LOVE Island fans are fuming after one popular Islander was sent packing last night - sparking accusations the show is "fixed".
The Sun was first to reveal the eviction - and how the Love Island singletons had already left - with our source letting slip how "the cast were reeling after this shock move".
We told how "one ousted Islander in particular will be much missed" - and the news clearly hit hard with those watching at home as show OG Alima Gagigo was given the boot.
She was forced to exit the series with bombshell Ryan Bannister, who had only just set foot in the matchmaking show compound.
The shock elimination came when the Islanders were gathered around the firepit under the impression another recoupling was about to take place.
But the group were blindsided when two fresh bombshells, Billykiss and Ryan, were asked to stand - and the boys were told to step forward if they wanted to couple up with Billykiss.

Moments later, when no girls stepped forward for Ryan, the group assumed Alima and Ryan would be paired.
But instead, a brutal twist revealed both were being dumped from the Island immediately - a decision that left the rest of the villa stunned and in tears.
Fans have since taken to Facebook to vent their frustration that she was dumped, while others - including Meg Moore - were saved.
While some have claimed producers "fixed" the outcome, it is purely speculation and there is no evidence that an intervention took place.
One upset viewer wrote: “She was so sweet, should have picked her."
Another said: “It’s totally fixed. They’ve done it that way so Meg was saved."
Others speculated that the outcome would’ve been different had the power been in the hands of the bombshells.
A third claimed: “Obviously if the bombshells picked, I think Harry and Meg would be on their way home. Totally fixed."
Someone else agreed: “Course it’s fixed.”
One more added: “Show is a big fix. He looked like he wanted to stand up. Maya said all would be different this series.”
Fans were previously left fuming that no bombshell had been brought in for Alima, as they demanded to know why she hadn't been considered.
Commenting on social media after Ryan and Billykiss were revealed, one wrote: “can they please bring in someone for Alima oh my god.”
Another said: “Some good guys need to be brought in for Alima.”
EVICTION BLOW
On Wednesday night’s episode of Love Island, Tommy had a text asking all Islanders to gather round the Firepit.
A second text told Ryan and Billykiss, the new bombshells, to stand at the front.
The boys were told to stand up if they'd like to recouple with Billykiss.
Conor stood up, and says his date went really well with Billykiss and he'd be doing himself a disservice to not explore their connection.
Alima, left uncoupled, then took Billykiss' place up at the front.
The girls then had to stand up if they'd like to recouple with new bombshell Ryan, but none of the girls did so.
Due to both being single, Alma and new bombshell Ryan were dumped from the show.
Ryan remarked that his time was short but sweet, but it’s Alima’s exit that left the girls in tears, as Toni and Yasmin were both seen crying.
Ryan had only just entered the show as a bombshell.
