Gemma Owen has accused fellow Love Island contestant Ekin-Su Culculoglu of "loving causing drama" after a fiery exchange on the ITV dating show.
Monday's episode saw Gemma, daughter of footballer Michael Owen, confront Ekin-Su over "d******* behaviour" after rumours were spread about her feelings for her partner on the show, Luca Bish.
The situation began earlier in the day when Dubliner Dami Hope attempted to read Gemma's mind on how she regarded her relationship with Luca.
He said: "You're happy with Luca right now.
"I feel like it would take a lot for your head to turn but there is a small chance that it probably could if someone really came in that was 100% you.
"I feel like that is where the confusion would probably come for you because we're not here to play games.
"I feel like you're still open in a sense, probably more open than Luca."
Gemma admitted: "Yeah, that was quite impressive. I don't think you're that far wrong."
Ekin-Su later relayed the "reading" to Paige Thorne and Jacques O'Neill, who proceeded to tell his friend Luca.
As news got back to Gemma about Ekin-Su's conversations, Gemma confronted Ekin-Su, saying: "You have started this, you've made drama over nothing."
"People need to concentrate on their own dramas., Then, if your relationship is perfect, then you can give me advice but until then keep your nose out of it," she continued.
"You've spoken about what Dami said about me... hung to the bit you knew was going to cause the most drama and run with it.
"I think that's d******* behaviour...maybe you should just keep your nose out of other people's business and shut up."
Speaking later in the beach hut, Gemma continued: "She has no right to say that and she knew by saying that she was going to cause s***.
"She is just loving causing drama at the minute and it's starting to wind everyone up."
Gemma later clarified her feelings, saying: "If someone comes in here that's like 100% my type, I have a better connection than with Luca, I get better on with than Luca, and I like more than Luca then, of course, I'm going to be open to getting to know whoever that person is.
"Do I think that's likely? No."
She later reconciled with Luca, after he told her the situation had made him feel "like a right muppet", but admitted the exchange was still "a bit frosty".
Love Island continues on Virgin Media Two and ITV2.
