SAM Thompson had little sympathy for Love Island's Harry on Aftersun after watching him break down in tears.
On Sunday night's recap show, the former Made In Chelsea star watched as Harry Cooksley started crying over his predicament with the girls.

Over the course of the last week, Harry has been seen fighting for the affection of multiple girls – coupling up with Helena, before secretly snogging bombshell Yasmin in the Hideaway, and then trying to win back Shakira, whom he had a connection with at the beginning of the show.
However, it's become clear it won't be that easy, with Shakira bluntly telling him he'll need a "personality transplant" if she were to consider getting back with him.
Speaking with Dejon by the firepit about his predicament, his pal tried to offer him words of comfort, but admitted he felt Harry had a bigger connection with Helena.
A red-eyed Harry then admitted: "I just have, like, nothing, do you know what I mean? It's just like, one minute we're good and then it's just like she can't even be around me.
"It's like.. it's just weird, man. I will never be the same now, after the way I've acted."
But Sam wasn't buying it, telling host Maya: "I'm a skeptic, so I think that he's laying awake at night, staring at the ceiling, going, 'I'm gonna look terrible, I need to cry!'"
When asked if he thought they were crocodile tears, Sam hesitated before saying: "I don't know if they're crocodile, but I feel like it's more panic about how he's looking than how he feels about the girl in question."
After airing the clip, Maya Jama asked Harry's mum Julia how she felt about seeing her son, who declared it was "good" he finally seemed to be feeling bad about his actions.
Amy Hart had a slightly more empathetic take, believing that the pressure of the villa was beginning to get to the islander.
"I think it's like a release," she explained to the group. The villa is such a pressure cooker, and there's so much going on, and normally you'd go out with your mates, like go to the pub or whatever, or go out for a run or something.

"But you can't do any of that. So I think that's just how it came out."
The full scenes and what led up to Harry's emotional moment will be aired on tonight's show, with the footballer finding himself in a rut with Helena.
Viewers previously begged Helena, 29, to stop being a "doormat" and dump Harry, 30, for good after he finally admitted to snogging Yasmin in the Hideaway.
Their actions were exposed in a brutal firepit game on Thursday night, despite them both initially denying it.
His confession prompted the blonde beauty to storm off - before her villa pal Megan Forte Clarke, 24, unleashed a sweary rant.
Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2.
