As Yasmin pointed out: 'There's been a divide from the start,' and fans have mentioned on several occasions how Helena and Meg seem to be in a group split away from Yasmin, Toni and Shakira.
Now, fans are convinced that they've worked out the exact moment during the dramatic series that led to the bitter feud - and it was at the very beginning.
On Reddit, someone wrote: 'It's crazy to think that meg and shakira literally walked in together for them to just not get along.
'I purely blame Meg i think it's her being jealous of Shakira. All Meg has done is make snarky comments about her from day 1 esp day 2 that poor girl Shakira she even told Toni how the vibes in the dressing room felt so weird bc they were all hostile towards Shakira for simply doing what she was meant to do.
'Also Dejon pulled Shakira for a chat she instantly said 'Shakira stole my man' SINCE DAY 1 she's been calling dejon her man when they just met.. she's a bitter freak.'
Many people agreed that the divide between the ladies - Meg and Shakira in particular - started when Dejon and Shakira went for a chat.
Someone else said: "Meg instantly said 'Shakira stole my man' from day one.'
Another commented: 'All the boys standing up for shakira on day 2 cemented their jealousy. Poor girl was doomed from the start.'
This week, The Sun reported how Shakira had a meltdown in the beach hut after ending her blossoming relationship with Conor over fears she'd never get over Harry.
Love Island star branded 'biggest scammer' in the villa as she reacts to couple's huge milestone
Shakira was so upset by the situation, she went to seek support from the 24/7 duty of care team and asked to leave.
Bosses were able to help her through the turmoil over a number of hours and she made the decision to stay.
The meltdown happened after she ended things with the Irish rugby lad.
A source said: 'Shakira has been through the wringer and was already at breaking point over her heartbreak by Harry.
'When Harry made it exclusive with Helena, everything unravelled and she realised she wasn't ready to be with Conor properly.
'She did the brave thing by ending that, but then the floodgates opened and she just didn't want to be in the villa anymore.
'She went to the beach hut and asked to leave the villa.
'The duty of care team were able to help her through her emotions and she decided to stay.'
But as well as troubled romances, Shakira has also been at loggerheads with the girls on several occasions, and has failed to see eye to eye with Meg and Helena in particular.

BBCNOW/Otaka/Kholodenko review – Rachmaninov fills seats but magic is missing
Sometimes the simple tactics work best. It turns out that if you name a Prom after one of the best-loved works in the classical canon, you don't just get a full house for that piece, but also a near-capacity Royal Albert Hall after the interval for Witold Lutosławski's Concerto for Orchestra. Vivid, gritty, bracing: what the programme hails as the 20th-century Polish composer's 'most successful large-scale work' is many things, but it certainly isn't classical easy listening. And perhaps some of those drawn by the ultra-familiar will now have been set on a voyage of discovery. Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No 2 needn't be easy listening either, of course, even if its association with Brief Encounter sealed its status as the last word in impassioned pianism. It's a strange work, full of delicately balanced orchestral textures and vital dialogues between orchestra and soloist. But not in this performance, which was largely driven by Ukrainian pianist Vadym Kholodenko, making his Proms debut. After a thrilling crescendo in his opening chords, there was rubato galore (dragging the BBC National Orchestra of Wales forward or holding them back) but minimal subtlety of expression or dynamics. All the notes were there – and many in the hall were clearly delighted to hear them – but with little magic from either Kholodenko or BBCNOW, whose playing lacked the finesse demanded by Rachmaninov's score beyond the biggest of the big tunes. The orchestra fared better in Lutosławski's colourful shifts of timbre and mood. In his final appearance as BBCNOW's conductor laureate after a nearly 40-year association with the orchestra, Tadaaki Otaka commanded both massive, muscular interjections and passages of hushed, finicky counterpoint that stilled the audience, inviting attention. The orchestra continued to sound most comfortable in the loudest tutti passages, where brass was served in lurid splashes. The closest this concert got to genuine subtlety was in its opening piece, the Concerto for String Orchestra by Lutosławski's Polish contemporary Grażyna Bacewicz. There BBCNOW's XL string section produced a rich, generous sound (carefully blended, bowing as one), folk idioms occasionally breaking playfully through Bacewicz's mid-century musical nattiness – all led with energetic precision by Otaka. Listen again on BBC Sounds until 12 October. The Proms continue until 13 September.

Love Island in new fix row as fans hit out at ‘massive rule break'
One Islander was left in tears after the 'massive rule break' FAN FURY Love Island in new fix row as fans hit out at 'massive rule break' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island has found itself in a new fix row, as fans hit out at a 'massive rule break.' Last night saw Dejon express his concerns over fellow Islander Megan, who was dumped from the villa but recently made a bombshell return. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 6 Love Island has found itself in a new fix row, as fans hit out at a 'massive rule break' Credit: Eroteme 6 The boys discussed what had been happening in the outside world Credit: Eroteme 6 Dejon expressed concerns about Megan's behaviour since her return to the villa Credit: Eroteme He expressed his reservations to Blu, a dumped Islander who also re-entered with Megan, which led to Blu telling Dejon and Harry some snippets about the outside world, including public opinion on the other Islanders. Lying on the daybeds, Blu could be heard saying to the boys: 'From the outside you see two sides. 'There's a good side and a bad side, and Megan is sitting on the fence because she doesn't want to get really involved in the whole drama.' He continued: 'It seems like they're really loved,' referencing Shakira and Toni. Adding: 'And the other girls look like the mean girls.' And fans have had their say on social media, hitting out at the 'massive rule break.' One person said: 'Anyone catch Blu literally spilling the beans on public perception. I swear past islanders said there was a rule where they couldn't talk about the outside? All of a sudden that doesn't matter??!!' Someone else penned: 'Producers clearly told them to have the conversation. Blu is trying his hardest to cause as much drama as he can.' A third echoed: 'Love Island should be a bubble once out. No getting back again!' Love Island star is 'sabotaging' rival couple ahead of the final, insist furious fans Someone else added: 'This is awful - the Islanders should not be told what's going on on the outside or it'll change the way they act around each other. Rule break at its finest.' Blu's comments about popularity weren't the only ones he shared from the outside world on Wednesday evening. He also spilled details on what Megan had been up to outside of the villa before she returned. He told the boys that he'd heard she had caught up with ex Tommy on the outside. This information was then relayed to Conor, who then pulled Megan for a chat by the fire pit to question what had been going on in the outside world. But Conor ended up being wary of the boys - something he then relayed to Megan. Megan and Conor were seen chatting casually about the behaviour they've noticed in the villa and wanting to do their best to be there for each other. 'What I will say as I've seen it a lot in here is that when couples are going good, and it's getting to crunch time now, it's convenient that the boys come up with a problem for me and a problem for you to make you act out of character and to make me act out of character and to turn us against each other,' said Conor. Fans have been quick to spot the slights aimed at Megan and Conor's relationship, claiming that Dejon is doing all he can to sabotage them as he feels threatened by the rival couple. One fan said: 'Dejon is just straight up sabotaging other couples now?!' Another added: 'Conor don't feed into it! Doing everything to get the heat off themselves, it's actually so applaudable', followed by laughing face emojis. 6 Blu told the boys that Shakira and Toni were popular Credit: Eroteme 6 Blu said the public can see the divide going on Credit: Eroteme
