Love Island fans have rushed to defend Irish bombshell Martin after the latest episode of the show.
On Tuesday night, the contestants took part in the Knowing Me, Knowing You challenge, to find out how well the couples really know their partners.
Viewers took to Twitter after the challenge to slam the contestants “unfair” treatment of Martin, who they say was “targeted”.
Some of the Islanders branded Martin the “least genuine” during the game, before explaining that they only chose him because they’ve known him the least amount of time.
However, fans pointed out that the stars have known Casa Amor’s Maxwell the exact same length of time, but his name was not called out during the challenge.
One fan tweeted: “all their excuses for picking martin is they’ve known him the least amount of time… there’s literally another guy from casa in there…”
Another wrote: “Don’t get why anyone chose Martin in that game unless its to keep the peace but it was sooo unfair. Guy’s done nothing.”
A third penned: “Really unfair how they coming for Martin in that game.”

Martin is definitely low-key being targeted now by the islanders now.
He’s new in there and everyone likes Tanya and Shaq individually and together so like he’s an easy target I guess but I don’t like it.#talkswithash #loveisland— Aliya Langley (@aliyalangley) February 21, 2023
