Love Island's Zara axed from villa as Tom picks Ellie in brutal recoupling twist

Love Island’s Zara Lackenby-Brown has been brutally axed from the show after she failed to get picked by one of the single lads.

The model, 25, was booted out of the TV villa in South Africa after her ex Tom Clare chose new girl Ellie Spence over her in tonight’s explosive show (February 1).

When Zara realised she was axed from the show, she gracefully hugged Ellie before smiling at the Islanders and hugging her pals.

Heading inside to pack her bags and prepare to leave the villa, the girls helped their friend before walking her down the stairs to bid farewell.

Australian beauty Jessie said that she and Zara should meet in Chelsea when they are all back in London.

To which Zara responded with enthusiasm and spoke about getting “rich men”.

Hugging her pals once more at the bottom of the staircase, Zara then departed the villa with her suitcase in tow.

Wearing a black mini dress with diamante detailing, the stunning model did a huge squat – risking wardrobe malfunction.

Then she spoke to the camera before departing the show for good, where she said that she was still looking for her “king”.

But Zara insists there are no hard feelings and said: “I genuinely think me and Tom calling it a day was the best thing that we could have done because we weren’t ever actually on the same page.

“Like a flame, we burned quick and it was just more physical attraction.

“The fact we weren’t each other’s types intrigued us to try and make a go of it, but ultimately it didn’t work out.”

In her exit-interview, Zara revealed who she thinks could be in with a chance of winning.

“Jessie and Will,” she said defiantly.

“If either of them are prepared to travel, or move, their energies really do match up, they really get along with each other. I do genuinely think that Tanya and Shaq will last, too.”

Love Island airs weeknights at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX, with Unseen Bits airing every Saturday
