Last night’s episode of Love Island, the nation’s most-watched reality TV show, was the most explosive of the series so far, but despite the shocking statements of island original Michael, Amber’s quick comment is the one sparking media attention.

When Amber returned to the main villa alone, only to be confronted by Michael standing aside Joanna, the Geordie tried to pass off her affections by savagely referring to his new girl as a “dead ting”.
For those of you who haven’t come across the phrase in your day to day conversation, we consulted Urban Dictionary for a reliable definition; “A person who is a boring c**t and is extremely dull”, or, “A girl or boy who does not look very good or in other words is clapped”.
Viewers are freaking out over Twitter for the vulgar outburst as Amber deepened the blow with another equally brutal statement, “I can physically say I’m better than her in every way.”
One fan tweeted, “Amber is proving Michael’s point completely with her dead ting comments”. Despite the defensive snarls, Amber said, “I’m not worried about me at all. I can handle myself.”
