Watching the 25-year-old financial advisor get bullied by Islanders, fans took to social media to express their discomfort. One wrote:

Ron possibly dislikes Lana, claims fans

Ron and Lana are the most searched Winter Love Island contestants and have a fair chance of winning the show. Meanwhile, a significant section on the internet believes that Ron dislikes Lana after his ‘sly’ remarks to her in the new baby challenge, reported The Sun.

Ron told Lana that she’s done nothing good for their baby and implied that her behaviour was ‘unattractive.’ Love Island fans were quick to analyse the subtext behind it and said:

Ron doesn't like Lana and I can't be convinced otherwise.
I’m sensing a bit of truth in all of Ron’s snarky remarks towards Lana with the baby.
