Having been at the centre of one of this series' two 'love triangle' storylines, Mimii Ngulube seems to have slipped into the background.

And it hasn't gone unnoticed with baffled viewers.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan demanded: "Where is Mimii? Put her on my screen now!"

Another asked: "Can someone tell me where Mimii is. She hasn't had any screen time for days."

A third tagged in the official Love Island account, saying: "Where is Mimii @loveisland?"

And someone else wrote: "Mimii is rarely getting any screen time, I hate it."

Until recently, Mimii was at the centre of one of this year's biggest love triangle storylines after the arrival of bombshell Uma Jammeh.

The mental health nurse was left hanging on for days after Uma's arrival, as her love interest Ayo Odukoya bounced back and forth between them.

Despite having an initial connection with Mimii, Ayo struggled to decide whether he wanted to continue to pursue her or move on with Uma.

Uma eventually decided to step back, before picking fellow bombshell Omar Nyame in the latest recoupling.

Mimii was then able to snare Ayo for herself. But since then, her on-screen presence has dramatically dwindled.

Fans now believe they have worked out the reason for Uma's sudden U-turn on Ayo.

Sharing their thoughts on X, formerly known as Twitter, one viewer thinks Uma has blown cold in a case of "reverse psychology".

The viewer said: "Uma backing away from the triangle with Ayo & Mimii was reverse psychology that may actually work… Ayo likes the drama and will probably see Uma as more of a challenge."

Meanwhile, the villa has once again been thrown into chaos after the arrival of three new bombshells - including Joey Essex's ex-gifriend.
