One of the biggest events in the TV calendar took place last night (June 4) when the first episode of Love Island aired.
But the series has already come under fire after one of its own former contestants dubbed it "cruel".
At the end of the episode, two men joined the islanders and the contestants were told two of the current boys would be 'at risk' of elimination within 24 hours.
And Marcel Somerville, who starred in the 2017 series, criticised the twist, reports Manchester Evening News.
The former Blazin Squad singer said it was cruel to throw Curtis Pritchard and Tommy Fury into the villa at such an early stage.
The five boys and five girls had already paired up when the two boy bombshells marched into the luxury with one aim - to steal girls and leave two other boys facing being dumped.
Marcel, 33, believes that producers are wrong to potentially axe two contestants so early.
He told The Sun: "Potentially two of them this year will be going home from the get-go, which is a cruel thing to do.
"When I was there we had two days in the villa before a new arrival.”
This follows his frustration over the first coupling, during which he said he was having “flashbacks” to his own, which saw him picked last.
He said: “This is mad!!!! #LoveIsland flash backs! Black guy, black girl and mixed race guy all left unpicked. Mad!!!”
During Marcel’s coupling, no girl stood forward for him, in the same way no one did for Sherif Lanre.
Liverpudlian firefighter Michael Griffiths was banished to the subs bench before being paired with Yewande Biala, who was also not picked.
There are personalised Love Island water bottles available to buy - this is how.
