In a Love Island first, the islanders have spilled news from the outside world, just days from the final. In a shock twist this season, dumped islander Megan Clarke returned to the villa alongside Blu Chegini. In a chat on Wednesday's episode, she gave the villa the DL about speaking with dumped islanders Tommy Bradley and Lucy Quinn on the outside.

It all unfolded when Dejon spoke to the boys about how he thinks Megan is acting differently since her return. Blu chimed in, saying he heard Megan had been in touch with Tommy on the outside. As a quick reminder, Tommy left the villa with Lucy, but more recent reports have suggested that the pair have split.

Were Megan and Tommy dating on the outside?

According to Blu, 'Megan and Tommy were speaking before they came in here. I've heard it... When Tommy and Lucy were in Tape [the London club], cracking on... she was fuming.'

In last night's episode, Megan admitted she had sent some 'flirty' texts to Tommy and that the pair had been 'talking' while she was on the outside. When Megan first left the villa, she expressed support for Tommy's new pairing with Emily Moran, but admitted that she was emotional about their breakup in the villa - more than was shown on TV.

‘That day me and Tommy called it off and it looked like I cried for all of three seconds and then was laughing again,' she told Closer magazine. 'That made me look insane. I did cry more, I promise. That wasn't a great day for me, to be fair. It gets on top of you sometimes. More so than not, I was very cheery and laughy, but that was a tough day.’

That said, there's nothing to suggest Megan and Tommy actually got back together or are planning on rekindling when Megan leaves the villa for a second time. According to eagle-eyed social media users, many believe he's back with old Love Island flame Emily Moran with reports claiming Lucy and Tommy have parted ways.

How did Tommy end up being the playboy of the villa? That's an entirely different debate...
