It has happened to us all.
It’s one of those things that we all fear doing but sometimes it just can’t be helped. It’s always a time when you feel a little bit insecure or you’re in unusual territory, like when you start a new job or… meet somebody’s other half for the first time.
Yep, it’s saying a name wrong.
The unfortunate little blip happens to Curtis’ mum tonight right after she meets Maura.
Curtis heads over to the sun deck with his parents. After chatting about the dirty dancing challenge, his mum then says, “Moira is beautiful. She’s lovely. I think you just gel because she’s got fire!”
Curtis corrects his mum after she pronounced Maura’s name incorrectly, saying, “Maura!”
Listen, it’s nothing… but we’re pretty sure she only died inside when Curtis corrected her.
As we’ll see tonight, Maura is keen to know what her mum thinks of Curtis. Maura’s mum says, “He’s nice. I’m trusting your judgement. And I know you’re not a bad judge of character. If you’re happy, then I am happy.”
Maura and Curtis bring their families together but Maura is nervous about what his family think of her. Speaking in the Beach Hut, she says, “I say some random stuff in here and I’m not sure if parents would like that!”
We’re just going to have to find out how they get on later!
Love Island airs tonight at 9pm on Virgin Media Two. Love Island USA airs directly afterwards.
