Uh oh.

Love Island’s Francesca Allen has made a surprising confession about the relationship between Curtis Pritchard and Maura Higgins.

The clothing store manager entered the villa as a late addition, alongside Chris Taylor.

And she soon found herself caught up in a love triangle, after she decided to try and get to know Curtis – who Maura had also recently admitted to fancying.

The professional dancer spent a few days trying to decide between Maura and Francesca, before ultimately coupling up with Maura.

Francesca told MailOnline that Curtis had told her his feelings for Maura were “lust,” as she spoke about the couple’s connection in the villa.

She explained:

“I mean, I don’t know if this was shown, but we had a conversation and he had told me that with Maura it was lust, but he’d like to get to know me more…

“When someone says lust, I didn’t necessarily take that as, like lust sounds to me very short-term. That’s the impression he gave me.

“He said I’m a very lovely girl and he found me attractive, so he kind of told me that he was liking me, so that’s why I carried on pursuing him. But obviously it wasn’t that way to be…”

She also spoke about how “unpredictable” the villa was, and how the Islanders’ feelings can change incredibly quickly.

She added:

“I wish he had told me sooner but I can understand that it’s easy to make a decision when you’re in there.

‘I have no bad feelings there at all, he just didn’t like me enough. Once I got out the way it was fine, once I stopped ruining it for the pair of them.”

Francesca went on to say that throughout the love triangle with Curtis, she tried to make sure that Maura was OK.

She added:

“The whole thing with me and Curtis, I just kept wanting to make sure she was OK. That was kind of my priority, but she was very understanding that that’s what just happens in here.

“I kept being like, ‘Are you alright?’, I didn’t want to be like too forward in a sense or upset anyone. Like when she cried after I coupled up with Curtis, she told me that wasn’t the reason, it was just because of her whole journey.

“I felt so bad, I thought ‘What have I done? I’ve made someone cry. I keep seeing people upset and crying.’  I thought, ‘Oh no…’, she did say that wasn’t the main reason, it was probably partially.”
