It looks like facing the post Casa Amor music is all too much for Kavan Murphy, who has backtracked on his decision to explore a connection with bombshell Charleen Murphy.<\/p>\n

Kavan, who was coupled up with Jasmine but on a break during Love Island\u2019s ultimate test, brought Charleen back<\/a> to the main villa earlier this week, but things have already fallen apart.<\/p>\n

On Friday\u2019s show, Kav pulled Charleen for a chat and admitted that he\u2019s \u2018made a mistake\u2019 and wants to focus on winning Jasmine back\u2026 right, Kav!<\/p>\n

\u2018I don\u2019t understand why you brought me back here,\u2019 Charleen said to him, with Kavan looking a little sheepish as he replied: \u2018I feel sorry that I did in a way; I don\u2019t know where I\u2019m at to be honest.\u2019<\/p>\n

He continued: \u2018I want to prioritise Jas, I\u2019m sorry, Charleen. Maybe it\u2019s got to me, the Casa thing, but I\u2019ll be truthful now, that\u2019s where I\u2019m at.<\/p>\n

‘I\u2019m not going to sit here and go \u201cI\u2019m still going to get to know you” because that\u2019s not fair on you.’<\/p>\n

Charleen then told him: ‘The whole thing isn\u2019t fair on me\u2026 the amount of chats we had, kissing and whatever in Casa, and that just.. shite.’<\/p>\n

‘I\u2019ve made a mistake, that\u2019s something I\u2019ve got to just hold\u2026 I understand how you\u2019re feeling, and all I can do is say sorry,\u2019 Kav told her, sparking Charleen to say: \u2018I\u2019m a mistake, grand.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ouch Kav, nobody likes to be called a mistake. <\/p>\n

Charleen went on to say the situation felt like she was \u2018being ghosted in real life\u2019 and that she knew something was up with Kav as soon as they walked to their seats by the fire pit during the recoupling.<\/p>\n

Charleen said that he dropped her hand after telling everyone he was bringing her back to the villa and knew \u2018the second that happened we were done, I could feel it off you a mile away.\u2019<\/p>\n

Later, talking to the cameras, Charleen seemed frustrated at the situation but overall okay. She summed it up perfectly, saying: \u2018I just think Kav is silly because he\u2019s potentially fumbled not just one but two baddies.’<\/p>\n

We think she\u2019s bang on there as it\u2019s not like Jasmine is standing in the villa waiting to take Kavan back with open arms.<\/p>\n

Kavan and Jasmine also had a tense chat on Friday, where Kav said he \u2018doesn\u2019t think he has something better\u2019 with Charleen and Jas saying this situation feels like the \u2018closest thing to someone cheating\u2019 on her.<\/p>\n

Jasmine put him in his place, telling him about the selfie she received during Casa of Kav and Charleen kissing and saying that he\u2019s been \u2018game playing\u2019 her.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m going to step back and just let you do your thing, and it is what it is really in here now; we live in the same house,\u2019 Jasmine added, seemingly shutting down a connection for now.<\/p>\n

That said, she did later send the lads over to check on Kavan after he chatted with Charleen, which they spun to him as a sign she’s still interested and cares about him. <\/p>\n

With everything up in the air, Sunday’s movie night special is going to be very interesting. We have a feeling that there will be plenty more angry words exchanged when the tapes are played…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It looks like facing the post Casa Amor music is all too much for Kavan Murphy, who has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":532704,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[93,61,60,282],"class_list":["post-532703","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/532703","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=532703"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/532703\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/532704"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=532703"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=532703"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=532703"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
