Love Island’s Tom Admits He Likes Ellie Bombshell
Tom Clare risked putting the cat among the pigeons during Friday night’s Love Island when he admitted he’d like to meet Ellie Spence despite people being associated with Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown.
Semi-pro footballer Tom, 23, called law firm business development executive Ellie, 23, for a chat after she stormed into the villa this week.
As they chatted privately, Tom assured Ellie that he wanted to meet her and insisted that it’s not ‘exclusive’ with Zara.
Love triangle? Tom risked placing the cat among the pigeons during Friday’s Love Island, as he admitted that he would like to meet Ellie despite people being associated with Zara (pictured)
“I’m not exclusive, you know what I mean?” she said when Ellie asked how she felt about her current partner Zara and Ellie’s fellow newcomer Spencer Wilks, 24, speaking.
When Tom said that he didn’t “bother” him, Ellie replied: “That’s a bit of a red flag.”
But Tom replied: ‘She’s not my girl, how much do you like me?’
Turning heads? Semi-pro footballer Tom, 23, called law firm business development executive Ellie, 23 (pictured), for a chat after she stormed into the villa this week.
A flirtatious Ellie then referenced Zara’s fight with Olivia, saying, “You’ve really blown me away, you’re so funny and we’re just kidding around.” I thought after the drama you would say no.
But Tom insisted that he is interested in meeting her and told Ellie to be ‘honest’ about it if Zara asked.
“Zara plays like you’re solid,” Ellie said.
Tired: It comes after Love Island viewers took to Twitter to complain they were “bored” by the drama between Olivia Hawkins and Zara (pictured)
To which Tom said: ‘I’m only here once and you’re fit. I want to get to know you 100 percent.
Zara was then seen catching Tanyel Revan, 26, furious that she didn’t want any “mixed signals” from him.
‘I don’t need mixed signals, I don’t need no doubt. I don’t think you should allow it here,” she said.
Played: The two girls have been fighting from the start as they compete for Tom’s affections (Olivia pictured)
But Tanyel told her that she had “nothing to worry about” as she reassured her friend about the situation.
Tom and Zara then caught up, and Zara broke down in tears when he told her that he should have called her to talk.
“I haven’t had a chance to talk to you though,” Tom replied, insisting that they’re in a “good place.”
“I think it’s important that we catch up, especially when the bombs hit,” Zara said, when Tom promised to do just that and they kissed and made up.
It comes after Love Island viewers took to Twitter to complain that they were “bored” by the drama between Olivia and Zara.
The two girls have been fighting since the beginning as they compete for Tom’s affections.
Here we go again: They continued to butt heads on Wednesday’s episode, when Olivia set her sights firmly on Tom in the wake of Haris Namani’s departure.
They’ve had several run-ins during their short time on the show thus far, with their most explosive fight yet breaking out over the weekend, leaving viewers convinced the pair had history.
They continued to argue on Wednesday’s episode, when Olivia fixed her gaze firmly on Tom after Haris Namani’s departure.
Zara accused her of focusing on Tom just because Haris was gone, while Olivia claimed that she was afraid to talk to Tom because Zara had “claimed” him.
But fans watching from home complained that they were sick of hearing the two argue over a guy.
It comes after it was revealed that the two girls have a history together, before appearing on the hit show ITV2.
After doing some digging, eagle-eyed fans noticed that the artists had been liking and commenting on each other’s Instagram posts for three years.
Then, proof of Zara and Olivia’s relationship surfaced with both of them seen lounging poolside in Dapz’s music video for Take You Away.
