The nation are bound to shed a few tears tonight as Amy reveals her broken heart over Curtis' Love Island betrayal.
The stewardess is left feeling "like utter sh*te" following the discovery that Curtis wanted to choose Jourdan in the recoupling but was turned down.
She was planning on telling Curtis that she loves him after their reunion, but instead she found out she was his "back-up plan". We feel her pain.
FIRST LOOK
Amy's heart breaks as Curtis tells her the truth about Jourdan, and the villa erupts as Michael and Amber come face-to-face.
Tonight, 9pm on @itv2. #LoveIslandpic.twitter.com/JndfZ3KkGM
Amy is seen bawling her eyes out in The Beach Hut, sobbing as she tells the camera: "I thought I'd met my first love and The One. But it turns out I haven't. I'm someone's back-up plan yet again."
While she was in Casa Amor remaining loyal, Curtis was busy stabbing her in the back, choosing to kiss Jourdan in two challenges and telling her his head was turned, despite her lack of interest.
In an explosive showdown tonight, the professional dancer tells Amy:
"I'm going to be completely truthful to you about everything.I pulled one of the girls for a chat and told her if recoupling was in half an hour I'd couple up with her."
"She said no, basically. I didn't want to touch you because I f***ed up, like really bad."
Amy replied: "So, she said no and you said 'alright, I'll go back Amy. I fell in love with you and I get back to this. I never thought you would do this to me.
"You're the perfect man after all. Do you know how worthless this has made me feel? To know you didn't like me enough or respect me enough to be able to resist."
Curtis has taken Amy, gassed her up and whispered sweet nothings in her ear for two weeks, to say there isn’t a physical attraction as soon as she leaves.
Michael has spent weeks breaking down Amber’s wall, just to achieve it and shit on the pile
Men are shit #LoveIsland
At least Curtis has the good grace in the Beach Hut to look slightly ashamed of himself, saying; "I messed up. I hurt her and have treated her very bad. I've been disrespectful."
YES. YOU HAVE. He's acted fake, there's no going around it, and Michael is now the most universally hated man in the UK after his brutal behind-the-back bitching and dumping of Amber.
We can't cope with these boys, honestly. Tommy and Ellie Belly the teddy for the win. Tune in tonight to watch Amy's heart get blasted into pieces. We all want to hug her, don't we?
Dani Dyer has revealed one of the Love Island villa's more…interesting…safety rules and we're pretty surprised by it.
Despite the gig looking like one of the easiest in the world, with everyone lazing about in the sun all day, the daughter of Danny Dyer has revealed that their time in the sun was monitored.
The 23-year-old said that the health of contestants was hugely important to the team, with the producers placing strict regulations on the amount of time they spent in the sun and their water consumption.
The actress explained to Hello Magazine that; "It is so hot and you have first aid that come in like twice a day" adding that "they are always on your case, there is sun tan lotion everywhere, they are always on at you about drinking water."
The former Love Island winner, who coupled up with Jack Fincham last year, disclosed that:
"They really do look after you in there, you are like little babies. You come out and you want someone to say to you 'Dani, do you want some water?'."
The 2018 winner opened up about facing reality when she emerged from the villa;
"When I first came out, that was really surreal to me, like the first moment I came out the villa, because obviously I had no contact with the outside world, I had no idea what was going on and to come out and get everyone sort of knowing you and thrust into it all, that was probably the most difficult moment."
Other rules involve no masturbating, eating lunch and dinner at specific times, no reading books or magazines, no showering at night, only two alcoholic drinks (no spirits though) on a 'big night', no unprotected sex, chats must be scheduled and interesting, no nudity allowed, no discriminating, no drunken sex and no waxes.
Tom Walker has dropped a few Love Island bombs after appearing on today's This Morning with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield.
The Ex-Islander has revealed that Michael Griffiths was having huge doubts about his relationship with Amber just days before Casa Amor even began.
Tom revealed that the firefighter had been pulling him aside for secret chats over Amber Gill long before he left the Love Island villa, and we're shook by the sheer RAT vibes of it all.
Michael has become an enemy of the state faster than Tommy can punch, and has shocked viewers by confessing his ambivalence towards Amber.
Audiences were left enraged after he called his couple partner 'childish' to the new girl Joanna, before kissing her and saying that his head has been firmly turned.
Meanwhile, Amber has remained loyal and stoic in Casa Amor, which makes it all the more heartbreaking. She did say Michael looked like the type of guy who could ruin your life, and she wasn't wrong.
Tom spoke about his secret chats with Michael on the ITV show; "Me and Michael had had a chat actually, and he did feel like Amber put him down a little bit," Tom told Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield.
"He was biting his tongue with her just to save the arguing and he started to realise this. He kind of said,'maybe she's not my perfect woman'."
Curtis also dropped the bombshell that his head's been turning for new girl Jourdan, but Tom thinks he'll end up sticking with Amy Hart in the end.
He also thinks Jordan will want to stay with Anna, but she's pretty busy with Ovie…Awkward.
"Not Curtis, I didn't see Curtis swaying. Jordan, it was still early days for him and Anna," he said. Tom also got honest about his "few silly mistakes" in the villa in terms of Irish ring girl Maura Higgins.
"It was lad bander gone wrong, I didn't think she'd go that mad," Tom told the hosts.
"I knew she'd heard, that's when I had to repeat it. There was no going back, there was no lying, I had to say I'd said it. But I thought she might have taken it on the chin as a bit of tongue-in-cheek banter, but she went off."
"Do you think she overreacted for effect?" asked Phil. "Possibly," started Tom, before Holly jumped in to defend Maura.
"No, I don't think so, she was well within her rights – because you did do it in front of all the boys," she pointed out, mentioning Tom's "interesting to see whether she's all mouth or not" comment.
"If I'd have said it to her she might have reacted differently, it was saying it to the boys that got her riled up," confessed Tom.
"Still, you've got to be careful what you say regardless. Anyway. You say maybe she wasn't the perfect person for you, which is why you kept hitting these bumps in the road," added Holly.

"Definitely, I don't think I was Maura's perfect guy either – we were the best options for each other at the time," Tom added.
"I got friend-zoned by Lucie straight away, she was really upset about Joe leaving. It wouldn't have felt right to try there," he mentioned. We had no idea he was into Lucie, so that's news.
What do you think about the Michael bombshell, was he tip-toeing around Amber too much to feel happy with her?
The boys met a host of new girls at the original villa, and newcomer Jourdan locked lips with Curtis in a teaser clip from the infamous Virgin Media reality show.
It's believed that the intimate moment is part of a challenge, which will air tonight or tomorrow. The 23-year-old's doubts about Amy have led audiences to call for him to dump her.
His head is most definitely turned after locking eyes on the newbies, and fans were deeply upset for Amy online
One tweeted: "Curtis kisses Jourdan in the next episode. Nahhh Amy will disintegrate."
A second added: "For us, Michael and Amber may be the biggest plot twist but the villa will SHAKE if Curtis comes back with a new girl."
A separate viewer claims that Curtis is losing interest because himself and Amy were in the bottom three couples:
"Curtis' head's being turned bc he realised the public don't like him and Amy and he needs to act quick to save himself."
Another Twitter user shared her sympathies for Amy: "Did we just see Curtis kiss Jordana or what ever her name is! AMY DESERVES BETTER AT THIS POINT!”

Many fans are fearing how Amy will react to the news, seeing as she definitely doesn't have her eyes on any of the boys in Casa Amor.
Some are urging the dancer to go for Jourdan, but Tommy appears to be the only boy who is unswayed at the moment. Himself and Molly-Mae are currently looking like the purest couple.
What do you think Curtis will do, leave Amy for Jourdan or stay loyal? We can't cope with the island drama, Casa Amor has us in BITS.
Irish model, foodie blogger and fitness expert Roz Purcell has posted a message that, we think, everyone needs to read today.
Purcell has been a long-standing agent of body positivity, having suffered with the pressure to have the perfect body presumably for her entire modelling career.
With Love Island on our screens for the next eight weeks judging physiques and placing emphasis on the Greek God image of bronzed and toned bodies, it's important to remember that they are only displaying a miniscule picture of reality.
The vast majority of the country does not fit into their notion of an 'ideal' body type, and their lack of body diversity and racial diversity is fairly shocking.
Roz expressed her own views in an Instagram post, and we love her for it:
"Few things. Love Island is hitting our screens tonight; let's remember its a selective representation of the female body and I would say the pressure they must feel to live up to the ”perfect body” before entering the reality TV SHOW world is horrible.
"The fact they HAVE to wear bikinis all day until they are allowed put clothes on for the evening. The stress," she added.
She continued, opening up about her moment of clarity on the beach;
"Went to go for a swim today and obviously with the weather it was jammers I think about the fear I used to have (sometimes still get) about stripping off into a swimsuit/ bikini, walking past people feeling just shit and insecure about my stretch marks, cellulite jiggly bits. Walking backwards into the sea."
"It was the fear of what people thought more so than what I thought about them." Fear holds a huge amount of us back from enjoying our holidays, and it's not fair.
"What to remember when I feel like this…. No one cares or notices and if they do, if they care about my bits (that are not part of this perfect image portrayed by society) then they're dicks.
"You deserve to run about in a swimsuit, jump in the sea, dip in the pool, not be bleeding boiling on holidays. Don't let anyone tell you different (even your own head )." Roz concluded.
She's dead right. While we can all enjoy reality television if we want, we have to recognise that it's about as far away from reality as possible.
Body confidence takes time and energy, but figure out what empowers you. If Love Island makes you feel self-conscious or down, it's time to switch off.
Ex-Love Island star Joe Garratt has sent the internet into a frenzy after teasing a return to the Spanish villa via his Instagram stories.
The star was coupled up with Lucie Donlan but was voted off the show last week alongside Elma Pazar, which cut their romance short and left Lucie single.
The sandwich seller headed back to the UK, but is on his way BACK to Majorca after sharing a mysterious Instagram photo.
The photo shows an airport screen with the word 'Palma' alongside a palm tree and love heart emoji. It's definitely a hint if we've ever seen one. The second image showed him touching down in Palma de Mallorca.
His news comes just as Casa Amor is kicking off, with 12 new singletons set to join the show in a rival villa.
Joe previously revealed that he would wait for surfer chick Lucie on the outside, but she's partnered up with fellow single contestant Anton at the moment.
After he was voted off by the public, he told The Sun; “I would love to get more time with Lucy in there. It is such an amazing experience and when you’re doing it with someone you care about its just perfect.
“I would never rule out the possibility of going back in. I met somebody who I fell for so I have already won that in that sense. I would love to go back in and see her."
He added: “I think that would be really nice and I think she would love that.”
Would Lucie be happy to see her former couple partner, who was besotted with her? Or is she moving on?
She caused a stir in the villa this week after saying "Never say never" to a future romance with Tommy. Molly-Mae has since asked for boundaries to be set on their friendship, which Lucie definitely isn't pleased about.
Lucie has often mentioned that she's hoping the surfer dude of her dreams will walk through the door, which doesn't sound positive for city boy Joe. Tune in tonight at 9pm on Virgin Media for updates.
Producers are clearly gagging to shake things up in the latest Love Island series, having already decided to send the girls into Casa Amor rather than the boys this year.
The rival villa will house a brand new group of boys and girls who are all looking to find love as much as the originals
Most of them won't survive past the limited time which the neighbouring villa is open for, but a lucky few may be chosen as a couple partner. They'll have to turn heads and tread on toes, however…
It's Casa Amor time! Head to the app to find out more about the six guys and six girls who will be turning heads… #LoveIslandpic.twitter.com/55zhdBjnST
For those who don't get chosen after the few days, well…it is what it is.
We've decided to do a full scope on the newbies, for personal research reasons. There are definitely a few big personalities in the bunch, who do you think will be chosen?
The 21-year-old student from the Isle of Man describes himself as "a cheerful, happy, charming, funny bloke".
Rating himself as an 8 out of 10, he thinks his best feature is his blue eyes. Who is he interested in "cracking on" with? "Lucie would be my number one".
He's still open to dating some of the other ladies, however; "Arabella is beautiful, I couldn’t believe my eyes when she walked through the villa. Maura is also stunning."
Arabella was voted out last night, so that's out the window, but maybe Maura will go for him. Lucie's still single, will she take a shine to him over Joe Garratt?
The personal trainer and ex-Royal Navy officer is from Bournemouth, and spells trouble for the Island with his divisive nature.
Harry Redknapp's personal trainer describes himself as "strongly opinionated and very competitive".
He added: "I speak my mind, but that can upset people sometimes. I am very quick to judge, and sometimes do that too quickly. I’m not very empathetic either."
Marvin, who rates himself an 8.7 out of 10, said:
"Anna has definitely caught my eye but then recently Lucie has as I feel like she’s very similar to me in the sense that if she doesn’t want to hang around with a group she won’t force herself to do, which I’ve admired."
In terms of making friends with the boys, he's ruled out two already; "Danny might be a bit boring and Curtis irritates me," he said.
The professional footballer from Watford describes himself as "very positive" and with "decent banter", but gets "annoyed with people that have bad hygiene".
Dennon is loving fiery villa resident Maura, and has his eye firmly set on her; "I do like how Maura is turning out to be. She’s really feisty and could be a handful."
On his relationship with fidelity he said: "I’ve cheated in the past but I was seeing someone exclusively, not technically in a relationship." Hmmm…
The builder from Essex has a self-described "positive energy and mindset" and says: "I’m outgoing and I’m a good laugh. "
In terms of his looks, George said: "People compliment me on my jawline." Who has he got his eye on?
"Amber and Anna – Amber is my type, they are the sort of girls I’d go for looks-wise and Anna is really pretty and she’s got a nice body."
Asked whether he'd be down for breaking up a couple, George said: "If I see the girl I want and we have that connection, I’m going to go for it, I don’t have any loyalty to anyone in there at the moment."
The bathroom salesman from Nuneaton sees himself as "a cheeky lad" with "the gift of the gab". He rates himself a 10 for looks, which is pretty flattering…
"I would say 10 but… I should be modest so I’ll say 9."
On which girl he's interested in, Dan said: "I do fancy Amber but I know she seems loved up with Michael. I’ll test the water with it though. Then I’ll probably go for Lucie and Maura."
He came out with that timeless line: "I’m not bothered about treading on any toes."
The Londoner is a pro basketball player and self-labelled "wildcard" in the competition; "I’m a competitor, it comes with my job, it’s built into my DNA."
On his skills as a practical type of lad, Ovie added: "I left home at 16 to chase my dreams as a basketball player and since then have lived in six different countries and come across different people and cultures."
He attended school with Alexandra Cane and mentioned his crush on Meghan Markle, but Ovie has his eye on Anna "from the beginning". Jordan's got competition.
The business developer from Crodon wants to sell some romance and describes herself as "a five times two out of ten." Apparently she's a mathematician too?
On her goal of finding love, Lavena admitted: "I’ve been on my own for four years so whoever I meet in there I will fall for."
Lavena has her eye on some of the guys, having had a big crush on Jack Fowler from last year's line-up:
"If I had my pick, I’d probably go for Michael but I feel like he's really coupled up. But Anton seems very funny so we would bounce off each other."
The hostess from London has a desire to be "an Arabian Princess in the villa". She wants to find the Aladdin to her Jasmine.
She claims that she'll "get on well with the boys", but is targeting one guy in particular:
"I have got my eye on Anton. I think he is cheeky and I think he’s misunderstood by the girls in the villa."
In terms of her own appearance, Nabila said: "I like my eyes and I like the fact that I have hips, my hips are really shapely so I like my hourglass figure.
The recruitment consultant from London as a major downfall heading in: "I’m far too honest and sometimes I should keep my mouth shut." Amber's twin, maybe?
Luckily for the gals, she's reveres loyalty:
"Girl code is simply being honest to a girl’s face. If a girl is coupled up with someone and you want to get to know that person, then girl code for me is explaining exactly how you’re feeling to the other girl – it’s honesty and face to face."
She is hoping it's Anton or a man who will "give their all in a relationship".
The Bromley make-up artist describes her greatest flaws; "I can be insecure at times I suppose and I am messy."
She's definitely confident about her looks, saying: "I would give myself a solid 8 or 9. I get a lot of compliments on my eyes and my boobs."
Belle said she has her eyes on Anton and Tom. Well, Tom's a goner so it's basically just Anton.
She's been mates with last year's winner Dani Dyer since childhood as her own father is The Football Factory actor Tamer Hassan, giving Belle a " link to the famous world". Sort of.
The Cheltenham VIP host describes herself honestly as "clingy", saying: "I am emotional and I am loving."
She claims her best feature is her lips, Maria said: "I can be quite stubborn, I am an only child so I often expect to get my own way and I’m quite bossy."
She is scoping out Anton as a potential couple partner, but admits concerns: "Deep down, it is Anton but I just can’t stop thinking about when he went in and talked about having a wandering eye."
Tune in tonight at 9pm on Virgin Media to get the first glimpse at the Love Island Casa Amor contestants.
It's becoming increasingly obvious which couple are the most infatuated with one another on ITV's Love Island, but it was sealed with a kiss last night.
Curtis Pritchard and Tommy Fury's 'bromance' has been heating up for weeks, and the love is positively sizzling between them. The chemistry, the adoration, the connection; it's all there.
Forget Amy and Molly, they're history. Fans exploded on social media last night after witnessing their balcony bonding, and we have to agree…it's pretty darn cute.
Hilariously, Molly assumed that Tommy and Curtis would be discussing herself and the boxer "doing bits" in bed, but the conversation was entirely a sharing of love between the two boys.
They've sworn to be best mates for life, and we can see them getting matching "It is what it is" tattoos any day now.
Viewers of the show are HERE for the smashing of toxic masculinity between the pair, and want the £50,000 cash prize to be handed over to #Turtis.
Love how Molly-Mae thinks Tommy & Curtis are on the terrace talking about what bits & bobs they’ve done in their couples & they’re up there expressing their undying love for each other #LoveIsland
Whatever you watch Love Island for, the memes are absolutely out of this world. Of course, the absurd drama, the narration and attractive people you want to stare at also make it worth watching.
Twitter lost it's sanity last night after Molly-Mae took a peek under the duvet at Tommy Fury's manhood and said; "It's f**cking huge." Yes, you read those words correctly.
The influencer made a NSFW confession about her couple partner last night, and Tommy was clearly chuffed with himself.
The show ended on a racy cliffhanger after Molly-Mae boasted about the junk in his trunk, and her face said a thousand words.
The pair were snuggled up in bed as the lights went down, and the social media model took it upon herself to get a little bit handsy. Her facial expression was absolutely gas though.
Fans of the show quickly turned to Twitter for comedic relief, many exclaiming that their "innocent Catholic ears" can't handle the heat.
A study has figured out which of the Love Islander contestants have fake Instagram followers, and the answer is ALL of them. But who has the most?
Amber Gill apparently has 535,000 followers on Instagram, which will surely increase when she leaves the Spanish villa, but she may want to ditch some of the fake ones.
Data analysis carried out by Instagram influencer marketing service Takumi allege that the Geordie had the highest percentage of fake followers when she entered the villa.
Herself and new boy Jordan Hames both had 65 percent fake followers, which is pretty damn dodgy if you ask us.
The recently axed Islander Joe Garratt (412,000 followers) and Yewande Biala (365,000) both had 64 percent fake followers, and Michael Griffiths (478,000) had 63 percent.
Maura Higgins had the lowest number, but almost half of her 322,000 followers aren't real. Takumi’s CEO Adam Williams made a statement on the results:
"The results of our research show the extent to which fraudulent activity can take place on Instagram. Yet influencers are still powerful marketing tools due to their ability to resonate deeply with their core audiences."
"Brands must carefully consider who they work with and how they assess their worth. The scale of someone’s social media following doesn’t necessarily equate to real influence among consumers."
In order of who had the most followers, the list was;
Amber Rose Gill, Jordan Hames, Joe Garratt, Yewande Biala, Michael Griffiths, Callum McLeon, Tommy Fury, Danny Williams, Amy Hart, Lucie Donlan, Anna Vakili, Molly-Mae Hague, Anton Danyluk, Curtis Pritchard, Tom Walker and Maura Higgins.
Love Island's Joe Garratt has released a statement regarding his treatment of Lucie Donlan in the villa, and it's fairly stubborn.
The sandwich maker has refused to apologise for his behaviour on the show, and insisted that he never tried to 'control' his fellow contestant.
Over 300 complaints were made to television watchdog Ofcom regarding how Lucie was treated by the hit ITV2 programme.

Joe was axed this week along with Elma Pazar, and left Lucie in tears after telling her to avoid male friendships on the show, mainly with Tommy Fury.
The 22-year-old has since denied any wrongdoing, telling The Sun; “I didn’t manipulate or abuse her and I’m gutted it’s been perceived that way.
“I’d do everything and anything to help her as she had a hard time in there and didn’t get on with the girls. I thought I did right.”
He also had no idea that "snakey" Amy Hart was slagging Lucie off behind her back.
The 21-year-old surfer chick broke down several times on Love Island, leading to criticism of ITV for a perceived failure to offer her guidance and support.
The broadcaster insisted that it provided psychological support to any upset contestants.
Joe was targeted for telling Lucie to avoid other boys on te show, which led to Women's Aid to release a statement about his 'abusive behaviour'.
Controlling behaviour is never acceptable, and we're pleased to see more and more people spotting the early warning signs on #LoveIslandhttps://t.co/Bh3Gi2nRqs
Concerns over Lucie's well-being come amid heightened worries over the welfare of reality TV stars.
Two high-profile suicides of ex-Love Island contestants, 32-year-old Sophie Gradon and 26-year-old Mike Thalassitis , have led to widespread criticism of the show.
Bosses of ITV have also been slated for failing to show accurate portrayals of sexual orientations, gender-identities, body diversity or racial representation on the show.
MPs on the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) Committee have launched an inquiry into the problems surrounding reality TV.
Love Island's Joe Garratt has been hidden in a 'safehouse' since he was voted off the show after severe viewer backlash to his relationship with Lucie Donlan.
According to The Sun, the 22-year-old has been transferred to another location with two security guards and has been briefed about the online fury over his apparent 'possessive' behaviour towards Lucie.
"Joe has been in the safehouse since leaving the villa," an insider from the hit ITV reality show told the publication. Joe's friends and family have slammed the "unfair editing" of the show.
“There has been a backlash against him and as part of ITV’s new duty of care, they’re doing everything they can to help him deal with it when he comes out.”
Lucie was devastated after her coupling partner was voted off the island, along with Elma Pazar. The surfer spoke to cameras after his eviction, saying;
"I'm gutted. You could clearly see that me and Joe had feelings for each other. I don't know what I'll do without Joe. He's literally been my rock in here."
Joe promised to wait for the 21-year-old model/surfer outside of the Spanish villa. Joe's mum is said to be 'devastated' by the claims that her son is emotionally controlling Lucie.
The sandwich maker fell hard for the Cornish gal in the villa but was booted out, thanks to fellow islanders saying himself and Lucie weren't compatible.
Speaking to the Mail Online, Joe's mum said: "I know my son and he’s not like how he’s being portrayed."
Women's Aid charity expressed their concern over Joe's actions, and viewers branded his behaviour "abusive", after he told her that her male friendships were 'weird' and that he wanted her to bond with the girls instead.
His mum, Rachel, has denied the claims; "Both myself and his sister are his best friends. He doesn’t emotionally control anyone. What has been said in the newspapers today is just sheer rubbish, that is not my boy."
She continued: "I see him every day of the week and there’s no way he would make a girl cry. He’s a normal, loving 22-year-old lad."
She described his everyday life as a reason for his behaviour being different to what he was portrayed as on the show, which is a bit irrelevant? You can go to the gym and be emotionally controlling but alright…
"He’s got hundreds of friends, he goes to the gym every day. They all love him. He goes and plays rugby at the local club, they all love him.
"No friend he’s got, boy or girl, nor any of his ex-girlfriends have got a bad word to say about him," she added. "It’s a real shame this has happened."
The ITV2 show has received over 800 Ofcom complaints over Joe's relationship attitude toward Lucie. Women's Aid described Joe as having "possessive behaviour."
Controlling behaviour is never acceptable, and we're pleased to see more and more people spotting the early warning signs on #LoveIslandhttps://t.co/Bh3Gi2nRqs
Donlan’s mum has also come out in support of her daughter's relationship with Joe. Speaking to the MailOnline, Celine said that her daughter is “very happy” on the show
Celine also praised ITV for the support they've been giving to both Lucie and the family.
"Lucie should stay on the show," she said.
"We've got no worries over her what so ever, she's very happy. The support given to her and us as a family by ITV has been amazing."
The sandwich seller is now holed up in a Majorcan hotel where he will remain in hiding before flying home to the UK. This is standard Love Island procedure for the reality stars.
ITV bosses brought in new standards of aftercare this year, so it's looking likely that they are protecting Joe from the online anger against him.
He was bombarded with furious messages online over his romance with Lucie, and was accused of being "abusive" for asking her to spend less time with her friend, Tommy Fury.

Lucie is now distraught, and appears to be on the verge of voluntarily leaving the show. Lucie isn't sure how she'll cope without her partner, and is shown in tears in a clip from tonight's episode.
Many fans were also left raging over Amy's treatment of Lucie, after spotting her pulling a face when Lucie was saved.
