Love Island viewers think they have "rumbled" new bombshell Ella Barnes' "game plan" after she picked Mitchel Taylor during Friday night's explosive recoupling.
During the latest episode, Mitchel, 26, had been paired with Abi Moores but was stolen by new bombshell Ella, 23, after some serious flirting between the two.
Prior to this, the villa was rocked by an unexpected text message as all the Islanders were asked to gather around the fire pit immediately.
The message read: "Ella B and Josh as you are both single it is time for you to steal an Islander of your choice. You get to choose one boy and one girl to couple up with."
To which Ella then picked Mitchel, leaving his former partner Abi seriously unimpressed.
While fellow new bombshell, Josh Brocklebank, picked Jess Harding, which left her partner Sammy Root furious.
Viewers had been expecting Ella to pick Tyrique Hyde thanks to their "history" before the villa.
However, some fans think they have "rumbled" new Ella's game plan and that she picked Mitchel but will actually go after former love interest Tyrique.
Taking to Twitter, one person said: "we all know new ella doesn’t want mitch. she only wants ty #LoveIsland."
A different account put: "New Ella don’t even like Mitch He gives her the ick She wants Ty."
Another viewer tweeted: "Wouldn't be surprised if she's trying to make Ty jealous… #LoveIsland."
While a different show watcher added: "New Ella is using mitchel to get close to Ty #loveIsland."
Elsewhere during the episode, Ella found herself embroiled in a fiery row with Tyrique's current partner Ella Thomas.
After hearing new Ella's remark about the "battle of the Ellas", Ella T decided to have a word.
Keen to set the record straight, she said: "First of all…do you babe, I get it, you came in for yourself and you need to talk to everyone…
"But why is my name even in your mouth when you’re talking about yourself…you’re trying to plant doubt in his mind."
To which Ella B replied: "Babe, obviously we are going to chat. I’ve known him for so many years…"
As the conversation continued, Ella T added: "Do you babe, come in on your own energy, you don’t need to mention other Ella, there’s never going to be a battle.
"I would never go head to head with a girl for a man, so the talk of battles is not me…leave it out…"
With Ella B quipping back: "It was a bit of banter…I’m not here for drama…"
Love Island continues every night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
