LOVE Island fans have shared their confusion after one of the Casa Amor boys ‘disappeared’ from the villa.
On Wednesday night’s show, the ITV2 series aired its most chaotic episode yet as more couples failed the Casa Amor test and started kissing newcomers.
The annual twist sees the main girls and boys divided into two villas, and meeting 12 new singletons that could tempt them away from their other halves.
But while the two group devolved into an all-out snog fest – with four separate couples sharing illicit kisses – Jake Spivey appeared to disappear altogether from the episode.
Due to the sheer number of islanders and amount of drama, it’s not uncommon for hopefuls to be largely cut out of the show if they fail to make a connection.
But Jake at one point was seen getting flirty with Matilda Draper, before she moved on to Hugo Godfrey, infuriating Jess White who was also interested in him.
Since that point, Jake has somewhat faded into the background, and on Wednesday night’s episode fans started questioning where he was.
“Wait what happened to Jake ? #loveisland,” wrote one fan, while another joked: “Lionel, Joel and Jake are just there for decoration.”
“I really wanted Jake to come back to the villa #loveisland,” joked a third.
Casa Amor bombshells had their work cut out for them during their time on the show – as they can only secure their place if an islander couples up with them to bring them back into the main villa.
If they fail to make an impression, they’re immediately dumped.
Tonight, the annual ‘stick or twist’ recoupling will air, with Maya Jama returning to the villa to make the cast decide.
They can stick with their original partner, or recouple with someone from Casa – and when making their decision, they’ll have no idea what their other half has chosen to do.
The end result is a mass cull of the cast, with sources telling The Sun that “heads will roll” as the decisions are revealed.
“The tension was unbearable and viewers will be left gobsmacked as to who choses who,” they said.
“The infamous Casa recoupling will cause chaos and has completely shaken up the villa and the relationships.

“A number of Islanders have already been dumped from the villa and are on their way home.”
It’s clear that no one is safe with nearly everyone in a couple sharing a passionate snog with someone else.
Among those who have played away is Wil Anderson, who shared a kiss with Lucy Graybill while technically coupled up with Uma Jammeh, and Ayo Odukoya stole a passionate snog with Jessica Spencer after spending his entire time so far with Mimii Ngulube.
Sean Stone, who is currently partnered with Matilda, also shared a kiss with Diamanté Laiva, while Joey Essex was seen getting close again with ex Emma Milton.
Let the drama commence.
