Hugo Hammond found himself in hot water on tonight's episode of Love Island after he stated his preference for girls who aren't 'fake'.
Tonight's episode of Love Island featured the bombshell of two new Islanders entering the villa.
But before the drama of the new arrivals, the contestants took part in a game where the couple's try to guess each other's answers to personal questions in a bid to find out more about one another.

When discussing each other's turn-ons and turn-offs, Hugo admitted his type was, "leggy blonde, not fake."
However, his choice of words sparked outrage amongst the fellow Islanders.
Faye said: "That word keeps getting thrown around, doesn’t it?"
Earlier in the game, the islanders had discussed cosmetic procedures they had undergone, with many of the girls stating they had breast augmentations, fillers and botox done.
Once Hugo realised how much he offended some of the contestants, he burst into tears.
He said: "I was so shocked it was interpreted as it did because I obviously had no intentions of upsetting anyone."
After a heart-to-heart with Faye, who opened up about her own insecurities and explained why the word fake "doesn't brush well with her", the islanders eventually made up and put the issue behind them.
However, fans of the show took to Twitter to show their support for Hugo.
