Love Island’s Tom explodes at Shaq after ‘cruel’ wind-up – but whose side are you on?
LOVE Island fans were sharpy divided last night after Tom Clare and Shaq Muhammad tore into each other.
The pair were at loggerheads after the airport security officer started a wind-up that many insisted went too far.
It ended with Tom telling him to “f*** off” while Shaq branded him a “big baby” in return.
Viewers were in two camps – with one saying Tom was “childish and aggressive” for getting upset over a sports day.
But other slammed Shaq for trying to annoy his friend to such a degree.
One wrote: “One of my pet peeves is ppl not knowing when a joke is no longer a joke. Tom was clearly getting irritated & didn’t find it funny.”
“Shaq should’ve stopped at that very point. But no, he kept going & at Tom’s expense. Tom that was holding you when you were bawling.”
Shaq goaded the footballer after his team triumphed in the sporting challenge – but he was in no mood for it.
Tom fumed: “Enough’s enough. Mates don’t do that. Friends don’t do that.”
He was initially seen trying to look like he wasn’t bothered but it was soon clear he was silently fuming at the remarks.
Tom snapped: “Why are you on me all the time? It’s done, it was funny the first time bro. Just f*** off bro, just leave it.”
Shaq replied: “What do you mean? It’s a joke. You’re a grown man. You lost a sports day challenge. Relax. Actually relax.”
Tom looked like he was struggling to stay composed, replying: “Shaq I’m not going to tell you again bro. I’m not going to tell you again.”
In the end, Tanya Manhenga took Shaq away telling him: “Stop being petty. You’re being naughty. Babe, that was bad.”
He insisted: “I’ve had my fun now.”
She added: “You’re going to have to straighten it out now. That’s what’s annoying about these things. It’s awkward now.”
