Only Connor moved, having just been on a date with the influencer. As a result, Alima - who had been in a friendship couple with him - was asked to switch places with Billykiss.
Moments later, when no girls stepped forward for Ryan, the group assumed Alima and Ryan would be paired.
But instead, a brutal twist revealed both were being dumped from the Island immediately - a decision that left the rest of the villa stunned and in tears.
Fans have since taken to Facebook to vent their frustration that she was dumped, while others - including Meg Moore - were saved.

Alima, left uncoupled, then took Billykiss' place up at the front.

Ryan had only just entered the show as a bombshell.

Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too. For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect. And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time. But no matter what, Primark always delivers. Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores. While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less. Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards. With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.
