Last night, viewers saw rugby player Jacques O’Neill enter the villa and Gemma exclaimed: “Oh my god, that’s my ex-boyfriend.”

Later, the Castleford Tigers player, 23, left Gemma stunned when he said he wanted to flirt with her and admitted he “still cares”.

It left Luca Bish reeling, after he had swiped Gemma the night before from Italian hunk Davide during the first recoupling.

Gemma is also set to face another ex as Cameron Green gets ready to make his Love Island debut.

But viewers have said they’re already getting tired of the series being all about the 19-year-old beauty.

“This Gemma island stuff has to STOP!! It’s time to boycott,” moaned one viewer on Twitter.

A second added: “an we all boycott love island to get rid of Gemma please”

And a third wrote: “We didn’t ask for the Gemma show.”

Friday night’s instalment of the ITV2 show saw the boys picking the girls they wanted to be with in a dramatic shake-up.

During the recoupling ceremony, 23-year-old fishmonger Luca, who had been coupled up with Paige, picked the dressage-rider after confessing his true feelings.

Stood around the fire pit, he said: “I would like to couple up with this girl because ever since she walked through that door she caught my eye.

“She’s a right sort, getting to know her throughout the week I’ve noticed she’s got the personality to go with that.

“I like that she can look after herself and she don’t give too much away and I look forward to seeing how things progress.

“Obviously it wasn’t an easy decision and probably until I was sat here right now I didn’t know what I was gonna do.

“I said when I come in here I’d stay true to myself and hopefully that pays off.”

The episode saw 27-year-old Davide Sanclimenti choose actress Ekin-Su Culculoglu who entered the show as a bombshell on Thursday.
