Kildare’s own Victoria has coupled up with a boy in the Love Island villa but did not receive the reaction she wanted

Kildare bombshell Victoria coupled up with Ope in the latest episode of Love Island.

Ope previously went on a date with Victoria when she first entered Love Island. He laid it on thick with her and even tried to persuade her to kiss him on their date.

Ope was coupled up with Angelista since the start of the show and she was no happy with Ope’s behaviour on his date.

Upon returning from his date, Ope apologized to Angelista and told her he would make it right with her. Ope continued to have flirty chats with Victoria but ultimately was still set on his coupling with Angelista.

Victoria also shared a cheeky kiss with Sam on the terrace who is looking for a romantic coupling. Sam not long after took the other new bombshell Namibia to the hideaway for a kiss.

In last night’s episode, Victoria and Namibia both got to choose two boys to couple up with.

Namibia went first and chose Sam, leaving Victoria with her only other love interest Ope.

When Victoria picked Ope he was visibly frustrated straight away. He sat visibly separated from her and was sighing loudly, making it clear he wasn’t happy.

Later, Victoria was talking to the girls about Ope’s reaction to coupling up with her.

She said, “I just thought the reaction was insane. Obviously the situation isn’t ideal for both of us, not just him”.

Namibia agreed and said, “he was huffing and puffing. He was like rubbing his eyebrows. He made it so obvious”.

Victoria then said, “I thought at one point he was preforming. It’s giving preforming”.

When the two chatted later Victoria explained to Ope why she wasn’t happy.

Ope explained to her that he wasn’t mad that she picked him but he was just annoyed with the situation as a whole.

She emphasised to him again that he was “huffing and puffing and being performative”.

Dissatisfied by his explanation, Victoria puts an end to the conversation. “I’m thankful you apologised,” she says, “but I think this conversation is giving nothing for me right now.”

Their chat ended leaving Victoria up in the air on what she is going to do next.

Will she be able to find love in the Love Island Villa?
