The group then found out that Joe and Julia-Ruth got matching tattoos with the word ‘why not?’.
On tonight’s show, Julia-Ruth received a frosty reception from the group, including Maeve who refused to greet her.
Things took a nasty turn when they sat down at the dinner table.
Maeve asked her if she would have wanted a relationship with Joe, but Julia-Ruth shrugged it off and said: “I’m not talking to you.”
It infuriated Maeve, who responded: “Don’t put your hands like that to me, man.”
An upset Julia-Ruth then stormed out of the room supported by pal Davide, before breaking down in tears.
But viewers weren’t buying it, with one writing: “All she is, is a walking victim complex Then starts crying about situations she creates She disrespected Maeve massively, added to her humiliation. You can’t cry when it’s the result of your own actions.”
A second posted: “And here comes the victim mentality from Julia-Ruth again.”
A third said: “Not Julia-Ruth acting like she got the short end of the stick. Poor Divarni, he’s the victim here.”
Another added: “Why’s Julia -Ruth crying for situations shes she’s put herself in? She’s the problem, not the victim!”
Before the reunion, Maeve said the last communication she had with Joe was to ask him if he had slept with Julia-Ruth, which he denied, but she insisted that he had been telling people that they had been intimate.
A furious Maeve told the camera: “Why are you lying to us, though?”
“I do think there is unfinished business with me and Julia-Ruth.
“Julia-Ruth did disrespect me and I am furious, you don’t mug me off like that and think I’m going to be okay.
“I dare her to start with us tonight.”
Meanwhile, Julia-Ruth confirmed again that she had slept with Joe while on holiday together.
In her VT, she said: “It was a big mess in itself. It’s definitely not nice that Maeve was hurt in the process but when Joe and I were talking, we were both single and out of the experiment.
“And with Steven, I just heard he was in full denial in texting me and wanting to go for drinks.
“I just feel like it’s an absolute joke. I’m the only one that seems to be owning and taking all the blows.
“All the men have just been trying to dodge a bullet and hide behind me.
“I feel like Steven and Joe should own their actions. I know it’s going to be like walking into the lions den today but I’ve done enough apologising and the men should take accountability.”
Maeve then told the group that Joe had denied sleeping with Julia-Ruth, leaving them shocked.
Maeve then revealed that Julia-Ruth had messaged her saying she “felt isolated”, but the Geordie claimed she had put herself in that situation.
“I’ve heard that Julia-Ruth and Joe got matching tattoos, I don’t know what they are or where they are” Maeve said.
