In tonight's episode, after choosing to sleep outside, Harry returns to the villa and sits down with Shakira to discuss where they stand.
They both express their strong feelings for each other, despite Harry's romance with Helena only just coming to an end.
As Harry tells Shakira he'd "buried his feelings" for her, Helena can be seen coming up the stairs.
They continue to chat but soon both fall silent as Helena walks through the room they are in, to grab a head band.
She soon runs back down the stairs and Shakira then says: "I do feel really bad for her."
Meanwhile, Helena jumps into bed with Conor to discuss what she's just seen.
The sad Love Islander explains: "They're both in the upstairs lounge talking.
"Me and him are coupled up and exclusive right now, it's actually mental."
During the conversation, Harry tells her: 'I have really tried with her [Helena], but we had like a week and it was, for me, the feelings were obviously way stronger and still are.
Harry and Helena break down in tears as they cut final romantic ties in emotional scenes
"I'm sorry I never like tried again. I really thought the door was just, like, slammed.'
Shakira responds: 'Do you want some home truths… it's obviously the way you go about it and the steps you take in between to come to these conclusions obviously hurt people along the way.
"It's all well and good you saying 'hold my hands up guys, sorry' but you still hurt people. And it's a pattern.'
Harry then makes his intentions clear, saying: 'Look, I'm either leaving here alone or with you.'
Elsewhere, Helena is left heartbroken in Sunday night's episode as things come to an end romantically between her and Harry.
The blonde beauty tells the footballer that he's "broken her heart" before they embrace in the snug and both cry into each other's arms.
Harry admits: 'I didn't, I just buried it all. I just didn't address any of my feelings and we were flying…'
Helena responds emotionally: 'I thought I had something genuine in here.'
Later, Shakira questions Harry's sudden change in behaviour, telling him: 'Like, how you're feeling now is not making sense from what I've seen for the past however many weeks.'
When she asks, 'What are we doing?', Harry simply replies: 'I don't know.'
Amid the chaos, some fans have speculated that Harry and Shakira could well get back together, especially with the impending recouple which will see the boys choose the girl they want to couple up with.

Love Island's India Reynolds reveals she's found love after All Stars with new boyfriend she met on Hinge
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island star India Reynolds has revealed she's found love after after meeting her new man on dating app Hinge. India, 34, took part on All Stars in January but was dumped from the villa after Tina Stinnes stole Scott Thomas from her in the recoupling. 4 India Reynolds has revealed she's found love after All Stars Credit: Instagram 4 The reality star said she met her new man on dating app Hinge Credit: Instagram 4 India was the first Islander to be dumped from the villa on the All Stars series this year Credit: ITV But it looks like her luck is changing after the brunette beauty decided to jump back into the dating pool after the show. India said: "I was in a long-term relationship and then single for three years, I think I got the fear of dating. "You know when you go on those dates on the show, you feel so awkward. "It just put the first date fear of god into me and I didn't date for ages." Appearing on Olivia Attwood's So Wrong It's Right podcast, the host was keen to find out if she was dating again. India shared that she had initially been blocked from the dating app after it was thought her profile was fake. But after the hiccup, India was back on the site and ready to find love. India revealed: "After I came out of this series, the All Stars in January, I was like 'I need to get my act together' because I haven't dated anyone properly in ages, I'm getting older, I want to have kids... get a move on. "I downloaded Hinge and thought this is going to be great for me and then they deleted my profile for impersonation, they thought it was a fake account. "I had to redownload it and I had to send my passport and go through this whole palaver just to go on a first date with someone." Love Island viewers after star makes VERY rude comment about rival's family member She then shared her excitement of her blossoming new romance, saying: "But I finally got it back, went on a first date and the first guy I went on a date with was really nice. Olivia then asked if she was still dating the mystery man and a smitten India confirmed they were an item. It February India posted a dig at show partner Scott Thomas on her page. The model was dumped from the island alongside Marcel Somerville, but had spent the first week getting closer to Scott. However, their potential romance ground to a halt after a brutal game of Truth or Dare. After India declared him the 'most calculated in the villa', shortly after he saw his head turn towards bombshell Tina Stinnes, Scott didn't look too happy. It prompted him to declare: "That's just given me the ick mate. Big." But the swipe against her doesn't seem to have phased India, and in a TikTok in her car she is seen lipsyncing to a trend saying: "Did I say that? Did I? Do you know what, I don't remember saying that." She wrote across the clip: "Scott after calling me an ick." India was previously hailed the "most beautiful" Love Island contestant - before her beauty secrets were revealed. After leaving the villa, India admitted she had her eye on someone else on the show – but didn't make a move because of their age. "I think if Luca was a bit older then maybe Luca," India exclusively told The Sun. India previously took part on Love Island in 2019, during series five. She entered the villa as a bombshell and reached the final with Ovie Soko, finishing in third place, but the pair split four months after.

Simon Cowell 'never been so angry' after treatment on Celebrity SAS show
X Factor star, Lucy Spraggan, has spilled the beans on Simon Cowell's brief cameo on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, which returns to Channel 4 on Sunday Simon Cowell was fuming after his small stint on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins recently, according to the show's new recruit, Lucy Spraggan. The dad-of-one, 65, who walked the X Factor star, 34, down the aisle last year, is not part of the lineup, but pops up in the Channel 4 endurance show when he calls Lucy to try and help motivate her. The singer, who has been close friends with Simon following her harrowing experience on the X Factor in 2012, is reportedly hung up on by the DS (directing staff) when he tries to rally his pal, leaving the media mogul "so angry". Speaking to The Sun, Lucy said: "The DS [directing staff] hung up on him and he was like, 'I've never been so angry'." In the interview, the singer also said the 65-year-old considered appearing on the show himself, but she was worried he'd 'die'. She revealed: "He thought it was a great idea, me doing the show. He knows I love being outdoors. We do a lot of shooting air rifles and stuff together, so he knows this is my thing, testing my mental resilience. "It was just funny because he had said, 'Oh, maybe I'll try and have a go at it'. I was like, 'Simon, you would literally die!'. It was funny because it really contextualised how hard it was that I just straight away said to him, 'You would have no chance.' Lucy bestowed the biggest honour on the media mogul when he walked her down the aisle last year. The former X Factor boss also made a speech at her wedding to the "love of her life" Emilia Smith. And while many fans may be bamboozled at Lucy's close bond with Simon, she's spoken fondly about him and how she knows a "very wholesome version" of the multi-millionaire. Lucy - who is estranged from her biological dad - and Simon were able to build a strong bond over the last four years after he apologised for not supporting her following her harrowing sex attack in 2012 while she was filming The X Factor. At the time, Lucy was only 21 years old and was sexually attacked by a hotel porter named Soby John, who used his hotel key card to enter her room after she had passed out drunk after celebrating Rylan Clark's birthday. But it wasn't until the death of Caroline Flack in 2020, Lucy felt able to speak out about her ordeal. Her attacker was sentenced to 10 years and was deported back to India, after serving three years of his sentence. Lucy now has her sights set on winning Celebrity SAS in which she stars alongside Love Island 's Tasha Ghouri, The Traitors ' Harry Clark, S Club's Hannah Spearritt and former glamour model Rebecca Loos.

How Ruben Dias used secret weapon to win over Maya Jama as pals claim couple are plotting major next move
HER enviable charisma and curves make Maya Jama everyone's type on paper, so winning her affection was arguably tougher than landing the treble for her Manchester City boyfriend, Ruben Dias. But eight months on since they quietly started dating, we can reveal the secret weapon Ruben used to score a future with the Love Island host - and pal's claims that they're planning to take a major step in their relationship. 10 10 Having met months after a failed last-ditch effort with her rapper ex Stormzy, the 30-year-old wasn't looking for love when Ruben asked for her number at the MTV Europe Music Awards in his football team's hometown. It had been Maya and Stormzy's second go at a relationship. They first split after five years together in 2020 not long before Maya got engaged to NBA player Ben Simmons following a whirlwind romance. While both relationships weren't meant to be forever, the experiences helped clarify what the presenter wanted - and didn't want - from her next partner. In the weeks before dating footballer Ruben, Maya said: 'The next person I meet I want to marry and have kids with, so obviously I'm feeling fussy.' Our sources say her surprise connection with 28-year-old Ruben caught Maya by surprise - and his commitment early on in dating secured their fate. Pals claim they're now putting plans in place to move in together as their relationship goes from strength to strength. A source told The Sun: 'Maya is incredibly headstrong and confident. After everything she's been through, she knows her worth and won't settle for anything less. 'Her relationship with Ruben is totally different to when she was with Stormzy. She's described how they were babies when they met and his career was more established than Maya's. 'This time, she's come into the relationship on a level playing field as two hugely successful individuals. 'They've both reached their career goals and the world is their oyster, so they're now at a stage where they can focus more on their love lives. Maya Jama kisses footballer boyfriend on romantic holiday and shows off her stunning bikini body 'It's important to Maya that she can trust the person she's with and they are certain about what they want in their future. "She knows who she is now and is looking for someone on equal pegging to enjoy life with." Our insider added: 'Ruben made sure from the start that his intentions with Maya were clear. 'He knows he's struck gold and wants to make sure Maya knows how seriously he feels about her. 10 10 "Being honest and open about what he wants from their future was the secret weapon in securing a future with Maya. "Maya's work, home and friends are in London so she doesn't want to leave there entirely, but is considering going between there and Manchester." Ruben was previously linked to Love Island All Stars' Arabella Chi in the months before setting eyes on Maya Just like his relationships with pop singer April Ivy and actress Daniela Melchior, both from Portugal, their lifestyle differences drove them apart. While the women were happy with the spotlight, Ruben has always preferred a private life. After swapping numbers with Bristol-born Maya, he soon made clear he was looking for something serious away from the cameras. 'This was a real turning point for Maya.' our source added. 'She was impressed that he wasn't looking to gain from their popularity as a couple. He made her feel it was a genuine connection from the off. 'Even though they know their romance is bound to attract attention, they keep the details of their relationship strictly confidential, but he's been keen to post pictures of them together to let everyone know he's taken. 'He's obviously attracted to successful and powerful women. He loves how Maya lights up every room she's in and shines as an individual, but it was also important to him that they are a strong team together. "That was very attractive to Maya." Ruben's desire in a partner matches that of Maya who had a lightbulb moment following the end of her engagement to Australian basketballer Ben and the break-up of her five-year relationship with Stormzy the first time around. 'I refuse to dim myself down," she said at the time. It's a life lesson she has lived by, revealing: 'I'm such a lover, but I am a big leaver as well. 'I know what makes me happy and I know what I like — and this is no disrespect to anyone I've been in a relationship with, but if it's not that then I will leave it. 'My point I always try to make is that I am really, really happy and I have curated this lovely little life for myself and my friends. 'I only want you if you are going to add to that or make it better, otherwise I am not really on it.' 10 Maya's presenting career soared in 2023 when she landed the hosting job on Love Island, after years of being known as Stormzy's girlfriend. In the same year, Ruben made history with his Manchester City teammates when they won the Premier league, FA Cup, and Champions League within a week of each other. The rare feat was a career highlight for the Portuguese national player, who returned to training at City Football Academy this week after spending the summer with Maya. The smitten pair travelled to Italy's Amalfi Coast in a private jet where they sailed on a luxury yacht as they soaked up the sun. It was during this extended break when Maya and Ruben made their relationship official to fans by posting pictures of them together on social media for the first time. In her most recent Instagram post, Maya shared snaps from her holidays with Ruben and filming the latest series of Love Island, captioning it: "Work & play balancing." They've come a long way in the last few months, with Maya having reportedly met Dias's family. She's even started taking Portuguese lessons to impress her other half. A friend said: "It's the happiest we've ever seen Maya. Her career and relationship are both going from strength to strength and she deserves it all."
