We\u2019re mid-way through Week 2 of Love Island<\/a>\u2018s 2023 winter season and so far, we\u2019ve seen blazing rows, bombshells and love triangles galore over the past nine episodes.<\/p>\n The week began with Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Olivia Hawkins<\/a> fighting over Tom Clare<\/a> in episode 8<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 and while they\u2019ve settled their differences, it seems as though Olivia isn\u2019t ready to give up on the semi-pro footballer just yet.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Zara has turned her attention to Shaq Muhammad<\/a>, who has been securely coupled up with Tanya Manhenga<\/a> thus far, and viewers were on the edge of their seats after ITV responded to a video resurfacing of Haris Namani punching a man<\/a>.<\/p>\n Catch up on all the drama, gossip and grafting from last night\u2019s episode with our recap video above, and check out\u00a0RadioTimes.com<\/a>\u2018s brand new companion show,\u00a0The Love Island Lowdown<\/a>, for all the latest gossip, behind-the-scenes theories and Week 2 predictions.<\/p>\n The episode began with on-again-off-again couple\u00a0Kai Fagan<\/a> and\u00a0Tanyel Revan<\/a>, with him pulling Tanyel for a chat and telling her that he finds himself being pulled back to her. She revealed that despite coupling up with Ron Hall<\/a>, she still felt the same about Kai.<\/p>\n We then saw Kai break the news to Anna-May Robey<\/a>, who later cried on the shoulder of Will Young<\/a> over the situation.<\/p>\n The next day, Zara took us all by surprise by pulling Shaq for a chat, telling him that she\u2019d like to get to know him \u2013 although the airpot security officer shocked us even more by saying that he was interested! Understandably, Tanya wasn\u2019t best pleased; particularly after the couple had just shared a steamy night in the bed. Could this be the end of #Shanya?<\/p>\n The islanders then headed on their next challenge, Space Raunch, which saw the girls perform a series of saucy tasks with their boy of choice while dressed in NASA gear. Will finally kissed Australian bombshell Jessie Wynter<\/a>, while Olivia swerved Tom and picked Haris Namani<\/a>.<\/p>\n Back at the villa, Tanyel and Kai shared a proper kiss while Will and Jessie finally cracked on, with the farmer yelling: \u201cThe greatest night of my life!\u201d Both equally adorable and unbearably cringe.<\/p> The excitement was short-lived however when the islanders were gathered around the fire pit to hear the results of the latest public vote. After viewers had the chance to pick their favourite boy and girl, the show revealed that six contestants were at risk: Tom, Haris, and Kai from the boys, and Tanya, Tanyel and Anna-May from the girls.<\/p>\n Just as a text shared that Jessie and Aaron Waters<\/a> would be making the decision as to which boy and which girl were leaving, Love Island left us on a cruel cliffhanger. I guess we\u2019ll have to tune in tonight to find out what happens next!<\/p>\n Love Island airs on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm.
