Love Island fan in shock after seeing her ex-boyfriend on the show

People are in stitches after a TikToker revealed she spotted her ex on Love Island without 'warning'.

There's nothing worse than bumping into your ex when you're in the supermarket or stumbling across them when you and your mate are gigglingly swiping through Tinder, but this really takes the biscuit.

Prepare to howl with laughter:

If you think being reminded of your ex when Snapchat memories shares a photograph from what feels like 700 years ago is bad, imagine having to see them on your television screen and everywhere on social media for weeks on end.

Like most of us bored out of our minds in January and needing to see other young people out having fun in the sun to make ourselves feel even worse about our cold and dark surroundings, Alicia Grace Harffey sat down to watch this year's Winter Love Island.

Little did she know she was about to get the shock of her life when her alleged ex, David Salako, made a cheeky appearance on the ITV reality show on Wednesday, 18 January.

The video, captioned, 'Some warning to my ex being on Love Island would have been great,' shows Alicia reacting to David as he introduces himself to viewers.

The 24-year-old Love Island contestant says he's a money advisor from Essex, which results in shrieks of laughter from Alicia and her friends, with someone in the background claiming: "That's bulls**t."

"I've got the looks to back it up," David continues, which sees Alicia hide her face with her hands and surrounding squeals break out of, 'Eurgh'.

Viewers of the TikTok video have flooded to the post in stitches over Alicia's reaction to seeing her alleged ex in the villa.

One wrote: "And I got the looks to match it up… EUUUURRRRRRRGH! dead off!"

"Can you imagine hahah," another commented.

A third said: "New fear unlocked."

A final resolved: "Get in Casa Amor, girl!"

This isn't the first time someone has taken to social media in surprise after spotting an ex in the Love Island villa.

In 2019, Tommy Fury's ex-girlfriend spoke out, claiming the professional boxer dumped her for the show.

We may only be on the fourth day into the 2023 Winter Love Island, but viewers are already living for the drama.

Question is, will Love Island listen to viewers of Alicia's video and try to convince her to sign up and take a trip to Casa Amor so David also gets the shock of his life?
