ITV Love Island viewers share worry as Gemma Owen 'pulls Ekin-Su' in unseen Casa Amor scenes

It's been a busy week of heads turning, tears, and arguments in the Love Island villa as Casa Amor once again proved to be the ultimate test for the latest batch of islanders. Original couple Andrew Le Page and Tasha Ghouri as well as Paige Thorne and Jacques O'Neill faced the biggest fallout from the villa split.

Meanwhile, Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope also made a switch leading to a disgruntled Dami calling her former love interest a 'heartbreaker' to which she replied: "May the best heartbreaker win!"

Friday night's episode ended with tears for Tasha as she discovered what Andrew had really been up to with Coco Lodge and Paige was no closer to forgiving Jacques for kissing Cheyanne Kerr as he explored whether his feelings for the Welsh paramedic really were genuine.

With so much going on, viewers were probably welcome of a brief break on Saturday night as Unseen Bits returned to our screens, giving them the chance to see the funnier and more lighthearted moments from the ITV2 dating show.

But they were soon left worried when Gemma Owen 'pulled an Ekin-Su' in previously unaired scenes from the second villa. Those tuning into the show were initially confused when the show's narrator Iain Stirling imported them to guess 'what happened next' with a clip of the 19-year-old crawling along the floor outside.

Dressed in white, the daughter of Michael Owen was spotted by two of the new boys as she sneakily made her way past the outdoor seating area. It was soon revealed that the islanders were surprised by an unexpected visitor in the villa - in the shape of a white cat.

Gemma was trying to get closer to the feline by attempting to crawl across the decking while Indiya, who was up on the terrace with her fellow contestants, insisted: "Gemma go and get it, bring it in...we need a support animal." The dressage rider then replied: "Someone chuck me down some ham in my hand."

As Indiyah did the honours, Gemma then threw the meaty snack towards the cat, with the four-legged stray tempted out of its hiding place to quickly retrieve it. But it didn't stick around as it quickly made a getaway. Gemma fumed: "Is it taking the p***, it's taken the ham and p***ed off."

She then jokingly complained: "I've literally been on my hands and knees for this." But Love Island viewers were soon sharing their concerns. @cherry_electrix tweeted: "The cat looked so skinny I want to cry someone save it #loveisland." @Amberkavanagh1 commented: "That cat looked homeless and unhealthy, I hope someone has made sure it’s ok? #LoveIsland."

@HermO39923906 shared: "Omg that poor cat on #loveisland needs a vet. Least they can do with all their money they make from the show. That’s the content I’m wanting."

But others did find Gemma's antics amusing as it reminded them of Ekin-Su earlier in the series when she was sneakily kissed Jay Younger. @Kaaaaatie_x said: "Gemma doing an ekin su and crawling along the floor to find the cat has ended me #loveisland." @User__2503 tweeted: "Not Gemma pulling an Ekin Su and crawling around Casa Amor#LoveIsland."
