Love Island fans in hysterics as Maura's mum bats Curtis out of the way to hug Ovie

Maura Higgins' mum quickly became a fan favourite on Love Island tonight as she didn't hide who she really wanted to see - and it wasn't Curtis Pritchard.

Tonight, the Islanders were all left in tears as their families entered the villa.

First to appear were Curtis and Maura's families, who ran towards the Islanders to give them a hug.

Maura's mum was quick to wrap her arms around Curtis as she said hello, but quickly pushed away from him when she spotted basketball player Ovie Soko.

She exclaimed: "This is the man I want to see!"
