'Didn't deserve to be in the finale': 'Love Island Games' viewers fume as Deb Chubb and Callum Hole bag 2nd runner-up spot
SUVA, FIJI: 'Love Island Games' Season 1 has a dramatic finale as Jack Fowler and Justine Ndiba win the Peacock show spin-off.
However, the other two couples, Johnny Middlebrooks and Aurelia Lamprecht, and, Callum Hole and Deb Chubb earned the runner-up spots.
Deb Chubb entered the Fiji villa just a few days ahead of the finale and she didn't got much time to know Callum.
Still, she alongside Callum made it to the top 3 finalists and the viewers were quite disappointed. A social media user user wrote, "Seeing deb’s face on my screen is really annoying me like how did she even get here why is deb here and cely not? is this a fever dream?"
Another person noted, "Imani said Callum and Deb played a strategic game? Am I missing something? Deb just got here like 2 episodes ago on a 20 episode season. Chileeeeee 😂 some petty folks in that jury."
Another critic noted, "Let's be real, deb did not deserve to be in that final at all." Another viewer suggested, "Idk call me a hater but I feel like Deb and Aurelia don’t really deserve to be in the finale."
Another Reddit user questioned, "What did Deb contribute to deserve to be a finalist? The one challenge that she was able to participate in she threw the game by refusing to play. Deb did not deserve to be a finalist. Callum 100% did."
