Love Island fans ‘work out’ couple who secretly refused night in the Hideaway – but it ‘wasn’t shown on camera’
LOVE Island fans are convinced that Sophie Piper and Joshua Ritchie secretly refused a night in the Hideaway tonight.
The Islanders picked Arabella Chi and Adam Maxted to spend a night away from their co-stars in the privacy of the romantic bedroom.
But fans were baffled that the newest couple was picked, over other couples who have been together in the villa for longer.
Some viewer quickly took to social media viewers and claimed Sophie Piper and Josh Ritchie were originally picked, but said no because of her very famous family.
Sophie is the sister of This Morning presenter Rochelle Humes and her brother-in-law is JLS and I’m A Celeb star Marvin Humes.
One viewer wrote: “Sophie has famous family members, might not want to embarrass them.”
A second posted: “Adam and Arabella to the hideaway before Sophie and Josh? What even.”
“Sophie and Josh might have said no to The Hideaway. Amber S5 refused to do it, so did Faye and Teddy,” a third commented.
A fourth shared: “Adam and Arabella? Does this mean that Sophie & josh and Molly & Tom said no?”
This person added: “It literally makes no sense to me. I can imagine Sophie being quite private and probably be thinking of her family so not want to go to it for that reason. Not sure about Tom & Molly.
“I mean you can go to Hideaway for private time but there is no onus to do anything. I just think it’s unearned to send Arabella and Tom over couples who have a better connection and have been together longer.”
Tonight, Arabella and Max got to escape the prying eyes on their villa co-stars.
Living up to his wrestling persona, the boys introduced Adam ‘Big Flex’ Masted as he appeared in his wrestling pants.
Adam told his villa partner: “Big Flex has entered the hideaway…do you know what I’ve never made it to the hideaway before…and I wouldn’t want to be here with anyone else.”
Arabella replied: “I’ve definitely got feelings towards you that I haven’t had towards anyone else in here and that excites me a lot.”
The refreshed Hideaway is supposed to allow for an even more intimate experience.
The show’s executive producer Mike Spencer told us in an exclusive interview: “I think this is the sexiest Hideaway we’ve ever had.
“It’s the most seductive hideaway we’ve ever done. It just feels so intimate and romantic.
“It feels quite private and tucked away here.”
