Series 12 of Love Island has seen more triangles than a primary school maths lesson — and 22-year-old Harrison Solomon has been in a fair few of them! But what happened in last night's episode (15th July) of the reality show shocked and surprised most of us.

Despite getting (very) close to Casa Bombshell Lauren in the last few episodes, the pro footballer told pal Harry, he "wants Toni" — before taking her for a private chat on the terrace and convincing her to pick him in the recoupling.

Despite fans 'screaming at the screen' for Toni to stick with Cach, the 25-year-old apologised to the "people they'd hurt" in the process and chose to couple up with Harrison, leaving Lauren in tears.

The fallout from the dramatic recoupling is set to continue into tonight's episode (Wednesday 16th), with Lauren telling Harrison: “I’ve wasted my whole time getting to know you for no reason… To do what you’ve done to me tonight is so disrespectful. I feel like everything has been a lie.”

Meanwhile Cach is visibly emotional in tonight's episode too, confiding with Ty on the terrace, after telling Toni: “That was one of the most embarrassing things I’ve been through in my entire life… You knew what decision you wanted to make, you were just waiting for the go ahead from someone else.

“I can’t respect that. Good luck with your endeavours.”

He then tells Ty: “I can’t believe I’m crying. I haven’t cried in years.”

Fans took to social media after last night's episode to show their shock at the recoupling, with one writing: 'I really wanted her to choose Cach tonight at the re-coupling, tell everyone he had called her up to terrace and what he had said to her, and wipe the smug look off Harrisons face' (sic).

And another: 'I actually can't believe what I'm seeing, someone needs to check on Lauren to see if she's ok.'

While many came out in support of Cach, writing: 'Cach got done dirty but handled it with class'.

Also in tonight's episode, we see Yasmin and Jamie head out on their first date — and Boris sets his sights on Emma!

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