LOVE Island fans claim they have worked out the "real" reason why Ron quit All Stars - and it’s NOT because he didn’t find love
Last night Ron, 27, shocked fans when he decided he'd had enough of villa life, declaring he "couldn't find a connection".
Last night viewers watched as Ron pulled the gang to the firepit to reveal he wanted to go home.
"I know we’ve just lost Scott [who quit the villa on Sunday], and I know it’s s**t, but it is my time," he told everyone.
"There’s only so much that I can do, sitting in the sun, just sort of staring at the door for the right person.
"I just don’t know whether that right person is going to come in for me so I am going to go tonight."
Ron previously told the boys of the decision: "My time is done... I think, not having a couple, not having, like that strong connection with anyone, I’m a very logical person."
"It’s like, what chance is that right person gonna walk through the door? I want to leave on a happy note."
However, some fans aren't buying this as the reason he wanted to leave.
They now have a theory that he knew Samie Elishi was set to head into the villa as a bombshell.
The pair famously didn't get on, when they both appeared on Winter Love Island back in 2023.
Taking to a social media forum, one fan wrote: "Ron probably left because he knew Samie was coming in.
"She was vile to him towards the end of their series."
While another agreed: "Don’t know if he knew she was coming in but yes you’re right, Sammie pretty much isolated Ron towards the end of that series, it was uncomfortable viewing."
THE EX FILES
Meanwhile, immediately after Ron announced he was leaving on last night's All Stars, his ex-girlfriend Lana Jenkins appeared to take a swipe at him.
It came after she shared a picture of herself enjoying a drink in the bar.
In the caption, she simply wrote: "The Bar" alongside an emoji chart rising off the page, and a winky face.
Fans quickly commented that it appeared to be a swipe at Ron, with her "setting the bar high" for him when he returned to All Stars.
"Another Ron dig?? 🥱😴," wrote one fan, prompting another to respond: "he literally stated his bar is high, she was how high the bar was set at.. it's the truth far from a dig 😂"
"What a indirect😂" laughed another, while a fourth said: "Well that's not Cryptic! ;)"
RON'S LOVE ISLAND JOURNEY
During his first time in the villa, Ron found himself in demand – first coupling up with Lana before he was "stolen" in a recoupling by Tanyel Revan.
He remained with Tanyel for the next couple of weeks, but ultimately returned to Lana, with the pair making it to the final together.
The pair were runners up of the Winter 2023 series, with Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan – who are now engaged to be married – taking home the win.
However, Lana and Ron split three months later, with Ron later commenting that he didn't enjoy a relationship in the public eye as it "ruined it".
He told The Sun at the time: "The world is a bit nuts, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, and if it was in another world it might have worked."
Ahead of entering All Stars, Ron said he would flat out quit if she walked in as a bombshell, saying he couldn't watch her crack on with other men in front of him.
