Casa Amor has shaped events in the villa for the entire week as some of the boys decided to bring new girls to the main villa.
On the long-running dating programme, some of the girls also chose to recouple with more of the bombshells as relationships were tested.
Harry Cooksley has been involved in a love triangle between Helena Ford and his ex-girlfriend Emma Munro.
Meg clashed with new bombshell Malisha after her date with Dejon, while it seems that things might be back on with Toni and Harrison.
As a new recoupling looms, producers have taken a rare step to make sure as much villa action makes it to the airwaves.
Tonight's edition of Love Island has been extended by 20 minutes so viewers can get the most out of the super dramatic recoupling.
The episode is apparently so dramatic, the drama has had to be shown over five parts.
As such, the new sitcom Transaction has been pushed back with a new start time of 10.20pm.
A source told The Sun: "It's the most dramatic recoupling of the whole series and was impossible to edit down to an hour."
Recently, reality show enthusiasts were shocked by Harrison's recent behaviour.

Onlookers were initially obsessed when Toni recreated the iconic Ekin-Su crawl on the terrace in a scandalous U-turn.
She also admitted that she was "happier" with Harrison than she was with Cacherel 'Cach' Mercer.
The Las Vegas cabana server then told her former partner to get rid of his Casa Amor bombshell, Lauren Wood, that he brought back to the villa.
But viewers noticed that before the secret conversation, Harrison reassured Lauren throughout the day.
Who will he choose?

Love Island fans brand Harrison 'disgusting' as he crawls back to Toni after appearing to have sex with Lauren TWICE before shocking recoupling
Love Island fans have branded Harrison 'disgusting' after he crawled back to Toni after appearing to have sex with Lauren during Tuesday night's episode and admitted it wasn't the first time. As the couple's settled down to sleep, one pair had other ideas as they were seen getting frisky under the covers. And it wasn't long until they took things to the next level as Harrison was seen whispering across the beds as he asked Harry whether he had a condom. After Harry passed the wrapper to his friend, Lauren was seen climbing on top of Harrison before the camera panned away to show their islanders shocked faces. And the next day as Lauren chatted with Helena and Meg, she confessed it wasn't the first time the couple had slept together as she admitted they had gone all the way the other night too. Yet despite the intimacy, Harrison was quick to change his mind on who he had a greater connection with as he went crawling back to Toni after news of a shock recoupling. Speaking to Harry he confessed: 'I want Toni' before he met with her on the terrace to beg her to give him another chance. And shockingly Toni once again chose to give things another go with her former flame, despite insisting she was 'done' earlier in the episode. Yet it seems Toni may not know the full story, with fans speculating she doesn't know he and Lauren appeared to have had sex. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, fans didn't hold back with their comments as they penned: 'Harrison is disgusting you're having sex with Lauren knowing you don't even like her and Lauren is just a whole mess both of you go home I'm sick of it'. 'And she still doesn't know he's sh****d Lauren twice this is so dirty someone intervene'; 'I beg Lauren stands up and mentions they sh****d twice Harrison ain't even told Toni yet loool'; 'this is embarrassing for Toni'; 'nah Toni, girl you've just lost the bag'; 'Harrison you CANNOT be crawling back to Toni now after having sex with Lauren and not being honest with her about it'; 'Harrison having sex with Lauren then running back to Toni ?! I know Lauren shouldn't have but this is all on Harrison'; Taking to X, formerly Twitter, fans didn't hold back with their comments as they penned: 'Harrison is disgusting you're having sex with Lauren knowing you don't even like her and Lauren is just a whole mess both of you go home I'm sick of it' 'had sex with lauren TWICE mind you, now he wants toni back'; 'Harrison wants Toni but he's having sex with Lauren. Toni and Harrison are such weirdos'; 'Harrison asking for a condom and proceeding to have sex in a room full of people ??? Disgusting'; 'How do they feel so comfortable having sex with people in the room?!'; 'Having sex with other people in the room is one thing, but on NATIONAL TV??'; 'Where is Toni sleeping? Cos if Harrison & Lauren are having sex in the same room, the respect is below hell'; 'harrison and lauren are CRAZY bc how are you having sex in a room full of people AND asking for a condom'. Harrison and Toni officially recoupled at the end of the episode, while Lauren was left in tears after she was forced to recouple with Ty. Toni and Harrison have had a rollercoaster journey since Harrison brought back the bombshell to the main villa after Casa Amor. And while Harrison appeared smitten in Casa Amor, he has attempted to reignite his triangle in the competition by flirting with Toni in a scandalous move on the terrace earlier this week as the pair continued to flirt with each other. However on Monday, despite being in tears over Harrison's sneaky antics in the villa, Lauren appeared to forgive and forget when they retired to bed as the cameras showed the two getting very close under the covers. In a nightime clip aired by the producers, the sheets could be seen moving over the top of the two islanders - suggesting they were taking their connection to the next level. The next day, Harrison seemed to have confirmed their antics as he confessed to Harry that 'the whistle was blown' and he 'scored a three pointer' - a football reference which fans took to mean they got intimate throughout the night.

Love Island's Ryan Bannister takes swipe at bosses after he was axed after just 24 hours
LOVE Island's Ryan Bannister has taken a swipe at bosses after he was axed from the show after just 24 hours. Bombshell Ryan was shown the door alongside villa OG Alima in a brutal dumping earlier this month. 3 Their 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 bombshells, Billykiss and Ryan, were asked to stand. The boys were told to step forward if they wanted to couple up with Billykiss, and Conor did, leaving Alima single. 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.

ITV Love Island fans 'disgusted' as sex scenes air between islanders
Viewers were left "disgusted" by one couple's antics after they narrowly avoided being dumped from the villa. Love Island viewers were left stunned as the show broadcast a racy bedroom scene between Harrison and his partner Lauren. The duo had a narrow escape from being booted off Love Island after Shakira and Ty decided to send Tommy and Lucy packing, sparing Harrison and Lauren along with Conor and Emma. It appeared that Harrison and Lauren chose to mark their stay in the villa with an intimate celebration in the bedroom, prompting 'disgust' among fans when Harrison was heard asking Harry for a condom. As night fell on the villa, the night cam captured Harrison reaching out to Harry and Helena's bed, enquiring: "Do you have a condom?" Harry and Helena burst into laughter, with Helena quickly retrieving one from a drawer and Harry handing it over. The couple then disappeared under the covers, engaging in a kiss as the cameras shifted focus to them. But the audience was far from amused, particularly since Harrison had mentioned he was still in contact with his ex, Toni, reports the Mirror. On X, previously known as Twitter, one viewer expressed their disbelief: "Did Harry just pass a condom to Lauren and Harrison? ? ? ! I didn't know I was watching too hot to handle". Another equally astonished fan commented: "I have never. In all my years seen someone ask for a condom on # loveisland. Like yayyyyy for sexual safety but that is tooooooooooo raz. "Do you have a condom? Is going to haunt me until the day that I die #LoveIsland," a third viewer remarked. Another added: "'Do you have a condom?' That is disgusting work. What is wrong with that man." In tonight's captivating episode of Love Island, the villa was abuzz with no opportunity for a breather. The Islanders faced a dramatic recoupling hot on the heels of a double bombshell dumping. The episode kicked off with an emotional farewell to Tommy and Lucy, who were sent packing after being deemed the least compatible by fellow Islanders Shakira and Ty. This follows last night's shock exit of Ben and Andrada, who received a sudden text decreeing their departure as the least compatible couple - a decision made shortly after they coupled up during Casa Amor's events. Ben had since been seen grappling with doubts over Andrada's sincerity after she developed a bond with Dejon while in the secondary villa. But in a twist, Toni disclosed to Lauren that she had "washed her hands" of Harrison, suggesting she'd surrendered any romantic claim over him. Later scenes showed Harrison taking Toni to the terrace to express his strong feelings for her, which she eventually gave into, choosing her former flame over Cach - the Islander she took back into the villa from Casa Amor.
