Speaking at the fire pit, Jess tells Sammy: “I wanted to be honest with you about the Mitch situation. You’re not cutting yourself off, so why should I cut myself off?” Confused, Sammy says: “I’d understand more if it was a bombshell.”
As the pair go back and forth on their feelings, where does this leave the couple moving forward? And where does it leave Mitch?

The Islanders had been enjoying a delicious breakfast in the garden, with conversations including whether Whitney would ever move to France, how closed off Tyrique really is following his night at the Hideaway with Ella and whether there is a connection between Catherine and Scott.
But in a brand new twist, Maya unexpectedly arrives to break up the fun. As the Islanders take in her sudden arrival, she says: “This is a bit of a surprise isn’t it? Stay where you are, this won’t take long. I hope you’re enjoying your cute brunch and time together. Well, as you know, finding your perfect match isn’t always easy.
“You guys are all living together, spending every moment together. You all have a front row seat into everyone’s relationship. You see first hand how it all goes down.

It is not yet known what will happen to couples who are voted the least compatible, but our guess is there could be a lot at stake. You can tune in to the episode on ITV2 or ITVX at 9pm.
