Love Island gaslighting row as fans accuse girl of manipulating partner after Casa Amor recoupling
LOVE Island fans have slammed Catherine for “gaslighting” Scott after she screamed at him during last night’s episode.
The Casa Amor recoupling left Scott single as Catherine returned to the main villa with new man Elom.
In the hope of explaining her actions, Catherine pulled Scott for a chat, but things didn’t go as planned as she ripped into him.
Viewers were appalled by her shock behaviour and said Scott had every right to react the way he did.
One wrote: “She is very insensitive, treating Scott like that is actually cruel.”
A second posted: “Catherine gaslighting Scott is really unfair because if it was the other way round and he did that, she would not be happy. How can you try and make him feel bad for being loyal to you?
A third echoed: “And screaming! Like even Whitney told you calm down…”
This person said: “Catherine loves the word DISRESPECTFUL. The only thing disrespectful is her! Kissing Elom right after conversation with Scott. Joker!”
Another commented: “Catherine stop trying to manipulate & gaslight Scott,” while this viewer agreed and wrote: “Catherine trying to gaslight Scott when she was the one who decided to recouple after casa.”
The pair tried to clear the air but things soon became heated.
She told him: “First of all, I want to say I didn’t appreciate the way you tried to spin that.
“You haven’t even heard me…you don’t know what I’ve based my decisions off…at the end of the day, I met Elom and Elom is great.
“It’s given me more time to figure this out.”
He replied: “Catherine, there is no time…out of the girls that came in you were my number one…”
Catherine then asked Scott: “Do you think for a second you weren’t my number one?”
It seems the two may have to agree to disagree as Scott then mentioned previously confronting the other Islanders for doubting his feelings for Catherine
Scott said: “Well, clearly not…four days ago I sat everyone round the fire pit.”
Catherine fired back: “It wasn’t for me Scott, it was for you.”
Scott assured her: “It was for you…big things are how I show my affection.”
Catherine screamed: “You didn’t do that for me!”
As the conversation continued, Catherine called on Whitney to help mediate the situation.
Whitney looked stunned and urged her: “Cat, compose your emotions, calm down.”
Catherine later told the girls that she has a connection with new man Elom and the pair shared a kiss.
Many viewers were shocked by Catherine’s behaviour towards Scott and have predicted that she’ll be axed next.
