PILLOW TALK FAIL
Sophie Gradon and Tom Powell enjoy another Love Island romp… but viewers cringe at the pillowtalk
The Welshman admitted he had strong feelings for her - he might wish he hadn't
GEORDIE beauty queen Sophie Gradon enjoyed another romp with her Love Island boyfriend Tom Powell - but it wasn't the explicit scenes of their lovemaking that made viewers cringe.
Ahead of their bunk-up - which followed hot on the heels of one broadcast on Wednesday's show - soppy Welshman Tom told Sophie he had developed real feelings for her.

However, it didn't cause her to drop her guard and return the sentiments.
She replied, "I... like you, Tom."
In fact, the 30-year-old seemed more excited by the prospect of sleeping in a round bed than who she would be sharing it with.
The cameras cut to the couple snuggling up, and right on cue, the show's voiceover announced: "Either Sophie has asthma or..."

Later Sophie told Adam Maxted that she is keeping her options open and as much as she was enjoying the attention from Tom, she didn't consider it a long term option.
It's not clear if her reluctance stems from the horny Welshman telling her that he once had sex with a mum and her daughter in the space of a week.

Sophie explained to Adam: "I don't see us as boyfriend and girlfriend yet
"I am 30 and I want to make sure that the next person I choose is the right one."
Unbeknown to Sophie, Kady had overheard the whole conversation, and quickly went to rat to the other girls.
The young brunette was livid after Sophie and Tom took the private bedroom the night before, meaning her and club promoter Scott Thomas weren't able to have sex.

"She thinks we aren't serious as we argue, and yeah we do, but every time we argue we sort it out and it brings us closer together," Kady later complained in the Beach Hut.
Later things got awkward during the recoupling when Tom told the Islanders: "I want to couple up with this girl as since day one she took my breath away.
"We've had our ups and downs but I think she's one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen in my life."

But their joy was short-lived as Kady's Chinese whispers caught up with Sophie.
Terry stuck to his bro code guns and informed Tom of what Sophie had said about waiting for someone better.

He demanded a sit-down with Sophie, who tried to worm her way out of it, but was forced to admit that she was waiting to be swept off her feet, but not necessarily by someone else.
Sophie said: "F**k off, people in here, Chinese whispers, man.
"It's the nature of the game, get f**king real."
