LOVE Island fans were up in arms tonight as Samantha Kenny was dumped from the villa.
The makeup artist from Liverpool was sent home after bombshell Grace Jackson swooped in and stole Joey Essex from her, leaving her single.
The news left Nicole Samuel in floods of tears while Uma Jammeh looked shell-shocked.
It was a brutal end to a tough few days following Grace's shock arrival.
The newbie wasted no time laying claim to Joey who she dated for six weeks earlier this year.
She chose the Towie legend to join her in Casa Amor for a sleepover, before the pair cosied up in the Hideaway in scenes that played out tonight.

Sam threatened to walk in last night's show after Joey returned from Casa Amor and showed more affection to Grace in one night than he had given her in two weeks.
And she made her feelings clear to Joey's face tonight when he revealed he was heading to the Hideaway.
He told her: “I want to let you know I’m gonna stay in the Hideaway with Grace.”
Samantha said: “That’s fine…I’ve seen you kissing over there before…bit out of order, don’t you think? I’ve just been crying in their two hours ago and then you are kissing on the daybed."

So the writing was already on the wall in the build up to a surprise recoupling which saw the three new bombshells given first pick.
Wil picked Uma, Grace chose Joey, Tiffany chose Ronnie, Ayo stayed with Mimii, Ciaran picked Nicole, Sean chose Harriett, and Omar picked Jess.
After learning her fate, Sam said: "I'm not stupid. I literally didn't give anyone else a chance other than Joey but at the end of the day it is what it is.
"I think what's next for me is I'm gonna get myself to London, definitely want to move down there, so I can find my little cockney fella because the one that was in there wasn't for me!"
Tellingly, she refused to speak to both Joey and Grace before leaving.
Sam's exit shocked viewers with one writing on X: "Samantha had a bad ending damn."
Another said: "WOW REALLY?!
A third posted: "Wow Samantha could not catch a break that’s crazy. Her love island experience has been awful."
