The make-up artist has been coupled with the TOWIE alumni, 33, for the past two weeks yet, with the arrival of bombshell Grace Jackson, their connection has plummeted.

Manchester-based model Grace, 25, had history with Joey and, after taking him to the spin off villa for a sleepover, they have been loved up ever since.
After reigniting their spark the lovebirds will return to the main Mallorca villa tonight – knowing full well Samantha, 27, will be there wanting answers.
Samantha and villa pal Harriett Blackmore, 24 – who herself has had a rocky Love Island ride – headed to the fire pit for a catch up last night and, on spin-off programme Aftersun, host Maya Jama said: “Let’s see how Samantha reacts after their sexy sleepover.”
A preview clip for tonight’s ITV2 show then played out showing the Liverpudlian with her head in her hands as she sobbed over the reality TV star’s return.
Samantha questioned whether Joey tried to find her on his return to the compound, as she then told Jess: “Did he f**k.
“He doesn’t give a flying f**k about my feelings.”
Jess White, 25, who headed to the terrace to console her, said: “You don’t know until you hear him out what he’s going to say.”
Joey then entered the terrace looking hugely sheepish – and not uttering a word.
Jess, taking control of the situation, told him: “She’s fine, she’ll come down in a minute Joe.”
Viewers will see the full scenes play out on Love Island tonight – but they are bound to be explosive.
It comes after viewers saw the Essex lad locking lips with his ex – yet, at present, Samantha is yet to know the full story.
They enjoyed a cheeky snog in the pool before looking loved up all night in the spin-off villa.
SHOCK SHAKE-UP
The Sun had previously exclusively revealed how the sleepover would cause a huge villa shake-up.
They were first to tell us: “The three islanders that the bombshells picked threw the whole villa into chaos – people were gasping out loud and crying in the beach hut.
Love Island line-up 2024
Love Island is back on the box with a brand new batch of sexy islanders all looking for love this summer.
The Girls
The boys
Dumped:
- Patsy Field – Influencer Patsy Field went in week two.
- Munveer Jabbal – Munveer Jabbal also left the villa in week two.
- Sam Taylor – Hairdresser Sam Taylor was first to go after Joey Essex stole his girl.
“The two boys who get picked by Grace and Tiff are really shocked and it rips apart one established couple and a love triangle.
“The twist has come at the perfect time for maximum drama, because who knows what will happen in Casa Amor when they stay the night.”
SPICE IT UP
After witnessing Grace and Joey’s PDA on their evening away, show fans appear hugely in favour of their reunion.
One took to X to remark: “These Grace and Joey kisses are giving SEX. They’re happy to be back ‘together’.”
Another then wrote: “I don’t think Joey has kissed Samantha this much. CARNAGE.”
A third continued: “Grace and Joey are a hot couple I’m here for it.”
Others then argued Samantha – along with sweet seller Sean – should be sent home because of their lack of emotional connection.
Samantha had slept outside after the bombshell twist was revealed and, given Joey has now reconnected with Grace, some fans thing her time on the matchmaking series has come to a natural end.
