Love Island fans lay into Casey O’Gorman for ‘cop out’ kiss in challenge

Claudia Fogarty, 28, was left in tears after Casey, 26, was picked by brunette bombshell Rosie Seabrook, 24, in the latest recoupling.

Since, Casey has talked of not wanting to hurt Claudia’s feelings, while also admitting to being interested in getting to know newbie Rosie.

But in tonight’s devils and angels challenge, Mr Nice Guy Casey didn’t go in for the kiss with either beauty – and Love Island viewers weren’t impressed.

Instead, he kissed his friend Tanya Manhenga, explaining that doing so was an ‘easy option’.

Some fans commented on how this was a ‘boring’ choice, and hinted that the Islander should have played his cards more boldly.

The latest challenge came after Rosie expressed her concerns at the potential for Casey and Claudia’s blossoming relationship.

‘I feel like the only couple that I think weren’t compatible were Casey and Claudia,’ she told Samie Elishi and Sanam Harrinanan.

But that is yet to be seen, as the episode finished with Casey and Claudia catching up over a classic Love Island ‘where’s your head at’ chat.

‘I do really like Rosie. The more I’m speaking to her the more I’m starting to like her,’ said Casey, before admitting that he didn’t ‘feel ready to make that decision’ when Claudia asked who he wants to pursue a relationship with.

‘You’ve got to do what you’ve got to do,’ Claudia said, having walked out of the bedroom last night after hearing some cosy pillow talk between the new couple.

‘I’m worth more,’ Claudia told Casey as she warned she won’t stick around forever, before he concluded: ‘I don’t know where I’m at’.

Tomorrow’s excitement is the classic snog, marry pie challenge, so hopefully Love Island viewers will be entertained by that one, as it usually sends the villa into chaos.

Love Island returns tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
