Love Island's Sherif Lanre will not be returning to the villa after breaking the rules.

The 20-year-old chef reportedly agreed with the producers he would leave after just nine days.

A Love Island spokesman said: "After breaking the villa rules Sherif had conversations with the producers and it was mutually agreed that he would leave the Love Island villa."

Sherif said: "In a case of poor judgement, I broke the villa rules and as a result agreed with the producers that it was best for me to leave the villa."

He added: "I regret that I didn't conduct myself in the right way and, as a 20 year old guy, it's something I know I will take on board and learn from.

"I really enjoyed my time in the villa and look forward to catching up with everyone on the outside."

Sherif coupled up with Anna Vakili on the first night and the pair got steadily closer ever since.

Anna decided to stay with Sherif and chose to couple up with him again on Friday at the recoupling.

Fans have already taken to Twitter to share their shock over him getting kicked out – and they've come up with some theories of their own.

One user wrote: "Okay what has Sherif done?"

While another added: "No way! I liked Sherif."

A third fan chirped: "Sorry but Sherif has been kicked out so Anton is going to be straight in there and I'm upset."

It comes after fans of the show were baffled after Sherif disappeared from last night's episode.

Many people took to Twitter to question his whereabouts, asking if he'd gone home.

Viewers of the show are now adamant this means Anna will couple up with Anton Danyluk.

Anton showed his interest in Anna after just a few days in the villa and admitted his feelings to Sherif.

However, despite trying his best to win her over, Anna decided to couple up with Sherif – but she'll now be left single.

In Love Island history, Sherif is the second person to get booted out of the villa because of their behaviour.

Malia Arkian was the first person to get kicked out of the villa after an altercation with Kady McDermott.

Malia was soon forced to leave the show and Kady went on to bag her co-star Scott Thomas and continued to date for a number of months.

Love Island continues weekdays at 9pm on ITV2.
