Love Island's Jess White has come to Ronnie Vint's defence after Elma Pazar compared his kissing skills to a "washing machine".
During last night's episode of Love Island: All Stars, Elma rated Ronnie's kiss a mediocre 5 out of 10, confessing to Kaz: "Ronnie really rated his kiss, and I felt like it was a washing machine!"
Jess – who initially had a connection with Ronnie on last year's series of Love Island before she coupled up with Sean and Ronnie pursued Harriett – has now addressed the comments by comparing her own experience with Ronnie.

"I mean, I can’t speak for all his conquests, but he wasn’t as bad as a washing machine!" she said (via The Sun), though she did also add: "Definitely not the best kiss I’ve had, though."
"I’d rate Ronnie's kissing as a 6 out of 10, but maybe I need to jog my memory?" Jess further teased. Could she be going into the villa as a bombshell?

Ron sparked a connection with Kaz Crossley after the pair had a heart-to-heart, and decided to steal her from Luca.
Revealing his decision at the firepit, Ron told the group that he'd based it on "the conversations we've had and how much more there is to explore".
Meanwhile, Grace said that each and every one of the boys had been so welcoming to her, but one "definitely stood out more than the others" – Luca.
Love Island airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
