Meanwhile, on July 26 fans were not impressed with how fishmonger Luca behaved during a discussion with 19-year-old Gemma. During a row about the latest challenge, which saw Gemma lick Adam Collard's chest, Luca removed his microphone and stormed out of the villa.
Before the drama, Gemma caught up with the girls and Ekin-Su said to her: "Was it me or was I seeing that Luca was being a bit weird? Like when he was... when you were dong your challenge." Indiyah agreed, and told Gemma: "He was just a little bit of a baby."
Gemma didn't seem happy about it, and responded to the girls: "It's really not that deep but if he's gonna be a pr**k over it, then he can do one." She then spoke to Luca and said: "You can sit here and say you're not in a mood... you're in a mood."
Luca quipped back: "No, I'm not in a mood," to which Gemma replied: "Luca don't play thick." As he repeated: "Gem, I'm not in a mood," she replied: "You were pushing me off, had a face like a slapped a**... are you 12?!"
