Love Island All Stars viewers applauded Joshua Ritchie during Tuesday’s episode for his hilarious quips and savage take downs of his fellow Islanders, with many fans calling for him and Sophie Piper to win the show.
Josh, 29, reached the end of his tether with Georgia Harrison after she tore into him after he labelled her and Anton Danyluk, 28, the most game-playing couple in the villa.
The Islanders were tasked with trying to figure out which couple were most likely to be voted for a particular category, according to the public.
With nominations for the most argumentative couple and the hottest, things took a sour turn when Joshua said to put Georgia H, 29, and Anton as the biggest game-players in the villa.
He said: ‘Possibly could be you two? Every time somebody’s come in for G, she’s dropped you and then she’s gone back to you…’

Furious, Georgia hit back: ‘I’ve never once dropped him for anyone and I’ve always supported you. And I’ve been hearing you’ve made a few comments about me behind my back Josh and I’m not having it…
‘I’m sure I’m not the only couple you are trying to put a negative spin on either’.
Josh responded: ‘Go on then, who?’, leaving the Islanders in silence.
Elsewhere, when asked who they thought the public had voted as the hottest couple, the Islanders put Molly Smith, 29, and Tom Clare, 24, in first place, with Arabella Chi, 32, and Adam Maxted, 31, in second place.
They predicted Georgia Steel, 25, and Toby Aromolaran, 24, would have been placed third by the public.
Josh and his partner Sophie, 24, opened an envelope to reveal that they had been voted by the public as the hottest couple, prompting Josh to sarcastically scream: ‘YES!’
He shouted: ‘I knew I was f**king sick, man!’
Viewers took to social media after watching Josh’s antics, with many insisting his humour and honesty should mean he and Sophie win the series.

Elsewhere, Love Island All Stars fans predicted the end of Molly Smith and Tom Clare’s coupling during Tuesday’s episode of the show after her ex Callum Jones caught her eye.
Molly has been left questioning her connections in the Love villa after it emerged she and ex Callum raised each other’s pulses the most in the heart rate challenge.
Monday’s episode finished on an awkward note as the results also showed that Molly and her current partner Tom had raised each other’s pulses the least in the group.
Tom had his heart raised by former flame Georgia Steel, while Callum managed to raise his partner Jess Gale’s heart.
Reflecting on the shock results, Molly admitted she needed to talk things through with her ex and her current partner.

Molly told Sophie Piper: ‘I think there are reasons as to why it was Cal and I, and it was Tom and Georgia S… maybe he’s not shutting it down like he needs to be? I do think I’m gonna speak to him…’
Later in bed, Molly confronted Tom about the results, which prompted him to insist: ‘It’s just me and you.’
With an unconvinced Molly laughing in response, Tom questioned: ‘What? Babe if you can’t trust me, we’ve got no chance.’
Earlier in the episode, Tom said: ‘Your heart rate was raised by your ex which wasn’t really ideal.
‘Probably not the best thing for me to see.’
Molly told Tom: ‘No, obviously not, but I can honestly say I don’t know how because I feel like you did the most so it doesn’t really make sense.’
She added: ‘I wouldn’t deep it if I were you.’
Despite Molly’s attempts to reassure Tom, viewers of the show were not convinced, with many taking to social media to express their views.

While someone else shared: ‘I give Molly and Tom three more days. Let’s hope her and Callum keep connecting.’

‘Tom and Molly having trouble in paradise. Manifesting Callum swooping in,’ posted another show fan.

Another viewer commented; ‘Not Molly laughing after Tom said “it’s just me and you babe” omg.’
And someone else remarked: ‘Molly laughing at Tom saying “it’s me and you”. This guy has no chance.’

Another show fan exclaimed: ‘MOLLY IS SO UNBOTHERED BY TOM IN BED SHES 100% THINKING ABOUT CALLUM LMAOOO.’
While someone else wrote: ‘The way Molly was ignoring Tom like she really doesn’t care now since she knows Callum’s heart is still with her… literally!’
The heart rate game saw the Islanders dress up and perform a series of sexy dances to the group of the opposite sex who gather around the fire pit.
After the boys and girls stripped down to risqué outfits for the steamy challenge, the results revealed Callum and Molly, who split just last year, might still have a spark for one another.
Coming out triumphs in the challenge, Sophie Piper and Joshua Ritchie were the only couple to collectively raise each other’s hearts the most.
Minutes after Georgia Harrison revealed the results tension quickly rose between Molly, Callum and Tom, leaving the group too stunned for words.
Before the challenge aired, viewers even went to the extreme of begging producers to ‘rig’ the challenge so that the former couple will have their hearts raised by each other.
Callum and Molly are civil and friendly around the villa despite an awkward start in South Africa – where they both walked in as bombshells.
The duo were coupled up together for over a week and tried to rekindle a spark, but they decided to go separate ways again.

The former couple met when Molly was a Casa Amor bombshell on the 2020 season and they went on to have a three-year relationship, even moving in together in Manchester.
Callum was revealed to be the first bombshell of the series shaking things up in the villa directly after host Maya Jama coupled-up the main line-up of former show legends during the opening episode.
In an unexpected twist, Molly walked in directly after him as a second bombshell, leaving Callum completely stunned.
