East Lothian Love Island star Jay Younger has been the object of many viewer's affection for all the wrong reasons as he wreaks havoc across the villa during his stint on the show. The Musselburgh boy is currently coupled up with Ekin-Su, after nabbing the beauty from Italian man Davide.
However, the local lad has his eye on new girl Antigoni Buxton, which has caused quite the stir between both contestants and viewers alike. This created the ultimate showdown between Jay and Ekin-Su, as the Love Island girl even stole a quote from her former coupling Davide.

In a preview for Thursday night's episode, Ekin-Su raged: "It's just hit me now what you've done. You're telling me you want to get to know Paige.
"She's in a secure relationship. Do you know how muggy that makes you look? Apparently I was the player in here, but the biggest player in this villa is you. You deserve the biggest Oscar in here."
Jay replies saying: "I was getting to know you and things... things..." But Ekin-Su claps back saying: "Well done. You should just f*** off, Jay."
This had fans reeling with the realisation of Ekin's words, as one Twitter user wrote: "Ekin Su got issues yo. I was trying to validate where she was coming from but now she doing too much coming at Jay like her. He deserves an Oscar? For what?! Girl bye. #LoveIsland."
