Love Island fans frustrated by host Laura Whitmore's 'annoying habit' in Casa Amor show

Love Island fans were on the edge of their seats during last night's recoupling - but some viewers took to Twitter to moan about the show's host.

As the drama unfolded, many grew frustrated with Laura Whitmore's presenting style.

The viewers felt the 37-year-old was speaking "so slowly", and urged her to "get a move on" as they waited on baited breath to see if the couples would twist or stick.

"I'm sorry but Laura is annoying tf out of me why must she explain it every time someone comes in #LoveIsland." @preethepre said: "LAURA WE GET IT MOVE ON #LoveIsland," one wrote.

Another agreed, adding: "She speaking so slowly, lets pick up the pace a bit PLEEZ #loveisland."

One asked: "Is it me or is Laura speaking slowly #LoveIsland."

"laura whitmore talks too slow for my liking. like get on with it!! #LoveIsland." @lovsjaehy echoed: "HURRY UP LAURA OMG #loveisland," another wrote.

"Laura speak faster please #LoveIsland." @21DaughterOfGod added: "Laura, Laura sis pleasee. Speed up. #LoveIsland," a fourth chimed.

But not everyone agreed, one wrote: "Laura is so beautiful Ian (the show's commentator) must be starstruck every day.

Another added: "Why is Laura Whitmore getting so much grief for presenting Love Island she does a good job ! She’s also filled the spot of good friend that she lost so it still must sting ! Has everyone forgot #bekind".

Many also praised her new pink hair, with one writing "Love love @thewhitmore's new hair," adding a fire emoji.

Following the dramatic episode, Laura appeared on Capital Breakfast and revealed the couples she is backing to land a spot in the show's final.

"At the moment the strongest couple seem to be Gemma and Luca, but I don’t think they’ll win, I think they’ll be in the final. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ekin-Su and Davide win," she told Capital Breakfast on Friday.

"I think they’ll be in the final, I also think some of the couples that aren’t together now will get back together," she added.
