TONIGHT'S Love Island episode was labelled the "cringiest ever", as fans slammed the "awful talent show".

Every year the Islanders get to showcase their secret skills, but this evening's show fell flat on its face.

The cast showed off their "talents" which included waffle making, a toe puppet show, and an art class.

Fans were also less impressed with Grace's fitness class, and Nicole's dance routine.

Ayo attempted to play the flute - even though it appeared he had never played the instrument in his life.

Sean did a talk about sweets, while his BFF Joey's rap failed to hit the right note.

Mimii's singing and Jessy walking on stilts were the highlights of the talent show, but couldn't save tonight's episode and viewers weren't happy.

One fan ranted: "This is the most cringiest talent show in love island history."

While another said: "OMG this is awful!"

This one didn't hold back: "Why nother with the talent show? they have no talent!"

Another vented: "Mimii was good, but the rest just made it up as they went along!"

Love Island fans convinced boy's head will turn just days before the final after visit from family

Meanwhile, tonight was not all fun as fans watched as Jess Spencer broke down in tears in a heartbreaking moment after a bombshell from Ayo.

The ITV2 show star was left devastated after her man told her something her brother told him during the family day, which aired last night.

Viewers saw Ayo's sibling tell him he believed he was better suited to his ex, Mimii, who has since moved on with Josh.

While Jess did not hear what Ayo's brother said, tonight saw Ayo tell his girl the brutal thoughts of his family.

"I heard that my brother and my sister really do like you," Ayo old her her, while sat at the firepit.

"Of course they had their opinions," he continued. "One of my brother's opinions was, to let you know as well, was that he felt like me and Mimii are better suited."

Jess's face then fell as she took in the shocking blow.

"I just wanted you to be in the clear about it, but I'd rather you just talk to me about how you feel rather than bottle it up, " Ayo urges, as Jess still takes in the news.

When Jess said nothing, he went on: " I can tell right now how you feel."

"If you can tell, then I don't need to say it, do I?" Jess responded, before exhaling loudly and running her hands through her hair.

"What's wrong? What is it?" Matilda said as she tried to comfort a visibly tearful Jess.

Fans of the show were certainly not impressed by Ayo's actions, judging from their comments on social media.

One wrote: "Don’t get why Ayo feels the need to tell Jess that. She looks defeated, I feel bad for her."

Presenter Will Njobvu, who regularly appears on spin-off show, Aftersun, even added: "Did Ayo REALLY need to tell Jess that piece of information? (especially if he doesn’t believe his brother’s viewpoint)"

";No need at all! I think he feels the same way too," chipped in a third.

Others, however, praised Ayo's decision to tell Jess, even if it hurts.

One defender of Ayo wrote: "He did say he would keep her in the loop on everything, hard decision, but best he was honest with her."

A second agreed, saying: "It's what she wants though Ayo is keeping her in the loop."

A third fell somewhere in the middle, believing Ayo was right to tell her, but should have waited until they were off camera.

They pointed out: "He could’ve told her when the show was finished filming, it’s embarrassing to hear that in the villa."

Love Island continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
