Francesca Allen thinks Maura Higgins is "disrespectful".
The 23-year-old beauty paired up with Curtis Pritchard during Thursday night’s (11.07.19) recoupling, but she isn’t happy on this evening’s episode when it becomes clear Maura isn’t ready to give up on the 23-year-old dancer just yet.
After she gives him a massage earlier in the day, Francesca says in the Beach Hut: "I did find it a little disrespectful. I find that quite full on."
Maura – who is paired up with new arrival Chris Taylor – isn’t happy with the way things panned out, and things heat up when Curtis reveals he’s still interesting in exploring a romantic connection with her.
As he raises a glass to toast her, she jokes: "[Cheers] to what? Sneaking out on the day bed tonight, when everyone’s gone to sleep?"
Referring to Francesca, she adds: "She’s never going to make you laugh the way I do."
It’s clear Curtis is torn between both girls, and while he doesn’t "want to rush" his decision, he realises he can’t keep stringing both of them along.
Speaking with Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague on the sun check, he says: "I don’t want to rush it but I know I need to get a move on because I’ll push them both away. I wish one of them was horrible, it would make the decision so much easier."
Meanwhile, Francesca seems to think it’s a pretty easy choice because of their "similar" characters.
She explains in the Beach Hut: "I do think our personalities are really similar. I haven’t really found someone before that is as positive and silly and giggly as me."
It remains to be seen who Curtis will choose to pursue a romantic connection with.
‘Love Island’ airs tonight at 9pm on Virgin Media Two and ITV2.
