LOVE Island fans poked fun at Ben after an intense conversation he had with Sabrina in the Spanish villa during Friday’s episode.
The model from Gloucester was paired with Mancunian beauty, but their relationship was rocky from the outset as Sabrina constantly questioned their chemistry.
Earlier this week, she was accused of leading Ben on in the ITV reality series, but during the latest installment, dumped him outright.
Sabrina gave a range of reasons for her decision, including telling Ben that he “dulled my sparkle.”
“We don’t speak of anything of note,” she told him as the pair argued.
Fans watching at home noticed that Ben looked devastated during the chat, but then thought it was bizarre that he outwardly agreed with Sabrina’s reasoning.
“Nah Ben looked like he was abt to cry when Shakira said he dulled her sparkle,” one Love Island fan wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Another added with a meme of a someone wearing multiple masks: “Ben telling Shakira he’s on the same page as her.”
And a third wrote alongside a skull emoji: “Ben pretending he felt the same way as Shakira.”
A fourth person commented: “Talk about different pages… not sure Shakira and Ben are even in the same book.”
Even though she’s now flying solo in the Love Island casa, Shakira may be rekindling her fling with Harry after the pair had a conversation about their future.
“I wanted to see how you were feeling, I think initially you were number one and I f****d it,” Harry told her.
They also discussed his romantic indecision as he is paired up with Helena, but also seems interested in Yasmin as well.
Sabrina told Harry: “It was you, and still is you. But it’s your behaviour for me that I can’t tolerate.”
And Harry pressed her for the potential for a second chance: “If that could possibly be arranged?”
He also told Sabrina: “You’re the one,” despite his moves on Yasmin and Helena.

But the pair seem like they’re definitely going to get close again as a teaser clip for Sunday’s episode shows them snogging.
The preview showed the Islanders playing a messy game of ‘spin the bottle’ on Sunday.
In the teaser clip’s edit, it seemed as though the Islanders were asked to snog who they’d most like to be coupled up with.
It then cut to Shakira smooching Harry as Helena and Ben looked at their current love interests with disgust.
