But Love Island fans were quick to accuse Tanya Manhenga of double standards on Tuesday after she insisted she ‘didn’t have the opportunity’ to tell Martin Akinola about her kiss with Shaq Muhammad.
The brunette was furious when Martin branded her a liar for failing to come clean about her kiss before her speech for Shaq, leaving him high and dry.
But an angry Tanya insisted she’d never lied to him and just hadn’t been given the chance to tell Martin about the kiss.
However, viewers were quick to call her out by noting that Tanya could have told Martin the truth the morning after the kiss happened, as they both ended up having breakfast together.

As Martin heads over to Tanya and Shaq he says: ‘Tanya, can we have a chat? Shaq, you know I have no problems with you, it’s all good.’
Tanya and Martin head to the fire pit as he says: ‘When I was speaking to you, you never told me you were a liar. You’re not sincere, you made me look like I was dumb, you’re a liar.’
Tanya asks: ‘Is that what you had to get off your chest?’ and later furiously told Martin to ‘grow up’ and ‘act his age.’
‘You’ve said your piece, yeah, you’re not going to call me a liar because you’re bitter. I didn’t tell you about the kiss, I didn’t have the opportunity, I am not a liar
‘If you’re upset about the way things were I apologise but I had to go with my heart.’
Tanya’s insistence that she ‘didn’t have the opportunity’ to tell Martin about her kiss with Shaq, was a statement with which many viewers took issue.
