Get ready to bid farewell to the "least compatible" couple on tonight's episode, as Love Island's First Look teases yet another dramatic dumping, but not before Tanya confronts Shaq over his comments to Ron (here's how to watch Love Island UK if you need to catch up)...

In case you missed what happened on Love Island last night, the boys cooked a romantic three-course meal for the girls, after they bid farewell to Tanyel—but the kitchen was not without its tensions.

After discussing the apparent "divide" between the boys, tempers flared as Shaq confronted Ron—in front of Lana and Tanya—for not helping him and the other boys do the washing up. This did not seemingly go down well with the girls, as it's clear the rift between the boys is growing...

Now on tonight's episode, it looks like we'll see Tanya and Shaq talk about what went down before the couple, voted the least compatibility by viewers, is sent packing.

Here's a full debrief of what's in store for us tonight as the show returns for its second episode on ITV2 and ITVX. Grab your Love Island water bottles people, we could be in for a wild ride...

'Love Island' First Look today: what will we see on tonight's episode?

Tonight's episode will see Tanya and Lana confront Shaq for the way he spoke to Ron—for not assisting the boys with the cleanup from the villa meal. This seems to spark even further tension between Tanya and Shaq as he says that he felt "cornered" by their chat, citing that he would never have done that to her if roles were reversed.

It's clear we've not seen the last of this "divide" between the boys, as First Look does not show any sort of makeup between Ron and the boys...

The teaser does however show the islanders gathering around the firepit in their couples, where we'll find out the results of the public vote-off—though don't be surprised if it ends on a cliffhanger!

Aside from all the drama, we'll probably also see Casey and new girl Claudia get even closer, after their lil' kiss in last night's episode!

Gear up for a tension-filled Friday night, Love Island fans!
