It seems as though a lot of the fight between Joey and Omar was cut from last night’s Love Island 2024 episode, with reports explaining their row escalated a lot further than what we saw on the show.

Last night, ahead of Omar being dumped, we saw Joey Essex take him aside and row with him over Grace. Joey got in Omar’s face and told him “there’s no competition” between the two of them, and basically said Omar was wasting his time flirting with Grace. Omar was then seen calling Joey “weird and insecure” for starting a row over it all.

But, according to reports, the fight escalated a lot more, and ended up with the other Love Island boys having to get involved to pull Joey and Omar off one another.

A source told The Sun: “Joey cares about Grace and was livid when he heard Omar was flirting with her behind his back. It all came to a head on Thursday night. Joey pulled Omar aside to talk it out and explain how he and Grace were getting serious so Omar needed to back off.

“It escalated from there and they were like a pair of rutting deer – physically squaring up to each other, in each others faces and arguing. The other lads pulled them apart and Omar then cooled down by sleeping separately overnight.”

Later, Omar was dumped. Since leaving the villa he has done an interview with Love Island discussing his time there. He didn’t mention any connection formed with Grace, nor did he list Joey Essex when asked which of the boys he formed close bonds with.
