Manchester beauty Sophie Lee was the first contestant to be sent packing after she became the victim of an opening twist.
Shakira saved herself by picking a boy she wanted to couple with.
By choosing footballer Harry Cooksley, she eliminated Sophie.
This time around, it’s a boy who bites the dust after one is left single in a shock recoupling.
It follows the arrival of bombshells Shea Mannings and Remell Mullins, both of which got to pick first in the villa reshuffle.
This leaves the boys wondering if they’ve done enough to be chosen.
Toni says: “Tables have turned!”
They haven’t got long to wait. That evening Tommy gets a text:
Can all Islanders gather around the Firepit immediately, #DecisionTime.
As the boys line up, the girls get ready to make their choices and their first speeches at the Firepit.
But will they stay coupled up with their current partners or have the events of the past few days been enough to make them take action?
And that’s not all for this re-coupling as a surprise extra text arrives that none of the Islanders had seen coming.
Fans flocked to Reddit to share their opinions and one said: “I wonder what the text is that no one saw coming.
“I think it’s that the bombshells pick first as i doubt they would dump them after 24 hours Or new bombshell.”
Love Island 2025 – current couples

LOVE Island’s 2025 cast have already undergone a shake-up, here are the latest couples:
- Sophie Lee has been given the boot
- Shakira Khan, 22, chose her partner Harry Cooksley, 30, to re-couple up with
- Now the couples are – Toni and Ben
- Meg and Dejon
- Shakira and Harry
- Helena and Conor
- Alima and Blu
- Megan and Tommy.
Another suggested: “I think Toni might choose Conor. Then maybe a new bombshell comes in and has to choose between Ben and Blu to even out the numbers.”
While a third said: “After reading the press release I think Shakira picks Ben and Toni picks Conor. Blu and Shea are left.
“Either they send in a bombshell to pick between them or the group gets to decide which one to dump.”
But another had a different opinion and suggested: “I think they are gonna go on a date with a bombshell and she is gonna choose the one she wants.”
Meanwhile, Love Island star Shakira’s family have slammed a show rival for catty comments saying ‘what is her problem?’
And chaos reigns in the villa as Harry finds out about Shakira’s Hideaway kiss and Shea tries to split the show’s most solid couple.
Plus viewers have ranted “get him out”, after they claimed one of the boys is showing “scary red flag behaviour.”
