Love Island fans spot huge red flag shortly before Jake and Liberty's 'explosive split'

Love Island is about to be rocked by some of the most explosive scenes of the series so far as Jake and Liberty's romance crumbles - and viewers are convinced they spotted the warning signs.

At the end of last night's episode, Liberty was telling Jake she didn't think they were meant to be together.

She was seen breaking down in tears before storming away and ripping her microphone off.

The scenes are due to air tonight, but fans of the show are convinced they spotted a huge red flag in last night's episode which could have prompted the meltdown

The previous episode featured the show's baby challenge, in which the Islanders are presented with dolls they have to look after like a real child.

During one scene, Jake was seen speaking to Millie and Liam as the Essex beauty cared for their fake baby and he appeared to gush over the "yummy mummy".

As Liberty sat beside him, Jake said: "From a lad’s point of view, you see Mils with a baby, I know it's a doll but you fancy them more don’t you. It’s sexy...

"It’s like a yummy mummy. I find it sexy when you have a mum who is very protective.”

Many viewers weren't happy with his comments, claiming he seems to find it easy to compliment the other boys' partners but doesn't do the same for Liberty.

One tweeted: "#LoveIsland the issue i have with Jake is that he has no problem asking the other boys how attractive they find their partner 'sexy yummy mummy'...,

"But will die if he compliments liberty."

Another wrote: "Jake GOES OUF OF HIS WAY to call other women sexy in front Liberty. The man is such an idiot #loveisland."

A third added: "Jake we get it… you think Millie is sexy relax with the compliments when you’re in front of your GIRLFRIEND."

Another suggested Jake wasn't paying enough attention to his girlfriend, who was sitting next to him, and instead lavished praise on Millie.

They wrote: "That scene where Jake was asking Liam if he thinks Millie looked sexy with the baby and made him fancy her more.. didn’t even say 1 word to Lib.or MENTION her in that convo whilst she’s sitting next to him."

Jake has previously admitted Millie is his "type" in a frank conversation with Liberty, but insisted he was only interested in her because she's his "girlfriend".

Liberty has had a rocky week with Jake after calling him out over fears he might not like her as much as he says.

She pulled him up on not saying "I love you" during a tense chat on the terrace, and he then went ahead and dropped the L bomb much to her delight.

However, the other girls voiced their worry about his timing and it led to further tensions between the pair.

Things appeared to have been sorted out between them, but the romance appears to crumble in tonight's show.

Viewers will have to tune in tonight to find out what happens niext.

Love Island returns to ITV2 and ITV Hub at 9pm tonight.
