ITV Love Island's Dejon slammed as 'jealous' by fans as he reacts to villa exit
Sunday night's Love Island episode saw the villa reflect on Harrison's bombshell exit. Many of his co-stars expressed how "proud" and "delighted" they were for him deciding to leave the ITV show, following Lauren's shock dumping.
However eagle-eyed viewers spotted that one person in the villa appeared to be glad to see the back of Harrison, as it put them further forward in the competition. Fans took to social media airing that they think Dejon was pleased to see him go.
One viewer wrote on Twitter: "Dejon is just happy he eliminated competition . He is jealous of Harrison", whilst another commented: "Dejon you're only happy for him because you think you're on the way to win"
A third ITV viewer noted: "Of course Dejon is buzzing, one less person to beat", whilst a fourth wrote: "Dejon is just happy the competition is now smaller! ! ! !"
It comes following a rollercoaster week in the villa, which saw Lauren brutally sent packing after new bombshell Angel chose to couple up with Ty, leaving her single and dumped.
Harrison was left at odds, after being in a couple with Toni, but confessing he missed Lauren. He left everyone in both the villa and viewers watching on stunned as he continued to be stuck in a love triangle with the pair seemingly unable to work out his feelings.
However, he eventually left after Lauren admitting he felt she was "girlfriend material" and the pair could work on the outside. There wasn't a dry among them when he left as he became emotional, with Toni also breaking down at how she was treated during her time with him.
Since leaving the villa, Harrison and Lauren have discussed their plans. Harrison shared: "We'll make the distance work! It will be no issue. We left on good terms, but the two days prior to leaving, we weren't talking properly, so it would be good to have a conversation, get everything out in the open and hopefully move forward from there.
"I feel very strongly about the girl, I wouldn't have left if I didn't. I have no doubt in my mind that she'll be my girlfriend one day. I'm buzzing to see her and reunite! She's such a great girl."
Elsewhere, he also expressed his hopes to maintain a friendship with Toni outside of the show, acknowledging that he might not receive the same sentiment due to past mistakes.
Reflecting on his behaviour, Harrison admitted: "You could tell by me getting emotional, I was upset about how I've acted and upset about Toni being upset as well. Similarly, if someone treated my sister like I'd treated Toni in there obviously I'd be mortified. I wanted to apologise to her and I think she could see I was being genuine. I'm happy with how things were left."
Love Island will continue tomorrow night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

Love Island fans rage over Megan's shock return as they raise concerns for 'emotionally drained' Shakira and urge 'where's the mental health team?'
Love Island fans shared their fury on X over Megan Forte Clarke's shock return to the villa during Wednesday night's episode. Viewers expressed it was 'unfair' Megan and Blu Chegini were given a second shot in the villa. Blu was the second islander to be eliminated from the ITV show, while Megan was dramatically dumped shortly after by the public. Some fans have even accused producers of creating a 'mean girl narrative' by welcoming Megan back as they claimed she 'bullied' Shakira Khan in her first stint. Some wrote: 'I'm confused who asked for Megan and blue back ? Weren't they gone FOR A REASON. Love island US and UK were trash this year. #LoveIslandUK next thing Meg and d are winning ???

Love island FIRE who ever game maker is!! #LoveIsland' Megan's return sparked a wave of concern for Shakira's mental health, who fans said already appears 'emotionally drained' on the programme. Viewers penned on X: 'funny how love island preaches about mental health and how the public should go easy on the islanders only to THEMSELVES use the most amount of vids of shakira for the grafties to push the mean girl narrative and sent back in megan one of the buIIies', 'this princess deserved so much better. i hope she walks for her own mental health. shakira you are loved worldwide and are better than love island', 'Shakira is emotionally drained and not okay Love Island uk is responsible for her mental health the contestants the producers the therapists everyone', 'Really not keen on the production team for the constant shots thrown at shakira.

She told Conor: 'It's been twisted and you've wanted to believe the boys straight away. It's ego and pride. Wake up, Conor. 'They're literally the biggest game-players here. When have I ever lied to you? Their argument leaves Shakira feeling upset and she goes to Toni and Yasmin for comfort.
