Four Islanders have been secretly kicked out of the Love Island villa

It's dumping time!

With 18 residents now in the Love Island villa since Casa Amor ended, things have been a little cramped. It feels like high time some of them were booted off - but little did we know that the eviction has already happened. Yep; two couples were sent packing last night and are already on their way back to the UK. In scenes to be shown in tonight's episode, the Islanders are celebrating Anna's birthday with a party when Maura gets a text telling everyone to gather around the fire pit. They are told that viewers have been voting to save their favourite couples. The three couples with the lowest number of votes are revealed and then the couple with the fewest votes of all is announced and asked to leave the island. But this doesn't mean the rest of the Islanders are safe. The double-dumping caught the entire villa by surprise, a source told The Sun, with filming carrying on on until 3am.

"The Islanders are all shellshocked after the dumping which went on until the early hours of the morning," the insider said. "It's everyone's worst nightmare and came completely out of the blue as they celebrated Anna's birthday."

Love Island continues on Virgin Media Two tonight at 9pm.
