Love Island’s Tyrique leaves viewers in hysterics over Glasgow name blunder
LOVE Island contestant Tyrique Hyde left viewers in stitches after a hilarious name blunder during tonight’s episode.
The semi-professional footballer, 23, was coupled up with Scot Ella Thomas, 23, from Glasgow as the new series kicked off.
The hit ITV2 reality show was back on our screens for the second time this year with its summer season.
And fans were left in hysterics during a conversation between Tyrique and Ella.
The pair chatted on the day bed getting to know each other, despite previously meeting before.
During their conversation, Tyrique asked the Scots beauty: “What do you call people from Glasgow again? Glasgow-wegian?”
Ella then laughed and corrected him saying: “No, Glaswegian. Glaswegians.”
Viewers found the blunder hilarious, one person tweeted: “Not Glasgow-wegian LOL.”
Another wrote: “Glasgow-wegian… get that so far to f***.”
And a third commented: “Glasgow what??”
It was revealed in the show that the couple met each other before in a club in London.
But Tyrique failed to remember their previous encounter.
However, Ella managed to re-jog his memory after she told him that she had blonde hair at the time they met.
The latest series kicked off tonight by introducing a twist in the opening episode.
In a new shake-up, female and male Islanders entered the villa together.
It meant sparks could fly from the off between couples – as the original line-up format was ditched.
This is the first time ever that Love Island has aired two series of the show in one year.
There was meant to be a second season of the reality series in the summer of 2020, after the winter version made its debut.
However, the pandemic hit, and Love Island didn’t return until the following year.
