Love Island UK Explodes on X as Megan and Conor’s Hideaway Twist Sparks Fan Outrage

Love Island UK Trends Worldwide After Hideaway Shocker

The hit reality show Love Island UK is once again dominating social media trends—this time for all the wrong reasons. After the latest episode aired on June 26, 2025, fans took to X (formerly Twitter) in a storm of emotions, pushing #LoveIslandUK into global trending territory with over 23,000+ mentions in just a few hours.

🧨 Megan and Conor’s Hideaway Move Sparks Uproar

At the heart of the backlash is Megan Forte Clarke, who shocked both the villa and viewers by sneaking off to the Hideaway with Conor Phillips, just hours after a heated terrace kiss. Their rendezvous blindsided the other islanders, particularly Tommy Bradley and Emily, both of whom were deeply affected emotionally.

The moment was immediately clipped, meme’d, and debated across social platforms.

😡 Fans Accuse Megan of “Manipulation” and “Gaslighting”

The backlash has been especially fierce. Viewers have called Megan:

• “Gaslighter of the season”

• “Manipulative”

• “Fake crier”

One viral post with over 4,500 likes reads:

“Megan crying while plotting in the Hideaway with Conor is the most insufferable thing I’ve ever seen on Love Island UK.”

Another fan tweeted:

“She gaslit Tommy for two days and now this?? GET HER OUT.”

The hashtag #GetMeganOut also began trending shortly after the episode ended.

😭 Emotional Toll on Emily Draws Sympathy

Meanwhile, Emily’s tearful breakdown after seeing Conor move on so quickly has become a rallying point for fans. Viewers praised her authenticity and expressed heartbreak over her situation, calling for more support from fellow islanders.

“Protect Emily at all costs,” one user posted.
“She deserves better,” another added, garnering over 1,200 retweets.
