Love Island fans were left reeling just one day into the new series as one couple locked lips. Tensions reached a boiling point today as Shakira set her sights on finding a new connection after American bombshell Antonia stole her man.
With the fear of being dumped from the island hanging over her, Shakira made it her mission to speak to as many of the boys as possible – but her female co-stars were not impressed. Meg seemed to be the most rattled after spotting her partner Dejon deep in conversation with Shakira, and nervously told the other girls: “I don’t have my man, Dejon’s gone – that’s it!”
Although Meg got the encouragement she needed, her counterpart, Megan, soon felt the pains of being on the chopping block as Shakira pulled Tommy for a chat by the pool.

As things started to get more flirty between Shakira and Tommy, Megan decided she needed to make a bold move. She told the other girls: “I think I need to lipse him.” Her friends were quick to egg her on, encouraging the Irish girl to lock her relationship down.
Megan interrupted Tommy and Shakira’s conversation, taking her man to the terrace where she admitted: “That made me a little bit jealous.”
One thing led to another, and Megan ended up claiming her man with a passionate kiss, much to the excitement of the Islanders down below, who cheered them on.
Viewers were shocked to see the stars getting physical so quickly, and took to X to share their thoughts on the scene, with one saying: “The kiss was way too soon.” Another agreed: “Getting jealous and literally doing a forced kiss over someone you’ve known less than 24 hours is beyond unhinged.”
Some fans even declared they were going to make an official complaint to media watchdogs about the incident, with one saying: “Naa I’m submitting an Ofcom complaint, that kiss was too cringe, made me feel mad uncomfortable.”
Before coming on the ITV2 show, Megan revealed that she isn’t fussy about a man’s looks, saying she doesn’t mind someone who is “scrawny” or has “a bit of a dad bod”.
Despite her easy-going nature when it comes to outward appearances, it seems that once another woman becomes a threat to her love life, she has what it takes to go in for the kill.
Meanwhile, Tommy came across as a down-to-earth lad, who admitted he has been knocked back a few times once girls heard what he did for a job. The landscape gardener said he wants a girlfriend who is caring and most importantly, doesn’t take herself too seriously.
He laughed: “I don’t know if that’s asking for too much, but I want a bit of everything. I haven’t got a specific type in terms of looks, though.”
