Love Island favourite Ovie in tears - and fans slam Anna for 'wicked' reaction

Love Island fan favourite Ovie Soko broke down in tears during tonight's dumping.

The popular Islander was desperate to keep his closest pal in the villa, telling Anna Vakili: "If George leaves I'm basically by myself."

But heartless Anna Vakili was not willing to listen and revealed they were voting to save Amy Hart and Curtis Pritchard instead of Lucie Donlan and George Rains.

Announcing their decision, Anna said: "Particularly the guy is very close friends with Ovie, but..."

Suddenly Ovie leaned forward as he broke down in tears - but Anna didn't realise how upset he was.

"Oh is he crying?" asked Anna, with Molly-Mae Hague confirming to her that Ovie was "upset".

Regaining his composure, emotional Ovie said: "I’m cool man. I’m cool. I'm cool."

Lucie, who was also in tears, said: "Awww bless him."

The basketball player then stormed off, closely followed by Anna, after Lucie and George's fate was sealed.

He said: "I’m supposed to be one of his only friends and I’m not even fighting for him."

George gave Ovie a big hug before he walked out of the villa, telling him: "Alright big man. See you on the outside.

Ovie added: "I sort of put the ball in Anna's court and it hurt me because I feel I didn't stick up for my mate. It's a bitter pill to swallow."

Outraged Love Island viewers took to Twitter to blast Anna for her behaviour.

One viewer said: "YOU KNOW HOW HAPPY I FELT SEEING ANNA CRY JUST THEN, serves u right for making ovie cry and invalidating men’s emotions x"

"Seeing Anna smirk at ovie crying makes me so angry ... GET HER OUT - sincerely the entire UK x," added another.

A third said: "Anna is such a selfish b****, couldn’t she do one thing for ovie by saving his best mate after ditching him for Jordan"

"Anna is wicked for not comforting Ovie not even a simple back rub," said a fourth.

*Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2
