TOWIE star Joey Essex's arrival came at a cost for Sam Taylor, who is from Chesterfield
Derbyshire's Love Island contestant was dramatically removed from the villa just a day after making their debut on the ITV 2 series, despite calls for them to win the show. Sam Taylor, from Chesterfield, was abruptly dismissed from the programme in scenes that followed the surprise arrival of celebrity newcomer Joey Essex.
As Tuesday night's episode concluded, he had to choose which girl he wanted to partner with. Joey decided to couple up with Samantha, leaving her previous partner Sam Taylor single.But the shocks didn't end there. Sam realised that as a result of Joey stealing his girl, he had been immediately evicted from the villa, reports the Mirror. Tears filled the villa garden as the Islanders grasped that Sam had been sent home already, just one day into the villa experience.
Host Maya welcomed him into the villa in the first episode, but the show ended before we saw what happened next. It was then confirmed at the start of the subsequent episode that Joey had a significant decision to make. She then told Joey: "Joey, in 24 hours you will have the opportunity to steal one of these beautiful girls." It was reported on Tuesday that someone would be leaving the show just hours into the series, with Joey's choice sending one person packing.
