While he's not going to hear it, Love Island fans have been issuing advice to Ron Hall after spotting a 'hateful' move just before the latest dumping. The islanders were rocked by a surprise exit during the latest trip to the South African villa on Tuesday night (March 7).
Receiving a text, the ITV2 dating show's remaining contestants were told to gather round the firepit and quickly learnt that Will Young and Jessie Wynter, Casey O'Gorman and Rosie Seabrook, and Shaq Muhammad and Tanya Manhenga were at risk of being booted off of the show.
It was then semi-professional footballer Tom Clare who delivered the result and revealed that it was Casey and Rosie who had been voted off, just days after Casey's former love interest Claudia Fogarty was dumped from the villa.
But as Casey and Rosie said their goodbyes, Love Island fans noticed that the former didn't reciprocate the feelings of Ron and fellow islander Shaq - and some had some advice for the financial advisor. @ifevybz tweeted: "Ron & shaq told casey “i love you man” he didn’t even say it back. Bruh he hates all of em except tom & will #loveisland."
@missmina_a noted: "Ron saying love you to Casey and Casey not responding but then goes and hugs will and tells will he loves him .. Ron needs to stop trying to be nice to these boys!!!" @anita.s.b8 said: "The way the guys were on one side in the bedroom n Ron was on his own on the other side, that hurt! Kai please give Ron a big hug."
@Margjacquieline tweeted: "This s**t has been going on for a month now. Ron & Kai feeling & literally being left out. Very clear the group of boys get some sort of thrill by excluding people & making sure they know they’re not part of it. Ron & Kai are my finalists #loveisland."
It comes after cracks were seen appearing between the contestants ahead of the earlier talent show as Samie Elishi was spotted making a dig at Ron following a disagreement. Prior to the talent show, Samie and Ron sat down for a chat after she relayed his 'game-playing' comments to the other islanders.
"I’m not going to lie, I’m quite livid, I’m just not going to have it… I’m not having a whole gaff think that after one challenge I’m playing a game," Ron said, whilst Samie replied: "That’s the way it’s been perceived Ron and people were talking about it." Ron then commented: "The only way that’s being perceived is by either you or Tom going away and taking that and making out as if it was said that way."
Samie added: "It was weird though, it was a weird comment ... Ron, you said it, all I’m saying is that's what you said and it can be perceived as weird and everyone in here has an opinion on it." They were referring to when Ron told Samie, Tom, Sanam Harrinanan and Kai Fagan: "When I was a viewer… I thought, the ones who have their drama nice and early and then get comfy and treat it like a holiday, they’re the ones who are probably like, they just cruise. I can see why people probably thought, ‘Oh Lana [Jenkins] and Ron are just cruising through.’
"I’m not bothered by any of that. As I know I’m not, otherwise, I never would have made her my girlfriend, it means too much to me." Ron made the statement after confronting Shaq about his accusations he only made Lana his girlfriend because everyone likes her.
So as the talent show unfolded, Ron impressed by solving a Rubik's cube in less than 90 seconds. However, fans couldn't help but notice Samie's sly dig at Ron as she made a comment after his performance. "We know Ron is good at getting himself out of sticky situations, and that Rubik's cube was definitely one of them," she quipped.
