Love Island fans in hysterics as they notice 'bunny boiler' Zara's 'scary' villa habit

Love Island fans have joked they are fearful of Zara Lackenby-Brown after the Islander was left with her back up when Olivia Hawkins set her eyes on Tom Clare.

The shift came after Haris Namani, who Olivia was coupled up with, became one of the two contestants to leave the villa in a double dumping at the start of the show.

The ITV2 reality dating show returned with another explosive episode this week as the winter series gets well underway in sunny South Africa.

Love Island has seen multiple feuds erupt in the past days as the Islanders mark a week since they walked into the South African villa – including between Zara and Olivia.

The pair could again clash as they continue to battle it out over the semi-professional footballer, who is currently coupled up with Zara.

As Olivia made her feelings for Tom again known, Zara was seen repeatedly cuddling with Tom as she wrapped her arms around him.

The scenes left many fans in hysterics, as one took to Twitter writing: “Zara is clinging onto Tom for dear life,” as another joked: “Why’s Zara always restraining him in some way.”

A third added: “Zara gives me bunny boiler vibes…” as another wrote: “Zara is scaring me I cannot lie.”

“See the way Zara is claiming her man. Hands all up on him,” one penned.

Another wrote: “These Love Island couples are giving me ‘couples that hold onto each other in theme park lines like it’s the last time they’ll ever see one another’ vibes.”

Zara has already been embroiled in her fair share of drama already in this series, most of which has involved Olivia.

This series has seen the pair clash as Zara, 25, branded Olivia, 27, "two faced" in a game of beer pong before Zara recoupled with Tom – who Olivia was paired up with.

As the bubbling feud was aired on the ITV2 dating show, fans have spotted that Zara and Olivia know one another outside the villa – with fans spotting the pair have left comments under one another's Instagram posts.

But, a solid connection between the pair hadn't been made until Love Island fans turned into detectives and dug through the internet to uncover that the pair had in fact appeared in the same music video together.

The music video for rapper Dapz's song Take You Away sees both Zara and Olivia make appearances.

Love Island airs every night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
