Love Island fans expressed their concern for Nicole

Love Island fans have urged producers to step in and support Nicole Samuel as she sparked concern.

The Welsh account manager, 24, had viewers worrying about her on Thursday night after they saw a change in her appearance. Fans believed Nicole looked severely sunburnt during the dramatic recoupling. Taking to social media, many viewers demanded show bosses stepped in.

One said: “Nicole looks like she has sunburn on her nose.” Another added: “Catching up with LoveIsland Is Nicole’s nose burnt to a crisp or is that a contouring catastrophe?” Someone else commented: “How could producers allow Nicole to walk out with Bridget Jones-level bronzer stripes all over her face? That’s just mean!”

A fourth wrote: “Please I’m begging the producers or the girls… someone please sort Nicole’s make-up out. I mean what the actual F.” During the recoupling this week, host Maya Jama was left in tears as tensions went high. Following Casa Amor, Nicole returned to see Ciaran sitting alone. She cried as she said how much she had missed Ciaran, leaving Maya in tears too as she told her off for making her cry.

Nicole and Ciaran decided to stick together, yet outside the villa rumours have swirled over trouble in paradise. He has been accused of covering up a tattoo with the name of his previous girlfriend. The Welsh rugby player is said to have dated Gloucester-based student Evie-May Bishop. The TikToker shared online that her ex-boyfriend even has her name allegedly inked on him.

In a video posted on TikTok, Evie-May alleged that Ciaran has a tattoo which reads “Evie-May”. The tattoo appeared to sit on his collarbone beneath his neck. However, the tattoo doesn’t appear to be visible any longer as Ciaran has worn V-neck T-shirts without the tattoo being spotted on the reality series.

While on Monday’s episode, viewers saw Ellie Jackson enter the series. Ciaran realised he knew the bombshell, but wasn’t sure whether the pair had slept together. “I think I slid into her DMs. I don’t think she’s one of the 120,” he boasted. Ellie also confessed that the pair had met in the past.

The two villas went head-to-head in the raunchy races game, with Ciaran appearing to kiss Lucy during one round. Nicole was spotted reading a text confirming that the main villa had won, and asked: “Who the f**k is Lucy?” During Friday’s episode, Nicole is set to ask Ellie how she knows Ciaran.

Ellie reveals to Nicole: “It was on and off messaging for a good few months” before confirming that the two had actually met before on a night out. As Nicole admits Ciaran never told her that, Ellie replies: “I had a feeling he’d downplay it slightly…” Determined to get answers, Nicole is set to pull Ciaran for a chat.
