After watching the latest episode of 'Love Island' fans were beyond amused with the ironic situation that Moira Tumas found herself in. The 28-year-old found herself instantly drawn to James McCool. Unfortunately, the couple's whirlwind romance lasted for less than a week, after Moira insisted that they take things slow, while James seemed hesitant about it. This was creating a wedge between the couple as Moira began feeling pressured by James.

But when new islander, Calvin Cobb entered the villa and showed interest in Moira, she quickly jumped ship. She dumped James at the first opportunity and happily moved on to Calvin. Just as Moira was beginning to feel that her fairytale romance was within the grasp, Calvin pulled the brakes on their relationship by explicitly telling Moira that he wasn't into PDA and wanted to take things slowly between them.

This left Moira feeling uneasy. In a conversation with one of the girls, Moira expressed how she was completely smitten by Calvin but was annoyed with him because he wants to take things slow. While Moira is worrying about the pace of their relationship, Calvin wants to feel the 'fireworks' in his relationship, but he's only feeling 'sparks' from Moira. When fans saw how things turned out between Moira and Calvin, they were beyond amused and pointed out to Moira how she did the exact same thing with James.

A fan tweeted, "I’m dying that Moira is mad that Calvin wants to “take it slow” but missing the irony that she said that shit to James a week ago. #LoveIslandUSA."



 

Another fan wrote, "First Moira wanted to take it slow, now she wants to go faster... MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND #LoveIslandUSA."



 

"Moira: I want to go slow with James Also Moira: I’m kind of annoyed that Calvin wants to take it slow #lolokay #LoveIslandUSA," commented a fan.



 

"The way Moira is upset about how slow things are going when she dropped James for going too fast el oh el #LoveIslandUSA," expressed a fan.



 

"I really don’t think Moira knows what she wants. Like one second James is too fast and the next Calvin is too slow #LoveIslandUSA," shared a fan.



 

'Love Island' Season 2 airs from Monday- Saturday at 9/8c only on CBS.
