huge skill. I need that,” and someone else echoed: “Whitney really said to Catherine don’t involve me in your s***.”

During last night’s dramatic recoupling, Catherine returned to the villa arm-in-arm with Elom, with Scott devastated.

Before she returned to the main villa, Maya asked: "You were coupled up with Catherine before she left for Casa Amor, how would you say things were going between you both?"

Scott replied: "We were good but I guess we were still open.                              

"I think it's been a shock for me realising that my feelings are a bit further along than when she left.

"I brought everyone around here the other day and said my piece and proved in my eyes what I thought of her."

Scott said he would be sticking with Catherine, saying: "Since the first day I've just been missing one girl and it's not changed. I've decided to stick with Catherine."

Maya then asked if he thinks Catherine would have remained loyal to him, with Scott replying: "Every thought has gone through my head in the last few days, will she, won't she. It's got to the point now where I need to stop thinking it about it and just see."

Catherine then strolled back in with Elom on her arm - leaving Scott close to tears.
