While a third added: 'What does Remmel mean it wasn't his decision to dump Poppy? Producers pushing the agenda? Did he let that slip?'
And another added: 'Wait.. did remell said it wasn't his decision to dumb poppy.'
Others however were quick to clarify what he meant - that he didn't know she would go home if she wasn't picked.
Speaking about his time on the show, Remell said: 'Despite me having what seemed to be a good connection with Poppy, my heart was telling me that I had to see it through with Alima. The dynamic with Poppy was more what I'm used to on the outside. But building up slowly with Alima made me realise that that's important.

'I didn't necessarily have to share the bed and kiss outside of the Truth or Dare game, however, being true to myself I'm naturally very flirty. I still acted like how I would on the outside.
'There was never a conversation with Alima about being exclusive, we hadn't had that chat and hadn't spoken properly about boundaries either.'

He admitted that things with Alima didn't end on the best of terms, saying: 'Things were left a bit sour. The reality is, the woman that was opening my heart and turning me into a lover boy is never going to truly know how I feel about her.
'I was ready to tell her everything once I came back to the Villa, but because the conversation didn't end well, we didn't get to properly talk. We're both stubborn so it was hard to see eye to eye.'

Harrison told her: "I felt that finally we were going to couple up, I was so ready for it, I was so ready to sleep in a bed with you."

Harrison said: "No, I didn't know what I was going to do, I was 50/50. I didn't know what I was going to do honestly. "I just think it's hard for me because yesterday you were up there but obviously that's 24 hours and we've not been talking." Harrison went on to say: "Can we just be normal?," before he and Toni shared a small peck.
