Love Island’s Lana Jenkins was left in tears following the first recoupling of the series.
During Friday’s episode (January 20) of the ITV2 dating show, Ron Hall decided to end things with new bombshell Zara Lackenby-Brown in favour of prioritising his budding romance with Lana.
And the pair seemed to be going from strength to strength after admitting their feelings to each other, later sharing their first kiss outside of a challenge.

But with the recoupling comes plenty of drama and it was Tanyel Revan who made the decision to split up the couple.
Tanyel, who was originally coupled up with Kai, showed an interest in Ron in Thursday’s episode.
During the recoupling, Anna-May chose to couple up with Kai, leaving Tanyel with the options of Ron, Will and David.
As she stood in front of the three lads, Tanyel explained her reasoning for recoupling with this boy was because they “get on really well” and she wants to get to know him on “a deeper level”.
After calling out Ron’s name, the camera panned to Lana who was visibly gutted and could be seen wiping her eyes.
As it was Lana’s turn to couple up, she admitted the decision was “s**t” because she has been left with no other option.
The makeup artist decided to couple up with Will, meaning it was David who became the first islander to be dumped.
Later in the Beach Hut, Tanyel explained: “I picked Ron because the top two would’ve been either Ron and Kai. And Anna-May picked Kai so the other option was Ron, so I’m happy.”
Fans were gutted about Ron and Lana, with several sharing their thoughts on social media.
“My heart is hurting for Lana and Ron tonight,” penned one user.
A second added: “Lana and ron for the win already idc.”
Another exclaimed: “TANYEL WHY THE HECK DID YOU DO THAT YOU KNEW RON AND LANA WERE HAPPY.”
While a fourth echoed: “Love island fix your shit Lana and Ron better get back together. #LoveIsland.”
