It's been an incredibly dramatic week in the Love Island villa. There's been secret kisses, fallouts, new bombshells, and a surprise recoupling that saw Zara Lackenby-Brown dumped from the ITV2 dating show.
This week the arrival of 22-year-old bombshell Samie Elishi really shook the villa up, with Lana Jenkins and Ron Hall falling out after he admitted Samie was his type and he wanted to get to know her. Kai Fagan also upset Tanyel Raven after pulling Samie for a chat in front of her which she felt was disrespectful.
The most explosive falling out however was between Olivia Hawkins and Tom Clare after she found out he'd been stealing secret kisses with Ellie Spencer on the terrace despite telling her he was interested in rekindling their romance. So as the contestants were asked to stand around the fire pit, viewers new they were in for an explosive recoupling.

With so many fallings out, and only two solid couples in Will Farmer and Jessie Wynters and Shaw Muhammad and Tanya Mahenga, this is how the most recent recoupling went down.
Who are the new couples?
Will & Jessie
Will was the first to go and chose to couple up with Jessie, a decision nobody was second-guessing. Standing up he told the line-up of girls: "Since the moment she walked into the villa we've been stuck together like glue, the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, she's kind and she makes me a better person."
Aaron & Lana
Aaron was up next and decided to stick with Lana, telling the group he felt like "she deserved more" than she was getting. He said in his speech: "I've decided to couple up with this girl because I believe she deserves to be in here and to open herself up more whether that is to be with anyone in here now or anyone to come.
"I think she deserves more than what she's got and she probably doesn't know that right now."
Spencer & Olivia
New bombshell Spencer also decided to stick in his original couple and chose Olivia. He said: "Over the last few days she's really put in the work to get to know me, she's stunning and I'd like to see where things go in the future."
Shaq & Tanya
Shaq chose to couple up with Tanya. The couple have been going from strength to strength and were the first to share "I love yous" in the villa during the episode that aired on Wednesday, February 1.
Standing up, Shaq poted his heart out and said: "Seeing her smile every day genuinely makes me smile, she's one of the kindest most beautiful women I've met in my entire life. I honestly feel like the future we could have together could be something special and I just want to carry on exploring that further.
"Everyone in the villa knows how much of a nice person that she is, she's always there for everyone, she honestly makes my heart skip a beat."
Kai & Samie
Kai was coupled up with Tanyel but the pair had a falling out over new bombshell Samie, who Kai decided to couple up with..
He said: "She's absolutely beautiful, from the conversations I've had with her she seems like she's got really nice characteristics and a beautiful personality. I'd like to explore that connection further and see if there's a genuine connection there."
Ron & Tanyel
Ron was coupled up with Ellie but decided to pick Tanyel, the pair are now in a friendship couple.
He said: "I've decided to couple up with this girl because she has stood by me and watched me mess up time and time again and put me in check every single time. In here I hold her at such high value and I think she's the most beautiful person inside and out. I couldn't stand experiencing this journey without you as my best friend in here."
Tom & Ellie
Tom was the last boy to choose. He was coupled up with Zara but the pair decided to cool things off and he later enjoyed secret kisses with Ellie. Sam ultimately picked Ellie, sending Zara home. You can see the full list of dumped Islanders here.
He said: "I feel like she's had a rough time in the villa so far, it's not an easy decision for me I never want to see anyone go home, I do believe this girl is genuine and she does want to meet someone in the villa, she deserves a good shot whether that's with me or someone else."
