TWEET AND SOUR
Love Island spoiler: Villa at war after islanders find out what they REALLY think of each other as they read tweets from fans
LOVE Island descends into chaos tonight when the islanders finally discover just what they've all been saying behind each other's backs.
The cameras have been rolling 24/7 for more than a month now, which means pretty much everyone has said at least one thing they wouldn't want their fellow islanders to hear.

Unfortunately for them, that's exactly what happens in Monday night's episode when the group sit down to play a rather mean task involving viewers' tweets.
The game, called Bang On Trend, is hosted by Georgia Harrison and Sam Gowland, who read out tweets about various islanders.
But the twist is that the islanders' names are blanked out, leaving the group to guess just who they are about.
Unsurprisingly, the challenge causes plenty of drama and miffed islanders are left sulking about the home truths they've just been delivered.
Montana Brown is disgruntled after it emerges during the game that her island pals Gabby Allen and Marcel Somerville have been sending texts about her and boyfriend Alex Beattie.
That bit of gossip is revealed via a viewer tweet declaring: "Really hope Montana finds that text from XXX to XXX slagging her and Alex off #drama."

Gabby insists it's just a "mountain out of a mole hill" but Montana tells her it all looks very "seedy".
Montana privately says: "At first I was really surprised because everyone looks at Gabby and Marcel as the power couple who are mature and give sound advice and who stay out of the drama. So when it was revealed it was Gabby and Marcel, I was shocked to be honest.”
Gabby, meanwhile, is also left particularly peeved by the task after it emerges viewers reckon her romance with Marcel Somerville is fake.
A tweet is read out declaring: "XX and XX are in one fake relationship. I'm not buying it one bit."
Feeling hurt but defiant, Gabby retorts: “I’d deserve an Oscar if I was faking it. I know that me and Marcel are rock solid so think what you like love.”

Camilla Thurlow, meanwhile, also finds herself in the firing line after being accused of putting on an "innocent" act.
The tweet about her says: "Camilla has cracked on with three different lads so far and yet people say she is an innocent girl."
Bemused, Camilla insists: "I’ve never said I’m an innocent girl. In my ideal world, I would have come in and met the man of my dreams and unfortunately life is not like that."
She has romanced eliminated islanders Jonny Mitchell and Craig Lawson, and is currently coupled up with Jamie Jewitt.

Camilla says after the task: “I’m not trying to present myself as a perfect person in any way whatsoever, I’m not saying ‘I’m innocent’ or an angel or whatever but what else could I do?
"Someone came in right after what happened with Jonny and it made me feel better, it’s what happens in the real world, you go on a holiday with your girlfriends and you have the rebound moment and it makes you feel temporarily better.
"Jonny got back here, reality hit and I was miserable, went through that whole period and then just as I was feeling better again someone walked in who is amazing and seemed to like me.
"If I didn’t give that a chance, I’d be an idiot.”

Elsewhere, trouble is brewing between already rocky couple Chris Hughes and Olivia Attwood after it emerges grime star Stormzy is a fan of the show and tweeted to say: "Chris, you’re too good for her mate."
Naturally, Chris seems rather chuffed but Olivia isn't happy at all.
After Chris tells her to calm down as it's just a game, she replies: "I’m not bothered about the tweet, I’m bothered about your reaction but we all expect that from you anyway."
Their already shaky union suffers another blow with a second tweet which lets slip how Olivia confessed she'd bed Mike Thalassitis in the hideaway if nobody found out.

The tweet reads: "XXX telling XXX she loves him too, roughly six hours after saying she’d sh*g XXX in the Hideaway if nobody would find out."
Understandably, Chris is furious - although Olivia insists she made the comment in jest while she and Chris had briefly split.
“We were broken up and it was a joke!" she tells him.
But Chris replies: "She is such a melt, that’s so muggy. Prior to that being read out, she’d lost her head that I laughed at a tweet... I have every right to be annoyed at that.”
After rowing in the garden after the task, Olivia storms off, leaving Chris to tell himself Stormzy was correct with his tweet.
"He’s right though isn’t he, I am too good for her, way too good," says Chris.

And finally, there's also fireworks between Georgia and the girls after she finds out Olivia and Tyla Carr have been talking about her behind her back.
That nasty shock comes courtesy of a tweet reading: “XXX and XXX are perfect examples of fake friends, slagging Georgia off and then all nice to her face”
An upset Georgia demands to know who the tweet is about and is stunned when Olivia and Tyla are confirmed as the subjects.
"I didn’t expect that from you, Liv," says Georgia.
"I did half expect Tyla to talk about me but I see you as my girl."

Olivia insists she was just being defensive when Georgia first entered the villa - but Georgia isn't convinced.
Meanwhile, there will be an explosive double elimination in this evening's episode, when one couple is dumped from the island for good.
Viewers have been voting for their favourite couple and the pair with the fewest votes will say goodbye.
Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2
