Love Island viewers react as Shaq irons Tanya's dress while she buzzes over Casa Amor

Love Island has seen the return of the ultimate relationship test Casa Amor, as the girls head off to the new villa with a slew of brand-new sexy singletons.

On Sunday night viewers saw Tanya Manhenga and Shaq Muhammad resolve their tiff, after the 23-year-old beauty compared her new beau to her ex. The couple had previously been going from strength to strength inside the South African villa, becoming the first couple to have sex and tell each other they loved one another.

Shaq confided in footballer Tom Clare, who is currently coupled up with Samie Elishi, about the situation with Tanya. He said: “When someone that you’re seeing and supposed to be in love with says that little things in you remind them of their ex, that for me is such a huge statement to say."

He continued: "I’m not going to go into something with someone that thinks I have negative similarities to an ex.”

Tom reassures Shaq saying: “You will work things out.” Shaq continues: “At this point, the way I feel about the situation, I need to sleep on it and think about it.”

After that conversation, the two managed to squash the issue but Tanya confided in the girls that she didn't feel like she was being heard in the relationship. As the girls were getting ready, Samie got a text telling the group to pack up the essentials as they were heading off to Casa Amor.

Tanya couldn't contain her excitement about the announcement, as she danced and twerked in the dressing room. While the camera panned to the boys in the bedroom getting dressed, viewers noticed Shaq was dutifully ironing Tanya's dress for her while she buzzed over the new boys.

Love Island fans think this could spell the end for Tanya and Shaq following her reaction, as well as their recent tiff and took to Twitter as the show aired. One wrote: "Shaq ironing Tanya’s clothes while she’s over here twerking about Casa Amor."

"Look at Tanya’s energy loool Shaq stepped up for her at the beginning due to sympathy now look at him. Left ironing her clothes while she sneaks off #loveIsland," penned another. A third tweeted: "Shaq is ironing Tanya's dress #LoveIsland".

Someone else wrote: "Claudia - “It’s too soon” Tanya - “NO ITS F****** NOT” I’m dying #loveisland," while another echoed: "Them leaving whilst Shaq is ironing her clothes is sad".

"Not Shaq ironing Tanya’s clothes whilst she’s off raving about casa amor," another viewer wrote. Someone else tweeted: "TANYA IS GONEEE. SHE’S RUNNING, SHE’S SPRINTING. And this guy is here ironing her clothes".

"Shaq’s ironing Tanya’s dress while she’s twerking and getting excited about meeting other guys #loveisland," penned another, while someone else wrote: "yh it’s wraps for shaq & tanya. y’all see how she’s twerking #LoveIsland".

Another tweeted: "Tanya’s excitement is killinggg me LOOOL #LoveIsland".

In the preview for Monday nights episode, it was revealed the boys would be joined in the main villa by six new girls tomorrow including Glasgow's own Lydia Karakyriakou.

Lydia will be joining the likes of Layla Al-Momani, 28, Sammy James, 27, Cynthia Otseh-Taiwo, 25, Sanam Harrinanan, 24, and Lynda Flix, 22. The new group of sexy singletons will be hoping to impress the boys in the main villa, Will, Shaq, Tom, Kai, Ron and Casey.
