‘Love Island’ Viewers Had The Best Reactions To The Georgia ‘Loyal’ Steel And Sam Bird Twist

😂 😂 😂

‘Love Island’ producers served up what might be the twist of the series on Monday night, with a move that will surely spell the end for Georgia Steel’s “loyalty” declarations.

The episode saw Caroline Flack enter the villa and explain that viewers had been voting for their favourite couples, revealing that the two with the least votes were Megan Barton Hanson and Wes Nelson, and Georgia Steel and Sam Bird.

The host then revealed the first part of the twist, explaining that the couples’ fates were in the hands of their fellow Islanders, who had to choose one duo to stay.

After struggling to make a decision, they eventually decided to save Wes and Megan - but this wasn’t the end for Georgia and Sam.

Oh dear
Oh dear

This is the best bit. Ready?

Caroline gave Georgia and Sam a simple choice: If you want to stay together then leave the island as a couple. If you’re prepared to split, you can stay.

So what did they do? What did Georgia I’m-so-loyal-the-most-loyal-always-and-forever Steel agree to? They split, obviously.

Naturally, Twitter had a field day with their decision…

Many viewers pointed out Georgia had perhaps been a little hypocritical, given the tough time she gave Josh Denzel when he ditched her for Kaz Crossley:

After complaining for weeks on end that Josh left her although they weren’t together, Georgia’s excuse is now that her and Sam weren’t officially together??? #loveisland pic.twitter.com/MrA2y1ELxd

Oh. So now Georgia knows she isn’t in a relationship with Sam but she didn’t apply that logic to Josh? Oh. Ooooh. #loveisland

Georgia saying how her and Sam aren’t together properly so it’s fine for her to see other people. Hmmm WELL , it was a whole different story when josh came back with kaz wasn’t it 🤷🏻♀️ #loveisland

It wasn’t all bad though and the couple did get some support on Twitter:

Unpopular opinion but I think Georgia and Sam did the right thing, it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to be on Love Island, they may as well enjoy the rest of the experience, and just couple up as friends with people? Worked for Dr Alex for months 🤷🏻♀️ #LoveIsIand

Am I the only person that’s Team Georgia right now? The poor girl has been through shit and still as strong as hell! Go girl power! Josh and Kaz should go do one. They are such haters #loveisland

Unpopular opinion but Dani and Jack have just been absolute twats. I literally don't understand why everyone's kicking off? They didn't moan at Samira for staying? Yet Georgia and Sam are both staying. The islanders are being dickheads 👋🏻 #loveisland

Josh always slagging Georgia off like he’s trying to prove to everyone that he made the right decision when he fucked her over to be with Kaz. #LoveIsland

Gentle reminder Georgia slept outside with Rosie when she was upset/alone, was the only one who followed Laura after the Wes/Meg situation and did respect her potential relationship with Josh when he was in Casa Amor! She does something stupid and everyone forgets smh #loveisland

And finally, bonus points go to musician Loyle Carner:

Who the fuck is Georgia and why does she keep saying my name?

The episode also showed the aftermath of the eviction, including one scene where Dani Dyer was (once again) the voice of the nation, getting rather exasperated with Georgia and explaining her confusion.

She told her pal: “Honestly, if you liked him enough you would have gone [home] with him.

“Rather than saying, ‘I’m honest, I’m loyal,’ but you don’t have any loyalties to each other.

“I wanted the best for you two, this ain’t a test.

“I think you’ve made a stupid fucking decision and you’re going to be crying George, and you’re [Sam] going to be upset.”

Loyal Love Island’ continues tonight at 9pm on ITV.
