‘She does NOT want to be there’ — Love Island fans say one star looked utterly ‘miserable’ during the live final… after frosty on‑camera moments and awkward ‘snub’ spotted by eagle‑eyed viewers - suong

   

LOVE Island fans insisted one of the girls looked "miserable" at the final and "didn't want to be there".

Last night's Love Island final saw Toni Laites and Cach Mercer scoop the £50,000 prize - beating runners-up Shakira Khan and Harry Cooksley.

Helena Ford was dumped last week alongside returning Islander Blu Chegini, but she was on hand for the celebrations in Monday night's show.

However Helena was seen looking less than impressed when the camera panned to her - with fans rushing to comment on social media.

One wrote: "Did anyone notice how unhappy Helena looked? Like she couldn’t even force a smile, that girl did not want to be there."

Someone else said: "She really did - not surprising, she’s come out to some awful comments on her socials,

"Probably thought she was about to have to watch Harry get crowned and he couldn’t help himself but still basically say they were just a friendship couple."

Another said: "I feel so sad for Helena."

 

And a fourth added: "Harry’s got me feeling sympathy for Helena like she looked so sad."

But Helena was also slammed by fans for snubbing finalist Yasmin Pettet.

 

In a surprise turn of events, Yasmin and Jamie Rhodes - who were favourites to win - came third.

Helena appeared distracted as she 'ignored' what Yasmin had to say and instead caught up with fourth place star Angel Swift in full view of the cameras.

Each time the shot focused on Maya, Helena could be seen speaking to her co-star as she failed to listen in to what Yasmin had to say.

Noticing their antics online, one fan questioned: "What is Helena and Angel talking about."

Before someone else echoed: "All I could see behind Maya was angel and Helena chatting away the whole time during yaz and Jamie’s interview."
