THE Only Way Is Essex fans were left unimpressed with Kady McDermott's debut in the ITVBe show last night - after she made co-star Courtney Green cry.

Kady, 23, was branded "muggy" by viewers when she approached Courtney to discuss the fact that she is now dating her ex-boyfriend, Myles Barnett.

During the scenes, the Love Island 2016 contestant told Courtney that she didn't want things to be awkward between them.

Courtney noticeably held back tears as she explained: "The boy can move on. I've got no say in it, and if you make him happy then I'm happy for you both.

"But for me, it is bl**dy hard."

Courtney's friend, Chloe Meadows, then referenced reports that Myles had cheated on Courtney with Kady - which Kady adamantly denied before asking a stunned Courtney if she still loved him.

The reality star confessed that she did - walking off in tears soon after.

The majority of viewers were firmly on Courtney's side in the confrontation, taking to Twitter to showcase their support.

One wrote: "Courtney's reaction to Kady broke me, man.

"We all know what she's feeling; 'What's she got that I haven't?' #TOWIE."

Another fumed: "Who thought it was a good idea to bring muggy Kady on towie???? Completely ruined it for me."

However, some viewers defended Kady - applauding her for approaching an awkward situation head-on and trying to "break the tension".

Fans tweeted: "Already people are jumping on @kadymcdermottx and calling her names. She was only going up to Courtney to say hello, so it wouldn’t be awkward since Kady is now in Towie she being the bigger person. #TOWIE."

"Kady just went over to say hi. I think Courtney overreacted by crying & walking off. I know it’s hard but Kady didn’t even say more than 2 words. They have to be in the same place, so it was decent of her to try and break the tension."

Kady first found fame on the second series of Love Island, where she dated Scott Thomas.

The star proved herself to have a fiery temper as she and Scott entertained viewers with their heated arguments.

Meanwhile, Courtney and Myles' tumultuous relationship has been well-documented on Towie, with Myles being accused of cheating on Courtney multiple times.

The pair eventually split in June of this year, and in August The Sun exclusively revealed that he is now dating Kady.

A source said at the time: "No one can deny that Kady and Myles make a great couple and they’re both definitely each other’s types.

"It’s still early days but they have been enjoying spending time together and there’s most certainly a spark between them."
