Love Island's Ellie Spence has hinted that there was a blazing row in the villa which viewers will never get to see after it was left out of the original edit.
The bombshell who entered the villa on day 10 before subsequently being dumped just 16 days later has opened up in a new TikTok video where she shared some behind-the-scenes secrets.
But while shedding light on her experience, Ellie, 25, claims that two Islanders came to blows over a challenge which left one of them in tears.
Ellie claims that several of the female Islanders ended up arguing over Ron after the "Ladiators" challenge.

Addressing her followers on the video-sharing app, the business development executive said: "The producers asked us to deliberate about who was the sexiest dancer and who did the best performance.
"What you didn’t see was the girls immediately started arguing. Tanyel, Lana and Samie were immediately like 'we need Ron to win.'
"And then all of us were like 'ew why would we pick Ron,' and it's not like we were Ron haters but so much had happened at that point and we were sick of Ron and didn't want to reward his behaviour."

Ellie went on to say that the girls became divided as they all liked Ron in the villa.
The Norwich-born star added: "Immediately Olivia was like 'I'm not having it, Casey's over there crying, I'm not picking Ron.'
"Then Tanyel was going back at Olivia about picking Ron and me and Tanya were just standing there.
"We were p***ing ourselves and they were just going back and forth and the producers were like 'stop arguing, stop, stop.'"

Ellie later claimed that the group were told to "hold the chat" at times if they wanted to discuss something so they could film the conversations at a later time.
"So they made them hold the chat because they wanted to put the camera in," she explained.
The star also claimed that Olivia was left upset as she accused Sami of "stealing her friends" following her entrance into the villa.
Ellie's comments come after fellow Islander Anna-May Robey praised the bosses behind the show after she admitted to struggling during her time in the villa.
Speaking on Johnny Seifert's Secure The Insecure Podcast, she said: "To be fair, their production team and they've got welfare in there.
"You know, we've got psychologists that you can speak to, they're all really good when like you're kind of struggling, they're all there for you."
