Anton Danyluk's downside may be his wandering eye syndrome, but he won over a legion of fans after helping to boost Yewande Biala’s confidence.
The Irish scientist, 23, admitted to feeling insecure because ‘all the boys go to Lucie [Donlan]’ over her during the coupling up. She was initially picked by Joe Garratt before Tommy Fury cam in and 'stole her'.
“When am I going to find love in here? I just feel like if someone does come in here, their first pick is probably just going be Lucie and Amber,” she said. “The first person who comes in here is going to go for first impressions.”
Anton, who is now single after Curtis Pritchard chose to couple up with Amy Hart, told Yewande not to worry about getting “pied,” telling her it’s nothing to do with who she is as a person.
“When I'm at home I'm usually the girls first pick. Whereas here, yeah I've taken a few pies. But I don't care,” he said.
“I know that just because I'm not someone's initial type doesn't mean that I'm a bad looking guy or a bad guy or anything. And you just need to feel the same.”
Yewande praised Anton, who made a move on Lucie earlier this week, for being there for her, telling the beach hut: “Obviously when you're in the villa its quite easy to let your insecurities come through.
“It's really nice having someone to relate to with. I really like having Anton in the villa.”
Viewers praised Anton for his “positivity” as some called for the two to pair up at the next recoupling.
One fan tweeted: “How nice was Anton, he’s gone up in my estimations!”
