Following a bombshell recoupling which reportedly saw her partner Wil Anderson sensationally dumped from the villa, Love Island star Uma Jammeh is understood to have quit the show in a shock twist.
The last few episodes have seen the formerly loved-up duo on the rocks following Geordie lad Wil's antics during the Casa Amor interval.
Over a period of three nights, quantity surveyor Wil enjoyed his share of the 'boy's holiday' by getting to know new girl Lucy, whilst his partner Uma remained in the other house, surrounded by six new boys.

As well as locking lips with Scottish beauty Lucy behind fan-favourite Uma's back, Wil had viewers blindsided by asking how she'd feel if he selected her during Thursday night's shock recoupling.
When it came down to the moment, however, Wil chose to stick with Uma - who'd also chosen to remain loyal - and the pair were reunited.
What initially appeared to be a happy Love Island union quickly turned sour, however, after Uma caught wind of Wil's behaviour behind the scenes.
After she was subsequently sent on a 'catch up coffee' with dumped bombshell Lucy - who filled her in on Wil's charming and upfront antics whilst she was away - Uma was left unsure whether she could ever move passed it.
And it looked as though Wil's final hopes of a rekindlement were dashed following Sunday's episode, which saw the return of the eagerly-awaited 'Movie Night'.
All the remaining couples were shown clips of what really went down when the boys and girls were separated last week, with the video of Wil kissing Lucy in the Hideaway behind Uma's back landing him in hot water once again.
According to MailOnline, tonight's episode will see an even bigger shocker take place after another newbie - Reuben Collins - entered the villa, taking Uma, Mimii and Jessie on date.
And apparently, tonight's instalment will see Wil dumped from the villa after a shock recoupling, with ITV icon Uma apparently quitting the show to be with him.
A source told the publication: "Uma made her feelings towards Wil clear by remaining loyal to him during Casa Amor.
"But now she's made a huge commitment by quitting Love Island after he was dumped when she was stolen by one of the new bombshells."
The insider continued: "It was an emotional moment shared by all of her fellow Islanders but it's what she wanted to do to remain true to herself.
"She knew at this last stage in the competition that she wasn't going to develop feelings for anyone else and she couldn't see Wil leave on his own."
