SHAKIRA and Toni's savage comments behind Ben's back are exposed before an explosive row kicks off in tonight's Love Island.
Tensions rise as the girls' critical remarks about the taxi driver, 23, come to light, triggering a heated argument.
Shakira says, “His presence pi**es me off,” as Toni warns her, “The ick! He likes to throw this word around, maybe you should. Don’t make any rash decisions.”
During a Firepit game, Look Who’s Talking, Islanders read out quotes and try to guess who said them.
Shakira’s comment about Ben, “I don’t know if the conversation is stimulating for my brain, I’m quite a smart girl," is confirmed by the group.
When confronted, Shakira wants to discuss it with Ben, who replies, “Well, it’s an open discussion,” but disagrees with her explanation.
Ben’s quote about Shakira also comes up.
He had said: “I don’t know where she’s at, I don’t know if she’s a respectful girl, I feel like she’s a very flirty girl that didn’t know her boundaries.”
The prompts Shakira to tell him to “pipe down”.
Meanwhile, Toni admits to saying about Dejon, “I think it goes back to the fact that we see a different side of you when she’s not breathing down your neck,” and stands by the comment.
She says: “It’s true, we do, she knows it.”
Fans previously slammed Shakira for ‘leading Ben on’ after her cruel comment gave her true feelings away.
Yesterday, new bombshell Harrison Solomon made his decision and picked Toni to stay in the villa, sending Malisha home as a result.
And since his villa arrival, the footballer has been getting to know the ladies, including Shakira, who is coupled up with Ben.
Chatting by the firepit, Shakira implied that her conversations with Ben weren’t mentally stimulating enough for her.
She told Harrison: “I don’t think he’s someone I’d go for on the outside world.
“When I speak to him, we get on well. But on a deeper level, I’m not sure.”
Harrison interjected to ask the brunette beauty if she and Ben have “deeper chats.”
Shakira replied: “No, well we’ve had a few. I like conversations that stimulate me and I’m quite a smart girl, do you know what I mean?”
Shakira also said there’s a neon light saying trouble above Ben’s head.
Since their firepit chat, fans have taken to X to say Shakira is “leading Ben on.”
One person penned: “Shakira hates Ben so bad,” and a second wrote: “Shakira is definitely leading Ben on.”
A third wrote: “Shakira so why you kissing him and leading him on?”
Others have claimed that Shakira has called Ben “dumb,” as one wrote: “Shakira basically called Ben dumb.”
A second penned: “No way shakira just called ben thick by saying her conversations with ben aren’t stimulating to her brain… please.”
Another said: “Bens not stimulating enough for shakira.”
- Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
