Love Island fans have called out contestants Anna Vakili and Amber Gill over their behaviour towards Danny Williams and Arabella Chi.

Tuesday night’s episode saw the pair fume as new couple Danny and Arabella shared their first kiss just moments after the departure of his former partner Yewande Biala.

Yewande was sent home after Danny chose to recouple with Arabella, with her close friends Anna and Amber not taking the news well.

The pair watched on in disbelief as Danny and Arabella locked lips, before then calling him over for a confrontation as the girls believed he was staring at them.

“Is there a problem? Just checking, it just looks like there’s an issue,” she asked him.

As Danny claimed Amber was the one causing problems, Anna repeatedly dismissed him, saying: “Boy, bye!”

Believing Danny was then bitching about her to the rest of the group, Amber approached him and said: “I just want to say I gave you an opportunity to squash anything there so don’t say anything further about the situation unless it’s directly to those people over there.”

As Danny insisted Amber “had his word” that if he “had a problem, he’d bring it to [her]”, she bit back: “Your word doesn’t really mean that much at this point does it? You’re giving me your word when your word means fuck all.”

Arabella further riled Amber when she pointed out all couples will “be tested” in the villa, to which she responded: “I know what I signed up to, thanks for enlightening us though. I didn’t know before you said that.”

As tensions continued to mount in the wake of Yewande’s exit, Amber and Anna were criticised for the way they had acted on Twitter.

#Danny is clearly a great guy and hasn’t done anything wrong. Him and #Arabella clearly have an amazing connection, it was clear from day one. #Amber and #Anna were utter bullies then. Bad move. Everyone has forgotten how badly #Yewande treated Danny for DAYS! #loveisland

Well; Yewande,Amber & Annas behaviour just reinforce the fact that Danny did the right thing. I'm on his team along with Lucie,Maura,Arabella & Anton. How long will this divide last? 🤔#loveisland

Amber and Anna are pathetic and immature. Let's not forget when they were all laughing on the terrace when the boys were having dates with Maura and Elma....pathetic little girls - They need to get over it. Yewande deserved to leave, bore off love. #LoveIsland

Amber and Anna are cancelled and anybody who thinks that behaviour is ok is probably as mature as Tesco value wine

However, there were also people who defended the pair from criticism, pointing out that they were sticking up for their friend who Danny had treated badly.

People fail to understand that amber and anna aren’t being bitches just bc their friend left they’re angry because yewande didn’t deserve to be lied to and manipulated.... #Loveisland

Amber and Anna are the definition of a girls, girls. You can call it childish but I know for a FACT if any of my mates got mugged off by some lad & I saw that lad necking on with a girl less than a day later best believe I’m not going to be okay with it! #LoveIsland

clearly the people who aren’t understanding amber and anna’s level of irritation rn are the people who have never felt what yewande felt or the same people who have had a friend feel like yewande felt. u saw the poor girl cry. try & have some understanding:/ #LoveIsland

The girls later agreed to call a truce and move forward with Arabella and Danny.

Speaking after her exit, she said: “I feel like if he does get to know her, it’s not going to work. There are so many factors – they’re so different, and the age gap. You have to be realistic. He’s just starting his life – he’s only 21.

“They are in two different phases of their lives. In the villa, it’s very easy to forget.”

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2.
