LOVE Island fans have shared a wild theory that Ruchee had a boyfriend when she applied for the show – after a telling comment she made on the launch night.
The 24-year-old beautician left viewers puzzled last night when she revealed on the show that she had been single for four months.

One viewer picked up on Ruchee’s comment and wrote on Twitter: “Single 4 months means you wrote your love island application in the relationship. Her ex deffo text her safe flight x.”
The tweet went viral with other fans wading in on the debate.
One said: “Her ex needs to come In as a bombshell for revenge.”
A third typed: “No like your ex helped you fill out that application!”
Before heading into the villa, Ruchee told ITV: “I’m single and looking for love, and it’s the perfect opportunity for me to find someone.
“I’m a relationship kind of girl, but so far it’s not worked out for me. So I’m looking forward to hopefully finding the right person in the Villa.”
When asked about icks, she said: “Guys with no ambition. I also get the ick if I see a guy wearing white jeans and red trainers.
“Another one is super skinny jeans when they look like leggings. Fashion is such an important thing for me. If I go on a date and the guy isn’t wearing something I like, I’m going home.”
Ruchee last night found herself in a tricky spot after she tried to escape her couple, putting Mehdi at risk of being dumped from the villa.
In Monday’s launch episode the 10 new singletons were matched by a public vote, but host Maya Jama asked any girl interested in new bombshell Zachariah to step foward.
Both Jess and Ruchee stepped forward, but awkwardly the Love Island host then revealed they still had to spend one night in their current couples.
Love Island airs at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
