Dumped Love Islander Patsy Field has revealed Joey Essex banned his co-stars from talking about the hit series Towie.
The reality TV legend entered the villa as the show’s first celebrity contestant on day two of the series.
The 33-year-old shot to fame on the iconic reality show with many of his fellow islanders quoting the show – leading to some embarrassing moments.
Patsy told Closer: “Everyone was quoting Towie. All of the girls were quoting Towie.”
“Joey put us on a Towie quote ban at one point and said, ‘We’re going to need to drop it now.'”
She continued: “But we couldn’t help it and we said, ‘We’re not actually quoting Towie, we’re just quoting The GC (Gemma Collins).’”
“She is a living legend, so can you blame us really?,” she added.
Earlier this week, Love Island expressed their outrage over Samantha Kenny being dumped from the villa.
The Liverpool native lost her place on the show after she was left single in the recoupling, leaving her best friend in the villa Nicole Samuel in floods of tears.
The makeup artist had been coupled up with Joey, but their romance hit the rocks when his former flame Grace Jackson entered the villa as a bombshell over the weekend.
The exes wasted no time in rekindling their romance as Grace invited Joey to join her in Casa Amor for a “sleepover”, leaving Samantha heartbroken.
In upsetting scenes, Samantha threatened to walk out of the villa as Joey and Grace returned from Casa Amor and kissed in front of her and the rest of the Islanders.
