Love Island viewers have slammed Megan Forte Clarke as 'the biggest villain in that villa' for secretly kissing Conor Phillips, after leaving Tommy Bradley in tears on Tuesday's episode.
The 24-year-old chose to recouple with Tommy, 22, during Monday's instalment, but has continued to explore a romantic connection with fellow Irish native, Conor, 23.
And things came to head on Tuesday night, as she and Tommy became embroiled in a row over her flirtation with Conor that left him crying, while she kissed the rugby player on the terrace.
Things kicked off between Megan and Tommy, after Shakira, 22, spilled the beans to Harry, 30, about what Megan had told her about her developing connection with Conor.
Shakira told the gold trader: 'With Conor there's sexual chemistry there, maybe not with Tommy but it's growing… she [Megan] said maybe if they would've been coupled up from day one it would've been a bit different…'
Harry was quick to relay the information to Tommy, who angrily confronted Conor, saying: 'I just think you've been a little bit disrespectful in how you've gone about it'.
However, Conor hit back: 'I don't need to ask your permission before I go in to ask someone who's single where their heads at.'
Tommy later asked Megan about what Harry had told him, asking: 'Apparently you were saying you've got way more sexual chemistry with Conor and the thought of a recoupling with him made you buzzing?'
But Megan quickly denied the claims and became furious as she accused Tommy of believing Harry's word over her own.
She fumed: 'What? No! There is more sexual tension with Conor because I've not explored anything with him… why the f**k would you believe what Harry said?'
She later raged at Harry, demanding he 'stop getting involved' and the disagreement continued into the nighttime, resulting in Tommy leaving to sleep separately.
Tensions were still high the following morning, with a brokenhearted Tommy admitting he wanted to 'sit in the corner and do nothing all day', before breaking down in tears and being consoled by Ben and Harry.
But far from being moved by Tommy's emotional reaction, Megan claimed that she was less keen on him and took to opportunity to develop her romance with Conor further.
As Tommy watched, the pair headed to the terrace, where Conor cheekily asked: 'If there was a recoupling right now, who would you recouple with?'

Megan shockingly confessed: 'Yesterday it would've been Tommy but I'm raging with him, so today it's you.'
Sneaking a look to check no one could see them, she then urged Conor to kiss her and the pair shared a passionate smooch, which she rated an '11 out of 10'.
Watching the explosive scenes, fans were left fuming at Megan's actions, accusing her of 'gaslighting' Tommy, by downplaying her flirtatious behaviour with Conor and demanding she 'pack her bags and go home'.
Viewers took to social media to slam her as a 'villain' and a 'hypocrite', after she previously criticised other contestants for exploring multiple connections and accused her of using the argument with Tommy as an 'excuse' to pursue Conor.
They raged: 'Megan might actually be one of the biggest gaslighters we've ever seen on love island'; 'not Megan kissing Connor 10 minutes after being told about Tommy crying ☠️'.
'Megan is gaslighting the hell out of Tommy & that's why she's the biggest villain in that villa!! No accountability just blaming others!'; '
'And they say men are always the game players! Started drama with Tommy for an excuse so kissing Connor can be justified get her out'; 'Conor and Megan should couple up so we can kick them out. I'm sick of both of them'.
'Pack your bags Megan I am personally booking your flight back to Ireland'; 'Megan you spent the last 2 weeks preaching about respect and you do Tommy like that after being told he was crying earlier in the day??? WILD'.
'I tried to support my Irish queen but I simply cannot do this anymore, Megan please leave'; 'I hate Megan for making Tommy cry, I hate her more because she's making me side with a man. He deserves so much better, she's treating him like a mug'.
'she's defo using this to push tommy away to get with conor she's such a gaslighter'; 'SO MEGAN HEARS TOMMY HAS BEEN CRYING, SHOWS ABSOLUTELY NO REACTION TO THAT AND THEN GOES AND KISSES CONOR TWICE??'
'Megan's gone for the tactic of picking a fight so she can justify kissing Connor later'; 'didn't megan give s**t to Yasmin for kissing harry in secret and what has she done today ?? Circle of life'.
'Megan really chose the same morning she found out Tommy was crying over her to kiss Connor on the terrace'; 'So Megan pretended to be angry the whole time just to do…THAT?'
'so Megan blatantly gaslit Tommy, picked a fight with him, and then used that as her 'excuse' to go and do what she wanted… WE SEE YOU!!'; 'can both conor and megan just pack their bags and go home already'.
'Megan is truly a villain because how have you got me feeling sorry for TOMMY?!'; 'Megan has attacked other women for exploring, made me feel bad for a man ANDDD gone and kissed Conor. She's really pmo'.
'is this the same Megan that attacked Malisha & Yasmin for exploring connections whilst she's exploring Connor infront of Tommys face??'; 'Megan going to using this as a way and reason to leave Tommy'.
'Watching Tommy get completely gaslighted by Megan'; 'Can't believe Megan has gone from my favourite to least favourite in one episode, she needs to go.'
'Megan trying to flip it on Tommy so that she has a reason to crack on with Connor lol, you ain't slick babe'; 'Hopefully Megan tells Tommy about the kiss as she's so open, honest and respectful'.
