Love Island Viewers Furious as Ope Calls Angelista a Liar in Fiery Challenge
Love Island Viewers Furious Over Ope's 'Liar' Swipe

Love Island viewers were left fuming after an islander branded another a "liar." Ope suggested his former villa partner, Angelista, was a “liar” as the pair argued over her terrace antics.

Despite moving slowly with Ope, she wasted no time in kissing bombshell Simba. But while Ope was less than impressed, viewers at home were quick to call him out.

One user on X, formerly known as Twitter, said: "So Ope's calling Angelista a liar and saying she didn't care about his feelings when HE was the one who lied to her about being ok with the slow place and HE was the one who was rude about her on the dates. She had every right to get with Simba."

Another added: "Ope said Angelista is a liar, does he not know what he has been doing in the villa?" And a third said: "Ope talks fast and breathes heavily, like a liar."

Despite online users calling him out, Shakira came to his defence in Love Island: The Debrief. She said the moment was "humiliating" for Ope.

After Ope and Simba came to blows over Angelista, Priya received a text that sent shockwaves through the group. They were told that a challenge was ready to "test the waters" in a game of It's Not That Deep.

The challenge saw the Islanders take on a slippery mini-slide, and after landing in a pool, they must grab a drink and uncover a juicy secret about one of their fellow Islanders of the opposite sex.

When they made their pick, they must swill the islander they believed the comment was about. With revelations like "This boy has slept with 11 girls but can only recall 3 of their names," and "This boy’s friends would describe him as having a wandering eye," tension is quick to enter the villa.

And the spicy comments also come back as the boys learn more about the girls in the villa. Some of the boys become frustrated by some of the girls' commentary around their guesses, with some calling out the “hypocrisy” on show.

Aidan was quick to pick up on the tension and told the group the atmosphere was frosty. And his thoughts were correct as the rift between the boys and the girls became increasingly apparent.

"The girls have no idea," Sam said before Aidan said they were simply trying to "brush it off." The group tried to put a block on the issue, but when Ope referred to some of the girls’ comments during the challenge, he said: "I feel like there’s some things that people said that don’t align with what we thought you aligned with."

Aidan agreed, calling out the wandering eye comment. With tension rising, Yasmin and Jasmine decide to walk away from the conversation.

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