Laura Whitmore turns up for a shock dumping tonight (Picture: Rex)
Love Island is set to drop a clanger tonight as two contestants face being dumped from the villa.
In scenes due to air this evening, presenter Laura Whitmore makes a surprise appearance only two days after Connagh Howard was eliminated from the winter series.
Shockwaves are sent through the South African escape as the islanders react, wondering what news she is going to deliver, and they gather around the infamous fire pit.
As they wait anxiously, Laura tells them: ‘Islanders, I guess you’re all wondering why I’m here…
‘I’ve got some very important news for you all. The public have been voting for their favourite couple. The couple with the fewest votes risk being dumped.’

Which couple will be sent packing? Could it be the end of the road for Leanne Amaning and Mike Boateng? Or perhaps it’s Siânnise Fudge and Nas Majeed’s time to go?
Connagh became the second contestant to be dumped from the villa in scenes that aired on Friday, after Rebecca opted to choose Luke M – despite becoming close to Connagh and even sharing a cheeky snog with him last week.
Speaking about his exit, he said: ‘I wasn’t confident [going in the re-coupling] because Rebecca’s quite hard to read.
‘She doesn’t give too much away ‘Even before the two new lads came in I was trying to see where her head was at, who she was interested in and she didn’t say too much…’ He also confessed: ‘I had doubts in my mind.’
Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2.

Siânnise isn’t happy at what happened at the last recoupling (Picture: ITV)
Siânnise Fudge is still seething after the last Love Island recoupling as Rebecca Gormley got together with new bombshell Luke T, who Siânnise was very much interested in herself.
Tensions boil over in the latest episode as Siânnise confronts Rebecca over her decision at the recoupling in dramatic scenes to air tonight.
She takes the islander to one side for a chat about what went down at the fire pit and accuses Rebecca of ‘dealing with it the wrong way’.
Siânnise confesses she was ‘shocked’ by Rebecca choosing Luke T and suggested she’d broken the ‘girl code’. But Rebecca doesn’t back down and reminds her that she’s here to find love for herself.
‘If that was me, I would have made my intentions clear and then no one would have got upset,’ Siânnise explains.
‘I’m a very girls’ girl, so that was a bit of a shock to me. [It’s happened] twice now.
‘Connagh, obviously I was trying to get to know him. I felt you two had a better connection, so I left that alone and let you get on with it. And now obviously Luke T’s come in and I felt like I had a connection with him and it’s happened again… I would have preferred it if you’d been a bit upfront.’

Rebecca tells her: ‘I know you’re saying girl code, I didn’t go out of my way to hurt anyone. You weren’t coupled up with him and I took him off you, you just had a date with him.
‘I know you want to find someone Siânnise. But we all want to find someone. I’ve got to do what I’ve got to do.’
Siânnise doesn’t want to carry on the chat and suggests she will avoid Rebecca for the rest of their stay in the villa, telling her: ‘I’m going to nip this in the bud now…. You enjoy your time.’

As the girls chat it seems like they can’t get past what’s happened, as Siânnise continues to accuse Rebecca of going behind her back. Will they be able to move on?

Friday’s recoupling saw the 20-year-old twin chose to be matched up with Luke, and this evening’s episode sees the pair sit down and talk about their future.
‘I think we’ve got a good thing going,’ Luke tells her.
Tensions boil over and Siânnise confronts Rebecca over her decision at the recoupling by taking her to one side for a chat.

The Love Island star was keen to brag about his ‘fivesome’ (Picture: ITV2)
Love Island lothario Connor Durman reportedly indulged in a sex session with four women before going on the show to find love.
According to a source from The Sun, the Brighton-bred Islander invited a group of women back to his hotel room after befriending them during a bar crawl.
‘One night out ended in a sex session with four women. He bought everyone drinks then persuaded them to get naked,’ the source said.
‘He got the girls to down shots from his naked torso after lying on a kitchen top. He stripped naked in the hope everyone would just join in.’
And apparently, Connor wasn’t one to keep this kind of behaviour quiet either.

Connor’s big night reportedly happened six months ago during a night out in Brighton (Picture: ITV)‘He was telling everyone of his “fivesome” for weeks,’ they added. ‘He has no shame and didn’t mind photos being taken so he could show off about it later.’
The tryst happened around six months ago in the Hilton Brighton Metropole hotel.
This comes after Connor announced on the show that he’d slept with over 100 girls. However, it remains to be seen how successful he will be on the show.

Blasting Connor’s antics as ‘controlling’ she insisted: ‘In between these two incidents, they have been displaying the most flirting, and building proper relationship signals. But that makes it even worse because he has no right to behave like this.
‘He’s being absolutely awful in doing that. They’re not even a couple, and if he’s being like that now… That will only get worse, that behaviour. It worries me because she looks genuinely worried as though she’s done the wrong thing.’
Metro.co.uk has reached out to Connor’s representatives for comment.

The 27-year-old model was the victim of a shock elimination during Friday night’s show, after 21-year-old Rebecca paired up with new boy Luke T just days after sharing a cheeky snog with Connagh.
But while Siannise Fudge was left fuming at the results of the recoupling, ‘Connagh with a G’ (as he’s been affectionately named) admitted that he was still open to rekindling things with Rebecca.
‘If I’m still single and if she does have a change of heart in the future and wanted to try again, I wouldn’t completely close it off,’ he told ITV.
‘I wasn’t confident [going in the re-coupling] because Rebecca’s quite hard to read,’ he admitted to ITV. ‘She doesn’t give too much away.

Jack, who won the reality show in 2018 with then-girlfriend Dani Dyer, said on his Instagram: ‘I want to thank my family and friends for your continued support, also to my little girl’s mother, who has been totally AMAZING throughout.’
He added: ‘I am now a proud dad to a healthy baby girl Blossom Fincham born 8lb 2oz on 24th January 2020.’
The fact that Jack was about to become a father was kept very quiet, with not even his ex Dani knowing that baby Blossom was on the way.
With the former Islander saying that he and Blossom’s mother are now ‘great friends’ and nothing more, our interest in Jack’s relationship history has been well and truly piqued…
Who has Love Island’s Jack Fincham dated?
Before his time on Love Island Jack was with Ellie Jones from 2016 until 2018.
She ended up being sent into the Love Island villa as a surprise bombshell, but Jack and Dani weathered that storm and went on to win the series.
Barring his stint on Celebs Go Dating last August, Jack has kept his love life pretty private since leaving the villa.

Of course, prior to all this drama and speculation, Jack rose to fame as the co-winner of Love Island 2018 with his then-girlfriend Dani Dyer.
The pair made it nine more months after the season ended, but called time on their relationship in April 2019.
After some speculation, Jack confirmed the split by posting to Instagram that he and Dani had ‘really tried to make it work.’
At the time Jack wrote: ‘We will always care a lot for each other and have love for each other and I mean that from the bottom of my heart and I wish her nothing but happiness.
‘We have some amazing memories together and have been through a lot but something things aren’t meant to be and we really did try to make it work but it unfortunately didn’t and that is life.’
The two have never revealed exactly what caused the split, but Jack would later admit that he and Dani ‘rushed it’ and if they’d been on Love Island forever ‘it would have been alright.’
Dani opened up on Sunday Brunch about the split back in April, saying that life in the spotlight is ‘tough’ but she ‘will always be friends’ with Jack.
She has also hit out against claims their love was a ‘showmance.’ In an interview promoting her show True Love or True Lies, she said of her relationship with Jack: ‘It was beautiful. We had a great summer. It just didn’t work out. People are in love and sometimes it doesn’t work out.’

Jack meanwhile went on to father Blossom with healthcare compliance officer Casey Ranger, 29, who gave birth to on Friday.
In his initial announcement of the news, Jack said of his baby mamma: ‘Although we are not together we are great friends as we have been for many years and our priority is co-parenting our beautiful baby girl. Both mum and baby are doing great.’
He since confirmed her identity by saying: ‘Myself and Casey got together when we were both single. It was a whirlwind romance and shortly after had the amazing news that she was expecting which we were both over the moon about.

Casey Ranger and Jack welcomed Blossom on Friday
‘It didn’t work out romantically for us, however as I’ve said previously we are still great friends and have been for around 10 years,’ he told The Sun.
He added: ‘Casey has been amazing throughout this whole process and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to co-parent our beautiful daughter Blossom with.’
Dani may have been as surprised as the rest of us by the news that Jack became a dad, but she sent her blessing to the new parents, saying on BBC Radio 2: ‘All it is, everyone loves a baby and I wish them all the best. Congratulations. There you go!’
Connor and Sophie are now both vulnerable to be dumped from the island (Picture: ITV)
Love Island audiences and contestants alike were both treated to a Sunday night shocker – with a cliffhanger leaving Sophie Piper and Connor Durman’s fate in the balance.
Just to add to the drama between Siânnise and Rebecca and the first-date sparks between Shaughna and Callum, Laura Whitmore rocked up in the final few minutes of the show to drop a bombshell, in true Love Island style.
It was revealed to the Islanders that the public have been voting for their favourite couple. Sophie Piper and Connor Durman, the couple with the least votes, are officially not safe.
But only one person out of the couple will be the Islanders will be going home – and the Islanders will now have to decide who it will be.

All members of the Islander community looked absolutely gutted at this revelation, not just Sophie and Connor but their friends and fellow contestants – the ones that will now decide their fate on the show.
Fans have predicted who the Islanders will save, as well as which member of the couple is more likely to be loyal to the other.
One posted ‘Sophie will drop Connor in a heartbeat’, and another posting ‘I reckon if [the islanders] vote to save Connor he would leave with Sophie. But I don’t think she would do the same with him.’
This comes after a relatively quiet episode for the couple, following lots of conflict on Friday night’s episode, leaving fans shocked at how ‘toxic’ their relationship has become.
Blasting Connor’s antics as ‘controlling’ she insisted: ‘In between these two incidents, they have been displaying the most flirting, and building proper relationship signals. But that makes it even worse because he has no right to behave like this.
‘He’s being absolutely awful in doing that. They’re not even a couple, and if he’s being like that now… That will only get worse, that behaviour. It worries me because she looks genuinely worried as though she’s done the wrong thing.’

Fans have lost it at Luke T’s miscalculation about Siannese’s middle name, Adele (Picture: REX)
Tonight (January 26)’s episode of Love Island definitely had its share of WTF moments: Siannese and Rebecca’s explosive fight by the fire pit, not to mention the shock reveal that either Sophie or Connor will be voted off the Island by their own fellow contestants.
But a comment that definitely has had audiences screaming from their sofas is Luke T’s seemingly-innocent but ultimately misguided question for Siannese about her middle name.
The duo shared a flirty conversation about each other’s surnames and middle names. When Siannese told Luke that her middle name was Adele, Luke’s immediate reaction was to ask: ‘Is your mum a fan of Adele?’
Now we can see why his brain initially flipped to Adele – she is one of the most famous musicians and women in the world – but, obviously, something doesn’t add up here, and fans took to Twitter to point it out.

Siannese and Luke T shared a flirty poolside chat (Picture: REX)
Because, after all, Adele got famous for her debut album 19 back in 2008 – during which time Sophie would have been roughly nine years old. So we would assume that her mum (regardless of whether she is an Adele fan) named Siannese WAY before Adele was a huge mega star. Obviously.
One concerned fan posed the question: ‘Does… does Luke T think Siannise is 12 years old?’, while another posted ‘Luke T is thick as pig s**t. He actually thought Siannise was named after Adele who’s about 5 years older than her?’
Of course, that’s not the only drama that kicked off in Luke T’s name tonight. Both Siannese and Rebecca (who is currently coupled up with Luke T) let their frustration with each other known at an explosive showdown by the fire pit.
Unimpressed at Rebecca’s failure to be clear about her intentions with Luke T, Siannese calls her out on it. The girls fail to come to an agreement over who was in the wrong, with Rebecca throwing a personal blow at Siannese by saying: ‘it’s not my fault you haven’t clicked with anyone’.
Siannese is left upset at this comment, and Luke T comforts her while she sheds a few tears.
Will the girls work it out? Will Luke T shift his affections?

Who’s about to be dumped from the island? (Picture: ITV)
What a drama-filled treat Love Island had for fans on Sunday night’s (January 26) episode! After Rebecca was branded a ‘snake’ by fans for coupling up with Luke T, Siannese made her anger known too…
But that wasn’t even the juiciest twist of the night. Not by a long shot. Presenter Laura Whitmore turned up towards the end of the show to reveal the latest dramatic obstacle our Islanders must clear.
One member of the least popular couple (according to the public vote) must now be axed from the island by none other than the Islanders themselves. Oof.
Friendships and relationships will be tested, and we cannot wait. Here’s everything you missed if you didn’t catch last night’s episode.

Callum and Shaughna go on their first date
After receiving that all-important text, Callum and Shaughna escaped the villa for a very relaxed date in a cute beach cove.
A few sea smooches later, Shaughna admits that this is the best first date that she’s ever been on, and the couple get into the deep stuff – mostly the fact that Callum has never had a girlfriend, and what this would mean for them.
When Shaughna asked Callum how he knew things were going well between them, if he had nothing to compare it to, he replied smoothly: ‘I’m enjoying it at the minute. You are funny. You’re easy going, you’re easy to talk to, it’s just easy. You’re pretty as well, how can I forget? This might be the first of many dates…’
There was brief, cheeky talk of whether Shaughna thought Callum was the one, before they went on to discuss their families. Callum told Shaughna: ‘You’ll get to meet them one day hopefully.’ N’awww.

Unimpressed at newcomer Rebecca’s failure to be clear about her intentions with Luke T before coupling up with him, Siannese decides to call her out on it.
The initial chat doesn’t really come to any form of solution, so later on the girls have an explosive argument by the fire pit with Sianesse accusing Rebecca ofnot being a ‘girl’s girl’ because she wasn’t open with who she wanted to be with.
Rebecca threw a personal blow back at Siannese by saying: ‘it’s not my fault you haven’t clicked with anyone’.
Siannese is left upset at this comment, and Luke T comforts her while she sheds a few tears.

‘I think we’ve got a good thing going,’ Luke tells her.
And, yes, they share a tender smooch. N’awwww.
Jess then talks about the kiss with the Islander gals (duh!) and seems happy with the way things are going. If we know the Love Island drama (and the show’s producers), that contentment may not last for long. Watch this space!

Laura dropped a massive bombshell (Picture: ITV)
Decision Time
Connor and Sophie were the first victims of Laura Whitmore’s first surprise arrival into the villa – announcing they were voted the least fave couple by the public.
However, all is not lost for them… with their fates left in the hands of their fellow islanders.
One gets to stay – and it’s up to the others to decide who.
With the show leaving us on a cliffhanger, which one isn’t going to make it another day in the villa and be sent packing?
All’s fair in Love Island and war – and Sianisse Fudge and Rebecca Gormley have definitely laid out this year’s first rivalry after a vicious spat over new boy, Luke Trotman.
Sianisse was left livid after the latest recoupling when, instead of choosing Connaugh, Rebecca opted to get to know Luke instead, stealing him from under her just after she had finally found someone she clicked with.
To make things even worse, it wasn’t as if it was the first time Rebecca had gone after Sianisse’s man – seeing as she was interested in Connaugh before Rebecca snogged him.
But now, with Connaugh given the boot from the island as a result of it all, Sianisse has had enough.
So when Rebecca pulled her for a chat to clear the air, things got heated pretty quickly.
As the entire villa watched on in the least subtle way possible, Rebecca declared: ‘I don’t need to think about if I’m going to hurt someone else, I need to do what’s best for me.
‘I’ve apologised so I’m not going to keep going through it.’

‘I don’t want to carry this one because it’s boring me to death now,’ Sianisse responded. ‘But what I’m saying is, I don’t know why it’s taken you so long to pull me for a chat tonight.’
‘All I wanted you to understand was why I was p***ed off,’ she said.
‘As times gone on I’ve learned that you’re not a girl’s girl, I’m completely different to you, and that’s fine,’ Sianisse continued.

‘You’ve been in here two weeks, you’ve had many opportunities but you’ve not clicked with no one,’ Rebecca responded. ‘That’s not my fault.’
Oooooh drama drama drama.
As a result of the clash, viewers are now picking sides – and it’s a pretty 50/50 split.
as much as i dont really like sianesse, there was absolutely no need for rebecca to go in for her like that!! absolutely disgusting behaviour, defo not a girls girl😤 #LoveIsland
Sooooo Sianesse thinks it’s Rebeccas responsibility to tell her who she’s picking, but not her responsibility to tell Rebecca who she’s picking?🤔 backing Rebecca all the way, Sianesse is acting so entitled (or that’s how the edit’s portraying her) #LoveIsland
While that’s going on, things were given a major shake up at the end of tonight’s episode when Laura Whitmore made a surprise visit to the villa.
Announcing that the public had voted for their least favourite couple, Sophie Piper and Connor Dudman were told they were now vulnerable.
However, one of them can stay – and it’s up to the rest of the villa to figure out who.
With faces like thunder, Sophie and Connor – who have been the most volatile couple in the villa so far – seemed less than happy with the new arrangement.
Who will the stars pick? And even more than that, will these two new ‘love birds’ decide to stay in the villa, or split so one can continue on their quest for love?
Love Island continues weeknights at 9pm on ITV2.

Love Island’s Rebecca Gormley wore her bikini on her head (Picture: ITV)
Love Island’s Rebecca Gormley left viewers baffled after she opted to wear her bikini as a headband during last night’s episode.
The 21-year-old model from Newcastle was seen sporting what looked like part of a two-piece swimsuit on her head as she lounged by the pool and debriefed in the Beach Hut.
Even voiceover Iain Stirling poked fun at Rebecca’s outfit choice and jokingly said: ‘That’s what I like about Rebecca. She wears her heart on her sleeve and her bikini bottoms on her head.’
It didn’t take audiences long to notice the contestant’s peculiar fashion statement, and they flocked to Twitter confused.
‘Whys Rebecca got a bikini top round her head?’ asked one dumbfounded viewer.
Echoing a similar sentiment, another added: ‘Has Rebecca got a bra on her head?’

The reality star’s latest post is a sweet photo of Blossom grabbing onto his hand and honestly, our hearts are bursting (and we’re feeling a little broody now too).
Captioning the snap, Jack wrote: ‘Blossom’s little hand. She held my thumb for ages, good night from this little beauty.’
Jack announced that he’d become a father on Instagram with a happy photo of himself gazing at his daughter, alongside a statement that read: ‘I’m normally a very open book and share most of my life on my social media.
‘This blessing I chose not to. I’m just a normal geeza, who went on a tv show, which throws you straight into the public eye…which I will forever be grateful for.
‘However, I knew for myself I needed personal time and to keep this part of my life private to prepare for this new responsibility and part of me that will change my life forever.
‘This is undoubtedly the best thing that has ever happened to me and it’s true what they say, the instant feeling of love and connection you have with your child is a feeling like no other.’

Although we are not together we are great friends as we have been for many years and our priority is co-parenting our beautiful baby girl. Both mum and baby are doing great.
‘I am now a proud dad to a healthy baby girl Blossom Fincham born 8lb 2oz on 24th January 2020.’
Jack found fame after winning dating show Love Island in 2018 with then-girlfriend Dani Dyer.
Chatting to Rylan Clark-Neal on his BBC Radio 2 show, Dani said she ‘100%’ wanted to send her congratulations to the pair.
‘Everyone loves a baby!’ the 23-year-old added.
Asked if she knew anything, Dani said: ‘No of course not! When everyone else found out, I found out.
‘All it is, everyone loves a baby and I wish them all the best. Congratulations. There you go!’

Laura Whitmore’s family has thrown a spanner in the works by revealing they’re convinced she’s underneath the Octopus costume on The Masked Singer.
The Love Island host shared screenshots of a group WhatsApp conversation that showed her loved ones discussing how the clues matched up to the presenter and that the unidentified celeb sounds just like her.
Addressing the clues, one person wrote in the group: ‘Looking well Laura. The clues even seem like u on this one.’
‘Yes sounds like Laura,’ another added.
Not confirming or denying she’s Octopus, Laura captioned the post: ‘Family chat is strong!’

Are they onto something? (Picture: Instagram)
Octopus made a big impact on their first appearance with their rendition of the Little Mermaid song Part Of Your World.
They described themselves as ‘bubbly, happy and always on the go’ as well as being ‘leggy’ and having some connection with the catwalk – as well as admitting to loving weight-training following their first performance.

However, the plot thickened, even more, when Octopus performed again – with clues including walking through a jungle and mentioning she has the ‘fish guts’ to sing on stage.
Laura presented I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! NOW! – also known as Extra Camp – for five series.
Octopus also made a reference to the ‘Dales’, which had some fans thinking former Emmerdale star Gemma Atkinson is behind the mask.
Ashley Roberts, Kerry Ellis, Emily Symon, Lucy Pargeter, and Katherine Jenkins are all popular guesses, although mostly we don’t have a clue.
Could it be Laura under the mask?
The Masked Singer continues on Saturday at 7pm on ITV and Love Island airs tonight at 9pm on ITV2.

It was the second time Rebecca crossed Siannise, having previously swooped up Connagh – only to change her mind at the recoupling stage.

But the drama didn’t stop there after host Laura Whitmore rocked up in the final few minutes of the episodes to tell the Islanders the public have been voting for their favourite couple.
She confirmed Sophie and Connor had received the fewest votes and were therefore officially not safe, but their fellow housemates will decide their fate.
Some fans at home have been quick to brand Sophie and Connor’s relationship toxic but is it just a clash of personalities or is there one party to blame? And what do the Islanders think?
Wallace and Demi are here to turn heads (Picture: ITV)
Love Island is going to drop two new bombshells into the villa in upcoming scenes to shake things up after a shock dumping.
With one islander set to be given their marching orders – and the rest of the couples seeming a little bit too comfortable – it’s time to make things interesting.
Maybe Siannise Fudge will find that connection she’s been looking for?
In tonight’s episode a new boy and a new girl arrive to turn heads and they have their sights set on some of the contestants.
The episode will see Nas get text following the day’s challenge, and he reveals the twist to the others.
The message reads: ‘Islanders, tonight one new girl and one new boy will be entering the villa.
‘Each new arrival has chosen one Islander to prepare their starter, one to prepare their main course and one to prepare their dessert #dishydates #eatingisnotcheating #haveyourcakeandeatit.’
Who will be picked to cook up a storm? Let’s meet the bombshells.
Demi Jones

Age: 21
Job: Style advisor at a boutique
Demi describes herself as ‘bubbly reliable and friendly’ and thinks her looks will get the boys wanting to couple up. But there’s more to her than meets the eye.
She explained: ‘I think when boys see me they go for my looks and don’t want to get to know me on a deeper level. Whereas I like to think I’ve got a bit of personality to go with it – I’m bubbly and fun.’

And islander Nas might be in luck, as Demi has taken a shine to him and new boy Finn, and she is not afraid to go for what she wants.
‘I’m not going to beat around the bush. If I’m coupled up with someone I’m not happy with and if there’s someone I vibe with, I will have to say something, I’ll have to get my feelings across,’ Demi said.
‘If I started falling for someone that a girl had feelings for or had a thing with in the past, I’d have to be honest and not be all sly about it.’
Wallace Wilson

Will Wallace get anyone’s heart race? (Picture: ITV)
Age: 24
Job: Personal trainer
‘Funny and energetic’ Wallace thinks he his positive mentality and competitiveness make him boyfriend material.
With his eye on Paige, Siannise and Sophie, one of those three might be asked to step up and get to his heart through his stomach with some home cooking.
Like Demi, Wallace likes to be up front if he likes someone, and isn’t too bothered about anyone getting their feelings hurt.

‘I think stepping on toes is life isn’t it, it’s just what happens, you’ve got to look after number one’, he said.
Wallace is not just a pretty face though, as he feels he is a deep thinker, sometimes to a fault as he added: ‘I can over analyse things sometimes when it comes to love’. How is he going to fare in the famously intense environment of the villa?
Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2.

Last night’s nail-biter saw Laura Whitmore rack up her air miles and enter the villa to break it to the line-up that one of them would be leaving Love Island for good after a couple received the fewest votes from the public.
Sophie and Connor was confirmed to be the least popular couple with audiences, despite having what’s been perceived to be the strongest relationship by the fellow islanders.

Naturally, the shocker will have huge repercussions for the rest of the cast.
Tensions are mounting as Mike tells Sophie and Connor: ‘We’ve come to a vote…’
Although, the exit is soon put aside as two new bombshells come crashing in as a welcomed distraction.

Wallace Wilson, 24, from Inverness has already got his sights set on Siânnise Fudge and Sophie Piper – although he’s also got a ‘wandering eye’…
And he’s joined by Demi Jones, 21, a style advisor whose dream career is to be a museum curator in Rome. If anyone else in the villa can spell curator or knows where Rome is we’ll be shooketh.

‘I’m not wasting any more time,’ she confesses. ‘I’m not. If I’m not feeling something, I’m not feeling something.’
Continuing her train of thought In the Beach Hut she vents: ‘Tonight has really kicked me up the bum and shown me that you can go home at any minute. I think it’s really put a lot of things in perspective.’
Will she come clean to Mike and finally call things a day, or will she change her mind? Only time will tell…

How Sophie and Connor split gives Siânnise Fudge all the power in Love Island (Picture: Rex)
Well, how about that?! Love Island’s biggest headache of a couple Sophie Piper and Connor Durman have split thanks to the powers that be and, inevitably, Laura Whitmore’s cataclysmic bombshell will have huge repercussions for the rest of the villa: namely for Siânnise Fudge.
Tonight, we’ll discover if Sophie or Connor have been dumped from the villa or if they’ll both leave together (as if). But more importantly, the first public vote of the series will have major implications going forward. Metro.co.uk’s body language expert Judi James explains why, after a humongous row with Rebecca Gormley, the power is in Siânnise’s hands.
She told us: ‘Last night’s “least popular couple” twist will have been like a psychological depth charge in the villa. Forget all the fluffy stuff about “finding love”, we all know the real motivation for the guys in there, behind all the romantic plotlines, is fame and prize money or ( hopefully for them ) both.
‘Of course we’ll all be glued to our screens to see whether the other contestants chose to make Sophie or Connor take the long walk out of paradise (some of us might still be sitting there waiting for tonight’s show) but it’s the establishment of a new hierarchy and pecking order back in the villa that will lead to some genuinely fascinating plots over the next few weeks:
‘Siânnise (The Fudge): The girl had been hopping mad and borderline paranoid about being the girl none of the guys chose to couple with so far. This led to the mammoth fight with Rebecca as she battled to retain any place in the hierarchy but now she’s got the message that she’s popular without even being in a proper couple her confidence should be off the scale.

The Love Island line-up has a tough decision ahead (Picture: ITV2)
‘Hopefully, Naz (Possibly the true vote-winner of the duo) will also get the boost he needed but I’m pretty sure the Fudge will think it’s all down to her. This will give her power over Rebecca, who sat the popularity contest out.
‘Despite all the “established” couples being rewarded though, these types of popularity contests can also cause some counter-intuitive and very dramatic splits. Often the guys will spend some time feeling secure in the approval of the public but that can cause panic and feelings of claustrophobia as they realise they’re going to have to pretend love with their current partners for the rest of the series and possibly beyond.
‘There’s only so many bits of toast you can shape into a heart and we might see some shocking and surprising muggings off as they tell themselves the popularity votes were primarily for them alone and try to make a dash for freedom in the arms of another woman.’

Claiming the comparison was racist in its nature, the board has ruled it was intended as a compliment and so no further action will be taken.
Speaking on the 63 complaints the regulation board received, an Ofcom spokesperson has decided not to pursue the matter further.
‘We considered complaints from viewers who objected to a remark made by one of the contestants,’ they said.
‘In our view, the comment was not used in a derogatory manner, and was likely to be intended as a compliment.

The news comes as they also threw out the complaints surrounding Ollie Williams’ involvement in programme, following the revelation that he had been game-hunting.
‘We don’t determine how contestants are chosen, or who takes part in programmes,’ Ofcom said in a separate statement. ‘These are editorial matters for ITV.’

Photos of him posing over dead animals holding guns had him declared a trophy hunter – something he later denied, claiming it was ‘conservation work’.
Ollie ended up leaving the series of his own accord after three days, claiming he missed his ex-girlfriend, who he’s now reunited with.

Tonight’s Love Island challenge is not for those with a weak constitution, or those who have an aversion to boiled eggs.
The Islanders were dragged off their bean bags/day beds to take part in Getting Trollied, in which the couples were tasked with passing various unsexy food stuffs between their mouths before emptying it into the correct container.
In a clip from tonight’s show, the boys appeared to kick off proceedings by grabbing the food before running along in their trollies to their partner and essentially regurgitating whatever it was they had picked up.
Paige Turley cried and retched as Finn Tapp passed her a boiled egg, and then a raw onion, followed by a lump of blue cheese, after the pair had previously squabbled about who should hold the food in their mouths the longest.

Shaughna Phillips and Callum Jones were seen passing beetroot to one another, while viewers were treated to a close-up of Jess Gale spitting out baked beans in a plastic tub that Luke M had lovingly passed her.
We can’t wait to see the whole task in all it’s gory glory later.
Just as the Islanders appeared to be recovering from the grim challenge, Nas Majeed received a text which announced the arrival of two new bombshells – 21-year-old Demi Jones and 24-year-old Wallace Wilson.

‘Each new arrival has chosen one Islander to prepare their starter, one to prepare their main course, and one to prepare dessert #dishydates #eatingisnotcheating #haveyourcakeandeatit,’ Nas informed his fellow Islanders.
Will Siannise Fudge finally hit it off with an islander? Nas might be in luck too, as style adviser Demi says she has the hots for the 23-year-old builder, as well as 20-year-old Finn.
The Islanders have now been tasked with picking either Sophie or Connor to save. Brutal.
