When is the first Love Island 2021 elimination as contestant is left single?

Love Island 2021 got off to an explosive start when it aired on ITV2 on Monday night.

The first five couples were just getting to know one another when a text, in the form of a voice note, revealed a new contestant would be making a late appearance.

As it stands the first couples of the series are Jake Cornish and Liberty Poole, Aaron Francis and Shannon Singh, Brad McClelland and Faye Winter, Hugo Hammond and Sharon Gaffka and Toby Aromolaran and Kaz Kamwi.

But the arrival of 25-year-old Chloe Burrows could be about to shake things up, with a reshuffle leaving one of the girls single.

In scenes set to air for tonight, the contestants gather around the fire pit as Chloe prepares to choose the boy she wants to couple up with.

Standing at the fire pit in front of her fellow Islanders, Chloe says: "I would like to couple up with this boy because when I first saw him, I thought he was absolutely gorgeous.

"Even though we haven't really spent any time together at all, the time that we did spend was just so fab. The most important thing is you made me feel really comfortable which was my number one thing coming in."

But what does that mean for the girl who is about to be single and when does the first Love Island dumping of 2021 take place?

While it's not yet been officially confirmed, and impossible to predict what will happen, the first elimination is likely to take place sometime this week.

According to The Sun, in all previous series of the hit ITV show a contestant has been dumped within the first week.

In the last series, Eve Gale, who entered the villa with her twin Jess, was kicked out on day six.

And in 2019, Callum Macleod, 28, was sent home after just five days.

Who are the Love Island couples?

As it stands currently, the first couples of the series are:

Jake Cornish and Liberty Poole

Aaron Francis and Shannon Singh

Brad McClelland and Faye Winter

Hugo Hammond and Sharon Gaffka

Toby Aromolaran and Kaz Kamwi
