Love Island fans were left divided after two contestants revealed they already knew each other.
Haris and Olivia seemed to forge an instant connection on the programme despite not coupling up with each other, as boxer Haris revealed he has seen Olivia acting as ring-girl when he’s been competing.
Host Maya Jama quickly asked if Haris has already slid into Olivia’s DMs after she confessed she’s had a fair few messages from eager lads, but he insisted he hasn’t messaged her.

Stepping forward for Olivia, Haris said: “Yeah she is a stunning girl and I like her energy, but if you don’t mind me asking, are you a ring girl?”
Olivia, who confessed she’s a “cougar” when it comes to dating and only sets her sights on younger men, said: “Yes.”

“Ah, I’m a boxer that’s all! I think I’ve come across your, erm… social media before.”
“Have you been in her DMs, Haris?” Maya Jama asked, as Haris insisted: “No, no, no.”
But fans were divided by the real-life connection, taking to Twitter to air their thoughts.
One fan penned: “How does Haris know that Olivia is a ring girl like that??”

“Lmao Olivia not having a clue who Haris is!” someone else giggled, while a fourth said: “Haris ‘are you a ring girl’ he’s defo been in her DMs before and she knew it!”
Someone else cackled: “It was the fact he said he was a boxer to a ring girl and still didn’t get picked.”

In the end, Olivia chose to couple up with Kai, stealing him from Anna-May – though Tanyel quickly threw a spanner in the works by choosing Kai too.
It meant Olivia ended up with Will, who fans are already branding the next Hugo Hammond after a very awkward hug.
One fan penned on Twitter: “Why do I think Will is going to be the Hugo or Jay of the series and just be friends with everyone?”
“Will and Hugo have to be the same person,” another echoed.
While a third said: “Will is going to be the Hugo of this season I can already see it.”
Someone else said: “Will is just a taller Hugo.”
