FORMER Love Islanders Tyrique and Toby have just let it slip that Shaq’s ex Tanya is in holding to enter the villa as a shock bombshell.
She’s reportedly waiting in South Africa for the moment she’s due to come in.
Tanya is allegedly waiting to enter the villa
Former Islanders Tyrique and Toby leaked the news online
Speaking about the news, Tyrique shared: “So a little birdie told me that Tanya’s in South Africa just waiting to go in.
“But hey you didn’t… [hear it from me].”
Toby interrupted his mate, jokingly calling him out on leaking spoilers.
“Now you’re going to ruin her chances of going in, they’re going to tell her, ‘hey you’re not going in.’”
Shaq Muhammad and Tanya Manhenga coupled up on the first day of Love Island season nine and appeared to be smitten.
They were the first couple on the season to say that they love each other, though their villa romance wasn’t without its twists and turns.
When Casa Amor came around, Tanya decided to ditch Shaq and go off with bombshell Martin Akinola.
Though the new pairing didn’t last long as Tanya realised she still had feelings for Shaq, and they subsequently recoupled.
Tanya and Shaq finished Love Island in fourth place, and continued to date after filming for the show came to a close.
They eventually moved in together and even at times sparked engagement rumours.
But their romance sadly wasn’t meant to be, as the duo called time on their relationship after a year and a half.
The Sun exclusively reported on the split at the time, alleged to have been sparked by some of Shaq’s “behaviour” while on a lads’ holiday with fellow Love Island star Dami Hope.
The insider said: “Tanya was not happy about some of Shaq’s behaviour on holiday. His communication really wasn’t what it should have been.
“He was seen looking very close to another girl – nothing was going on but it looked bad.”
