Love Island Bombshell Alert: Shaq's Ex Reportedly Ready
23 Jan
Summary
- Former Love Island stars suggest Shaq Muhammed's ex is joining.
- Tanya Manhenga is reportedly in South Africa for the show.
- Fans analyze social media for clues about Tanya's potential entry.

Speculation is rife that Tanya Manhenga, the ex-partner of Love Island contestant Shaq Muhammed, could be the next bombshell to enter the villa. This rumor gained traction after former Islanders Toby Aromolaran and Tyrique Hyde suggested on a Twitch stream that Tanya is currently in South Africa, seemingly poised to join the show.
Fans have actively sought evidence to support these claims, with one social media user pointing out that Tanya recently re-posted an older Instagram photo. This has led to speculation that someone else might be managing her account while she is potentially in production for the show. The timing of this potential entry could create significant drama for Shaq, who recently coupled up with AJ Bunker but has also been interacting with Helena Ford.
Tanya and Shaq were a prominent couple in the 2021 series, even reaching the point of saying 'I love you.' Their relationship continued post-show, including moving in together, but eventually ended after about a year and a half. Reports at the time suggested their split was due to Shaq's behavior during a holiday.
