Irish Love Island contestant Martin leaves viewers in stitches with reaction during Movie Night

Love Island viewers were left in fits of laughter at Martin Akinola's reaction to his time with Tanya Manhenga in Casa Amor being shown on the big screen.

The contestants attended the infamous Movie Night towards the end of Wednesday’s episode.

The girls' team and boys' team were tasked with answering questions to be able to pick which clip they wanted to watch.

The boys won the next question and opted for 'Catch Me If You Tan' which showed the clip of Tanya talking to Martin about Shaq and getting cosy to him, then later kissing him in bed.

Dubliner Martin and Tanya struck up a romance and she recoupled during the show's ultimate relationship test.

She returned to the main villa and patched things up with partner Shaq Muhammad.

The video, shown to islanders on Wednesday's show, showed Tanya telling the girls she could get the ick from Shaq.

As Tanya and Shaq exchanged heated words after the clip came to an end, with Shaq fuming that Tanya told him her and Martin's kiss was 'just a peck', Martin could be seen at the table loving the drama and tucking into popcorn.

Snacking on popcorn with a cheeky smile on his face, Martin was enjoying seeing things kick off - as Shaq and Tanya continued to butt heads over the clip of Tanya kissing Martin in bed.

Earlier this week, Tanya announced to all the islanders that she was still in love with Shaq.

After her declaration, Martin then branded her 'a liar', saying that she made him look like an ‘idiot'. But now it seems that Martin is getting his own back as the drama unfolds around him.

Fans went wild and took to Twitter reacting to Martin.

One viewer said: "Nah Martin actually KILLS me#loveisland."

"I think Martin needs to win this season tbf #loveisland."

Movie Night will continue into Thursday's episode and judging by the teaser, it is guaranteed to be packed with drama. Love Island continues tonight on Virgin Media One at 9pm and Virgin Media player.
