LOVE Island fans tonight insisted that a new couple were set to WIN the show, just weeks before final.
It came after Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan got steamy in the hot tub tonight.
Josh entered the villa last night as one of two two fresh male Islanders, with Chertsey Town footballer Reuben Collins making his intentions for Uma Jammeh, 23, clear.
And tonight things stepped up a gear when the hunk in trunks took the bikini babe into the hideaway,
Wasting no time in crackin’ on with Mimii, Josh whisked her off to the secluded spot straight after breakfast.
The pair immediately started snogging, before continuing their steamy session in the hot tub.
This raunchy action drove fans wild and they immediately called for the pair to win the show.
Taking to social media one said: “Josh & mimi are my winners.”
While this one echoed: “Mimi and Josh just makes sense ugh yum #loveisland my winners.”
Another said: “Josh and mimi could be the winners if he doesn’t mess this up”
This latest fan reaction is in stark contrast to how viewers felt about Josh and Mimi last night.
Fans previously thought that they had sussed the bombshell’s intentions towards the OG Islander.
On their first date, Josh opened up on Mimii’s recent Casa Amor heartache and how she’d been done dirty by Ayo Odukoya yet Love Island fans are now on high alert.
But last night fans reckoned the model was using Mimii’s popularity to stay on the show, insisting his intentions towards the mental health nurse may not be pure.
One show fan took to X to muse: “Josh is cheating, he knows we love Mimi and using it to his advantage he’s giving Greg vibes.”
They were referring to Greg O’Shea, who ended up winning a previous season with Amber Gill.
Another mused: “Josh definitely knows Mimii is a fan favourite he is going to do anything to please you guys. I am happy for team Mimii though.”
A third then put: “You people don’t really care about Mimi, this Josh guy has been following the show, he knows she is fans favourite.
“I see some of y’all even going as far as saying, you don’t mind if he is fake as far he can make Ayo uncomfortable, are you people mad?”
Another then put: “So the other guy should also fake things with Mimi so spite Ayo so y’all can get your revenge so Mimi can get hurt again? To satisfy y’all?”
During an explosive Casa Amor, east London lad Ayo set his sights on Jessica Spencer, 25.
It came after he was paired up with Mimii since day one.
Fans had slammed his “manipulative” behaviour and last week claimed bosses were deliberately protecting Ayo during Movie Week by not showcasing the full extent of his deception.
Additionally ITV2 viewers are now convinced Love Island bosses have brought in Josh and Reuben to “stir the pot.”
Mimii, Uma and Jessy were all sent off to enjoy a date with the show’s two new hunky bombshells – with Jessy being a “wingman” as she is happily coupled up with Joey Essex.
At the time, a source said of Mimii: “It is just what she needed to feel better, after Ayo betrayed her and her confidence was low… but now she has the opportunity to start a new chapter in the villa.”
Meanwhile, fans were quick to call out the Portsmouth beauty’s bizarre sleeping habit.
And during the tapas date, fans were left equally baffled by Reuben’s real age – this being aged 23.
