Love Island viewers were left fuming with Mitchel Taylor as he dumped partner Liberty Poole just hours after choosing her in the recoupling during Friday’s episode.

The former gas engineer, 27, was seen pulling Liberty, 24, for a chat, insisting he’d been ‘transparent with her and that he’d told Liberty he wanted to be open to chatting to other girls throughout.

Mitch said: ‘I’m fed up of being stressed,’ which which Liberty said: ‘It’s fine, we’ll just be friends.’

She then went over and told Kaz: ‘We’ve just decided to be friends because it’s not healthy to have this many arguments and we don’t know if it’s even salvageable at this point because of everything that’s gone on us.

‘It’s sad though because I do feel like we had something special.’

The moment left viewers unimpressed, with one person writing on Twitter: ‘HOW DARE MITCH SAY THAT. It’s his actions that upset Liberty!!! Then twisting it and blaming liberty for the reason why girls don’t talk to him. What a p**ck.’

Another person posted: ‘How is Mitch convincing Liberty that she caused all these arguments? GET HIM OUT. DRAFT HIM IN WW3.’

While someone else shared: ‘Why is Mitch moving like Liberty was the one causing stress?? Is he alright??’

‘Nah not Mitch blaming Liberty for other girls not getting to know him. Wow I can’t believe,’ wrote another viewer, while someone else posted: ‘The way he made Lib feel like she made the decision to end it.’

Someone else wrote: ‘Mitch says that he doesn’t know what he wants and that no girl wants to talk to him because of how upset Liberty has been. It is interesting because if no girl wants to talk to him, then why his in the villa? Just causing drama all the time will get boring.’

And another show fan posted: ‘How can Mitch go from saying he doesn’t wanna get to know anyone else to saying he’s not sure if he even likes Liberty??? to than friend zoning her.’

Another viewer shared: ‘Pob eared Mitch looking down on Liberty believing he is too good for ….mental.’

While someone else wrote: ‘Liberty you’re better off without Mitch girl it’s a blessing.’

The moment left viewers unimpressed, with many taking to social media to claim Mitchel had blamed Liberty for things that weren’t her responsibility

Aside from Liberty and Mitchel, Friday’s recouping saw Hannah couple-up with Tyler, Callum choose Georgia S, Toby pair up with Arabella, Anton match with Georgia H and Chris choose to couple up with Kaz.

However Chris’s recoupling speech caused a stir within the villa.

He said: ‘Obviously it’s been a bit of a s**ter today, hasn’t it. My current couple… it’s been a slightly turbulent day to say the least and we’ve literally just finished it, so slight predicament on my part.

‘I think… Don’t know what I think… I think based on the situation that I’ve been faced with today there’s somebody in front of me here that I cannot move forward with.

‘So the girl that I would like to couple up with is Kaz.’

Looking stunned, Kaz pointed at herself and asked: ‘Me?!’

Sitting down next to Chris, she said of Arabella: ‘That’s really rude to her, like embarrassed her.’

He asked her: ‘What do you mean? We just ended it?’

Chris said he’d had a difficult day with his former show partner Arabella after they’d had an argument

Defending himself later, Chris said: ‘I didn’t know what to do because today I was vulnerable in front of her and she turned round and said I was being disingenuous.’

Kaz said: ‘So this is how I understood the situation, when she was talking about the whole disingenuous thing, I thought she meant it made her feel like from the beginning you were…

‘That’s how I understood this whole situation.’

Chris said: ‘There’s a whole big piece missing here whereby what I did on the date was more “genuous”, which isn’t a word, than disingenuous because I gave it a chance and I was open and honest with her about things that I find difficult talking about.’

It came after Chris admitted he had a ‘crush’ on bombshell Sophie Piper during Thursday’s episode of the show.

Chris had been busy getting to know model Arabella, who he shared a number of steamy kisses with before Sophie, 25, entered the South African villa during Wednesday’s show.

The younger sister of Rochelle Humes, who appeared on series six of the ITV2 dating show, chose Chris for a date where they seemed very flirty.

Following the date, Chris pulled Arabella for a chat revealing he and Sophie had ‘met before’ and there was a spark between them.

He said: ‘Me and Sophie have met before and I’ll be honest, I have had a crush on her for a bit.

‘She ended the date saying she wants to keep chatting to me and I share the same sentiment’.

Arabella was completely taken aback by the conversation and went to ask Josh Ritchie for advice.

The next morning Chris pulled Sophie for a chat and the pair walked around the villa holding hands leaving Arabella absolutely fuming.
