Love Island All Stars viewers were quick to criticise Lucinda Strafford for a 'shocking' blunder during Wednesday's episode, following a conversation with Belle Hassan about Sean Stone. The trio have been embroiled in a love triangle, with Lucinda and Sean choosing to explore a connection while Belle and Tommy Bradley were away at Villa USA.
During a heart-to-heart, Lucinda told Belle: 'I'm really sorry, I do feel dreadful...you deserve better than him [Sean] anyway.' Belle responded by referencing Sean's behaviour in a kissing challenge, adding: 'I pray you don't get hurt.' Later, Sean attempted to apologise to Belle, but she dismissed him, saying: 'I literally don't care about what's coming out of your mouth.'
Fans took to social media to point out the apparent contradiction in Lucinda's words and actions. One viewer wrote: 'lol "you deserve better than him" as you're coupled up with him Lucinda is shocking.' Another commented: 'Lucinda you're telling Belle she can do better than Sean but then why are you with him then?'
Others echoed the sentiment, with one fan posting: 'Lucinda saying Belle deserves better than Sean, while staying with Sean.' Another added: 'You do deserve better than him" lucinda you're literally with him babe.' The backlash highlights the ongoing drama in the villa as relationships continue to shift.
Love Island All Stars airs Sunday to Friday on ITV2 and ITVX.
