LOVE Island fans have begged Joey Essex to "run for the hills" after Towie fan Samantha quizzed him over his celeb life. On tonight's show, the pair hit the rocks as they admitted they were unsure where their head was at after a rocky 24 hours. During the episode, Joey mentioned his appearance on The Keith Lemon Show panel, which prompted Samantha to ask him more about his life on the outside.
She asked the star to "name drop" what other celebs appeared on the same episode. But her questions appeared to leave Joey uncomfortable, with him adamant that he wouldn't speak about it. Later on, the duo clashed when Joey said he doesn't want a woman to be with him just because he's famous.
Samantha wanted to gain some clarity on her connection with Joey and pulled him for a chat. The Liverpudlian said: "I’m not being funny or nothing but you are Joey Essex so I know what girls are like, do you know what I mean. "They’re going to go ‘oh Joey Essex is in there so they’re going to be like, right, let’s get on Joey Essex’.
Unsure what to make of Samantha’s observation, Joey looked bemused as Samantha quipped back: “They are Joe, I’m not stupid.” Joey then told Samantha: “If someone is with me for that reason, because I’m Joey Essex, that’s not for me, I promise you, that is not for me.” Samantha asked: “Well what do you think about me, do you think I’m like that?” Joey expressed that he doesn't want to be with a girl who likes his status.
Some fans think.
