One fan said: “Charlie basically forced the kiss on Jess.”
Another wrote: “No one else bothered by the way Charlie planted his kiss on Jess? When she was already saying there was too much drama that morning?”
A third fumed: “The way Charlie just kisses these women in the middle of sentences is gross and disgusting.”
A fourth person added: “Was it just me or was anyone else unsettled in the way that Charlie kissed Jess? It gave off a really weird vibe; but then everything he says and does gives off a weird vibe lol.”
Fans of the All Stars series were gobsmacked by the way Charlie has been conducting himself in the South African villa.
Later on in the episode fans watched on as Charlie seemed to do a complete 180 after his kiss with the 25-year-old aesthetics clinic owner.

Jess appeared very downcast in the episode as she tried to navigate the triangle, bursting into tears multiple times.

The Islander then told Millie she was done with Charlie as couldn’t handle the drama it was causing.
“Mills I am removed. I can’t do it no more. I’ve been crying all day cause I’ve just felt so much guilt.”
