Two Love Island stars have been axed as part of a shock twist.
The hit ITV2 reality dating show is well underway for this year’s series and two of its contestants faced the chop on Friday night.
But the broadcaster has decided to keep their identities under wraps until the show returns on Sunday and their interviews with host Maya Jama are expected to air on Aftersun.
A source told The Sun: ‘Two Islanders were dumped from the villa last night in an epic elimination the couples weren’t expecting.
‘It has already sent shock waves through the Majorca mansion as the islanders weren’t expecting it.

The hit ITV2 reality dating show is well underway for this year’s series and two of its contestants are said to have faced the chop on Friday night
‘With no new episode until Sunday night bosses behind-the-scenes are desperate to keep the identity of the two star’s under wraps until the dramatic episode is broadcast.’
On Friday’s episode, dumped islanders Diamanté and Lucy pull Matilda Draper and Uma Jammeh out of the villa for a catch up where they will reveal exactly what happened.
Talking to Mimi and Grace, Matilda said: ‘What happened to our little baby, perfect, angel face Sean?’
This prompted Grace to say: ‘The fact he’s done that and has little boys’ holiday, like which Wil said in his speech as well, he was like: ‘you know it’s just a boys trip, like holiday, I’m just here to have fun.’
Shocked, Uma shouted: ‘What?! Who is this man?’
Matilda admitted: ‘I’m very conflicted right now, he’s been moving mad in Casa…’
Chatting on the daybeds with the girls, Uma confesseed: ‘I just feel different, it’s changed things for me, he’s let me down so much.’

Trying to find out exactly what Ciaran told Nicole, Ellie asked Nicole to share what she has been told.
‘He messaged you on Insta or like, there were messages on Insta. I don’t even know like the thing’, Nicole quipped.
But Ellie revealed: ‘It was on and off messaging for a good few months’ before confirming that the two had actually met before on a night out.
As Nicole admitted Ciaran never told her that, Ellie replied: ‘I am quite shocked at his head. It hasn’t turned just because of what I sort of know he’s like on the outside.
