The Love Island villa was plagued with drama Tuesday night after Maxwell told Casey he didn’t see Jessie cry “no tears” when she broke down after the reconciliation.
It all started after Jessie took Casey out early in the episode, telling her she didn’t deserve an apology from Will and Tom for standing up for Claudia in the challenge.
A frustrated Casey couldn’t see why Jessie was getting involved in the situation and told her that he “didn’t care” about her opinion.
And forming their opinion on the matter, the islanders quickly came to the conclusion that Jessie was ‘fake’ and ‘playing a game’.
Talking to Casey about the new consensus in the village, Maxwell recalled an incident that led him to that conclusion.
Stirring the pot: The Love Island villa was plagued with drama Tuesday night after Maxwell told Casey he didn’t see Jessie cry ‘tears’ when she broke down after the reconciliation
She said that when she returned to the villa after Casa Amor to find Will alone at the reconciliation, she did not see her cry, even though she broke down in front of the islanders.
It led him to believe that perhaps she wasn’t ‘genuine’ with her feelings, he said.
But taking to Twitter as the episode aired, fans criticized Maxwell, telling him to keep an eye out closer to home.
The islander is currently paired with Olivia, who was dubbed by fans as the “biggest player” in the village.
One fan said: “She was about to agree with Maxwell, but then she remembered who she was paired with.” She has no right to speak of the intentions of others when he is in a relationship with Olivia’
“Mad Maxwell is spitting facts but it shouldn’t be coming from him lol,” said another.
A third viewer added: “Maxwell calling Jessie a game player while paired with Olivia is sending me off.”
Meanwhile, others agreed with his observation.
Hypocrite: On Twitter as the episode aired, fans criticized Maxwell, telling him to keep an eye out closer to home.
“Maxwell wasn’t lying though…during Jessie’s mourning for 40 days and nights there was not a single tear,” one fan said.
Another fan added: ‘Maxwell says what everyone thinks about Jessie’s ‘tears’.
It comes after Love Island’s Will was left “furious” during Tuesday night’s episode after his co-stars turned on his girlfriend Jessie behind his back.
At the end of the episode, the farmer and some of his fellow islanders were sitting catching up on the day beds when they started to run over the Aussie.
Will was furious when Olivia admitted that she said that Jessie is playing a game and that she is “very aware of the situations she finds herself in”.
Will yelled, ‘They all move like snakes! How is it a minor thing to say someone is fake?
Olivia replied, “I’m just being honest with what we said, I think she’s very aware of the situation she’s in and I don’t want you to get hurt.”
Seeing red, the farmer added: ‘I am furious. I am absolutely furious about this. I’m furious.
It comes after Jessie called Casey for a chat and told her that she didn’t deserve an apology from Will and Tom for standing up for Claudia in the challenge.
A frustrated Casey couldn’t see why Jessie was getting involved in the situation and told her that he “didn’t care” about her opinion.
And talking about the drama later in the bedroom when the lights went out, Jessie went on to tell her part to Will.
She said: ‘I don’t think anyone speaks their mind here. Even the way I expressed my feelings towards Casey…’
Upon being caught, Casey overheard and responded, ‘Get yourself a life, Jessie!’
Defending his partner, Will said, ‘It wasn’t about you, Casey! Don’t be a child.
Taking to Twitter as the episode aired, fans were shocked by Will’s rebuttal, saying, “I didn’t know he had it in him!”
One fan said: ‘He will do everything he can to defend Jessie’
‘If you’ve ever been in a situation where your babies don’t like your boy, you know how jarring it is for Will. Long day man,’ he said for a second.
Another fan added: “I like the assertive side of Will…I didn’t think he had it in him.”
Meanwhile, others criticized his behavior.
You are in a dark room and people are whispering and calling your name. How the hell is that not personal? Will needs to relax,’ said one fan.
Another viewer said: “Will and Jessie are surprised that Casey is mad when her bed is right next to them.”
Meanwhile, a shocking mass spill from Love Island is on the way, with host Maya Jama landing in South Africa early Tuesday.
