Fans are convinced Helena Ford is deliberately stirring the pot by some of the things she has said to Shakira Khan in the villa.

There is a growing chemistry between Helena and Shakira's man Harry Cooksley - and the blonde beauty appears to be enjoying every second.

But taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan complained: "I wanted to like Helena but she’s made one too many b****y comments about Shakira. It’s giving insecure babe, give it a rest."

Another added: "Helena is giving nasty girl b****y vibes and I’m not here for it."

A third chimed in: "Helena i defended you but I'm feeling there's a little underlying grudge against Shakira i can't lie."

And a fourth said: "Helena’s snide comments about Shakira and Toni needs to stop. you’ve known the girls for 3 days…"

 

Shakira is in a couple with semi-professional footballer Harry due to Love Island's first massive twist.

The arrival of bombshell Toni Laites saw Shakira lose her man Ben Holbrough and she was tasked with finding a new connection in 24 hours.

Several of the lads stood up to show their interest in Shakira the following day and she chose to recouple with Harry - which saw his lady Sophie Lee sent home.

But in Wednesday night's show, Helena began turning Harry's head.

During a dare game around the fire pit, he gave Helena a lap dance before sitting back down and putting his hand on her leg.

He also whispered "Hideaway" to her before they sneaked off for a quick moment together.

Helena appeared delighted when Shakira learned about the leg grope after the game had finished and giggled about his cheeky move.

Moments later, Blu Chegini asked Shakira if he could have a chat with her and took her to The Hideaway.

Outside, Helena laughed as she told Harry: "Your bird is in The Hideaway!"

This comment didn't go down too well with fans of the show.

"Helena is a rat. 'Your bird’s in the hideaway'. She’s jealous. Period. And clearly not a girl’s girl," one viewer blasted.

Another added: "Getting a weird vibe from Helena. Like she's going for cool girl, but it's coming across as a bit mean? Referring to Shakira as his "bird" and then implying she's too cool to care if he's touching someone else's leg at the same time as hers."

 

Unbeknown to Helena and Harry, Shakira ended up kissing Blu in The Hideaway.
