Love Island fans slam 'disrespectful' Georgia as they urge her to apologise
Love Island fans branded Georgia Steel "disrespectful" after a comment she made on the show tonight.
The ITV2 show returned for another instalment tonight when the Islanders took part in a Couple Of Sorts game. They received a text which read: "Islanders, tonight you will find out how the public rate you as All Star couples in a game of Couple Of Sorts #SortItOut."
Adam and Arabella hosted the evening, revealing the categories and results, with categories including 'who is the hottest couple', 'who is the most argumentative couple' and 'which couple are only staying together to win?'
Things turned tense when they were asked who the most game playing couple is, Josh said to Georgia and Anton: "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," whilst Georgia fumed 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," causing a stir amongst the Islanders.

Taking to Twitter, one fan fumed: "Only 1 twin left in the Villa and you still get the name wrong!! Disrespectful!!! #LoveIsland," whilst a second added: "This is Georgia's third time messing up someone's name, and I doubt it's by mistake. #LoveIsland." A third added: "Only one twin left in the villa, and y’all still called her the wrong name #LoveIslandAllStars," with a fourth shared: "Jess is better than me i wouldve called Georgia S George if she called me by the wrong name #loveisland #LoveIslandAllStars."

Other fans, though, reached out to defend her, with one writing: "I’m not the biggest Georgia fan but I genuinely think the name thing is because she’s dyslexic," with another adding: "Ok now everyone drag Josh for getting Jess’ name wrong like you did Georgia."
Recently, Georgia's family took to social media to slam the trolling and threats she has received.
They wrote: "Love Island is an amazing TV show and we have loved watching this series as much as everybody else. The last few episodes have been difficult for us to watch, but what's far worse is the hate Georgia is receiving online.
"It is a TV show and everyone has their opinions, please remember it's not real life! Sending vile threats and nasty messages and comments is totally unacceptable. Trolling is not OK. Georgia is a daughter, granddaughter, sister and friend and these hurtful comments will not only devastate her when she leaves the villa, but have deeply hurt those around her."
