Helena and Harrison scooted off to the Hideaway - reserved for duos who are not coupled up - and Helena was promptly branded a "sneak b***h" by her love rival.
This came before Helena and Harrison then locked lips.
Shortly afterwards, Toni, 24, dumped Harrison over his "sneaky" smooch - yet her decision, and fury at his conduct - sparked all out chaos in the villa.
Nearly all the Love Island cast became involved in one way or another.
Shakira had a go at Harrison for not being truthful to Toni about how he feels about Helena.
Then Meg, Helena, and Remell separately, questioned why Shakira was getting involved in the argument.
Later, Shakira then gave Harrison a piece of her mind about his behaviour.
As the drama rumbled on - and left Toni in tears - those watching at home reckon they know the real reason for her sadness.
Some have suggested that Helena doesn't really like Harrison - and is using him as a way to remain in the matchmaking series.
New Love Island feud explodes as Toni brands love rival 'a sneaky b****' and ANOTHER two islanders sneak off to the Hideaway
One took to Reddit to comment underneath a thread that read: "Helena kissing Harrison for 5 minutes of validation," suggesting the blonde was "faking" it.
They then commented on their theory and said: "It seems she needed some quick validation and decided to kiss 22 year old Harrison with his school boy crush on her. You could tell she was barely into their kiss.
"Helena is of course free to do what she wants to do, but was it really worth ending Toni's first proper feelings in the house for 5 minutes of validation from a 22 year old?
"We all know Helena is not moving to America to start a relationship with college boy Harrison after the show."
A second agreed and put: "I think thats what made Toni so mad at Helena. Because its obvious Helena isn't really into Harrison, she just can't have Harry and Giorgio is too boring but she needs to be partnered with someone.
"So having 'your partner' essentially be taken by a girl who doesn't even want him as got to be frustrating as f**k."
A third noted: "I don't think Toni expressed it the best way but this is essentially what she was getting at."
One then quipped: "Helena kissed Harrison because she wants to have her hot girl summer."
Yet another fan stucjk up for Helena and put: "Sure, what Helena did was sh***y, but it's not her fault Harrison isn't feeling Toni.
"If it wasn't Helena, it would have been another woman."
STORY UNFOLDS
Helena and Harrison shared their first kiss in the spin-off villa room last week - sparking the drama in its entirety.
Inside the Hideaway Terrace, viewers heard Harrison tell Helena: 'We could be in trouble after tonight.'
She told him: 'It's the risk you've got to take sometimes.'
'Are you willing to take that risk though?' he asked.
Helena then replied: 'I've got nothing to lose.'
After they returned to the garden Harrison and Toni talk at the Firepit.
She tells him: 'We just went on a f***ing date yesterday and you're already going to the Hideaway with another girl.'
Following the row, Shakira gives Harrison a piece of her mind about his behaviour.
She says: 'I don't know what planet you're on, you've obviously upset the girl, you know what reaction it was going to have…'
Toni then refused to accept Harrison's apology and promptly dumped him.

Shock moment Love Island's Helena whispers VERY x-rated message in Harry's ear during Heart Rate Challenge
LOVE Island viewers were left speechless after Helena leaned in and whispered a seriously X-rated message into Harry's ear - right under Shakira's nose. The steamy moment left viewers gobsmacked, just as cracks began to show in Harry and Shakira's rocky romance. 5 In a dramatic game of Snog, Marry, Pie, Shakira ended up going head to head with Helena over Harry's affections - leaving Shakira in tears and feeling "betrayed". Tonight's episode sees the return of the iconic and steamy heart rate challenge - where Helena uses the opportunity to flirt with Harry again. In a sneak preview, Helena is wearing racy black lace lingerie as she makes her way to each boy and attempts to get their heartbeats racing. When she gets to her former flame Harry, Helena seductively sucks his finger then whispers in his ear: "I can't wait to f*** you!" - leaving Harry reeling. And Dejon was left open-mouthed when Harrison told him what Helena said. But is Helena just playing the game to spike his heart beat, or does she have genuine feelings for Harry? This comes after Helena chose to snog Harry, remarking: 'It's been a while and I wanted to test the waters.' Shakira went next and snogged Harry too, saying 'I fancy the pants off him.' The boys went next and after almost walking past her, Harry pulled Helena in for a snog - leaving Shakira gobsmacked. He admitted: 'There's undeniable sexual chemistry.' Harry then chose to go down on one knee for Shakira, but his proposal is declined. Alima told Harry: 'I'm getting second hand embarrassment, get up.' Later on the Terrace, Toni and Yasmin consoled an upset Shakira who cried: 'I can handle all of them being b****es when I've got a good thing with Harry… now everything has gone to sh**. Why the f*** would he kiss Helena?' Also in a recent episode, Harry's guy best friend Dejon opened up to him about his connection with Helena. He said if he could have it his way he would see the pair together. Harry, with tears in his eyes, replied: "Yeah. Like, we just have nothing. Do you know what I mean?" He then paused to dab his face and added: "Where it's just like, we were good and then it's just like she can't even be around me." Many fans and islanders thought he was having a taste of his own medicine following his lothario conduct. However, the girls have pointed out Harry's had a change in good behaviour since being coupled up with Shakira... but how long will it last? Will Harry ditch Shakira and pick up where they left off Helena? Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2. 5 5 5

EastEnders fans discover BBC soap star is 90s comedy legend
Villains are killed off and others jet off abroad in search of a new life, making way for new talent to arrive on Albert Square. Among the most recent confirmed exits on the BBC soap include Molly Rainford, known for playing Queen Vic barmaid Anna Knight. But there's one former resident of Walford who has recently been appearing in the classic EastEnders episodes, and fans are shocked to realise she was also a 90s comedy legend. It comes as someone said in a throwback post on Reddit: 'Classic EE: I just realised who Queenie Trott was! 'She used to star in comedy show Keeping Up Appearances playing Daisy in the 90s. 'Judy Cornwell (who played Heather's Mum) only lasted 8 episodes (2007-08) and her last appearance was only this week after seeing her daughter getting married to Minty (fake or real). 'Was it just me, or did anyone else knew who she was?' Queenie Trott was played by Judy Cornwell, who joined the programme in 2007 and was the mother of Heather Trott. However, in 2008, Queenie exited the BBC soap as part of a storyline that saw Heather marry her fiancé, Minty Peterson. When Heather was murdered on EastEnders in 2012, Queenie didn't attend her funeral. Yet before her role on EastEnders, Judy took on the character of Daisy, who was the sister of Hyacinth Bucket (Patricia Routledge) and was married to Onslow (Geoffrey Hughes) on Keeping Up Appearances. Reacting to the discovery of Judy's role as Daisy in the BBC sitcom (from 1990 to 1995), someone responded to the original post on the subreddit r/eastenders: 'And the penny drops!!!! Thank you!!' This person commented: 'What a great actress, those two characters are worlds apart.' Someone else put: 'I knew who she was, always liked Onslow and Daisy lol.' Meanwhile, one fan revealed: 'She also played Mrs. Musgrove in the 1995 film 'Persuasion' with Ciarán Hinds—she was fantastic in that role!' Recommended reading: EastEnders legend returning to role after 27 years and teases 'awful surprises' Major EastEnders exit is confirmed as popular star set to leave BBC soap EastEnders icon rushed to hospital after collapsing twice on the BBC show Another added: 'I knew who she was, but I'm once again aggrieved at Heather's demise when she had so much more storytelling to do, including her relationship with Queenie!' One viewer replied: 'And Judy is still alive and well, now 85 years old.' Do you remember Judy Cornwell as Queenie Trott in EastEnders or as Daisy in Keeping Up Appearances?
