Amazingly, the crook was caught by onlookers who passed him on to the police and Eve was reunited with her phone.
Jess revealed what had happened, telling their fans: “Last night walking back from the gym alone Eve got mugged and they stole her phone. Been in Apple for ages today trying to get back nto her accounts.
“Just as she was about to buy a new one, police rang saying they’ve found it.
“Guys who watched it happen chased this guy down and brought him to the police. So thankful for them.”
The terrifying situation comes just a day after another Love Island star – Zara McDermott was left shaken after she was nearly carjacked by four balaclava-clad men in West London.
Zara told fans how she was approached and intimated by a group of yobs following a shopping trip to Westfields.
She shared: “Within a few seconds of putting my phone down, I dropped my car key on the floor so I bent down to pick it up and when I looked up there were four guys surrounding my car. Most of which were wearing balaclavas.
“It all happened so quick but the guy on the passenger side, he had a hood up and a scarf, and was trying to open the door.
“Then I looked back and someone was tapping on my window trying to get my attention and stop me from moving.”
