LOVE Island's Tyrique Hyde has hit the ground running and already found himself in the centre of the new series' first love triangle.
Tyrique, 23, sent sparks flying after making a very blunt remark to his current love interest Ella Thomas, also 23.
At the start of Wednesday's episode, he told her: "You're not really my type, I'll be honest."
Yet a split second earlier, he was seen gushing to Jess Harding: "I've got a lot of time for you."
Watching in horror, one fan tweeted: "How’s Tyrique moving to Jess already and telling Ella she’s not his type? Side eye!"

Another added: "Tyrique all up on Jess - like that is mad."
And a third simply wrote: "Jess Tyrique Ella triangle."
As Wednesday's episode got underway, Tyrique made a beeline for Jess as she relaxed on one of the day beds.
He then put his arm around her - as Ella looked on, furious.
Once again, Tyrique's play for Jess came after he'd claimed to the boys that he had "no complaints" with Ella.
He even described her as a "good girl" to his guy pals.
One viewer asked: "How is Tyrique grafting Jess literally minutes after telling the boys he's feeling Ella and he's got no complaints.."
And someone else chimed in: "Wow Tyrique and Jess are very cozy there init!"
Tyrique's switch up with the ladies comes just 24 hours after he made a "disgusting" confession in a challenge called Wary Tales.
The Islanders were asked to guess who a certain statement was about, before planting a kiss on them to confirm their choice.

One of the statements read aloud by Molly Marsh asked: "Which boy stopped keeping count of his body count when it hit 100?"
Instantly the girls were left gasping, but it was what semi-pro footballer Tyrique had to say next that left them with a sour taste in their mouth.
As the girls asked him to explain the story, he said: "Yeah, obviously, it's not a flex.
"I've been single my whole life, innit so... Pulling and s***ing is all I know really."
Fuming in the beach hut, Ella said: "It was his reaction for me, why would you say that?"
Tyrique is a fast mover, however, and by the end of Wednesday's episode he had 'friend-zoned' Jess - and then shared a snog with Ella.
