Love Island loyals are now branding Alima Gagigo, 23, a "supporting character."
It came as Harry Cooksley took the spotlight during the latest hour-long episode, after he admitted he was "faking" his feelings for Shakira Khan.
Meanwhile Tommy Bradley was seen kissing two girls - leaving his partner Megan fuming.
US bombshell Toni Laites was also seen locking horns with newbie Emily in further explosive scenes.
Yet when Alima appeared to go off radar, fans took to X to comment.
One wrote of the personal banker: "Has anyone seen Alima? she's never seen with the girls, or with Remell and the other boys… WHERE IS SHE??? do we have to file a missing person?"
A second posted: "Nah it's like Remell and Alima are like supporting characters they vanish as soon as they come on my screen."
A third added: "Guys…where TF is Alima????"
One then mused: "I see the girls and their different friend groups - where the f**k is Alima?"
FAN FEAR
It came just days after loyal show fans predicted doom for the Glasgow-born TV star.
Love Island feud breaks out as Meg's savage row with Malisha splits the villa - forcing Alima to step in
Alima is coupled up with 24-year-old bombshell Remell Mullings.
Despite recent tensions, a U-turn saw them share a passionate kiss.
However, show alums Amy Hart and Indiyah Polack had earlier predicted things could go awry for the couple.
Speaking on their Love Island: Morning After podcast, Amy said: "Thing is as well, with Remell and Alima, most people can count, right?
"You go in the villa and there's more boys than girls. Which means that boys will be at risk.
"So, I need to find a girl - and I'm not saying that Alima was an easy option.
"She's a beautiful girl with a beautiful heart and she's amazing."
Continuing, Amy remarked how Remell "didn't even speak to anyone else" and observed her bond with Blu wasn't the strongest.
She added: "He saw her and was like, 'That's my target' and then now he's wanting to kiss people in the challenge.
"I just think, on paper, it looks like Remell came straight in for Alima, went for her and now they're in a couple.
"Whereas it's not all those things."
The villa couple previously butted heads when Remell kissed anyone but his partner in a challenge.
Alima told him: 'I think you were so disrespectful, I'm not gonna lie…do you feel like you did everything right?'
Their conversation continued, as Alima added: 'You say you like me and do things that just don't match, it's worse you can't even take accountability…maybe we're not compatible…"

JoJo Siwa abruptly cancels gay pride gig over 'pressure' to brand her sexuality
JoJo Siwa will no longer be taking part in a Pride event in Chicago next weekend - with the news being announced a day after she candidly opened up about her sexuality journey JoJo Siwa has abruptly pulled out of a gay pride performance just hours after revealing she felt "pressured" to brand herself a lesbian. The 22-year-old American singer has been on a high profile romantic journey since April this year when she met Love Island star Chris Hughes in the UK Celebrity Big Brother house. Viewers watched on in surprise as the pair grew closer and closer over the course of their time in the house. Eyebrows were raised as JoJo was dating an Australian content creator called Kath Ebbs at the time. Once the show ended, Kath was almost immediately dumped by the Dance Moms star and days later it was revealed she and 32-year-old Chris had embarked on a romance. This week, JoJo, who identifies as queer, explained that she had been pressured to declare herself a lesbian. And in the wake of this declaration, it has been revealed she has dropped out at performing at an LGBTQ+ event later this month. She had been due to perform at the Back Lot Bash in Chicago as part of their Chicago Pride Sunday party on June 29. But the organization suddenly announced on Saturday morning that this would no longer be the case. The venue wrote on social media: "Due to a scheduling conflict, JoJo Siwa will no longer be performing at Chicago's Back Lot Bash" - without and further explanation. The Mirror has contacted a representative of JoJo for comment. The abrupt cancellation follows news that the star had cancelled a planned tour. She revealed via her official website earlier this month: "I've got some news that breaks my heart to share... my US tour has to be postponed. I promise I'll be back before you know it to perform for all the beautiful people in the US!... Announcements will be coming soon, including some Europe shows!:)" It added: "Thank you so much for your understanding and support. I can't wait to see you all soon! To my Dream Guest VIPs, my team will be reaching out to you individually to plan something special. Refunds will be issued at point of purchase." Her Chicago Pride cancellation comes a day after she gave a candid interview to the Daily Mail in which she opened up about her sexuality journey. She told the publication: "When I came out at 17, I said: 'I'm pansexual, because I don't care [about gender].' But then I kind of boxed myself in and I said: 'I'm a lesbian.' And I think I did that because of pressure." She continued: "'In a weird way, I think [the pressure] came a little bit from inside the [LGBTQ] community at times. From people I know, from partners I've had. "You just get put in this world where you feel like, because you now have said, 'Oh, I'm a lesbian', you have to be a lesbian. And the truth is, sexuality is fluid." In a recent chat with TMZ, JoJo also addressed the ongoing scrutiny that she's been subjected to as fans have dissected her love life. She told the outlet: "The thing is, love is a beautiful rainbow and I think that the LGBTQIA+ community needs to remember that love is love and think the hate from within the community is something I've learned a lot from and I think that a lot of people get to grow from and I'm on of those people. "I think that again I can give you an example of love is love, you can be happy..." Fans could soon see a lot more of JoJo and Chris and their apparent blossoming love - as rumours abound that ITV is preparing to offer them a reality show of their own. A source told The Sun: "It's still in the early stages but ITV really think they'd be amazing TV with their own show. Fans around the world are obsessed with their relationship and there are so many TikTok accounts devoted to their love story."

Love Island fans work out Harry's ‘real plan' after Helena is stunned to learn he kissed bombshell Yasmin three times
SOME viewers also had an urgent warning for Shakira amid Harry's latest antics secret signs Love Island fans work out Harry's 'real plan' after Helena is stunned to learn he kissed bombshell Yasmin three times LOVE Island viewers believe they have worked out Harry's 'real plan' after he snogged Yasmin three times behind Helena's back. Helena was fuming to learn what had happened during last night's challenge, and wasted no time calling it quits with the footballer. Advertisement 6 Helena was disgusted by Harry's antics Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 6 Harry has snogged Yasmin three times Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 6 He has also been cracking on with Shakira again Credit: Shutterstock Editorial But now fans of the show reckon that Harry didn't lock lips with Yasmin because he wants to be with the brunette bombshell, but more because he wanted Helena to end their coupling as he has his sights set on Shakira. Speaking on reddit, one show devotee wrote: "Let's be honest, Harry never got over what he thought about Helena's lifestyle. Instead of ending it directly he wanted her to do it because he wanted to save face when he realised she heard what he said. They continued: "Let me be frank, When a boy thinks that about any girl they are never going to take them seriously. That is why he started messing around with Yasmin while still coupled up with Helena." And the theorist added that they believe he is playing the game to eventually work his way back to Shakira. Advertisement They said: "Now that Shakira's in the picture, he's made it obvious that she's his priority but she was in the situation with Ben. Yasmin's basically been sidelined, and it's clear she was just a backup plan to keep him in the villa. "If Helena's lifestyle was an issue for him, Yasmin's boldness probably is too, he just hasn't vocalised it. He's playing the long game and was using people to buy time to get onto Shakira or the next bombshell." There certainly appeared to be something in this fan's intuition after Harry's behaviour in last night's episode. After his kisses with Yasmin were exposed, Helena ended things and he wasn't seen talking to Yasmin again. Advertisement He did, however, make a beeline for Shakira, who called time on her time with Ben last night. "I wanted to see how you were feeling because I think initially you were number one for me and I kind of f***ed it," he said. Love Island first look: Are Harry and Shakira back on the cards? "It's not even like the pickle I have got in with Helena. I just don't think I would do the things I do if it was you because I know you wouldn't stand for it, Shakira then replied: "It was you and it still is you but it's your behaviour for me that I can't tolerate. Advertisement "Obviously it's not with me, which is fair, but if you ever did treat me like that, it would just be a f****** waste of time because I would never stand for it, ever." Harry went on to say: "It would be different if we were coupled up and I was getting to know people, I wouldnt have done it. 6 Helena has told Harry she is 'done' with him Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 6 Since their snogs, Yasmin appears to have been frozen out by Harry Credit: Eroteme Advertisement 6 Shakira has called time on things with Ben Credit: Shutterstock Editorial "I have got away with so much with Helena already, I can just keep getting away with it, kind of thing." In the same reddit post, other fans agreed he likes Shakira but warned he will have eyes for lots of the Casa Amor beauties. One said: "Please, he'll be cracking on in Casa Amor. He likes Shakira for sure but not enough to stop him being a bit of a man s**g lol." Advertisement A second agreed, chiming in: "If he's like this now I can't imagine casa." Meanwhile a third weighed in, with more words of warning for Shakira. "He wants Shakira, but he only wants her because she's the one who pied him at the beginning and he wants to prove he can get her," they said. "If she thinks he will treat her differently, she is in for a shock." Advertisement Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX
