Love Island: Maya Jama returns to the villa as viewers 'figure out' major twist

Bristol's Maya Jama announced on Sunday night (January 29) that she will be back on our screens this week, and viewers have already sussed out there will be a shake up in the Love Island villa. The star revealed in on the spin-off ITV2 series Aftersun that she was about to bring "moves" and "drama" to the villa as she heads back to South Africa for filming.

Fan's of the ITV2 dating show were quick to point out that the host usually heads in when something huge is about to happen, from dumpings to Casa Amor. Maya teased what was in store as she shared the news with viewers on Sunday night, revealing it was going to be huge, reports Mirror Online.

Joking she had received a famous Love Island text, she read out: "Maya, pack your bags, you’re departing for South Africa - things are about to get spicy. Hashtag Maya’s making moves, hashtag Jama's bringing drama."

The Mirror reports that viewers watching immediately got excited, believing it meant a massive twist for the contestants. Taking to Twiter, eagle-eyed cviewers shared their theories about Maya's return and what it could mean for the winter Love Island cast.

Another shared: "I hope maya having to go back to South Africa is for casa amor tbh these couples are all over the place." A third fan wrote: "MAYA IS GOING BACK TO THE VILLA THIS WEEK," as a fourth echoed this saying: "Maya is coming, what drama are they gonna stir up for them all."
