In a twist that no one saw coming, Connor Trott and Moira Tumas coupled up during the latest recoupling ceremony on 'Love Island'. Connor and Mackenzie Dipma's relationship has been a hot topic in the villa, ever since she decided to recouple with Jalen Noble post-Casa Amor, while he decided to stay loyal to Mackenzie. Connor was obviously hurt by Mackenzie's decision to recouple, but he apparently didn't take too long to quickly bounce back from his heartbreak. 

On the latest episode, we saw Connor suddenly showing interest in Mackenzie's best friend in the villa- Moira. Moira and Connor could be seen expressing their interest in each other, and looking forward to see how that will pan out for them. Mackenzie on the other hand, was taken aback and shocked when she heard that her best friend and ex-boyfriend might be getting together.

Just like Mackenzie, fans too were shocked and surprised by the sudden development. Many fans began wondering about since when Moira was suddenly interested in Connor, considering they two were never shown interacting with each other. A fan tweeted, "Wait so all of a sudden moira is feeling connor? wtf did she even have a convo with mackenzie? #LoveIslandUSA." Another fan wrote, "Moira is actually a lying toxic mess and I'm over it. All of a sudden you're interested in Connor? Like Girl just stop #LoveIslandUSA." "Now why connor and moira want each other all of the sudden.. its getting weird..," commented a fan.



 



 



 

Fans also began calling out Moira for being a bad friend to Mackenzie. In an earlier episode, Moira was shown warning Kierstan Saulter not to talk to Aaron. Moira was interested in Aaron, and didn't appreciate Kierstan trying to get to know him, and firmly told her to stay away from him. So fans were amused to see Moira not hesitating coupling up with her best friend's ex. A fan shared, "Moira is a bad friend. Don’t @ me #LoveIslandUSA." Another fan expressed, "Mackenzie just called Moria her best friend and see the bullsh*t she’s doing??? Moira when tf did you start feeling Connor? F**k you man #LoveIslandUSA." 



 



 

"Moira that is meant to be this one’s best friend in the house is asking ‘Is she managing you?’ Moira you are toxic and fake. Get out of here #LoveIslandUSA," pointed out a fan. Another fan declared, "Moira is a terrible terrible friend. TERRIBLE #LoveIslandUSA."
