Love Island fans gobsmacked after Tanya goes on secret visit to Shaq after recoupling

After a dramatic Casa Amor, the shocking antics continue on ITV's Love Island after viewers spotted Tanya get up from her own bed to kiss Shaq before returning. After Casa Amor, Tanya chose to recouple with Martin Akinola, rather than stick with Shaq, whom she'd been coupled with since the beginning.

Admitting to leaving her bed, Tanya told Jessie she went down to Shaq to give him a hug, "the biggest hug ever", and a kiss before leaving him alone in bed. Tanya has been getting to know Martin since bringing him back to the main villa, but her heart seems to be elsewhere.

Not one to be left out of the gossip, Shaq told 'the boys' (naturally not all of them) Tanya hugged him tightly, then kissed him. He admitted it made him happy, but that if she did want to get back into his good books she'd have to work and graft her way there. Fans were shocked at Tayna's antics, calling her "hilarious" and "messy".

One fan said: "Why did Tanya sneak off to kiss Shaq when she wasn't pulling him for a chat to apologise, get her out please."

"Loool shaq is gonna tell the boys," another added. Someone else said: "Poor Shaq's life flashed before his eyes anyway."

"Tanya is hella messyyyyyyyyy." Another shocked fan said: "NO WAY DID TANYA GET UP AND KISS SHAQ AND THEN GET BACK IN BED WITH MARTIN???"

The pair discussed their kiss with Shaq asking "what was that about, last night?"

Tanya replied she "couldn't sleep" and her "heart hurt". After chatting for a few moments more, she told Shaq "love you". He replied "love you". Some fans felt she should just tell Martin the truth about how she felt.

The show then showed Tanya explaining to Martin she did not feel the same attraction she felt in Casa - which Martin agreed with. But despite agreeing with her about the break, Martin dismissed Tanya's claim of trying to "see things through" with him.

Tanya told him there was a fight between her heart and her head, but she knows where her heart is now.

But the show is never short on drama as fans cheered for Kai after he "stood up" to Olivia, who accused him of calling her fake and disingenuous. The long-time couple, who split for Casa Amor, both returned to the villa with new partners - Kai with Sanam and Olivia with Martin.

Fans were confused by Olivia apparent rage, with one saying: "Olivia needs to get a grip and realise it wasn’t just Kai who picked someone else cause she did the same."

Another said: "Why does no one in that villa say anything to liv? She has a lot to say about everyone, bitter with Tom & Kai," while someone added: "Kai is much more likeable now, you see why it’s not good to carry around dead weight."
