Watch the moment Virgin Island stars CLASH during very awkward encounter on the beach
CHANNEL 4's Virgin Island saw an uncomfortable moment between two of the contestants last night. Advertisement 6 Charlotte gave Jason a back massage Credit: Channel 4 6 She then said she was bored, so Jason gave her an arm massage Credit: Channel 4 6 Jason was using up and down movements to give her a massage Credit: Channel 4 6 But Charlotte was unimpressed with his technique Credit: Channel 4 Jason and Charlotte, two of the virgins on the island, were tasked with giving one another a massage while on the beach. Charlotte started the massage session and began rubbing Jason's back. "Why do you have these horrible stretch marks? It looks painful. It looks like you got scratched," she said to him. Jason looked uncomfortable, but Charlotte didn't ask him what was wrong and instead stated how bored she was. Advertisement Read More about Virgin Island "I'm bored now. I'm bored now," she said while rubbing Jason's back and then abruptly stopping. Jason popped his shirt back on and then said to Charlotte: "Right, which arm first?" before giving her a massage. After Charlotte told his what arm to begin on, Jason got to work. Instantly unimpressed by his technique, Charlotte slammed: "Okay, why are you focused on one area? You need to go up and down. Advertisement Most read in TV Exclusive "Do you want me to show you on you?" Jason then got some more baby oil and proceeded to massage Charlotte's arm again. Virgin Island viewers outraged over 'uncomfortable' moment with sex expert as they brand show 'creepy' "More thumb! More movement!" Charlotte demanded sternly. She then said: "You need to be doing the whole arm." Advertisement Jason massaged her arm again and said: "That's all of it." Charlotte looked irritated and said: "Jesus Christ, what are you doing?" Could you handle the truth about love? It's the smash-hit Channel 4 reality show where honesty isn't just encouraged – it's the only rule. But with the final week approaching, are the Truetopians (aka the contestants) starting to buckle under the pressure? Last week The Honesty Box hit boiling point when one contestant made a jaw-dropping confession, admitting their 'romance' was nothing but a 'showmance'. And if that wasn't enough, new arrivals were thrown straight into the chaos, tasked with deciding who to couple up with – and who to banish from Truetopia for good. As cracks start to show in day-one couples, and wandering eyes stir up even more tension, the big question looms: is honesty really worth it when it breaks hearts and fuels chaos, even if it adds to the cash pot Guided by hosts Vicky Pattison and Lucinda Light, the Truetopians are being pushed to their limits. Will they finally come clean with themselves and the rest of the villa? Especially when one contestant finds himself trapped in a messy love triangle, tangled in his own web of the final episodes just around the corner, the stakes couldn't be higher. Who will stay true to their hearts – and the experiment? Who will be axed from the villa? And who will cause so much drama that they can't even tell the truth from their own lies? To find out, stream The Honesty Box on Channel 4 now. Jason then mimicked a NSFW action as he cupped his hands around her arm and went up and down it. "That's how you do it," he said, referring to the action while massaging Charlotte. Advertisement "Okay, now I definitely want you to stop," she slammed. The pair then returned to the retreat and spoke about the massage experience with the fellow contestants. When asked how it was, Charlotte said: "Meh." Jason then sat down with Louise, a fellow virgin on the show, who asked him if he liked the massage. Advertisement "It was a disaster," he confessed, adding: "I whipped off my shirt and everything." He then mimicked Charlotte's comments about his stretchmarks and added: "Maybe not being berated a lot would have felt nice ." 6 Jason gave the massage to Charlotte while they were on the beach Credit: Channel 4 6 Charlotte made demands as Jason touched her arm Credit: Channel 4 Advertisement
