Love Island’s Samatha Kenny reacts strongly to Joey Essex dumping Grace Jackson for a sex bomb

Love Island star Samantha Kenny has reacted strongly because Joey Essex dumped Grace Jackson in favor of a new sex bomb.

These years Love Island there was a constant stream of first-class dramas.

ITV’s reality dating show kept its promise of excitement.

When 12 hopeful singles were placed in the stunning villa, sparks immediately started flying.

For us, the ultimate surprise came when reality TV veteran Joey Essex appeared as the show’s first celebrity bombshell.

He spoke openly about his decision to become an Islander, saying: “I just want someone to like me for who I am and because of what they see on TV.”

“This is exactly why I go to the villa, because there you are disconnected from the rest of the world and can concentrate on what really matters on a much deeper level.”

He teamed up with make-up artist Samantha from Liverpool and the two seemed to be on the road to love.

But on June 13, everything was thrown into disarray when Joey’s ex-girlfriend Grace Jackson entered the villa.

Joey was immediately attracted to her and the two were in a relationship that had all the hallmarks of a lasting romance.

But it would not be Love Island without a lot of unexpected drama, right?

Joey has left Grace for a new bombshell, Jessy Potts.

After Samantha was brutally kicked off the island, she refused to keep her true opinion on the whole thing to herself.

She told MailOnline: “Now she knows how I felt. But at least Jessy went out onto the terrace to kiss Joey, but she did it on the loungers right in front of me. Now she’s had a taste of her own medicine.”

“I went on Love Island expecting to meet Kev the Carpenter but lo and behold, in walked Joey Essex. I didn’t watch TOWIE for years but I watched it as a teenager because of Gemma Collins… I was never interested in Joey, I was more interested in GC and Bobby Norris, they’re iconic.”

She continued: “I know a few people from TOWIE anyway, so instead of thinking ‘Oh my God, there’s Joey Essex’, I thought ‘Oh my God, there’s Joey because he was on the show.'”

She added the brutal admission: “If I had seen him on an evening out, I wouldn’t have batted an eyelid, but that’s because he’s on Love Islandwhich was so unexpected.”

Making sure people know where she really stands, she concluded: “People said I was fame hungry and a Joey Essex fangirl… no I’m not, I’ve been a Gemma Collins fan since I was a kid.”

Fair enough.
