Love Island fans send bosses a warning as they 'work out' who is DUMPED
One girl will leave the villa
Last updated 1st Feb 2023
It's safe to say the Winter edition of Love Island is absolutely jam packed full of drama, mainly thanks to Islanders like Ron Hall, Olivia Hawkins, Tom Clare and Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown.
When things kicked off on last night's (Tuesday 31st January) episode, after Olivia found out that Tom had been kissing bombshell Ellie Spence on the terrace, bosses dropped the dreaded news that a recoupling was looming.
As Islanders gathered around the fire pit so the boys could pick which girls they'd like to couple up with, viewers sent a major warning to bosses, with many thinking Zara would face a dumping.
One wrote: 'IF ZARA GOES HOME IM PUTTING IN AN OFCOM COMPLAINT #LoveIsland'. (sic)
Another added: 'They did this on purpose. The producers know what they’re doing. If Zara goes home, I’m calling Ofcom', with a third writing: ' Nah the producers better drop an extra bombshell for Zara before this recoupling or I’m complaining to OFCOM #loveisland'. (sic)
A fourth then preached: 'If Zara gets dumped this week complaints will be made to ofcom about bullying, these producers know exactly what they are doing #loveisland'. (sic)

After discovering the news herself from Tanya Manhenga, Zara stormed to the terrace to spill the goss to Olivia, who later had it out with the semi-professional footballer.
