Dr Alex has got everyone riled up and "it's the most united we have been since before Brexit," say Love Island fans
The entire nation has united behind Love Island's Alexandra Cane as she laid in to Dr Alex George, telling him "shame on you."

"I think you're pathetic, you've wasted my time and you've wasted your own. Shame on you."

But others reckon he's a massive hypocrite. One minute he was mad at Ellie for not "trying hard enough" with him, but now he's barely made an effort with Alexandra – and accused her of coming on too strong. What's the deal?! Was he just playing the game and using Alexandra to get to the final?
