If there are any Love Island fans that thought the villa was about to settle down and have less drama, they can think again. Not only are there four brand new Islanders set to enter the villa, but now there's a major twist in the tale in tonight's episode - and it's pretty brutal.

After last night's episode (15th July) of Love Island saw Wes and Megan, Georgia and Sam and Charlie and Ellie all in the bottom three, Charlie and Ellie were sadly dumped from the villa - but the other two couples aren't in the clear just yet.

It turns out that in tonight's episode (16th July), the others are still in danger of being dumped from Love Island - but there's one thing that could save them.

Show bosses force the rest of the Islanders to pick yet another couple to ditch from the show, and after some tense discussions, Josh reveals, "We would like to save this couple because, they have had their doubters, both inside and outside of the villa and as a group, we believe that they can go the distance.

"It wasn’t an easy decision at all, there was serious debate and people put forward very good points, pros and cons for both couples. But in the end we have managed to make a decision even though it was a hard one."

Who will he choose?!

Check out which Love Island couples are still together...

Series One: Cally Jane Beech and Luis Morrison

The only surviving couple from Love Island series one is Cally Jane Beech and Luis Morrison.


After finding love on the show, Cally and Luis announced they were expecting their first child together and later welcomed their daughter Vienna Morrison-Beech.

However, even THAT'S not the end of the drama, as host Caroline Flack reveals that the rejected pair could still stay on the island - so long as they agree to DITCH their current partner.

She says, "You haven’t been saved by the public or your fellow Islanders. Therefore, you cannot stay on Love Island as a couple. This doesn’t have to be the end of your Love Island journey.

"It’s a huge decision, it’s either split up and remain in the villa or stay together and leave. Before you make that decision, I can tell you there are two new boys and two new girls waiting to enter the villa today. If you decide to split up and stay on the Island, you will each date two new Islanders and head back to the villa. You will decide who to couple up with on the next recoupling.

"But you can’t be with each other. If you decide to stay as a couple, you will leave immediately without returning to the villa. You can take some time now to talk it out and come back to me with your decision."
