Love Island has aired its latest dumping as Irish contestant Martin Akinola was eliminated from the ITV2 reality show on Friday evening.
The dumping came after a day of high strung emotions in the South African villa, after two new bombshells entered.
The evening started as new bombshell Rosie made a toast and said: “Cheers to double trouble and maybe new chapters.”
As the night rolled on the Islanders received a text, which read: “Islanders, please gather around the fire pit immediately.”
Another message then reached the Islanders as they sat around the fire pit, which read: “Tonight there will be a recoupling in which the girls will pick which boy they would like to couple up with.”
Ultimately, Rosie chose to couple up with Casey while new boy Keanan chose Claudia, splitting the couple apart and leaving Martin as the only Islander not picked.
Martin headed back inside to pack his bags and have one last selfie with the boys, before the Islanders gathered at the door to the palatial pad to say goodbye.
And as Martin bid them a final farewell and headed out with his white monogrammed suitcase, he said one final speech.
"Honestly, I feel like it was a really good experience," he said. "I wouldn't say it was the best experience of my life because it was not.
"But it was up there with the best to be fair. As much as it was a crazy, crazy experience, I will miss it.
"Obviously from day one, I have a lot of love for you lot, even though the situation had to be a bit tough with some of you people.
"Especially Tanya. But you didn't do nothing wrong - well you did something wrong. I'm not going to lie, you did some things that were wrong.
"But I forgive you. I have nothing against you. Have fun guys!"
Martin's close friend and 2023 Love Island finalist Dami Hope tweeted: "Well my boy had a great run, became a hot meme and had a nice holiday. All is well, time to come home now Martin."
Love Island airs every night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
