Love Island's Liam Llewellyn 'quits' the series after five days in the villa

It looks like Welsh Love Islander Liam Llewellyn has become the first to leave this year's series of the show. Liam, 22, is said to deliver some serious news in tonight's episode the news to the rest of the group in scenes due to air tonight, Friday, June 10.

The master's graduate, who is also the son of David 'Dai' Llewellyn, had a rocky start to his time in the villa, which started when all the contestants entered on Sunday, June 5. Having initially been paired with Michael Owen's daughter, Gemma, Liam became single after Italian stallion Davide picked her to be with him. The Sun is reporting a Love Island insider said: "The reasons behind it are unknown so viewers will be glued to their screens tonight to find out."

Early scenes in the series looked promising for Liam, who was over the moon to be partnered with Gemma. Despite this, the 19-year-old didn't reciprocate the same feelings and her eyes were set on other Islanders, Davide and Luca. In Thursday's episode, Liam went on a date with the villa's two new arrivals - Ekin-Su and Afia. Unfortunately, neither seemed to be interested in the Welsh sports student.
