Former stars of Love Island have claimed producers manipulate the recouplings and keep the boys and girls apart to stop them having chats.
Tonight's episode features a explosive dumping as the girls return from Casa Amor and serious decisions have to be made.
However, it comes as several former contestants have opened up about what really goes on behind the scenes.
Jonny Mitchell, who was in Love Island 2017, claims contestants are pushed in certain directions during recouplings.
He told Closer magazine: "The producers can do whatever they want. They can push you in certain directions and make you do certain things.
"When I was in there, they'd call you out of the villa and they'd sit down with you and go, 'How are you feeling about this girl?'...
"They even push you on who to choose in the recouplings! It's all tactics...
"I think they already have their own agenda and their own idea of who they want to win."
Laura Anderson , who was on the show last year, revealed producers pull the strings and even keep the men and woman apart during dinner so they can't talk.
She said: "There's no script whatsover but the producers come and speak to us, and they know everything that's going on.
They'd watch our reactions - so they'd say, 'How do you feel about that?' And I'd say, 'I really "don't care'.
"But then they'd be like, 'Are you sure you don't care? Because you said this and you looked liked this'...
"We'd get separated a lot.
"We'd be asked to hold off having a conversation until later.
"They'd make the boys sit and have dinner, and the girls sit and have dinner, and ask us to keep our conversations for later when we weren't eating.
"If there were five different conversations, they'd try to limit it to three. And tell us to let others have a chat first. IT was more about timing than control."
Mirror Online has contacted a representative for Love Island for comment.
Love Island airs all week at 9pm on ITV2.
