It was the baby challenge on Love Island tonight with the villa full of the cries of fake babies as the couples are tasked with looking after them once more. Many viewers were not happy to see the return of the yearly challenge, and for one couple a joke about their baby went down like a led balloon.
Viewers saw Tanya make a 'joke' about Shaq possibly not being the 'father' of the baby and his reaction prompted them to say he needs to "chill out".
Shaq, who is coupled up with Tanya, have had a very rocky ride in the villa with Tanya bringing back a different man, Martin, from Casa Amor, arguments about if their feelings are real and often being voted one of the least popular couples by the public. Now Shaq is offended again as Tanya joked he might not be the father of the baby.
While changing their baby's nappy Shaq and Tanya noticed the fake baby had a very different belly button to both of them, causing Tanya to joke: "Are you the dad?" While Tanya laughed Shaq did not react to the joke well, he said: "That is not funny. That is not funny...haha good joke, it is hilarious...am I the dad? What kind of joke is that?"

After Shaq's sour reaction, Tanya apologised for the joke but many viewers thought Shaq was overreacting and told him to "chill out". One said: "Shaq has no bants #loveisland" and: "Shaq have a laugh" followed by two crying emojis.
A third said: "Tanya can’t even make jokes without shaq crying lmao #loveisland" and another said: "LOOOL NO WAY HE IS UPSET OVER THE JOKE #LoveIsland". A fifth said: "Shaq does need to chill out really, it’s a plastic doll. Martin isn’t the dad like, it was a funny joke #loveisland".
Love Island continues Thursday, March 9, on ITV2 and ITVX.
