Tensions are simmering in the Love Island villa after news spread of Kaz Crossley’s kiss with Ronnie Vint in the secret garden.
On Thursday’s episode Elma Pazar and Ekin-Su Culculoglu were reeling with the possibilities of what Kaz and Ronnie were up to, with Ekin-Su reminding her: ‘You need to fight for what you want’.
Kaz and Ronnie agreed Elma – who Ronnie is coupled up with – needed to know the truth, but not before getting in another cheeky snog before they parted ways.
Kaz made an immediate beeline for Elma, confessing: ‘I went with Ronnie to the Secret garden and we kissed.’
Elma replied: ‘Oh… oh… OK… let me just take a minute to process that’ and added: ‘I’m not cross at you cause I’ve told you to go and have a chat with him. I’m more disappointed in him.’
Kaz said that Ronnie leant in first for the kiss.

Elma then told Ekin-Su: ‘It’s embarrassing that he’s kissed me in front of everyone, everyone saw that we kissed and then they’ve done a slippery in that room! That doesn’t sit right with me.’
Later when Ronnie pulled Elma to apologise, he said that Kaz initiated the kiss, before adding it was ‘half and half’.
As the rest of the Islanders discuss it, Nas told Ronnie: ‘You shouldn’t have done it so soon after kissing Elma, I think that’s where you’ve gone wrong.’
Luca added: ‘It’s just the timing was one after the other, Elma and Kaz are friends on the outside.’
Ronnie spent the night sleeping outside and the next morning, Kaz and Elma have a chat that quickly turned sour while the other islanders watched on.
The night before, Ronnie was tasked with snogging the ‘three sexiest islanders’ during a dare game and chose Elma, Kaz and Ekin-Su.
But Elma didn’t rate that kiss too well, saying she ‘felt like it was a washing machine’.
Ronnie wasn’t too pleased when he heard this and had a conversation with Elma that quickly turned flirty.

He said: ‘Oh yeah, I got battered earlier thank you.’
‘Why, for what?’ Elma asked to which he replied: ‘For having a s**t kiss.’
‘Oh I’m really sorry about that,’ Elma said.
Ronnie insisted he was ‘over it’ before Elma added: ‘I think it was cause of the circumstances.’
Ronnie replied: ‘Well are we in better ones now, should we have a little kiss?’ and the pair kissed once more.
But soon enough, Kaz decided to pull Ronnie to the secret garden for a private chat where he also suggested they kiss again.
India Reynolds was chatting with Elma at the time and said to her: ‘He’s just gone to the f***ing secret garden.’
‘Is the secret garden something I should be worried about? Cause I’m not worried,’ Elma insisted.
In the garden, Kaz said: ‘I did want to come in here because I wanted to have privacy. Because I do feel, obviously you’ve just kissed in front of everyone.’
Ronnie replied: ‘What, do you want to kiss? Oh yeah, you gave me a s**t rating as well. Can’t have a kiss straight away, or can we?’
Ronnie’s latest romantic drama comes after his friend and fellow Love Island veteran Olivia Attwood spilled several juicy details about his Instagram messages to his co-star Olivia Hawkins.
On Monday’s debut episode, ITV2 viewers were left stunned when Olivia revealed that Ronnie had slid into her DMs while seeing his ex Harriett Blackmore.
As the revelation caused Ronnie to be hit by backlash, he defended himself by claiming he was not in an exclusive relationship with Harriett, who he met on the dating show last summer.
The next day, his close pal Olivia weighed in on the drama and offered her thoughts in a TikTok video, saying there’s more to the story than Olivia H let on.
She said: ‘I’m trying to think what to say without it being too messy. Oh, f**k it, maybe this will be a bit messy this morning.

Ronie and Kaz had also kissed earlier in the night during a racy game
‘I am a girl’s girl. Always. God. I mean, Ron is one of the only straight men that I can tolerate. As well as my husband, depending on which day of the week it is.
‘So, I’m always going to defend the girls, and I’m always going to defend another person called Olivia, because it’s the best name.
‘However, my information is, and my stance on this, not backing Ron, he shouldn’t have messaged someone if he was, you know, in a situationship, whatever, I don’t know the status of him and Harriet at that time.
‘But, Olivia was very engaged in the messaging back and forth, he wasn’t talking to himself.
‘And I think the picture of him holding Harriet’s hand, she photoshopped her face over it and sent it back to him on DM. I just dropped that tea.’
She then continued her rant in a car, as she added: ‘So yeah, I feel like in the show it was made to look a little bit more one-sided than it was. But I do think Ron took his red flag like a gent and he obviously knows that he is wrong for messaging someone.
‘So, you know, it’s growth. Yeah, what else do you want to know? Because apparently I’m just spilling my guts today.’
Love Island continues at Thursday at 9pm on ITV2.
