Love Island fans 'work out' reason to Grace and Konnor chat after Joey Essex 'clue'

   

Love Island fans reckon they've worked out exactly why Grace Jackson wanted a chat with Konnor Ewudzi.

In Tuesday night's episode (June 24), Grace went for a chat with bombshell Konnor – and it was rather surprising. Konnor admitted he was interested in getting to know a few islanders, including Grace, and Grace confirmed she wasn't completely closed off with current partner Joey Essex.

But viewers reckon there's motive behind the chat, after Grace and Joey found themselves at risk following last week's public vote. The couple had already been at the centre of speculation, with some fans certain Joey knew Grace would be entering as a bombshell.

One viewer said online: "Is Grace jumping ship cause they are not one of the favourite couples or she truly likes her chocolate?"

Another said: "Since Grace was in the bottom of the public vote she really be trying to run away from Joey." A third wrote: "Grace to Joey after realising the public aren't rooting for them as a couple," also sharing a meme saying "sorry to this man".

Someone else said: "Grace after grafting anyone who will listen after seeing the result of yesterday's public vote." Another added: "Grace does not want Joey anymore it's so obvious."

One viewer added: "Have noticed that since Grace found herself in the bottom three, she has been trying to run away from Joey." As another said: "Joey eyeing up Grace moving to Konnor after it turns out the public aren't rooting for them two."

But the shock came just moments later, when it was time for a re-coupling. As expected, Matilda Draper chose to couple up with free agent Sean Stone, after they have been growing close.

However, rather than choosing a single girl like Jess White, Konnor made a bold move. He decided to steal Grace from Joey, leaving everyone in the villa stunned to silence.
