Love Island’s Danny Bibby makes move on AJ after ditching Lucinda Strafford

Love Island’s latest bombshell has certainly caused a stir in the villa after he appeared to cast his focus on AJ bunker shortly after agreeing to cool things off with Lucinda Strafford.

The 25-year-old plumber, who hails from Wigan, is not afraid to step on anyone’s toes after he surprised AJ by planting a kiss on her in the challenge, before admitting that he was interested in getting to know her.

AJ, who was initially smitten with Hugo, didn’t seem too opposed to the newcomers’ advances.

Their chat came shortly after the Love Islanders all came together for an eye-opening challenge called Snog, Marry, Pie.

During the challenge, Danny decided to snog AJ before pie-ing Lucinda, with who he is currently coupled up.

While he joked that he pied the bombshell to ‘keep her keen’ it in fact appeared to reaffirm her decision that they weren’t working.

Later, Lucinda and Danny sat for a chat and both appeared to agree that they are better off as friends.

Although it appears that Lucinda never reciprocated his advances, Danny later told AJ that he was the one to take the lead with cooling off their partnership.

He said: “I’ve basically ended it with Lucinda… Me and Lucinda basically ended up. We both feel like there’s a weight lifted off our shoulders and we’ve basically friend zoned so I’m literally chilling.”

He also suggested that he was eager to get to know AJ and that she had definitely caught his eye.

While it seems to be early days for AJ and Danny, Love Island viewers were quick to see through the conversation.

“The fact Danny said to Lucinda he kissed AJ to make her jealous then told AJ he kissed her cus he was interested in her nahh,” penned one Twitter viewer.

Another added: “When Danny goes over to AJ for a chat if he breaks Hugo’s heart I’ll be so mad. Finally a girl is saying she really likes hugo and he’s actually coupled up with this person. Then Danny comes Along.”

“So do we think Danny and AJ will be dumped? #LoveIsland,” asked another, as fans called for Danny to be voted out of the villa.

Although AJ shared a kiss with Danny in the challenge, she also enjoyed a smooch with Hugo – who she picked to couple up with yesterday.

AJ has made it clear that she has interests in the P.E teacher, even though he doesn’t seem as sure about her advances.
