While Camilla Thurlow took a shine to Chris, the viewers decided to hook her up with Jonny but things didn't go well on their date.

The beautiful blonde explained to Jonny about her job as a humanitarian which sees her blow up bombs in areas where there has been conflict.

As she told him about the different countries she's been to, Jonny quipped: "Well you've been around...oh I don't mean like that! Sorry".

It all went down hill from there as Camilla didn't warm to Jonny's charms.

Viewers took to Twitter to express just how awkward their interaction was, with many saying the charity worker is "too smart" to be on the show.

One wrote: "Was cringing so much at that date.. bless Camilla being so quiet though, she's too smart to be on the show! #LoveIsland".

Another said: "Camilla & Johnny date! The most awkward date I have ever watched on TV! FRIEND ZONE !🌴 #loveisland #loveisland2017".

Meanwhile, on Wednesday night's instalment the boys branded Camilla, who locked lips with Harry in 2014, "wife material" because she wore a shorts and tshirt to work out while the other girls wore bikinis.

She arrived to the villa on Tuesday and struggled to explain her job to her housemates.

Her co-star Amber Davies said her job was "mental" but admitted she "loved" the fact Camilla, who is so "passionate" about her work, has decided to come on the show.

Despite snogging a member of the royal family, posh Camilla insists that working in the field of Explosive Ordnance Disposal has prevented her developing relationships.

After chatting to two of her female love rivals Amber and Montana Brown, Camilla said: "I did start to feel like we were bonding a bit more.

"I feel a bit more comfortable around them now, I'm able to open up a little bit."

In the meantime viewers have been saying Camilla is "too intelligent" for the programme and "does not belong" on it.

Others called her "boring" and attacked her for keeping her shirt on in Wednesday night's instalment.

However, others have tipped her to win and praised the "classy" lady's "brains", "respect" and "authenticity".

Camilla, who describes herself as "really competitive", has denied that kissing Prince Harry was a big deal.

She said: “I don’t think it’s my claim to fame but my proudest achievement was playing lacrosse for Scotland in the junior world championships."

The sporty lass's fitness certainly helped her last night during a rather competitive workout display the girls put on in front of the lads.
