LOVE Island’s festival was far from fun after THREE Islanders were sent packing.
Viewers knew a dumping was looming after the vote for favourite couple but no one expected a third to be axed.
While The Sun is keeping the identities of the booted cast locked down to preserve the surprise for viewers, the shock twist left the villa horrified and in tears.
We can reveal that the trio included a girl who has caused loads of drama this year.
The scenes will play out over a number of episodes this week.
A source said: “Love Island fans know a dumping usually follows a favourite couple vote and it often happens during format points like themed parties - so there’s no surprise in that.
“But the fact a third islander got the boot is a real shock twist and it left the cast horrified and in tears.
“They thought the cull was over after a couple were shown the door.
“The trio includes a girl who has been a big part of this year’s most dramatic moments.”
It comes as the Islanders were treated to their very own music festival headlined by Tinie Tempah.
The party was a chance for them to let their hair down and escape the drama of the past few days, with Lauren Wood and Harrison Solomon's double exit sending shockwaves through the villa.
Pass Out hitmaker Tinie was the perfect man to boost morale.
He is the most successful British rap artist in UK chart history – being the first to reach platinum sales status with his US debut single, Written in the Stars.
In a first look at tonight's episode, he can be seen surrounded by the cast during an electric performance, telling them: "Make some noise!!"
He even adds a warning to one of the boys: "I've been seeing you man, behave!"
But the feelgood vibes end when the results of the latest public vote are revealed.
Fans flooded social media last night with their predictions of who will be in the bottom two.
One said: "It’s absolutely a vote to get rid of the ones who aren’t going anywhere - Emma & Boris watch out."
Another insisted: "I have no doubt in my mind that this is probably going to be a vote where Dejon will be in the bottom BUT he won’t leave."
One more echoed over on X: "From all The votes so far I fear it’s Emma and Boris that’d be dumped, haven’t seen anyone voting for them. Meg and Dejon live to fight another day sigh."
