OG Islanders Shakira Khan and Conor Phillips coupled up after ditching their Casa Amor partners.
But during a game of Couples of Sorts - where the villa cast learned what viewers think of them - drama ensued.
After being selected as part of a "one-sided" couple, footballer Harrison Solomon said: "I think Conor and Shakira should be up here.
"We had a conversation - me, you and H - basically what was said was, you like him more than Ty.
"But I don't think you like Con as much as you like Harry."
As results were being read out for another question, Shakira quipped to Conor: "I'd laugh if this was us now."
After receiving the cold shoulder in return, she swiped: "Oh, he's not laughing, okay."
Following the game, Conor had a chat with fellow villa lads Harrison, Harry and Dejon.
He then pulled Shakira for a chat, where she branded what the boys told him as "b******s".
She added: "It's been twisted. I told you that and you just wanted to believe the boys straight away."
Love Island's Shakira leaves fans stunned as she 'breaks the fourth wall' with surprise comment
Shakira later broke down in tears to her pal Toni, saying: "Why are they trying to create this narrative like I'm obsessed with [Harry]? I don't get it.
"They're all just so fake! I'm surrounded by fake f*****g people who smile in your face and chat s**t about you behind your back."
The next day, Toni gave Harry, Harrison and Dejon a piece of her mind, calling them out for their behaviour.
One viewer penned on X: "Everybody should write to ofcom because the way Shakira Khan has been treated is nasty #LoveIsland."
Another added: "The boys reaction to Shakira being upset is telling everything about them."
A third shared: "Seeing shakira that upset is so heartbreaking #LoveIsland I can't watch these villainous men anymore."
While a fourth remarked: "I'm not joking after this episode, I will write a letter to ofcom about how the islanders are mistreating Shakira."
A fifth chimed in: "ofcom will be hearing from me, these people are bullying shakira."
Although Shakira and Conor made up later in the episode, will their connection last?
Love Island airs on ITV2 and ITVX.

Watch the moment This Morning accidentally reveals Love Island bombshell is returning to the villa live on TV
IN an awkward moment on This Morning, TV presenter Jenni Falconer revealed a Love Island bombshell is returning to the villa. Giorgio Russo was appearing on the show to talk about the success of his Lioness sister Alessia Russo at the Women's World Cup. 5 5 5 He could be seen standing outside Buckingham Palace, and answered various questions about Alessia, as well as his time in Casa Amor on Love Island. The bombshell was part of one of the most savage Casa Amor recouplings the show's seen in years. Gio had been given the greenlight to bring back someone new from his friendship partner Billykiss, but the Italian decided to return alone - as a result, he was dumped from the villa. But now presenter Jenni Falconer revealed he'll be returning, as she asked him about the fact that he's gearing up to fly back to Mallorca. She said: 'I mean it's crazy for you because not only are you coming to be a part of this but then you have to fly back to Mallorca after this." Giorgio was then seen looking awkward as he attempted a response to the statement. Neither confirming nor denying that he was off the villa, the dumped star said: "Yeah I do, yeah, yeah, so, um, it'll be good, we'll see." Jenni told Giorgio how exciting it was that he'd be heading back. It's been seen in many past episodes of Love Island that the dumped Islanders will return to the show, often to give their verdicts on the remaining couples. Viewers don't have long to find who will be crowned the winners of the summer series, as the finale is fast approaching. It will air on Monday, August 4, from 9pm to 10.35pm. This year's series has been nothing short of dramatic, and concerned viewers have tuned in to watch the effects of a love triangle unfold. Footballer Harry Cooksley was seemingly happy and was closed off in an exclusive couple with Helena Ford. Shakira then ended her own partnership with Conor Phillips as she admitted that she had 'suppressed emotions' over Harry. The islanders were then shown a damning clip at the Grafties award ceremony that caused major drama. Harry was spotted to be openly flirting with Shakira and suggested it was a "good idea" that they spend time with each other. He then told Conor that he only felt a 'friendship' connection wirth Helena as he called his bond with Shakira more 'natural'. And recent scenes show that Harry and Shakira's romance is getting back on track as they were spotted intimately snuggling together upstairs. After kissing her cheek Shakira turns to Harry and gives him a look of desire. 5
