Love Island fans were surprised by The Only Way Is Essex star Frankie Essex's cameo appearance.

Tonight's (July 22) episode aired the fallout of yesterday's dramatic award show, which saw the couples nominated in a range of categories, including Flirtiest Performance and Ultimate Pot Stirrer.

The tense ceremony also saw newcomers Lola and Harry get dumped from the villa after winning the award for Least Favourite Couple.

As the Grafties continued to cause conflict amongst the cast, they were pleasantly surprised when their loved ones visited them.

Frankie revealed how much she likes Jessy, saying: "When you do get a little bit out of line, you know what I'm like with you, she goes 'no Joe', that's so good she does that."

Viewers were pleased that Frankie called out Joey's actions in the villa, with one writing: "When your own sister keeps saying you need to drop it."
