All Stars fans work out ‘real’ reason Ron quit the villa – and it’s NOT because he didn’t find love
LOVE Island fans claim they have worked out the “real” reason why Ron quit All Stars – and it’s NOT because he didn’t find love
Last night Ron, 27, shocked fans when he decided he’d had enough of villa life, declaring he “couldn’t find a connection”.

“I know we’ve just lost Scott [who quit the villa on Sunday], and I know it’s s**t, but it is my time,” he told everyone.
“There’s only so much that I can do, sitting in the sun, just sort of staring at the door for the right person.
“I just don’t know whether that right person is going to come in for me so I am going to go tonight.”
Ron previously told the boys of the decision: “My time is done… I think, not having a couple, not having, like that strong connection with anyone, I’m a very logical person.”
“It’s like, what chance is that right person gonna walk through the door? I want to leave on a happy note.”
However, some fans aren’t buying this as the reason he wanted to leave.
They now have a theory that he knew Samie Elishi was set to head into the villa as a bombshell.
The pair famously didn’t get on, when they both appeared on Winter Love Island back in 2023.
Taking to a social media forum, one fan wrote: “Ron probably left because he knew Samie was coming in.
“She was vile to him towards the end of their series.”
While another agreed: “Don’t know if he knew she was coming in but yes you’re right, Sammie pretty much isolated Ron towards the end of that series, it was uncomfortable viewing.”
THE EX FILES
Meanwhile, immediately after Ron announced he was leaving on last night’s All Stars, his ex-girlfriend Lana Jenkins appeared to take a swipe at him.
It came after she shared a picture of herself enjoying a drink in the bar.

Fans quickly commented that it appeared to be a swipe at Ron, with her “setting the bar high” for him when he returned to All Stars.
“Another Ron dig?? ,” wrote one fan, prompting another to respond: “he literally stated his bar is high, she was how high the bar was set at.. it’s the truth far from a dig ”
“What a indirect” laughed another, while a fourth said: “Well that’s not Cryptic! ;)”
RON’S LOVE ISLAND JOURNEY
During his first time in the villa, Ron found himself in demand – first coupling up with Lana before he was “stolen” in a recoupling by Tanyel Revan.
He remained with Tanyel for the next couple of weeks, but ultimately returned to Lana, with the pair making it to the final together.
The pair were runners up of the Winter 2023 series, with Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan – who are now engaged to be married – taking home the win.
However, Lana and Ron split three months later, with Ron later commenting that he didn’t enjoy a relationship in the public eye as it “ruined it”.
He told The Sun at the time: “The world is a bit nuts, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, and if it was in another world it might have worked.”
Ahead of entering All Stars, Ron said he would flat out quit if she walked in as a bombshell, saying he couldn’t watch her crack on with other men in front of him.

PGA Tour veteran takes aim at Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods’ TGL schedule
PGA Tour veteran Charley Hoffman has expressed his frustration with a number of elite level golfers in an open letter to the membership.
In the letter to PGA Tour members, Hoffman shared his disappointment at an apparent lack of commitment to the US-based circuit by some of the tour’s players.
The letter, shared by Golf.com’s Sean Zak, addresses pace of play, the effectiveness of the Aon Swing 5 initiative, and a perceived lack of commitment from some players to the Tour’s core events.
Hoffman’s criticised individuals who, while advocating for fewer tournaments, still manage to play in non-PGA Tour events such as the TGL or the DP World Tour’s Race to Dubai.
He stated” “If we truly care about strengthening our Tour, we should be supporting as many PGA Tour events as we can.
“Many of you keep saying you want to play fewer events, yet you still find time for TGL, Race to Dubai, and other non-PGA Tour events, and that’s going to continue regardless of field size.
Just last week, AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am winner Rory McIlory called for fewer events on the PGA Tour’s rota.
Six-time Race to Dubai winner reckons the PGA Tour has been diminished due to the number of events on the schedule.
He also believes the game is oversaturated for the consumer before calling for an NFL-style, shorter season.
He said in 2023 that he played too few events before upping his schedule last year.
He said: “I think it [the tour] already has been diminished.
“I think there’s space for all of this.
“Yeah, I can see when the golf consumer might get a little fatigued of everything that’s sort of available to them.
“So to scale it back a little bit and maybe have a little more scarcity in some of the stuff that we do, like the NFL, I think mightn’t be a bad thing.
“But look, I would much rather sit down and watch real golfers play real tournaments and that’s just my opinion.
“That to me is more entertaining. But I understand that other people want something different and that’s totally fine as well.”
The Northern Irishman’s comments may be perceived as contradictory by some after the launch of the simulator TGL league in January.
Four-time major winner McIlroy is one of the founders, alongside golf legend Tiger Woods.
Hoffman also questions the recent emergence of Signature events and closed off fields in recent years on the tour.
He added: “The best competition happens when the best players go head-to-head in a deep, competitive field — not in small, limited-entry events that leave deserving players on the outside looking in.
“This Tour was built on open competition, where anyone with the game to compete has a chance to prove it against the best.
“That’s what has made our Tour special for generations, and we need to keep pushing for that.
“At the end of the year, only 100 of us will keep our cards. We all start the season at zero in the FedEx Cup Point standings, and every single one of us has the chance to be the FedEx Cup champion.
“Let’s come together, put on a great show for our fans by giving them the strongest competitions, and keep the PGA Tour moving in the right direction.”
Gregg Wallace returns to social media and responds to fan comments after MasterChef axe
GREGG Wallace has returned to social media after he quit MasterChef last year.
In November 2024, Gregg Wallace left fans stunned when he unexpectedly stepped down from his role as a host on MasterChef.
Gregg Wallace made some protein pancakes on social media amid his comeback[/caption] Fans were overjoyed that he made a comeback to social media[/caption] The yummy pancakes were a hit with his followers[/caption] Gregg even replied to some fans in the comments section[/caption]Gregg had co-hosted MasterChef since 2005, with him stepping down after multiple complaints against him emerged.
Complaints were made against Gregg, 60, that alleged he had exhibited inappropriate behaviour and had made sexualised comments.
After the complaints emerged and the scandal exploded, Gregg stopped posting on social media.
His last post was on November 27, which was one day before the scandal hit headlines.
And now Gregg has made a comeback to social media with a recipe video tutorial.
Taking to his Instagram page to share a video on how to make some protein pancakes, Gregg shared the video and wrote a caption that read: “Easy n Healthy Gregg Wallace Health.”
Fans went wild in the comments section, with many overjoyed that he had made a comeback to the app.
One fan penned: “Here he is! Good to have you back pal,” to which Gregg responded with: “Yo x”.
“Ah you back. My heart could not be happier Greg. Missed your cooking,” said a second.
A third then swooned: “Nice to see you back on here Gregg.”
While a fourth wrote: “Good to see you post again Greg. Missed your daily posts. Hope you and the family are well.”
“So pleased to see this post. We’ve missed you,” said a fifth.
A sixth person then added: “Good to see you again old chap! Looks delicious. Will give this a go at the weekend!”
While a seventh said: “Hello Mr Wallace welcome back.”
Gregg Wallace - MasterChef scandal in Brief
GREGG Wallace has stepped down from his MasterChef hosting role after a probe into alleged inappropriate behaviour. But what's the situation?
Regular MasterChef host Gregg Wallace is currently the subject of a probe after an investigation was launched into his alleged misconduct over a number of years.
Gregg has been accused of making sexual remarks to 13 colleagues including Beeb anchor Kirsty Wark – accusations he denies.
The 60-year-old has now stepped away from the BBC show while historical misconduct allegations against him are investigated.
Yet the former greengrocer spoke out on social media to blast the “women of a certain age” who he claimed were behind the allegations.
The cooking show’s production company, Banijay UK, has said law firm Lewis Silkin would lead the investigation into Wallace’s alleged misconduct.
And an eighth penned: “Good to see you back GW. Hope you’re well pal.”
This comes after Gregg launched his own range of ‘healthy’ frozen meals to be cooked in the microwave.
He advertised his new venture via a YouTube video for his dedicated health brand platform.
In the clip, he explained: “I have been working for quite a while now on frozen ready meals from the GreggWallace.health range of recipes.
“Let’s see how we get on. I have managed to have some time at home and did some cooking.
“It’s a habit I want to get back in to – cooking for the family once a week is something that I really enjoy.”
He added: “All our meals are frozen and shipped via DPD AM Delivery Service. They will arrive frozen or within the correct temperatures to transfer straight into your freezer unless otherwise stated in product descriptions.”
Single meals will set punters back £8 or buyers could get their hands on a set of eight for £60.

THIS is the shocking moment an Iranian woman jumps onto a police car completely naked – risking the wrath of the regime’s brutal policing.
Footage shows the defiant lady shouting at armed male officers as she stands on their squad car before deciding to sit on the windshield with dozens of cars passing by the busy street.
The woman appears to be speaking to two men before[/caption]The incident reportedly took place late at night in Mashhad, Iran‘s second biggest city, in the north-east of the country.
In the explicit video, the naked woman appears to be protesting against the cops as she causes the unwanted chaos in public.
As she stands on the car’s bonnet people can be heard honking their horns as they speed past.
The car, which had been pulled over by the side of the road, was still flashing its lights as several officers surrounded the woman.
Both the front and back seat doors have been swung open as the cops plead with the woman to get down.
Upon her refusal to cooperate and jump off the car, one of the men appears to grab inside the back seat for a gun.
Another man, in what looks like camo uniform, can already be seen holding an assault rifle as he speaks to the woman.
After words are exchanged, the naked woman climbs onto the flashing lights on top of the cop car and uses it as a armrest.
As she sits with her legs open, she gestures to the traffic by flinging her arms in the air.
The woman then points at herself and shouts some more before one of the armed men circles around the car as the footage ends.
A man claiming to be the woman’s husband reportedly said the woman has now been taken into care, according to local media.
It is unclear why the woman resorted to stripping naked in the street but posts on social media claimed she was protesting against the country’s strict clothing rules for women.
Women are facing tighter restrictions than ever before in Iran with a new bill is set to toughen up regulations governing how they can dress and act in public.
The bill says that anyone found “naked, semi-naked, or wearing clothing deemed improper in public” can be arrested without question and handed over to the judicial authorities.
People refusing to comply could be banned from leaving Iran or even placed on a social media hiatus of up to two years if they post content deemed inappropriate online.
The law is yet to be passed by Tehran’s government but officers are already implementing it, claim several women.
NATIONWIDE PROTESTS
Back in November, a courageous Iranian student stripped to her underwear after she was allegedly assaulted by morality cops over her hijab.
Her clothes and headscarf were both torn during the alleged assault at the Azad University of Science and Research in Tehran, Iran International reports.
Footage shows the woman sat near-nude outside a university before being bundled violently into a car by police.
She was also reportedly accused of being mentally ill and taken to a nearby hospital.
At one point the woman throws her arms up in the air[/caption] A man with an assault rifle circles the car at the end of the video[/caption] The explicit scenes took place in front of a bust street[/caption]This “headscarf revolution” was all fuelled by the death of Mahsa Amini in 2022.
Amini died in the custody of Tehran’s “morality police” after being arrested for violating Iran’s hijab rules.
She was beaten to death for wearing an “improper” hijab on September 16.
Women of all ages ripped off their compulsory hijabs at public demonstrations in defiance of the nation’s feared morality police.
Hundreds of people were killed, including dozens of security personnel, in a brutal crackdown and thousands of protesters were arrested.
Reports of torture and death at the hands of officials have also surfaced.
It also comes as Iran was found to have slaughtered its own people in “unprecedented numbers” with executions taking place every couple of hours under the “paranoid” regime.
Official records show that the number of executions last year reached 1,000 – the highest number in 30 years and 16 percent higher than last year.
Iranian resistance group the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) warns that the real number is “significantly higher”, however, considering the regime’s use of secret executions.
The grim toll includes women, children and political prisoners – often sentenced to death without any regard to a fair trial or due process.
Iran's Morality Police
UNDER Iranian law, rooted in Sharia law, women must cover their hair with a hijab and wear long, loose-fitting clothing.
The Guidance Patrol – aka the morality police – are in charge of arresting women who violate the conservative dress code.
Tasked with ensuring Islamic morals are respected, they spend their days patrolling public spaces in vans to crack down on “improper” behaviour and clothing.
Women detained by cops are either given a warning or bundled into a van and whisked away to a “correctional facility” or a police station.
They are then lectured on how to dress before being released to their male relatives.
Since the 1980s, many women have been beaten to death by the callous morality police, or tortured into given false confessions.
Various clips this year have shown their increased presence as the country ramps up its violent crackdowns on women.
One disturbing video shows the moment Iran’s twisted morality police hurl a woman in the back of one of their patrol vans.
Before this a woman was filmed tackling a girl to the ground and attacking her as she screamed – seemingly because she hadn’t covered her hair.
Video has shown the morality police snatching women off the streets and bundling them into vans for wearing jeans in public.
Tehran announced a fresh crackdown on “anomalies” to its religious rules under the “Nour Project” in April.
The Jerusalem Post reports suggest crackdowns on behaviour have been violent.
Sexual harassment, beatings, arrests and the use of tasers have been reported around the country.
