Love Island was reportedly thrown into chaos when a ‘destructive’ bushfire broke out next to the South African village on Saturday night.
An evacuation plan for the islanders on the £1.2 million rig was allegedly put in place as fire crews battled a blaze just two fields away.
Show bosses were thought to be on “high alert” as flames roared for three hours while the ITV2 reality show was filmed.
said a source Sun: ‘The winds were quite strong, so there was concern that the fire could spread towards the village, but the fire crews managed to control it.
“Naturally, the well-being of everyone in the program is the top priority and an evacuation plan has been put in place if necessary.
Uh-oh! Love Island was reportedly thrown into chaos when a ‘destructive’ bushfire broke out next to the South African village on Saturday night.
“Wildfires are not uncommon in South Africa, but that doesn’t make them any less of a concern as they can be so destructive. A local fire team is now monitoring the situation to ensure the safety of everyone in the surrounding area.
When contacted by MailOnline for comment, an ITV representative said: ‘A fire brigade has attended a fire in the local area.
The incident is not on the Villa grounds. The cast and crew of Love Island are completely safe.
It comes after an unseen clip from last week saw the boys get up to some hilarious antics when they decided to dress up as the girls.
They donned glamorous outfits and makeup during a clip shown on the Love Island spin-off Unseen Bits on Saturday night.
Casey could be seen donning an orange and white tie-dye ensemble, with one of the guys yelling that he had ‘back’ in the two-piece.
She then squatted on the ground to show off the flexibility of the outfit, while the rest of the group yelled ‘yeah girl!’
Tom admitted that he didn’t fit any of the girls’ clothes, before donning a set of blue knit cufflinks, leaving his arms free as they didn’t fit.

She then tried to put on Tanya’s blue metallic boots, however there was no way she could fit her much larger feet into them.
Showing off the results of his finished look, which included a pink Jacquemus hat, Tom strutted into the bedroom with a chorus of ‘strut, strut’.
Then one yelled, ‘Tommy, you sexy bad boy!’
Once in their outfits, the guys sat down at the makeup station to apply their glamour, with Casey musing, “Fuck, I hope Kai doesn’t bother me tonight.”
Will adds, “I just don’t want the drama.”
As Casey says, “Trust me, if I have to call him for one more chat, that’s it.”
They then revealed the final look at Beach Hut, Casey saying, “Princess Kelsey is here to create some drama.” Trust me, I’m not taking anyone prisoner.
In his element! It comes after an unseen clip from last week saw the boys get up to some hilarious antics when they decided to dress up as the girls.
Will made fun of Tom’s antics on the terrace, saying “I feel like Tom goes on the terrace with me too much.” You know him every time he goes up there, you know exactly what he wants!
Casey quipped, “I don’t care if I’m stepping on my toes.”
Tom added: “We’re not girls’ girls.”
While Will concluded, “Yeah, we’re not girls, we’re here to have a good time.” We are here to take the children and we are here to kill them!
After airing during the episode on Saturday night, the unseen clip was also shared on Love Island’s social channels.
On Instagram, many took to the comments section to beg the show for more clips like this on the main show.
Some complained that the ‘endless talks’ between couples were boring and would rather see funny moments like this on the show.
