Love Island returns to our television screens later and so does the drama as tensions rise within the villa once again, especially between Ron and Lana. It comes after he appeared to admit to having a 'game plan' for the ITV2 dating programme.
Following the Islanders winning a party in the ‘A Couple of Sorts’ challenge, Ron wants to speak to Shaq. During the challenge, Shaq queried whether Ron only made Lana his girlfriend because everyone likes her.
Ron says to him: “I just wanted to see your thoughts on it or whether you thought there was anything to it or if it was just an opinion on the challenge?” Shaq tells him: “For me bro, it’s a challenge and I said before I even made the comment that I would see how it looks from every single side.”

Ron replies: “I’m not calling you out on it, obviously it’s sore for me and Lana, and I’d hate it to plant a seed in Lana’s head.” Later, still discussing the challenge, and accusations of game playing.
Ron tells Sanam, Kai, Tom and Samie at the mini fire pit: “When I was a viewer, I thought, the ones who have their drama nice and early and then get comfy and treat it like a holiday, They’re the ones who are probably like, they just cruise.

“I can see why people probably thought, ‘Oh Lana and Ron are just cruising through.’ I’m not bothered by any of that. As I know I’m not, otherwise I never would have made her my girlfriend, it means too much to me.”
Elsewhere, Rosie questions whether or not her relationship with Casey really is one-sided, as was also suggested in the challenge. Ron and Lana offer her some advice on the situation. The following day, Tom updates some of the other Islanders on what was said by Ron.
Lana has since learned from Samie how Ron’s conversation at the mini fire pit has been perceived by the other Islanders. She tells him: “Everyone has taken that as a game plan.” Ron says: “I’m not having people say that they think I’m playing a game…”
