Love Island villa in tears as brutal twist leads to shock bombshell dumping

Last night'sLove Island saw the shock dumping of 'least compatible' couple Ben and Andrada - and tonight Shakira and Ty decided to dump one more couple.

Shakira and Ty were given the power last night, as it was revealed they had been voted most compatible by the public. Harrison and Lauren, Tommy and Lucy and Emma and Connor all received the least votes, meaning they were at risk of being dumped from the villa.

Last night, Shakira and Ty were informed the choice would be down to them, and in emotional scenes which played out tonight, it was revealed they had chosen Tommy and Lucy to leave. The villa were left flabbergasted with the decision - as the two were in a strong couple, as opposed to Conor and Emma who had called things off.

With Tommy being an original member, the villa were left in tears as he and Lucy made their departure.

It wasn't an easy decision for the pair - who had been going through drama of their own after Connor made it clear he wanted to explore a connection with Shakira.

“This is not going to be an easy decision at all," Ty was heard saying before their brutal decision, as Shakira responded: “They’re all up there for a reason, they are the most vulnerable couples…” She was also heard saying that she thought Tommy was an "easy option" for Lucy.

After deliberating back and forth, the couple then returned to the firepit to reveal their decision. “This hasn’t been an easy decision…” Shakira announced. “We discussed whether things are already solid enough to work on the outside or if people still have things to explore within the Villa."

"So the couple we have decided to dump is Lucy and Tommy.” The decision left the rest of the Islanders open mouthed - with Tommy also expressing his confusion after his exit.

Last night saw Ben and Andrada immediately leave the villa when they received a text informing them they had been voted the least compatible couple.

The pair met during Casa Amor - but Ben was recently left questioning his partners intentions as she also formed a connection with Dejon in the secondary villa.

Speaking after their exit, Ben said about the situation with Dejon: "I knew I was her main priority. For me, we were all single and getting to know people but I knew the connection we had was meaningful. I’m a good judge of character, I can tell when someone’s energy is off so I knew Andrada had genuine feelings for me."

Andrada added: "Ben is the boy version of me but Dejon was like the candy that you couldn’t have. Your ego comes into play when you wonder if you could turn someone’s head. As time went on, I could see myself more and more being with Ben on the outside," before going on to call Dejon "calculated".

"Dejon is a very smart and calculated guy who knows how and when to use his words. We would have a flirty conversation wherein he’d ask me a question, I’d answer it, then I’d return the same question but he wouldn’t answer because it would make him look bad.

"When we got back into the main Villa, he was still open but then Meg got on his back and was upset. Then he shut it off. I don’t think that he shut it off because he wanted to, he did it because Meg told him so. I definitely feel like things would have been very different if she wasn’t there," she said.

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
