IS THAT IT FOR TOM AND ZARA? 

Earlier this week, viewers watched as Tom said Zara's rival Olivia, 27, had the 'best face' while she had the 'best body' during a game of truth and dare.

And during Sunday night's episode, Zara, 25, was left furious as she broke down into tears and told as she became frustrated with his choices after the game, with the pair later agreeing to park their romance and remain friends.

When asked by Lana Jenkins if she was ok, Zara said: 'No, I just can't be a***d. All the girls picked Tom. Liv picked Tom like twice. He picked Liv's face. I'm not just some f*****g booty to you.'

Lana then told Tom what had been said, prompting him to say in the Beach Hut: 'The initial attraction is there with me and Zara but, will it last?'

Zara and Tom then slept on things as they had little communication, before heading for a chat the following day - where they decided that romance wasn't on the cards. 

Agreeing that neither would change their ways, the duo agreed to call it friends as Zara admitted she thought there was 'no coming back' from Tom's choice in the game.

'I think there has been a lot of drama and headaches and confusion, and for this to happen this early on, it's too much,' they agreed.

Zara and Tom ended things on a positive note, agreeing to be there for one another on a friendship level. 

'I think you're a top girl and you have good intentions. I'll always be here for you,' concluded the footballer.

HAS NEW BOMBSHELL SAMIE CAUSED A STIR?  

New girl Samie entered the villa with a bang during Sunday's episode and appeared to have some of the boys frazzled - noteably Ron. 

Despite declaring earlier in the day that his sights were set on current love interest Lana, the arrival of Estate Agent Samie appears to have thrown a spanner in the works.

As the brunette beauty arrived, the Essex hunk admitted that the she was '100%' his type as she made her arrival into the villa, noting that he's 'not completely closed off'.

When Samie grilled what his situation was in the villa, Ron responded: 'I have been a bit of a naughty boy, I've been in quite a few couples. But yeah, me and Lana are in a good place right now, but nobody is closed off yet, we'll see.'

And later heading to the beach hut, Ron admitted that the new arrival had left him confused: 'Me and Lana have got a good thing going but we'll see. Samie is 100% my type on paper, petite brunette. Literally, If I could draw out my type, that's it.'

'I'm actually worried for you, Ron,' said Shaq Muhammad as they had a debrief following Samie's arrival.

Will he resist? And talking with the boys later, Ron wondered if he would be able to resist the temptation of getting to know yet another girl

Not sure: 'I'm actually worried for you, Ron,' said Shaq Muhammad

Will he resist? And talking with the boys later, Ron wondered if he would be able to resist the temptation of getting to know yet another girl 

While Ron replied: 'Yes, the temptation is there, she is 100% my type, and do I want to get into trouble with Lana again? I don't think so, it's just about temptation.' 

It will be yet another test for Ron and Lana, with the former previously exploring connections with both Zara and Ellie - getting him into hot water with the make-up artist, who claimed she 'won't be second choice'. 

The pair cooled things off after Ron decided to explore things with Ellie, despite previously telling Lana his sights were firmly on her.

But after realising there wasn't a spark with Ellie, the Financial Advisor came back to Lana and claimed that he would work hard to get them back into a strong couple.  

And now, viewers are convinced Ron could already be set to go back on his word with the arrival of Samie. 

Mixed signals: Earlier in the episode, the Financial Advisor came back to Lana and claimed that he would work hard to get them back into a strong couple - but fans think he could be already turning to Samie
