Love Island fans have shared their thoughts on new girl Maura Higgins, with some stating they feel “uncomfortable” about scenes featuring the Irish 28-year-old and Tommy Fury.

Friday’s show saw Maura continue fighting for Tommy’s affections and making no secret of the fact she has feelings for the boxer.

When the Islanders were going to bed, Tommy initially decided to sleep on the sofa and Maura did her best to convince him to join her in the bedroom.

While talking to Tommy in the living room, she leaned over and tried to kiss him, planting her lips on his cheek as he turned away.

Her behaviour did not go down well with viewers:

May be an unpopular opinion I want Tommy to choose Molly.... Maura is a little too much... class for 1 episode now sat here and feel uncomfortable #loveisland

Maura is not “sexy”, she is a whole 28 years old being a desperate predator. We only claim Megan as the ultimate bad bitch #LoveIsland pic.twitter.com/BERuKorbdl

Others also claimed her antics would not be tolerated if the duo’s genders were different:

sorry but if that was Tommy to Maura imagine the outrage? he was literally like no I’m not kissing you get off #LoveIsland

Imagine the backlash a man would get for crawling on top of a woman and trying to force a kiss 😅🤷🏽♂️

Right I'm not being funny but. Maura is 28. Tommy is 20. She is objectifying him, commenting on his body constantly, hasn't mentioned a single thing about his personality AND IS FORCING HIM TO KISS HER. I'm just saying if this was a guy there would be a war #loveisland

Maura behaviour is disgusting, if a man was to behave like that towards a woman it would be sexual harassment.. she needs to go #LoveIsland

Omg that Irish girl is a piece of work rolls reversed and Tommy kept going in for a kiss and harassing her he would be kicked off and people would think he was a Predator but is it ok for her to act like this ? ?

Imagine if Tommy was Maura, constantly talking about how he wants to shag her and kept on inviting her into bed and she kept declining and being polite, yet he still carried on anyway. Now Tommy starts to force a kiss on her on top of that, he would be ripped apart #LoveIsland

HuffPost UK has contacted a show spokesperson for any comment on the situation.

After spurning Maura’s advances, Tommy returned to the bedroom to sleep next to Molly-Mae, who he is officially coupled up with.

The two women both have feelings for the boxer and Thursday’s show resulted in numerous showdowns, when Tommy told Molly-Mae he wanted to get to know Maura too.

Love Island does not air tonight (Saturday 15 June) but it’ll back on Sunday and the latest teaser revealed Molly-Mae will confront her love rival.
