LOVE Island's Joey Essex has added fuel that he's a producer plant after he's accused of "deliberately causing havoc" tonight.
The ex-Towie star decided to give Harriett some advice, but many ITV viewers were quick to point out that Joey once again was "pulling the strings" and being the "instigator" of the villa.

Harriett admitted that she fancies Ronnie and wanted to explore a romantic connection with him without hurting Jess.
Joey told Harriett to pull Ronnie for a chat in the Hideaway.
The pair then head to the Hideaway terrace and enjoy a kiss.
Ronnie cheekily told Harriett that he'd happily spend the night with her in the Hideaway - but admitted it would be a "rogue" move.

After they return, Jess then pulled Ronnie for a chat and asked if he’s kissed Harriett, with Ronnie coming clean.
Jess slammed Ronnie as an "embarrassment" and said pulling Harriett to the Hideaway after the challenge was "cheap and that Harriett is cheap too".
But many were quick to spot Joey's "stirring" the pot again, just 48 hours after he pulled Ciaran up on his feelings for Harriett.
One wrote: "Joey is playing the reality game that’s what he does, he knows how to play."

A second posted: "I'm telling you guys Joey was brought in to cause havoc."
"I take it back because adding Joey is one the best things the producers did this season," a third said.
A fourth echoed: "Joey is giving producer lmao #loveIsland he’s too seasoned at stirring the pot lol."
Another added: "Joey is such an instigator man. You can tell he’s being paid to make tv. And it’s just annoying. He’s in a couple with a girl that’s literally a fan because she was like 13/14 when Towie started."
It comes after a feud later erupted on Friday when Joey waded into a love triangle and crushed Harriett's hopes of winning Ciaran.
Joey told Harriett that Nicole was Ciaran's favourite girl in the villa, sparking a row between Harriett and Ciaran and leaving the dancer in a spin.
The amount of drama caused by Joey in just three days left some people wondering if the reality TV legend was getting direction from the powers at be.
One person asked on Instagram: "Nobody going to mention how badly Joey threw Ciaran under the bus here?"

Replying to the post, another viewer claimed: "Probably told to by producers."
One more agreed, writing: "Was looking for this comment for a while, this has to be (producers) telling them what to do, otherwise these girls are out of their head."
