Love Island's Toni leaves Lauren in tears as she sneaks off to the terrace with Harrison (and recreates Ekin-Su's iconic crawl) before demanding 'get rid of her' in drama-packed episode
Toni Laites and Harrison Solomon left Lauren Wood in tears during Sunday night's show as they sneaked off to the terrace for a secret rendezvous.
In true Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu style, Toni and Harrison recreated the Love Island alum's iconic terrace crawl to remain out of sight from the rest of the villa.
Harrison and Toni look set to rekindle their connection despite him returning from Casa Amor coupled up with Lauren.
During their chat on the terrace, Toni demanded 'get rid of her' after Harrison confessed he wanted to kiss her behind Lauren's back.
It was all while Lauren remained unaware of their unfinished business as she sat metres away crying while confiding in her fellow islanders.
While on the villa stairs after getting ready for the night, Harrison whispered to Toni: 'After you get a drink, do you want to meet me? Terrace?'

Crouching down to avoid being seen, Harrison said: 'We have to sit on the floor. Otherwise they're going to see… I don't want them to see.'
The conversation continued to get spicier as the two flirtatiously locked eyes, as Harrison said: 'Would it be bad if I kissed you right now?'
Harrison and Toni's behaviour has sparked somewhat fury among fans.
Fans took to X and wrote: 'Nah Toni needs to get voted off for that. Lost all the ratings I had for her',
'Oh god this girls has disappointed me', 'Damn Toni moving like a snake', 'Nooo wayyy',
'Toni joining Love Island legends Mimii & Ekin-Su as a terrace crawler wasn't on my bingo card'.
In 2022, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu took drastic measures to bond investment analyst, Jay Younger as she crawled on to the terrace twice in a bid to have a private chat with him.
In the raunchy scenes, Ekin-su asked Jay to sneak off for a 'secret' chat, which saw them talking in whispers away from the other Islanders.

Harrison and Toni's behaviour has sparked somewhat fury among fans as he continues to go back and fourth between bombshells
Ekin-Su performed the cheeky feat twice during the 2022 series
Ekin-Su asked to 'borrow' Jay while he was chatting outside with Ikenna Ekwonna and asked him to meet her on the terrace in 'three or four minutes' so they could talk on a 'more secret level'.
After Jay agreed to the sneaky rendezvous, Ekin-Su was seen crouching on the floor as she opened the door to the terrace from the girls' dressing room.
She then began crawling across the floor in a bid to stay hidden from the other Islanders, who were chatting in the garden below.
As she sat concealed by the wall, she said: 'I can't believe I'm here.'
Jay then excused himself from a chat with the other boys to 'go to the bathroom' before heading up to the terrace to meet her.
As he walked up the stairs, Ekin-Su's current partner Davide asked where she was, before adding: 'I think he will try to kiss her.'
But Paige Thorne disagreed and insisted that she thought there was 'no way' that Jay would make a move on Ekin-Su.
When Jay opened the door to the terrace, Ekin-Su told him to 'whisper' and 'kneel down', adding: 'Don't let them see you!'
To which Jay jokingly replied: 'What it is, Mission Impossible?'
This was later exposed in the season which ignited a huge argument between the two.
