Worried Love Island fans urge bosses to step in as Shaq cries over Tanya's 'gaslighting'

Love Island fans have been left unimpressed after seeing how Tanya has treated Shaq after returning from Casa Amor earlier this week.

But it all came to blows during the infamous Movie Night episode which saw Shaq break down in tears after video clips of Tanya and Martin getting intimate were shown.

Tanya had previously told airport security officer Shaq that Irish hunk Martin had initiated the kiss but it later emerged that she had gone in for the passionate smooch.

Following the news coming to light, Shaq issued Tanya with an ultimatum as he revealed he no longer believed her after the pair had clashed.

During the most recent episode on Thursday night, footballer Tom Clare walked away from the group and was joined by Shaq who struggled to contain his emotions.

"I'm sick of this," he said before he started to cry on Tom's shoulder leaving viewers at home feeling for him as they flocked to social media to share their thoughts.

One penned: "The producers really need to step in and give Tanya a warning for her blatant gaslighting. If it was the other way round, Shaq would've been gone! #Loveisland."

"@LoveIsland producers! please bring someone in for Shaq I'm begging you. release him from this toxic nonsense," fumed a second.

Before a third went on to say: "All Tanya has done since the beginning is gaslight, manipulate and backstab Shaq. The poor man needs a break #LoveIsland."

"I proper think Shaq loves Tanya. She's done him dirty about 99 times and he always thinks of how they can move forward together. She's always willing to drop him, shout at him, swear, and gaslight him at the drop of a hat #loveisland," tweeted another.

While a fifth went on to say: "I actually can't continue to watch Tanya gaslight Shaq on my screen it actually hurts to watch how much she manipulates him & his genuine feelings #loveisland."

After the male Islanders watched the clip of Tanya snogging Martin, a distraught Shaq fumed across the garden: "So it was just a peck, yeah, and he went to kiss you? So we're lying now?"

But Tanya responded: "If you're looking for something to be angry about, honestly this is not it.

"I'm going to give you time to think about what you saw, I said exactly what happened."

But while Shaq accused Tanya of looking nervous, she fumed: "You was already looking for something to be angry about, I'm not nervous, I'm absolutely fine honey."

However, Martin later confessed: "The way Tanya is portraying it to Shaq is that I was begging her, she has made me look like a d**k head."

Tanya also slammed Shaq to Olivia without knowing that he had been outside sobbing his heart out.
