In heartbreaking scenes Love Island star Shaq Muhammad broke down in tears during tonight's episode. After witnessing Tanya Manhenga cheating on him at Casa Amor, Shaq sobbed outside the villa.
The 24-year-old Londoner lost his cool after footage of Tanya, 23, snogging Irish bombshell Martin was shown on Cinema Night. After kissing Martin at Casa Amor and bringing him back to the villa despite Shaq remaining faithful, Tanya - who has been accused of 'gaslighting' Shaq - refused to apologise and instead stood her ground.
Viewers reacted to the drama on Twitter and took Shaq's side. One fan said: "Why am I actually getting emotional for Shaq I want to give him a hug." A second said: "JUSTICE FOR SHAQ TANYA HAS TO GO." A third added: "Nah Tanya is emotionally manipulative, it goes beyond just being a villain it’s low key cruel like Shaq is far from perfect but she’s used all his flaws against him."

The boys were given the option to choose a movie, and when they decided to watch Catch Me If You Tan, a confrontation quickly broke out. Tanya was quickly forced into a corner as footage from Casa Amor showed her declaring there was a spark between her and Martin before they shared a passionate kiss.
Shaq, from across the garden, asked: "So it was just a peck, yeah, and he went to kiss you? So we're lying now?" To which Tanya replied: "If you're looking for something to be angry about, this isn't it." The confrontation continued as Tanya tried to fight her corner and Shaq said: "I knew you were looking nervous for a reason."
"How are you actually getting defensive? Am I not allowed to defend myself?" Tanya snapped. Shaq said she looked nervous, and Tanya replied: "I'm not nervous, I'm absolutely fine honey." Shaq snapped: "That's not what you said though! That doesn't look like it's just Martin kissing you. You're quick to jump on a bandwagon but you don't look at yourself."
Later, Martin told the boys: "The way Tanya is portraying it to Shaq is that I was begging her. She has made me look like a d**k head." Tanya also criticised Shaq to Olivia in the kitchen and moaned that she had to reassure him, not knowing that he had been crying outside.
