Love Island fans have accused Blu Chegini of 'begging for screentime' after he sparked yet another row with Toni Laites in Wednesday's challenge.
The pair had butted heads days earlier when Blu criticised Toni's behaviour towards Cach Mercer, before branding her a 'weirdo' and mocking her American accent.
And during the already-tense Couple Goals challenge, Toni and Blu clashed once again, when he snarklily branded her a 'pick me girl.'
Given Blu had prevously placed himself at the centre of tensions in the villa on several occasions, fans were quick to call out his behaviour, especially after he was rejected by Angel Swift and Yasmin Pettet days earlier.
Posts on X included: 'Blu's Love Island journey is the most embarrassing one I've genuinely ever watched and him falling on his a*s is so poetic;
'Blu calling Toni a pick me when he's the one basically begging for screentime;
'You can just tell that Blu seen the comments about him being irrelevant when he was first in the villa, and has OBVIOUSLY set himself a mission to try and be as relevant as possible but instead he's been annoying AF since he returned;
'I get 2nd hand embarrassment every time Blu speaks;
'Blu moving like Randall;
'Blu literally has a vendetta against Toni and it's really uncomfortable to watch;
'Blu calling Toni and pick-me girl but the whole season not ONE girl has picked you??'
Elsewhere in Wednesday's episode, the girls proved the divide was still well and truly in place.
Called the biggest divide in the show's history, the entire series has centred around the ongoing feud between the two groups of girls: Shakira, Toni and Yas versus Meg and Helena.
The Islanders continued to take part in the tense Couple Goals challenge - but when the Islanders were asked 'Which couple are you most scared to give your honest opinion on?' shockwaves were sent through the Villa.

Shakira and Harry chose Meg and Dejon, which did not go down well.
'I think if people were honest in the first place and told us to our faces instead of saying it constantly behind our back, it would be a different story,' Meg raged.
Shakira responded: 'You throwing around the fake word is rich to be honest. I don't know why you keep acting like we're the best of mates in here.
'From day one, you were very standoffish with any girl that was posed as a threat.'
'I think you've called every single person in this Villa fake,' Meg bit back, to which Shakira said: 'No, I will never pretend to be your mate.'
Meg interrupted 'You won't be my friend on the outside' before Shakira said: 'I will never speak to you on the outside. I honestly can't stand you sometimes.'
But that wasn't all because when it comes to Meg and Dejon's turn to answer, both Meg and Blu become embroiled in a back and forth with Toni before Blu brands Toni a 'pick-me girl'.
The chaos came just two episodes after Toni brought the girls around the firepit to try and bridge the divide and call a truce.
But recent scenes have shown the divide is as strong as ever.
Viewers said: 'The divide is actually insane… i'm sat here raging at my TV screen,';
'I've watched love island since Series 1 and this series is hands down the most uncomfortable to watch. This girl divide is f****n awful. The smart ass comments thrown about, the sly digs, the ganging up on 1 girl…it's actually draining,';
'The Great Villa Divide of 2025 is alive and well,'; 'I've never seen THIS strong of a divide in the villa before,';
'so funny they had a whole convo about no more divide and now it's like even worse AHAHAHAH,';
'So much for Tonie and Meg wanting to squash the divide between the girls .. It's gone further apart since their girls intervention the other night'.
While others noted that they had never seen such a 'toxic' series, especially with the finale just days away.
Love Island continues on Thursday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
