India’s Love Island: All Stars stint was short-lived[/caption]

During Sunday night’s episode of Love Island: All Stars, new bombshell Tina Stinnes shocked viewers when she stole Scott Thomas from brunette beauty India.

India was told by host Maya Jama that she should pack her bags and prepare to leave the villa immediately, with the star now speaking out following her axe.

Speaking exclusively to The Sun about the hunky guys in the villa, India revealed who she secretly fancied – and shared why she never made a move.

“I think if Luca was a bit older then maybe Luca,” India spilled when asked if any other Islanders caught her eye.

She added: “I did think he was really funny. He’s gorgeous, but he is very young.”

India then added: “I think Luca was struggling because obviously last time he went in, everyone was a similar age to him, so this time maybe it was a little bit harder for him.

Luca is now coupled up with newcomer Grace Jackson, but India told us how she thought he might be suited to Tina.

When asked if she thought her ex Scott could go the distance with Tina, she said: “I personally think that maybe she was more suited to Luca, but they had a kiss last night, so who am I to judge, maybe.”

When Tina stole Scott from India, social media erupted because viewers were so angry with the way in which she was dumped in such a brutal way.

Tina’s close pal from the 2016 series of the show then spoke out about how she would have been feeling “so bad and guilty” for dumping a girl from the island.

Olivia Bowen, who starred alongside Tina in their series of Love Island back in season two, took to Instagram and said: “Honestly, I know Tina will be feeling so bad and guilty sending someone home.

“When I tell you she wouldn’t hurt a fly. She’s literally a little dot.”

She then gushed over Tina’s increased confidence this year, saying: “I loveeee seeing her confidence this season though. She’s grown so much since season 2!

“Excited to see what happens next for her. With Scott or Luca.”

Tina first entered the Love Island villa as a bombshell on day 20 of the 2016 series.

The then 21-year-old was then dumped on day 40 after Adam Maxted decided to couple up with Katie Salmon.

Since entering the 2025 All Stars series, Tina has been branded “unrecognisable” because of how different she looks after almost nine years since her first stint.

ARSENAL fans have spotted the moment Mikel Arteta shot Michael Oliver a “death stare” after the ref’s red card blunder.

The Gunners boss was left “absolutely fuming” after Myles Lewis-Skelly was dismissed in the 1-0 win over Wolves on Saturday.

Oliver gave the teenager a straight red after he felled Wolves defender Matt Doherty on the counter.

The “ridiculous” decision has since been called out by Arteta, Match of the Day pundits and even the former head of the PGMOL Keith Hackett.

Footage has now emerged following the contest showing Arteta shaking hands with Oliver after the final whistle.

The Arsenal boss moves away from the officials to go celebrate with the travelling support from North London.

But just as he goes to do so, Arteta stops in his tracks and looks intensely back at the 39-year-old whistler.

The footage quickly went viral on X, where it was viewed over 325,000 times.

One fan wrote in response: “I would REALLY like to know what Michael Oliver said to Arteta here. That pause and look back, he was evaluating his next move.”

Another said: “Always fear the Arteta death stare.”

While a third commented: “Why did he shake his hand in the first place? Seriously.”

And a fourth added: “No Arsenal player or official should ever shake Oliver’s hand, the man should be left with no doubt about how the club feel about him.”

Arteta attempted to hold his emotions in check following the narrow win on the road, which keeps the Gunners six points behind leaders Liverpool.

But he still let his feelings be known in a tense post-match interview with Sky.

Arteta raged: “It is that clear and I will leave it to you guys.

“I am absolutely fuming. But I will leave it with you, it is that obvious that I don’t think my words are going to help.

“[Lewis-Skelly] is really happy now that the team won and found a way to win it.

“He is very worried about what’s coming next because he’s strongly feeling that there was nothing to do with the action.”

Lewis-Skelly will now face a three-game ban for receiving a straight red card.

But former ref Hackett – who was a top whistler between 1981 and 1991 – believes it’s Oliver who needs time away from the field.

Speaking on TalkSPORT’s Sunday Edition with Shaun Custis and Henry Winter, Hackett said: “I’d be admitting this morning that this is a major error, that you don’t expect the alleged number one referee to make.

“He’s on top of the incident. I think he’s too close and so I think he requires operational advice.

“I’d be saying to Michael Oliver, I think you need a rest and I think you’re not going to see another game in the Premier League for a couple of weeks.”

Hackett was also speechless that Darren England – who was on VAR during the Wolves vs Arsenal game – had been allocated a spot on the official’s list for Sunday’s clash between Crystal Palace and Brentford.

He continued: “Darren England’s allocated a game this afternoon at Crystal Palace. 

“So as VAR, he would not be on that game.

“I’m quite clear that there needs to be seen to be a level of accountability.”

The Premier League has since issued its own statement defending Oliver and VAR for the decision made on Saturday.

It read: “The referee’s call of a red card for Lewis-Skelly was checked and confirmed by VAR, who deemed his challenge to have been serious foul play.”

The statement came after scathing criticism of the decision across the media.

BBC 5Live pundit Pat Nevin said labelling such a challenge serious foul play was setting “a bar so low even a limbo dancing snake couldn’t get under it”.

While former Tottenham star Jamie O’Hara wrote on X: “I’m all for Arsenal having a beast but that is never ever a red card, one of the worst decisions I’ve ever seen.”

STANDING naked before a small, dishevelled 67-year-old man, in his dirty dressing gown, Miranda felt scared and vulnerable, knowing what was about to happen. 

But brain-washed, she felt compelled to let Gregorian Bivolaru, who she had been conditioned to believe was ‘God on Earth’, have sex with her to receive a higher spiritual awakening.

“I thought, ‘I don’t want to do this.’” says the 30-something-year-old woman from Oxfordshire, who is not being fully identified. “He looked so much older and frailer than I had imagined.

“I was physically repulsed by this person. I was shocked because we had been told so much about how this was a perfect living example of a tantric master.”

What followed in the dirty bed in his squalid two-bedroom apartment on the outskirts of Paris was both sickening and bizarre.

Closing her eyes, Miranda recited the ‘consecration ritual’ she had been taught – “Lord God, I offer up to you, here and now, totally and unconditionally, all the fruits of this action.”

The sexual routine followed rules – 40 minutes of foreplay that only he could perform, then penetrative sex in seven different positions, each supposedly relating to the seven tantric chakra points of energy around the body.

Miranda adds: “I went into autopilot, feeling completely disconnected and repulsed. After three of the positions he said, ‘You have lost your erotic energy. We are going to stop.’”

Miranda’s journey to this degrading point began in the most ordinary way possible when, two years before, as an English teacher living in London, she joined a yoga class.

Her remarkable story is told in the BBC Radio 4 podcast World of Secrets: The Bad Guru.

It follows how Miranda, a respectable, educated woman was lured into a sex cult that would place her at the centre of an international trafficking and sexual exploitation ring, in the bed of the movement’s so-called guru, becoming a topless masseur and being put to work as a sex cam girl.

Miranda was finding her job as a teacher in London stressful when, in an effort to find some spiritual and mental wellbeing she joined the Tara Yoga Centre near Old Street in 2017.

The centre promoted the teachings of Romanian-born Bivolaru, and was part of the the Movement for Spiritual Integration into the Absolute (MISA) it had various branches in the UK and 28 other countries.

She says: “It felt a really safe and welcoming space. People in the reception were smiley and friendly.”

As well as basic classes, it offers tantric yoga – a spiritual aspect encompassing love and relationships.

For weeks, Miranda attended a one-hour tantric class, which she says made her feel “good” and “amazing”.

In the spring of 2018, she was invited to attend a weekend retreat in a beautiful country house in Somerset, organised by the Centre.

She explains: “The course was called ‘The Polarity Retreat’. Polarity is one of their tantric theories that there is a very binary concept that men and women have very different needs, qualities  and energies and that by separating them, as much as possible, you increase the magnetism between them.”

At the house, the men and women were split into separate groups – a tactic to ” increase the magnetism between them.”

After some meditative yoga with the women’s group, Miranda was surprised when things took an overtly sexual turn – learning about make-up, clothes and how to look sexy.

“We were encouraged to dance very sexually to a song,” she says.

Later, they were told to surprise the men by doing the sexy dance for them they had learned.

She says: “Some of the teachers wore just their underwear or took their underwear off when they were in there. I wore a short skirt and a top.

“I danced close to my tantric teacher from London and I remember him looking directly at my crotch.

“I was shocked because it was very much in conflict with everything we had been taught about spiritual sexuality where teachers, in particular, were on a higher level and understood women and worshipped them and didn’t sexualise them.”

Group sex

Although she felt uncomfortable with the sexual part of the course, Miranda felt the retreat gave her “new levels of confidence because I got used to being outside my comfort zone.”

In the summer of 2018, she was excited to be invited to a yoga festival in a coastal resort in Romania for two weeks.

By now, she was getting used to the movement’s unorthodox ways and accepted supplying a half-naked photograph of herself prior to the event.

This was so that the great and mystical Gregorian Bivolaru – who wouldn’t be attending the event in person but was there in spirit – could “read her aura.”

At the reception, Miranda was asked to leave her passport and mobile phone which would be returned on departure.

She adds: “The women then pulled out a bible, placed my hand on it and gave me a sheet of paper to read out words vowing that I wouldn’t tell anyone about what happened inside the villa and that if I did I would face the spiritual and health consequences of my demonic action.”

What was going to happen in this villa to warrant this demonic vow?

There were around 150 women staying there and thousands of others attending. In the centre of the complex was a huge marquee pumping out dance music and inside, people sat on wooden benches, silently meditating.

“The music involved certain sexual noises and moans and it was set to a compilation of soft porn videos as part of a programme of sexual boundary stretching”, she says.

The evenings were given up to the bizarre Miss Shakti competition. Shakti is a tantric word for femininity.

I went into autopilot, feeling completely disconnected and repulsed

Miranda

Miranda says it was “a kind of hyper-sexualised Miss World.” She watched, wide-eyed as things became increasingly sexual with bikini parades, nudity and even simulated sex.

When she was asked if she would like to meet Bivolaru at some time in the future, she jumped at the chance.

As the festival came to a close, guests staying at the women’s villa took part in an organised love-making ritual.

Miranda says: “The windows were closed, curtains drawn. They put down a lot of black tarpaulin with mattresses on top of that. 

“Three women stood there naked, painted in gold. They were playing evocative meditative music and then the ritual started.”

Now, seeing her family and friends less frequently, Miranda was still absorbed by the movement back in London.

She even worked alongside her tantric teachers at a topless massage parlour, six minutes away from the Centre.

“I didn’t like using body parts, especially breasts, to massage guests but there was an ecstatic sense of overcoming something that you were nervous about that we were told was good for us on a spiritual level,” she says.

In June 2019, Miranda got word that Bivolaru, was ready to meet her and there would also be something called “an initiation.”

Around the same time she learned he had been sentenced to six years in prison for having sex with an underage girl in Romania.

Agnes Arabela Marques, 33, would later reveal she was one of the underage girls he abused, when she was 15, and she revealed he believed he could achieve a high level of spirituality if he slept with 1,000 virgins.

She said: “Bivolaru claimed that, if I had sex with him as a yoga master, I could achieve superior levels of tantric spirituality.”

But at the time, Miranda was told by other followers that he was facing political persecution in Romania. 

She was unaware that he in hiding and was wanted in Finland on five charges of aggravated trafficking of human beings and four charges of sexual abuse.

Miranda found herself being driven across Europe with three other women, and made to wear dark glasses and a hat over her eyes so she wouldn’t see where she was going.

They were taken to a three-storey ‘holding house’ where they waited with various other women for the guru to contact them, while being made to watch streamed porn.

After two and a half weeks, she and two other women heard that Bivolaru was ready to meet them.

“We were told to shower and shave all of our body hair, not use any deodorant, perfume or creams, and to pack a toothbrush and a couple of changes of underwear”, she says.

Blindfolded, they were taken to an apartment block where the women slept in the second bedroom until Miranda finally was called into Bivolaru squalid bed, surrounded by fairy lights.

After the sexual initiation, she was taken to another holding house in the city to record a naked testimonial video for others to watch.

Miranda also signed a declaration saying she had never been raped by Bivolaru or any other person or been trafficked or psychologically manipulated.

She was then taken to another house in Prague, for what Bivolaru had called The Garden of Miracles, where huge transformations will take place.

It turned out to be women performing as cam girls – live feeding themselves in lingerie, dancing, stripping and touching themselves provocatively for the camera to paying customers.

Miranda worked on the webcam into the early hours in a basement room of the villa. 

She says: “If you were not smiling or active enough, one of the coordinators would come in and tell you off. And there were fines.

“Leaving the fridge open was a ten euro fine, an unwashed plate was 25 euros, leaving a tissue in your pocket when you gave your laundry to them to do was a 150 euro fine and being late to work, even by one minute, was 500 euros.”

Despite this, she still felt she was doing the right thing in order to reach heightened spirituality.

After six months there she visited her parents in Oxfordshire. They had been concerned about her but mum Penny says: “she seemed happier.”

Miranda was beginning to have doubts but it wasn’t until she began talking to a man at the Oxford branch of the Tara Yoga Centre that her eyes were fully opened.

“He said, ‘You know it’s a cult, right? You know that you are brainwashed?’ I was extremely angry at first and I didn’t talk to him for a few days but on some levels I was ready to hear it. And over the next few months I thought about it.”

On New Year’s Eve, Miranda was at her parent’s, in her old bedroom watching a TV programme about cults.

She says: “I knew I had to leave and to tell people. To admit to myself and then to my mum that it was a sex cult was extremely painful and embarrassing.”

In November 2023 Bivolaru was arrested by French police and charged with human trafficking, organised kidnapping, rape and organised abuse of weakness by members of a sect.

In a raid, which also saw 40 of his followers arrested and £500,000 seized, police found 58 women living in appalling conditions in various properties, with no hygiene facilities, and many were malnourished.

The investigation continues.

STEPHEN BUNTING has hit back at critics of his so-called “weird” behaviour when playing Luke Littler.

Fan-favourite Bunting, 39, faced off against teen sensation Littler during the World Darts Championship.

The Bullet was outclassed by the Nuke in a 6-1 thrashing in the semi-finals.

However, Bunting got his revenge at the Dutch Darts Masters as he beat Littler 7-6 in the semi-finals.

But the Liverpool-supporting darts ace has been criticised by rivals for his “weird behaviour” when playing Littler after he was seen fist-bumping him several times during their clash at Alexandra Palace.

Pal Dave Chisnall had remarked: “I’m not one for gamesmanship and you won’t hear me slagging folk off, but I did think the fist bumps after every set was a bit weird.”

In response, Bunting told oche180: “He’s a 17-year-old lad who’s got the world at his feet, and he’s still learning the game.

“I’m very respectful for what he’s doing for our game and I hope he continues for a lot of years, because he’s a lot more money to our sport.

“On another note, I’ve known him personally since he was a little kid.”

Despite the criticism, Bunting is choosing to bite the bullet and see it as a positive thing that people are talking more about a fist-bump than his performance.

He continued: “It does annoy me a bit that people pick up upon that sort of thing, that shows how well I’m playing, that they have got to pick up on a fist-bump rather than a bad performance.”

Bunting has been in electric form of late, despite losing to Rob Cross in the Dutch Masters final last night.

And he has had a legion of support backing him up.

He said of the support: “The fans are a massive part of what we do and getting them involved, the Bunting mental chants, Walking in a Bunting Wonderland, it really does help when you’re up on that stage on your own.

“It can be such a lonely place, but they get me through so many games.”

The next event on the darts calendar is the Winmau World Masters being held in Milton Keynes.

World No.5 Bunting won the title last year by beating Michael van Gerwen 11-7 in the final and will face a qualifying opponent in the opening round this year.

Littler, now World No.2, will similarly face a qualifier in the opening round.

The winner will pocket £100,000 in prize money.
