VANISHING ACT 

Love Island fans baffled as Islander goes missing in the villa as they ‘forget he exists’

LOVE Island fans have been left baffled as an Islander went missing in the villa during last night’s episode.

The Islander has been raking in the screen time over the past few episodes so fans were in for quite the shock when he barely made an appearance on our screens.

Last night’s instalment saw the famous Mallorca villa rocked by not only a recoupling but electrician Sam’s wild antics as he landed himself in a love triangle.

But through all the drama, fans pointed out that property broker Aidan Murphy, 23, was nowhere to be seen.

One fan wrote: “oh I forgot Aiden and Yas existed I can’t lie.”

Another fan penned: “I’ve enjoyed the lack of Aiden this ep. Is he sick?”

A third person said: “Where was Aiden today?”

Meanwhile, a fourth viewer added: “This episode has been so peak because we’ve hardly seen Aiden.”

Aidan flashed up on the screen for a brief moment as he prepared for the recoupling.

It seems Aidan and Yasmin, who he is coupled up with, have had a quiet few days as the cameras zoned in on new villa feuds.

Stunning blonde Ellie Chadwick was devastated last night after Jasmine kissed Kavan, who she had been getting to know, on the terrace.

The 24-year-old was left in floods of tears as she felt rejected again.

Jasmine left fans gobsmacked by her actions during yesterday’s instalment of the ITV show as she vowed to keep her OG beau Lorenzo in the picture despite the snog.

Elsewhere in the villa, Ope looked fuming after gorgeous bombshell Victoria chose to recouple with him.

Ope has been all in with Angelista and despite their rocky few days, he had a face like thunder when he sat down in his new couple.

But fans were convinced that Ope was putting on an Oscar-worthy performance.

One fan said: “This Ope brudda is pretending to be p***ed that Victoria picked him.”

While another fan added: “Ope trying to act like he wasn’t happy to be picked by the bombshell.”
