Fans of Love Island were left in shock at Friday night's twist, which saw returning islander Kady McDermott unwittingly dump Molly Marsh from the villa.

After her highly-anticipated return, season 2 star Kady was asked to to steal a boy to couple up with, leaving one of the girls single.

She chose Zach Noble, despite him seeming fairly settled down with Molly, reasoning that he "caught her eye". But Molly immediately received a text saying she's been dumped from the island, leaving her fellow stars gasping.

However, considering the abrupt decision, fans think there's more to the twist and that Molly will be coming back in one way or another.

One viewer tweeted: "Not them pulling a love island France. She’s not actually dumped. She’s coming back next episode. They really love making Molly main character. I’m so mad I can’t enjoy this victory because she’s definitely coming back."

Another added: "Producers gonna put Molly in Casa Amor or something sorry."

One more said: "Molly is going to be at Casa amor. There is no way she’s going that easily."

Viewers haven't actually seen Molly leave the villa yet, with the episode ending abruptly. However, it wouldn't be the first time fans have expected to see an islander come back when she's really gone for good, after Shannon Singh's abrupt exit in season 7.

As for what Zach will do now Molly's been dumped, only time will tell.
