Love Island's latest bombshell Lolly Hart ruffled feathers during Thursday night's show but viewers are convinced that ITV producers are controlling the 'narrative'.
During the episode, flight attendant Lolly, 30, chose three of the guys - Joey Essex, 33, Ciaran Davies, 21, and Konnor Ewudzi, 28 - for a date in the hideaway.
However, fans believe producers 'told' the new bombshell who to pick to create 'drama' between the islanders and their couples as Ciaran and Joey are happily coupled up with Nicole Samuel and Jessy Potts.
Joey was first up on the date with Lolly, leaving Jessy less than impressed as the TOWIE star went to get to know the bombshell.
Lolly instantly didn't hold back her feelings about Joey's current couple with Jessy.

During the episode, flight attendant Lolly, 30, chose three of the guys - Joey Essex, 33, Ciaran Davies, 21, and Konnor Ewudzi, 28 - for a date in the hideaway
She said: 'I think your personality and my personality would go together to a tee, but I have got something to say… you've kinda gone back in your shell a little bit from the beginning, please correct me if I'm wrong.
'I feel like you're jokey, laughy and fun but since you've been with Jessy, she's a gorgeous, gorgeous girl, she's naturally beautiful but I don't know if there's something missing between you both…'
In the villa, Jessy was left questioning how Joey's date was going with the new bombshell.
She said to the girls: 'Karma's a b**** and she's called Lolly… if she can take him, then she can have him'.
Next up was Konnor who had a very flirt date with the bombshell from Leicestershire before her final date was with Ciaran who completely shut down a romantic connection with her straight away.
However, Welsh beauty Nicole was left questioning why the new girl would pick Ciaran as they have been closed off for a while.
Viewers quickly took to X - formerly known as Twitter - to say 'producers told Lolly to pick Ciaran and Joey to cause tension'.
'The producers pushing this narrative to make Joey seem loyal to Jessy. You can’t trick me! #loveIsland'.

'The producers told her to pick Ciaran to add some drama I’m convinced lol #loveIsland'.
'The producers clearly told Lolly to choose Ciaran, she wants a ‘husband’ and she definitely does not want someone who has just entered adulthood #loveIsland'.
'Feel like the producers told Lolly to pick Ciarian to cause tension. Feel bad for her #loveisland'.
Ahead of entering the villa Lolly explained how she is looking forward to getting to know Konnor and is interested in Joey as they are a 'similar age'.
She said: 'Joey is a similar age to me and has a good sense of humour so I think we will get on well. I worry that we are the same height but I need to stop being so picky. Konnor is also great.'
Lolly regularly posts to social media with content from her jet set lifestyle, visiting locations like Dubai and Washington, as well as sharing sweet snaps of her Dalmatian called Humphrey.
She studied for a BA Hons Fashion Buying and Retailing at London Metropolitan University.
Lolly went on to work at Monarch Airlines, before landing a role as cabin crew at Virgin Atlantic in 2015 and has worked at the company for nearly 10 years.
She is mutual friends with a number of ex Love Island lads including Wes Nelson and Chris Hughes.

It comes after a surprise dumping saw four people sent packing during Wednesday's episode.
In a decision made by the public, Casa Amor Islanders Emma Draper, Hugo Godfroy and Blade Siddiqi were the latest to be dumped.
But the most shocking turn of events was original Islander Jess White being among those to receive the least votes and therefore also dumped, leaving Nicole Samuel and Mimii Ngulube in tears.
After a dramatic kissing challenge, Ayo Odukoya later received a text saying for the villa to gather around the firepit.
'Islanders, the public have been voting for their favourite girl and favourite boy, those with the fewest votes will be at risk of being dumped from the island tonight ,' a text sent to Grace Jackson read.
'As Josh and Reuben are the newest Islanders, they are not included in the vote.'
It was then revealed the three boys to receive the least amount of votes were Blade, Hugo and Ayo, while the girls were Jess, Emma and Jess Spencer.
The final decision as to who would leave was left to those at home, and ultimately Blade, Hugo, Emma and Jess were dumped.
Of her exit, Jess later said: 'It's a bittersweet moment, I always said if I made it past week one I’d be proud of myself, so to make it to week five is amazing.
'It was nothing like I expected, it was everything and more.'
Jess threw support behind her Welsh bestie Nicole, as she said: 'The relationships you form are so special, I'm so proud of everyone and think we will all be friends for life.
'I was like everyone's big sister but Samantha, Nicole and Uma were so lovely and people I hope to have in my life for a very long time. Nicole for the win, she's my little sister and best friend.'
Dishing the dirt on his connection with Grace, Blade admitted that while they were attracted to each other, the romance fizzled out.
The Love Island villa was in for a shock on Wednesday when a surprise dumping saw four people sent packing

He said: 'Grace is a great girl and although things fizzled out a bit towards the end, it was all good with us.
'In the end, we were slightly different people, as attracted as we were to each other we could only go so far, it was something we needed to find out and explore naturally, and that’s what we did. We had a great time.'

NAME: Mimii Ngulube
AGE: 24
FROM: Portsmouth
OCCUPATION: Mental Health Nurse
WHY LOVE ISLAND? The pool in Portsmouth is not giving. I've tried dating and speaking to people on social media and it just hasn't been successful. Applying was a spontaneous thing, I didn't expect to get here!
WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? My girls are my rocks and I'm theirs, so I'll be a good friend as well as going in there to find a man. I like dressing up, so I'll bring style, and I'd like to think I'm quite funny so I'll make people laugh. Bringing honesty as well - I'm good at picking up on people's personality traits and side-eyeing those who might be liars.

WHY LOVE ISLAND? I've always been one for relationships, and when you have found someone you want to be with it's the best feeling. Now is the perfect time, the one thing that is missing is my soulmate.
HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? Very loving, caring and thoughtful. I'm the kind of guy that, if you broke down on the motorway and needed your tyre changed, I'd be there at any time of night.

WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I think I'd bring excitement and joy. I think people would have someone to come to and talk to and feel comfortable being around or to have a laugh with. I think I'm somebody everyone would take to.
WHY SHOULD SOMEBODY DATE YOU? I feel like the way I carry myself is very respectful and I think people take to that and once you show who you are to somebody you get it back tenfold. The way I am gives off a good enough energy for people to feel comfortable around me.

WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? When I was in Malia on a boys holiday I pretended to be Liam Reardon from series 7 to get into a club because they wouldn't let us in. It worked and we ended up getting a private booth and free drinks all night.
