Georgia Steel and Sam Bird are set to face a tough decision during recouping on ‘Love Island’ tonight (19.07.18).
The former couple made the decision to split at the Beach Club, and on Thursday’s episode, the news of another recoupling is set to see both parties face a tricky decision when it comes to who they want to pair up with for the next leg of the ITV2 reality show.
Georgia has been getting close to new boy Josh whilst Sam has been reluctantly persistent in getting to know Stephanie, but when recoupling time comes, they both find it hard to imagine each other with someone else.
During tonight’s episode, a text arrives confirming the recoupling, which reads: "Islanders, tonight there will be a recoupling. Georgia and Sam will pick first. The remaining boys will then choose who they want to couple up with #freshstart #bagabae (sic)"
To which Georgia reveals she can’t imagine her former beau sharing a bed with anyone else.
She says: "Basically I can’t go in a bed with Josh. I’d be lying in bed thinking ‘I hope Sam’s lying in bed thinking of me.’ I wouldn’t know if you are. I really, really like you."
"It’s really hard knowing that Sam will be sharing a bed with another girl. I really didn’t think it would be like this. It’s the hardest test I’ve ever gone through, ever in my life."
And Sam is having just as hard a time with his decision, as he later adds: "I don’t think Georgia’s fully understood what is about to happen. This is the recoupling. It’s all well and good splitting up and being single and talking to other people but if the people we’ve been talking to is nothing like what we had, then what are we doing?"
Elsewhere in tonight’s show, Stephanie is left in tears after she discovers that Jack and newcomer Laura Crane have locked lips, after Stephanie revealed she is "looking for more" with the hunk.
But Stephanie insists she isn’t annoyed about the kiss, and was instead emotional that she seemed to be the last person to know.
Speaking in the Beach Hut, she said: "I don’t feel annoyed about the kiss whatsoever because we’ve been in here a few days, Laura’s in the exact same position as I am. The one thing I was p****d off about is that everyone knew except me. I’m a very approachable person. I feel like I’m going to cry, I don’t know why. I actually don’t know why I’m crying, I just feel mugged off. Everyone knew except me. I’m just so embarrassed."
‘Love Island’ airs every night at 9pm on ITV2.
