Both Toni Laites and Harrison Solomon chose to recouple when they came back from Casa Amor.
After the infamous ITV2 movie night twist, Toni admitted that she felt "exposed" when a clip played where she admitted to still liking Harrison.
She also admitted that she was "happier" with Harrison than she was with Cacherel 'Cach' Mercer.
However, Harrison admitted that he still had feelings for Toni behind the back of his new partner Lauren Wood.
Later on Love Island, the footballer asked Toni to meet him on the terrace.
He secretly snuck up to the balcony as he first crouched down behind the barrier to avoid being seen.
When Toni arrived, she also crouched down and was seen to have crawled to her former couple partner.
Together, the duo sat on the floor as Harrison lavished her with compliments.
He said: "Your eyes look very good tonight."
This was before he laid on the flirt factor as he asked: "Would it be bad if I kissed you right now?"

They carried on their conversation when he asked Toni what to do about the situation.
Toni seemed determined to win him back as she declared that he should "get rid" of Lauren.
He questioned if they were back together, to which she replied: "Yes."
Viewers rushed to social media as they noticed the parallels between Toni and Ekin-Su, who famously also crawled across the terrace.
Writing on X - formerly known as Twitter - one fan wrote: "This terrace crawl is nothing like the Ekin-Su terrace crawl."
A second stated: "Does Toni think she's Ekin Su sneaking around on the terrace like this?"
While a third noted: "The Terrace crawl is back."
"We're never escaping these terrace crawlers I swear. Ekin really started a revolution with this", commented someone else.
And a fifth added: "This terrace thing is Ekin Su's fault."

Love Island lines up gorgeous professional footballer to 'create maximum drama' as bombshell in fallout from Movie Night bloodbath
Love Island bosses are lining up a professional footballer as a bombshell in a bid to create 'the maximum drama'. Fans of the ITV dating show have watched as Casa Amor left the TV villa reeling and couples on the rocks. However, producers are reportedly set to up the ante even more with the arrival of a gorgeous new Islander. A show insider has said footballer Catarina Pita is in talks to appear on the show with bosses said to think she'll be a 'game-changer' for this year's series. The source told The Sun: 'Cat has been busy in pre-season training but is on ITV2's list as a late bombshell. 'As always, cast are pulled in to suit storylines to create maximum drama. 'Bosses loved the idea of having a female footballer on the show during the Women's Euros.' After Casa Amor brought unmissable drama to the Love Island villa, the show's fan-favourite Movie Night also caused a stir. Even Maya Jama has been getting in on the drama - leaving fans open-mouthed after letting rip at Harry, Helena and Ben for their 'embarrassing' behaviour. Maya's no-nonsense responses to the islanders went down a hit with viewers, who branded her the 'best' host for the show. However, during last night's Love Island Aftersun, she revealed not all her remarks are included in the final cut of the episode. She made the confession as panelist Sam Thompson praised her for speaking up at the firepit. He said: 'You smashed it with Ben by the way, yeah, you nailed that.' She then replied: 'Thank you, but you do have to remember we film for a long time, I do always speak, it just doesn't always get involved.' The footballer has also models part-time and has built a social media platform to promote her work Keen to move on with the chat, Maya added: 'But there you got, my two pence.' Harry and Helena had been reunited during Wednesday's episode when he surprisingly returned from Casa single, despite exploring a connection with bombshell Rheo Parnell. Rheo spilled the tea during the recoupling, letting the islanders know there were 'kisses in bed, cuddles and all sorts' between her and Harry. Andrada Pop then pointed out that Harry admitted he 'didn't miss' his couple during Casa, which prompted a rather unbothered response from the semi-professional footballer and Helena, who burst into laughter. Maya then hit-back at their reaction, saying: 'I don't know, I probably wouldn't find it that funny if I was in a couple with someone like that.' Unfortunately, host Maya Jama has fueled rumours she will quit as host at the end of this series as she has quit its spin-off show. The presenter and DJ, 30, hosted the very first series of Love Island Games in 2023 - a brand new sister show to the regular version. It saw nine former stars from the UK edition fly out to Fiji to compete with international Islanders, though the aim was still to find love. Bosses have confirmed the format will return for a second series, but without Maya at the helm. They confirmed Ariana Madix, who became the host of Love Island USA last year, will take her place as presenter. Ariana, 40, previously stepped in to anchor the show for Maya on two occasions during the first series.

Love Island Australia star reveals she's been left 'fighting for her life' during horror pregnancy - just months after announcing engagement
Phoebe Thompson has shared that she is pregnant - but it hasn't been a joyful experience. The Love Island Australia star revealed she is expecting in an Instagram post on Monday, but explained that she has been struggling with hyperemesis gravidarum and prenatal depression. 'I was fighting for my life in the first trimester,' the 34-year-old wrote in her caption. 'A year ago I was manifesting my dream life and God delivered. I was blessed with a healthy baby but also a pregnancy that would test every part of me.' Phoebe explained that she did not want to 'sugarcoat' her experience. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in th loop. 'For many women, pregnancy isn't all glow and rainbows,' she wrote. 'It can feel like 10 months of Survivor: Vomiting, gagging, nutrient-depleted, mentally broken over the toilet bowl at 3am.' The reality star added: 'The past few months have humbled me in ways I didn't know possible. I've felt excited, scared, grateful, lost and helpless all at once. 'It wasn't morning sickness - it was all day and night.' The television personality went on to describe her crippling prenatal depression - a condition she did not understand before she experienced it. 'I didn't recognise myself. I thought I'd be one of those active, glowing, strong mamas-to-be. Instead, I was bedridden and broken,' she wrote. 'Why couldn't I embrace the miracle? I carried guilt for not loving pregnancy. I questioned my worth, my strength, my ability to be a mum.' Phoebe revealed she is now in her third trimester and doing better, however has continued to face physical challenges. The television personality went on to describe her crippling prenatal depression - a condition she did not understand before she experienced it 'Watching my body change, expand, not fitting any clothes, it's been a mental trip on a bumpy road,' she said. 'Pregnancy, birth and motherhood is a spiritual initiation. It will crack you open. And no one will fully understand that transformation unless they've lived it.' Up to three per cent of women suffer from hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), a debilitating form of sickness during pregnancy. It can cause sickness dozens of times a day with some women ending up hospitalised with severe dehydration. Perinatal depression includes that which occurs during pregnancy, classified as prenatal or antepartum depression, as well as depression that persists after birth, postnatal depression. Symptoms of perinatal depression include sadness, anxiety, feelings of hopelessness, irritability, loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies, feelings of worthlessness, appetite changes, physical pain that does not subside with treatment and extreme fatigue that makes it difficult to carry out everyday tasks. In January, Phoebe announced her engagement to her secret boyfriend. She shared the exciting news on Instagram alongside a rare photo with her beau as they posed in a bizarre naked photoshoot. The intimate image saw the loved-up couple lying in bed together nude while wrapped in a white sheet. Phoebe also shared another image while holding her hand towards the camera to reveal her huge diamond ring. She simply captioned the post with a ring emoji. Many of Phoebe's followers flocked to the comments to congratulate the couple on their engagement. 'So happy for you,' one person wrote, while another added: 'Congratulations!!! So stunning!!' 'Congratulations to the luckiest man in the world - the guy who gave you that ring,' a third said. Phoebe is perhaps best known for coupling up with another woman on season two of Love Island Australia in 2019. It was the first same-sex couple in the franchise's history. Phoebe has since embarked on a career as an adult model, launching her own subscription-based adult website. Her site contains nude photos and videos, which are available to paying subscribers. In March 2022, Phoebe came under fire for asking people to subscribe to her website so she could donate money to Queenslanders affected by the floods.

Ruben Dias and Maya Jama take their romance to next level with big admission
After a few month of dating Maya Jama, it appears Ruben Dias has dropped the 'L bomb' as her showed off his summer so far with a collection of snaps on social media Smitten Ruben Dias has dropped a huge hint that it's love already between him and Maya Jama. The Love Island host, 30, made things official with the Manchester City star, 28, during a sun-soaked trip to the Amalfi Coast just days before her return to ITV2 for the new series of the dating show on June 9. Things seem to be moving a quite a pace if the centre-back's remarks are anything to go by. The footballer took to social media to show off his summer so far. With snaps of holidays, animals, photo shoots and of course his girlfriend, the telling description told fans all they need to know. 'Sun, love, crocodiles, some fits and one advice,' he captioned the fun-filled collection. Maya was quick to notice, a responded with a series of love heart and fire emoji. Her fans noted the response, and one told the television presenter: "you two! Love to see my girl so happy!" It's a sure sign that things are ramping up between the couple after a number of lavish trips together. Maya and Ruben are believed to have first met at the European Music Awards (EMAs) in Manchester in November 2024. After the event, they followed each other on Instagram. By the end of the year, the pair were reportedly spotted ringing in New Year 's Eve together. Things only escalated from there, as Maya was seen attending one of Ruben's football matches in Portugal in March 2025. A month later, the pair were photographed kissing and cuddling at KSI's Baller League football event at London's Copper Box Arena - and it was only just getting started. According to reports, the relationship has become more serious in recent weeks. Maya is said to have introduced Ruben to her mum, Bernadette, and has been making an effort to learn her partner's native language by taking Portuguese lessons. Dias joined Manchester City in 2020 for a reported £57 million, and is one of the most respected defenders in the world. Before dating Maya he was in a relationship with Portuguese singer April Ivy, and has also previously been linked to former Love Island contestant Arabella Chi. Maya's love life has been in the spotlight ever since she dated Stormzy. The couple split up in 2019, which the rapper later called his "biggest regret", and they reunited in 2023 to give things another try. However, they broke up again for good last summer, citing differences in what they wanted from their lives and for the future. In an interview with the Evening Standard last November, which is around the time she met Ruben, Maya opened up about what she is currently looking for from a relationship. She shared: "'I am so happy right now but the next person I meet I want to marry and have kids with, so obviously I'm feeling fussy. "I've created such a nice life for myself alone and I don't want anyone who's not going to add to that. I'm in this lovely bubble and I don't want you unless you make me happy. If you're not, I kind of don't need you." Maya had quite the weekend, jetting to America after seeing Iga Swiatek make history with her 6-0, 6-0 demolition of Amanda Anisimova in 57 minutes at Wimbledon. Ruben has a few more weeks before he is due to return to pre-season, with City having a very different summer having participated in the FIFA Club World Cup. They can unwind with the squad not reporting for duty until the end of July as they gear up for the Premier League season.
