We're less than a week into the new series of Love Island and feathers are well and truly starting to be ruffled. It comes as the entry of two new bombshells has turned some of the islanders' attention away from their original love interests.
Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown, a 25-year-old model and property developer, and 24-year-old money adviser David Salako made a shock entrance on the ITV2 dating show on Wednesday. David chose to take 22-year-old biomedical science student Tanya Manhenga, who is currently coupled up with 24-year-old airport security officer Shaq Muhammad, on a date.
Meanwhile, Zara opted to take out 25-year-old Ron Hall who admitted his head was 'swiveling' as the dancer and model 'ticked his boxes'. But during the latest episode on Thursday night (January 19), Lana decided to grab Ron for a chat where he admitted to the 25-year-old makeup artist and that while his head was with her he was going to get to know Zara more, describing it as a 'test'.

"I think I’ll have conversations with her and get to know her, my head is where it was before, it’s just another girl’s been thrown in the mix to have conversations with and see if it’s better than what we have," Ron, a financial advisor, said.
But viewers were quick to jump on social media to hit out at Ron, believing they have worked out his plan ahead of the first re-coupling and first villa dumping. @santosfiles tweeted: "Did ron basically just say if zara picks someone else at least he’ll still have lana #LoveIsland."
@Rz_NotJustWords suggested: "I think Ron knows Lana really likes him and he's stringing her along, just in case Zara says I like someone else, then he'll go back to Lana fully #LoveIsland." @thisislavinya added: "I don't like how Ron talks about Lana like a "back up" its giving red flag... #loveisland."
Meanwhile, others were distracted by Lana's wardrobe 'blunder' during her and Ron's chat. @millaroony asked: "Does lana have stickers on her shoes ?? #LoveIsland." @ruthmariam92 pleaded: "Can someone pls take the stickers off Lana’s shoes I beg x #LoveIsland." @KTYCXX echoed: "Lana please take the stickers off the bottom of your shoes #LoveIsland."
However, it's not just Lana suffering from the fashion faux pas. @laura_adam begged: "CAN SOMEONE TELL THE GIRLS TO TAKE THE STICKERS OFF THE BOTTOM OF THEIR SHOES PLS #LoveIsland." @hangelicapickls asked: "Why has not one girl in this villa taken the stickers off the bottom of their shoes #LoveIsland."
@BeccaHackworth posted: "Girls come on! First thing you do with a new pair of shoes is take the bloody sticker off! #LoveIsland." @charlottecrawf_ wrote: "How hard is it for these girls to take the damn stickers off the bottom of their shoes!! #LoveIsland." @DionneKealeigh added: "The stickers on the bottom of the shoes #LoveIsland."
