Love Island fans were bewildered during Thursday night’s episode as the Islanders broke down in tears after being told they would be receiving calls from home.
While the boys headed off for a lads’ day out, the girls were surprised by a text telling them they were about to have video calls with their loved ones.
The news sent the girls into a spin, with Arabella Chi in particular in floods of tears.
Viewers were left baffled by the reaction, with many pointing out that the Islanders have been away for less than a month.
‘Why is arabella crying you’ve only been in there 3 weeks please,’ tweeted one.
Another joked ‘Why are they crying like they’ve been stranded on an island and a helicopters come to rescue them.’
‘Me tryna figure out why they’re all crying for being paid to go on holiday to find love?’ quipped another.
Others laughed at the fact that Sophie Piper was just as bemused by the drama as viewers, pointing out: ‘lol all the girls crying like banshees while Sophie just side eyes them.’
After the video calls took place fans praised Olivia Attwood and her husband Bradley Dack for revealing what the public think about Molly Smith and Callum Jones.
Olivia and Bradley called close pal Georgia Harrison from the Loose Women studios and recalled what the majority of the UK has been wanting – exes Callum and Molly to get back together.
In recent episodes, fans have gone wild for the exes to get back together, with some begging producers to rig their pulse rate to match each other in the challenge.
After days of fans wanting to climb through their screens and try and get the duo back together, Olivia and Bradley were the ones to relay the information.
Olivia said: ‘Brad thinks Molly and Callum are going to get back together’, before the footballer appeared on screen to say hello.
Relaying the news back to Molly, Georgia said: ‘Brad thinks you and Callum still like each other a little bit’.
Taken aback, Molly said: ‘What? Why?’ with Georgia Steel chipping in to say her pal Dani Dyer had said the same thing.
Fans flooded X, formerly known as Twitter, in relief and hope that the information might make Molly and Callum rethink their decision and try to work things out.
Some wrote: ‘THANK YOU OLIVIA ATTWOOD.’
‘Thank you Olivia Attwood Dani Dyer and Bradley Dack for bringing up the Molly and Callum situation.’
‘Olivia Attwood telling Georgia H on video chat that the public want molly and Callum to get back together.’
‘Olivia Attwood Dack, Bradley Dack and Dani Dyer doing the work of the people speaking to the girls about Molly and Callum yassssssssssss!!!’
