From Day dot on this year's Love Island, tensions have been high between Islanders Harriett Blackmore and Jess White, mainly thanks to their common interest in Ronnie Vint.

Whilst it had looked like the girls were getting along, since Ronnie coupled back up with Harriett earlier this week, things have taken another sour turn, with a number of rows between the girls.

Now, following Ciaran Davies' 'savage' comment towards Harriett, some viewers are calling for Jess to be removed from the villa, with some even accusing her of being a 'bully' towards Harriett.

After seeing Harriett storm off from the firepit in tears, Jess said: "If you give it, you've got to be able to take it. I'm sorry but it's alright when she said it to him."

Later on in the episode, Harriett chose to confront Jess, asking: "Why do you have to make everyone feel sh--?", to which Jess hit back saying: "It was a game, you're an idiot."

In another conversation with cast mate Nicole the next morning, Jess then said: "Don't give it out if you can't take it. I've tried my best to be nice to her and I can't be a---d with her. People p---- foot around her because she acts like some princess."

After witnessing the drama, a number of fans took to social media to ask bosses to remove 25-year-old Jess from the villa.

One wrote: 'Get Jess out!!!!!!!!!!!', with another adding: 'Get Jess out. She is so stuck up & jealous Ronnie prefers Harriet!'.

Another wrote: 'Listen I am not Harriet or Ronnie's biggest fan but why on earth is Jess making s--t up to upset her?? It's giving insecure bully who can't stand that a man likes another girl more #loveisland'. (sic)

A fourth added: 'Someone needs to explain to Jess that saying you're straightforward is not excuse to be nasty and a bully #LoveIsland'. (Sic)

As well as Jess' words causing a stir, new arrivals Trey Norman and Jessy Potts were each asked to pick one Islander they'd like to couple up with, after getting to know them since their arrival.

Whilst Trey picked Jess, 25-year-old Jessy caused drama by choosing Joey Essex, much to the annoyance of Grace Jackson.

Following a heated chat with Grace, Joey later took Jess up to The Terrace, where the enjoyed a kiss, despite Grace and the rest of the girls trying their best to watch on.

Despite a number of people wanting Jess out of the villa, she's immune from the latest vote thanks to new boy Trey coupling up with her.

Love Island continues every night at 9pm on ITV2/STV2.
