Two islanders have reportedly been dumped from the Love Island villa amid a savage plot twist which is guaranteed to leave viewers GAGGED.
The brand new 2024 series finally took to our screens last week following mass anticipation, and producers have been throwing surprises and shocks our way ever since.
During the first episode, bosses introduced the first ITV2 bombshell in the form of TOWIE's Joey Essex, who quickly recoupled with scouse MUA Samantha Kenny, after which hairdresser Sam Taylor was immediately dumped.

It was subsequently speculated that another big-name star could be set to join the line-up, with rumours swirling last week that dancer and social media star Abbie Quinnen could a potential newbie.
Since then, we've had newbies strutting into the villa left, right and centre - causing chaos and breaking hearts every step of the way.
Not to mention the colossal arguments which have already broken out between several of the 2024 ladies - especially that blow-out between Harriet and Jess. I mean, awkward!
And according to The Sun, the villa is scheduled to descend into chaos during tonight's episode, with two islanders having fallen victim to a brutal double dumping after which they were forced out of the plush Spanish villa last night.
The news outlet reported that following the shock Love Island announcement, the remaining islanders were left reaching for the tissues after two of the cast's favourite stars were dealt the blow.
"It was very emotional and there were tears shed around the firepit," an insider reportedly told the publication.
"The islanders weren't expecting to go and it sent shockwaves through the villa. It made them all realise that any of them could go at any time."
During last night's (Tuesday) instalment, the group gathered together, only to receive a text revealing that the public had been voting and that two islanders in a couple would be dumped.
The news came just minutes after OG cast member Mimii Ngulube and villa newbie Omar Nyame announced they weren't that into each other, and chose to recouple.
Whilst Mimii selected her original love interest Ayo, Omar opted to choose Uma, who themselves had been getting to know one another.
It may well be, however, that neither of the newly-formed couples will get the chance to crack on as intended, with producers set to cut one duo's time short.
Also at risk of having been dumped are Munveer and Patsty, Ciaran and Nicole, Ronnie and Jess, Joey and Samantha, Mimii and Ayo.
