Speaking to the girls on the patio, Tanya explained, “Last night me and Shaq basically had a… let’s just call it a football warm-up.”
Olivia asked: “Did both players get warm-ups?”
“No, just the one,” Tanya replied when Lana asked if she was “ready to start the game.”

Fans of the show voiced their thoughts on Twitter, with many saying they were “twitching” and tired of the islanders using “immature analogies.”
One viewer wrote: “It annoys me that they always talk about sex acts in code on #loveisland, if you’re confident enough to do it on TV you should be confident enough to talk about it right?”
“These sex analogies are harrowing, you’re all grown adults, be real,” added another.
A third wrote: “This love island immature sex talk is toooooo spasmodic ‘football warm up’ what the heck?”

She says: “I’ll be real with you, Tom obviously ticks pretty much everything for me, but it’s early days, I haven’t even spoken to you properly, it would be nice to explore.”
However, their leisurely conversation is awkwardly interrupted by Tanya, who is coupled with Shaq as she brings the airport security officer a cup of tea.
