Love Island fans tell Liberty to 'run' after she has doubts about Jake

Love Island's Jake and Liberty seem to have lost the title of fan favourite after some criticised Jake's behaviour in Thursday's episode.

After Tyler and Kaz became exclusive, the pair returned to the main outdoor area to be congratulated by their fellow islanders.

Jake and Liberty could be seen by the fire pit with Liberty prepared join the group and celebrate with Kaz, her closest friend in the villa, when Jake insisted they stay and wait for the newly-exclusive couple to approach them.

This did not sit well with fans with one saying: "How controlling did that make Jake look? Not letting Lib give Kaz a cuddle. He's becoming a walking red flag, what a strange little man."

"Jake stopping Liberty from hugging Kaz was so weird but tactical imo. He knows that it will just be him and Liberty on the camera screen instead of being lost by the crowd. He is so clearly playing a game," said another.

In tonight's episode, we see Liberty confront Jake after the Dirty Dancing challenge.

Sitting on the terrace, Liberty said: “I do feel like since the whole rip the clothes off comment, I’ve been noticing a lot of similar things that have accumulated.”

After tense discussion, Jake said: "I don’t know what more I can say. You are my girlfriend. You are part of me."

Some fans criticised Jake's response with one saying: "Jake saying “I made you my girlfriend” constantly like Lib should be grateful for the honour is serious red flag vibes."

"no bc i need someone to stream tonights episode for me i cant sleep knowing liberty's heart might get broken" said another.

One viewer had this advice for Liberty: "Dont walk away Liberty...run!!"

Another came up with a plan B: "If Liberty doesn’t leave Jake we need her to stay in until the family meets the islanders and pray her family/friends tell her too she will trust their opinion more and get gone"

While another simply hoped for more excitement saying: "I need Libby to leave Jake in a very dramatic manner. Give that slimy showman a show."

Love Island continues 9 pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
