Unsure? As they gazed into each others eyes Lana spoke of her ‘relief’ at still being paired up with the hunk, before appearing to mutter something under her breath, with it unclear if Ron heard
Then during a confessional Ron said: ‘Me and Lana are staying strong, she’s falling and me too, there’s nothing better than that feeling’.

‘Ron is not in love with Lana let’s not do this’.
It comes after new girl Rosie chose to couple up with Casey on Friday’s dramatic episode, leaving Claudia questioning what this means for her relationship with him.
On Sunday Claudia was in tears as she confesses to Olivia, Samie, Lana and Jessie: ‘I never thought this would happen to me, I never thought I’d get this attached.’
Despite the other girls reassuring her that the recoupling doesn’t mean the end of their romance, Claudia is unconvinced.
Later that evening the former couple caught up as Casey says to Claudia: ‘I find her attractive and I think it would be silly of me not to get to know her a bit more and that’s all it is.’

Claudia responds: ‘I know, but we were in a good place, we really were and now some pretty girl comes in and it’s just like…’
Casey replies: ‘I would never rub anything in your face, it’s literally just me wanting to get to know her a bit more.’
After a saints vs sinners challenge throws up more drama, it’s time for Rosie and Casey to catch up and talk about the new bombshell’s arrival at the Villa.
‘So much has happened in the space of an evening, you’ve definitely come in and made an impact for sure,’ Casey tells her.
Rosie replies: ‘Do you think?’ Casey adds: ‘I think so, well for me you have.’
Casey tells her: ‘It’s given me a lot to think about.’
Friday night’s episode was full of drama when the islanders got a shocking text asking them to gather around the firepit, where they were then told that a recoupling would take place.
And Rosie and Keanan had first dibs as they were allowed to make their decisions before the rest of the girls chose which boy to couple up with.

Rosie picked Casey while Keenan picked Claudia.
Unable to hide her disappointment, she wiped a tear from her eye while attempting to hold it together during the recoupling.
New girl Rosie had made her interest in Casey very clear earlier in the day, who, to his partner’s dismay, admitted to being keen to explore the connection.
The recoupling came after Claudia had already had an emotional day, which saw her tell Casey she was closed off to getting to know anyone else – while he admitted he wasn’t.
Following the news that he would be getting to know Rosie, who had just entered the villa, Claudia broke into tears while being comforted by the girls.
Rosie arrived to the villa alongside new boy Keanan, who had taken Samie and Jessie on dates upon entering, but also expressed interest in Claudia.
But the feelings didn’t appear reciprocated, with Claudia appearing set on Casey as she got emotional over his openness to explore.
