The Love Island Villa descended into chaos following the latest recoupling which sent shockwaves among the group. Although it was dubbed as ‘evil’ by viewers with some threatening to never watch an episode again.

Now in its second week, the 13th series has already seen plenty of drama. There’s already been multiple bombshells, an early departure and a fake dumping.

Tonight’s episode was predominantly set on the Terrace as it seemed to become a stand in for the Hideaway for several Islanders. Samraj took Mica up there for a kiss, followed by Sam’s tour for Victoria turning into a smooch then Kavan found himself having a ‘sensual’ moment with Jasmine.

The following night though. as the Islanders attempt to enjoy their evening in the Villa, Yasmin’s phone pings with a text. She is so taken aback by the alert that she manages to spill her red wine all over Aidan’s shirt, leaving a noticeable stain.

The message reads: “Could all Islanders gather around the Fire Pit immediately.” Once gathered, Kavan reads out another text:“Tonight there will be a recoupling where the boys will decide which girl they want to couple up with.”

It continues: “As Victoria and Namibia are the newest arrivals, they will decide who they want to couple up with first.”

Latest bombshells Namibia and Victoria take step forward, with Namibia picking Sam, saying he has been ‘really welcoming’. Next was Victoria who says it ‘wasn’t an easy decision’ and opts for Ope.

Finding himself in a brand new couple, Ope looks visibly uncomfortable. Viewers were left waiting to see what happens during the remainder of the recoupling and the Islander’s reactions, without even a preview clip to enjoy.

It doesn’t take long for those watching along at home to share their own feelings about the latest developments. Many slammed the episode’s cliffhanger with some sharing their concern that one star would be forced to leave the Villa in the next instalment.

One posted on social media saying: “Tonight’s cliffhanger is so evil.” Another added: “Are they mad? Where’s the rest of the recoupling?”

While a third commented: “These cliffhangers are actually a joke.” One person shared their concern that Angelista was left at risk of the first actual dumping, as they said: “Thats actually so unfair they shouldn’t dump Angelista cause its genuinely out of her control.”

Someone else agreed and vowed: “If Angelista is going home I’ll never turn this show on ever again.”

Love Island continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
