Niall Aslam’s shock exit from the villa was glossed over during Tuesday night’s episode of the ITV2 show.
And Love Island viewers have been left wondering what the real reason for his sudden departure could be following the underwhelming way his fellow islanders reacted to news of him leaving for ‘personal reasons’.
A major clue appears to have gone largely unnoticed in the midst of Rosie’s explosive showdown with love rat Adam, during which she made a cryptic reference to Niall ‘lying’ to the group.

The Welsh solicitor was heard telling Adam: ‘Do you want to tell me something that maybe you should of had the balls to tell me before?’
‘You say about Niall not being honest the other night, but you literally did what he did… and didn’t have the balls to tell me before that you were going to do it.’
Very few fans picked up on the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it comment, which came after Niall barely had any airtime in the previous episode.

The Welsh solicitor told Adam: ‘You should of had the balls to tell me before? You say about Niall not being honest the other night…’
One tweeted: ‘Did anyone else notice Rosie reference Niall’s dishonesty in her confrontation with Adam, I reckon he’s broke the rules in some way and that’s why it’s so hush hush #LoveIsland’.
A second viewer questioned: ‘Rosie said to Adam “you had a go at Niall for lying the other night and you’ve done exactly what he did”, what did Niall do?!!!! #LoveIsland.’
Viewers at home were left puzzled about why Niall was hardly mentioned during Tuesday night’s episode following the initial statement about his departure, read out by his friend Dr Alex.

One puzzled social media viewer wrote: ‘Did no one in the villa notice Niall has left? Why aren’t they talking about it? #LoveIsland’.
Another posted, ‘The recoupling isn’t tonight’s cliffhanger. Niall leaving for “personal reasons” is the cliffhanger. Why’s he left? What happened? Where is he? Come on #loveisland give us the goss.’
Others were convinced Niall’s real reason for leaving was known to the group, especially since his partner Georgia appeared totally unfazed when she was filmed hearing the news.
‘Why did Georgia not seem at all arsed that Niall had gone #LoveIsland’, one tweet read.

Dr Alex was filmed breaking the news to the group on Tuesday night, reading out a statement saying, ‘For personal reasons unfortunately he can’t continue or come back to the Villa.’
In disbelief, Georgia took to the Beach Hut and voiced her shock: ‘Obviously I was coupled up with him so obviously I came closer to him than most people in here but it wasn’t just that.
‘He was actually my friend, my buddy.’ Taken aback by his sudden departure, Dr Alex admitted Niall will be missed by all as he reiterated how much of a ‘great guy’ he is.
‘I’m obviously sad that Niall’s left the villa,’ he shared. ‘We got on really, really well. He’s such a great guy. And I look forward to catching up with him and having some fun with him outside.’

A spokesperson for Love Island confirmed the news to MailOnline: ‘Niall has left the villa for personal reasons and won’t be returning to the show.’
Meanwhile The Sun report that Niall’s worried friends are desperate to hear from him, and are tying to get hold of the construction worker.
One, who asked not to be named, told the publication: ‘We don’t know what’s gone on and we haven’t spoken to him so we’re in the dark.’
A second added: ‘We just found out when it came on the press. We are as shocked as everyone else is. It’s a shame as he was doing really well and taking the show by storm. ‘He is really popular as he’s a lovely boy.’
