He notoriously dumped Laura so he could run off and canoodle with resident flirt Megan.
But now that Love Island’s Wes is in a boyfriend/girlfriend situation with Megan, viewers think he’s getting too big for his boots.
To make matters worse, in recent chats with new Jack, Wes has been seen to encourage him to dump Laura, causing her a second bout of heartbreak on the show.
Nasty: Wes has been seen to encourage Jack to dump Laura, causing her a second bout of heartbreak on the show
He was seen in the bedroom, the morning after Jack broke up with Laura, telling him he did the right thing and that he felt a massive relief when he dumped her a few weeks before.
Offering up some pearls of wisdom, he said: ‘It’s good that you’ve woken up feeling the same way. That’s how it happened to me. I woke up and thought I don’t regret it at all.
‘It feels like a weights been lifted off your shoulders. The thought is a burden and it holds you back and weighs you down. You don’t want to upset her but you have to say it.’
This left viewers raging at Wes, taking to Twitter to tell him to ‘wind his neck in’ – especially given the fact that Megan chose another man over him at one point and has been with several other Islanders during her time on the show.

Another typed: ‘I like Wes but if he could stop giving advice starting with ‘when I dumped Laura’ and describing what a weight she was on him that would be fab!’
This wasn’t the first time Wes goaded Jack about breaking up with Laura. On Tuesday night’s episode, rather than offer his support, he flippantly remarked on the similarities between Jack dumping Laura and his own actions.

Appearing to show no regard for the air hostess’ feelings, Wes watched on with Megan.
During his chat with Laura, Jack revealed he couldn’t see a future with her. After bringing up their age difference in an earlier argument, Jack told her: ‘I just think I have to be honest with how I’m feeling and it’s so frustrating but I can’t control how I feel, as much as I really want it to work, I can’t see it working.
‘I think about if it can happen in the future out of the villa and I just can’t see it working.’
Stung, Laura admitted: ‘I don’t know what to say… I just don’t like to give up and I’m not trying to say you are but yeah maybe we’re not right for each other and it’s not the case.’
Accepting the break-up with grace, she added: You’ve just got to follow your heart and I wont stop you.’
