Love Island fans have been left baffled after Uma broke down in tears in Tuesday’s episode, after Mimii chose to recouple with Ayo.
Monday’s episode saw a dramatic twist, with Mimii, 24, and new bombshell Omar, 25, given the power to break up another couple to steal someone for themselves.
The mental health nurse and PE teacher had been in danger of getting the boot after finding themselves single, before a surprise text changed everything.
In the twist which fans branded ‘messy’ the duo were given the option of choosing to couple up together or pick someone else to steal.
Mimii and Omar went to discuss their options and despite some flirtations, she seemingly still had her heart set on Ayo, 25, who was stolen in the latest recoupling by Uma, 23.
They ultimately decided that they would both choose another Islander, with Mimii picking Ayo and Omar choosing Uma – who had been a couple.
The decision left Uma furious and she promptly stormed off, before later breaking down in tears.
But viewers at home couldn’t help but question her strong emotional reaction, pointing out that she had chosen to couple up with Ayo previously, despite his connection with Mimii.
And many praised Mimii for following her heart, while arguing her and Omar’s decision had ensured that no one was dumped.
While others urged both girls to see that Ayo was playing them by stringing them both along and declared they deserved better.
They wrote: ‘Mimi decided to steal Ayo. Yes, girl take your man back. It’s better to try to explore the feeling to know what you feel than never!; Lol Uma is vexed, Ayo looks pissed!! I’m here for the drama’.
‘Uma you thiefed this girls man first????? What’s actually going on; uma storming off as if she didn’t do the exact same thing to mimii’.
‘Ayo doing the typical player thing. Looking for the one he can’t have. Loser. I like Mimi but not liking Ayo for her; Mimi I am BEGGING you to stand up! That Ayo fella is playing you for a mug!’
‘Uma crying cuz of Ayo? Like girl you literally stole her man and now acting like she stole your man. Like what????; Uma being upset when she did the exact same thing?’
‘i hate watching pretty women down bad for a man who doesn’t even care about them; Uma is fuminggghhggg’.
‘Mimii just said to Uma you’ll lose Ayo the same way you got him; i’ve never seen such a delusional set of girls in my life…. it really is the blind leading the blind ffs’.
‘No but I think Omar and Mimi made a good choice. This way no one is single and no one is going home; I think Omar and Mimi didn’t want any person to go home… so just stealing Ayo and Umar is a win win situation…. No one goes home’.
Elsewhere in the episode, Harriett voiced that she felt Ronnie was starting to give her ‘mixed signals’, after they shared a raunchy snog in the hideaway on Monday night.
In recent episodes, Ronnie and Harriett have struck up a romance after noticing their ‘strong sexual chemistry’, which has left Jess, who he is coupled up with, blindsided.
And in Tuesday’s episode, Harriett turned to Patsy for some advice as she’s confused about his true intentions.
Confiding in Patsy, Harriett said: ‘He’s half coupled up with me, half coupled up with Jess.
‘He’s taken me to the Hideaway… why has he done all of this stuff if he is not decided? You don’t say to someone you are thinking of them in bed all night. Why is he doing all of this?’
After their conversation, Harriett was faced with a predicament on whether to go with her ‘head or heart’, after Jess told her that she kissed Ronnie in bed – despite him saying he’s been thinking about Harriet the whole night.
She said: ‘My heart is telling me to go for Ronnie but my head is saying don’t.’
