In recent scenes on Love Island, Helena Ford, 29, has caused much controversy in the villa.
In the heart-rate challenge, the star whispered into Harry Cooksley's ear that she cannot wait to "f***" him as fans thought she was the 'real villain'.
This is despite the fact that he was happily coupled up with Shakira Khan, 22, for at least two weeks.
Later, she invited the semi-professional footballer to the hideaway in a shock move, leaving regular viewers in a frenzy.
However, some fans think she is only doing this to get a reaction from the islander she secretly interested in.
In a dedicated thread on social media fan forum platform Reddit, one fan suggested that Helena just wants to get 'a rise' from Shakira.
Writing on the site, the fan bizarrely suggested: "I fully think that Helena wants Shakira.
'It's like she's intentionally trying to get a rise out of her, just to speak to her and get shouted at by her.
"She does so many calculated things to purposely piss shakira off.
"For example, wearing her bikini twice now, first time without mentioning anything to S hoping S will pull her up on it.

"And tonight saying to the girls she's going to wear S bikini, then actually telling S she will again maybe hoping for anything from S but all she says is 'you go, girl.'
"From stealing any man that shows interest in her, it goes beyond just being jealous at this point i think.
They added: "I think she likes Shakira, and is just p****** her off for fun to get a rise out of her.
"Or maybe she's is just a jealous girl, who knows. Seems weird tho."

However, other fans think that Helena is simply 'jealous' of her fellow islander.
Replying to the thread, another fan stated: "Why is she always wearing Shakira's bikinis too?! Like it's really giving she wants to be Shakira!"
As someone else claimed: "She wants to BE Shakira. Some jealous white girls can't comprehend that a coloured woman is more desired and sought after than she is."
