We didn't think Love Island Games could get any more unpredictable, but a blonde bombshell made her presence known on last night's episode in a big way!
Ariana Madix made her presence known on the November 6 episode of Love Island Games and proceeded to show off the enthusiasm and impact that made her a fan-favorite in the Vanderpump Rules universe! Let's be honest: We can't be the only ones still reeling from her unforgettable confrontation with Tom Sandoval over his affair in Season 10 of Vanderpump.
Longtime Love Island fans know Ariana Madix has been a fan of the show since its inception – and even went as far as making a cameo during this summer's season of Love Island USA. So it shouldn't have surprised viewers to witness a superfan like Ariana injecting herself into the proceedings during last night's episode!
Dressed to kill in a blue dress, Ariana arrived in style. We haven't seen that many jaws on the floor in a long time (don't think we didn't see you, Curtis)!
"I could not miss out on all the fun and games," she announced to the stunned couples. "I don't know if you know, but I'm a massive Love Island fan, and I cannot believe I'm actually getting to meet you all; it's a very exciting night for me. I've seen literally every season, every episode, so… Hi."
However, Ariana revealed she was on a mission. She came bearing news – news that would shake up the competition and turn it on its head.
After admitting she wasn't "here to fangirl," Ariana broke the bad news: She's been put in charge of the first-ever Love Island Games Re-Coupling – a reveal that caused the competitors to replace their dropped jaws with a collective look of stunned silence.
At that point, everything changed. Existing couples were no longer – new pairings were in order, much to the dismay of, well, everyone.
Ariana bestowed the honor of having the villa's newest arrival, Kyra, select whoever she wanted to be paired with. At that point, reality sunk in: Everyone would be at the mercy of an old-fashioned schoolyard dodgeball team draft!
Kyra didn't waste her time – and if we didn't know any better, we would accuse her of trying to steal Ariana's thunder in that moment – and shockingly chose Megan, effectively ending Megan's short-lived pairing with Curtis.
"We're both very competitive," Kyra revealed with a smile. "Why can't two girls take the win?"
However, Adriana wasn't done shaking up the competition. Thanks to an impromptu lottery, islanders found themselves choosing new partners – whether they wanted to or not. When the dust settled, the Love Island Games Re-Coupling was complete. In the end, new couples were established: Curtis chose Lisa, while Ray picked Imani (after a surprisingly heartfelt speech). Toby/Cely, Johnny/Jessica, Callum/Liberty, and Jack/Justine rounded out the rest of the new couples.
Not content with shuffling the deck thoroughly, Ariana had another thing to check off her agenda. Before she left, Ariana teased what the villa would be faced with the next day: A couples challenge that promised to be the most intense competition yet! Not only would the winners be crowned the new Power Couple, but the two competitors would be faced with new responsibilities to be revealed at a later time.
