Love Island's Sharon hits it off with newbie Danny after he chooses her for second date

Love Island's Sharon Gaffka and Danny Bibby could end up being a hot new couple after they went on a date with one another.

Viewers caught a glimpse of Danny during Thursday's episode when he arrived for a private one-on-one with Kaz Kamwi.

It's now been revealed that Danny's second choice was Sharon, who is currently in a friendly couple with Hugo Hammond.

However, Kaz was lucky enough to go first and was clearly excited as she got ready with the rest of the girls in the villa.

As the pair started getting to know one another on their date, the conversation soon turned to fashion.

Danny told Kaz: "I’m just starting my own clothing brand. I’m a very ambitious guy, and you seem the same."

He then added: "I’ve recently bought my first house, so I live with my cat. Me and my cat."

Kaz seemed impressed and replied: "Someone driven and someone who makes an effort."

Meanwhile, back at the Villa Sharon was sat at the fire pit when she received a text, which read: “Sharon. It’s time for your date with Danny! Please get ready to leave the Villa! #pipedreams #nomorefriendisland."

And during their date, Danny asked Sharon: "Tell me a bit about yourself. What’s your five year plan? I’m very much an ambitious guy."

Sharon simply replied: "Ambition is really important to me."

Danny then added: "It’s really important to me as well. I need someone that sees themselves going to the top as well."

So, with both dates appearing to have gone well, Danny may have a tough decision on his hands when it comes to the re-coupling.

But viewers felt it was Sharon who was more interested in getting with Danny, and took to Twitter to comment.

"Sharon is doing too much cringe #LoveIsland," one posted, while another tweeted: "Sharon is moving thirsty #LoveIsland."

A third wrote: "Sharon is INVESTED honey #LoveIsland," while a fourth added: "Sharon is trying HARD for Danny #LoveIsland."

It comes after some Love Island viewers were already calling for him to get the boot after eagle-eyed fans noticed an old social media post that used the N-word.

The budding reality star has already been plunged into controversy after super sleuth viewers trawled through his social media and noticed a comment that read: "My n****."

Followers that had spotted the remark quickly warned the people running Danny's social media to take the post down, and it was swiftly deleted.

The post in question, which has been removed, was dated from 2019 and featured his profile using the word in response to a pal.

However, it had already sparked fury among viewers that demanded Danny be removed and even threatened to call Ofcom.

Love Island continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2.
