Love Island 2018 news: Things heat up for new arrival Megan Barton Hanson and Eyal Booker kiss - but what will Alex George think?

The trio of Love Island new arrivals cause quite a stir as they each pick three Islanders to date during our first visit to the villa this week.

In scenes to be shown on Monday night, Megan Barton Hanson, Josh Denzel and Charlie Frederick have the free run of the place to choose their potential suitors and whisk them away on a first date.

While Eyal Booker and Hayley Hughes seemed to hit rock bottom with their spat over the weekend, it really does seem like romance is well and truly over after the curly haired model shared a kiss with Megan at the end of their chat.

The Essex-based model complimented her maybe beau-to-be: “I like nice curly hair so you’re winning there,” before the two shared a cheeky smooch.

But Eyal could have set himself up for drama with a different Islander as Alex George – who has so far had worse luck than Eyal in the villa – has his eyes on Megan, too.

While Eyal and Megan were away on their date, Alex told Samira Mighty: “I’m a bit worried about whether she is going to pick me or not going to pick me. I’m really hoping that she will.

“I want to have a chance to see what could happen. I feel like when we had a chat earlier on, Megan and I had a connection.

“I feel frustrated, it’s been quite a journey here so far and I just want a break… If I don’t get picked in this scenario, I don’t know where I’m at on this Island.”

Luckily, the A&E medic was Megan’s third choice for a date, but was he too late to win her affections?

Meanwhile, Megan’s first pick immediately made an enemy of Georgia Steel after she picked Niall Aslam to share a drink with.

Georgia raged: “I’m fuming. Actually fuming. No one takes my man away, no. I’ve never had competition before and I don’t like it.”

Elsewhere during the episode, a game of dares encouraged the singletons to get up close and personal with their fellow contestants – but not quite like that.

During the game, in which Hayley didn't know what an earlobe was, Josh licked Samira’s toe before taking part in a four-way kiss while Eyal seized his opportunity to kiss Megan on the lips once more instead of sucking her finger.

And, lastly, one couple got to spend the night in the hideaway after being voted to stay in the luxurious pad for one night – but who was it?

Love Island is on Monday at 9pm on ITV2.
