Love Island villa at war as Samantha erupts at Joey Essex and is dumped – as friction splits the villa in two

LOVE Island’s Samantha Kenny erupted at Joey Essex tonight as tensions boiled over in the villa.

The Liverpool lass was brutally dumped from the Majorca pad after being coupled up with Joey for two weeks.

It was all going well until Joey’s ex-girfriend Grace Jackson entered the ITV2 show on Friday and whisked him off to a second villa.

Tonight, the Towie legend faced Sam’s wrath when they returned and couldn’t keep their hands off each other – with Joey snogging the Manchester beauty in front of everyone.

Sheepish Joey said he wanted to stay in Samantha’s good books, but he refused to tone down the PDA and announced he was taking Grace for a cosy night in the Hideaway.

Pulling Samantha for a chat, Joey delivered the bad news, saying: “I want to let you know I’m gonna stay in the Hideaway with Grace.”

Samantha shot back: “That’s fine…I’ve seen you kissing over there before…

“Bit out of order, don’t you think? I’ve just been crying in their two hours ago and then you are kissing on the daybed.”

Fizzing with anger, Samantha stormed off and said under her breath: “P**k, a**e wipe.”

The frosty atmosphere spread through the villa the next day and Grace apologised to Samantha.

But Tiffany and Sean told her she had nothing to be sorry for.

Meanwhile Joey was taken to task by Samantha’s friend Jess.

She told him: “What I didn’t like was the insensitive, you handled it wrong.

“When you kissed her on this bed she could have easily have turned around and seen that. Given that she was in hysterics, crying earlier. She was heartbroken.

“From her point of view she’s had two weeks with you and not had that physical contact.

“It’s going to be a hard pill for Samantha to swallow. I just think she’s bound to feel a certain type of way. I know she didn’t tell you this but she really did like you.”

The Liverpool lass’s family broke their silence last night after Sam was left in floods of tears.

Samantha’s sister Toni took to Instagram to share her support after the upsetting scenes.

She wrote: “Nobody makes my little Sam cry.

“Proud beyond belief of how strong you are my love. Keep telling them all to get f***ed & keep being the star of that show. Your mans on his way.

“Thanks for everyone’s lovely comments we all see them all & couldn’t be prouder of our girl.”

Samantha was dumped from the show after a recoupling was announced.

Grace, and her two fellow bombshells were given first choice, leaving Samantha single at the end.

Her exit left the islanders in a state – with Nicole Samuel in floods of tears while Uma Jammeh looked shell-shocked.

It was a brutal end to a tough few days following Grace’s shock arrival.
