@Dancingonmoonlight

Has anyone looked at Lucinda's Instagram?

I just looked at it and she is a child. It’s so wrong to put her on LI. Her parents should have tried to stop her.

Men drooling over her, I don’t care if she is ‘legally’ the age. It’s disgusting. It is irresponsible to put someone like her in there. She acts like a kid because she is little more than one. I thought the producers were going to be responsible this year.

I have just looked at her Instagram.

Like with the other girls, wtf does she keep doing to her lips? Shock

Lucinda, and a Bratz doll.... Spot the difference. Confused

First look is up. Bit of drama with Kaz and Toby. Toby really doesn’t help himself. Faye involved as ever. I think Teddy is good for her basically telling her to button it.

I think Toby/Danny/Hugo will be bottom boys and Chloe/Lucinda/AJ will be bottom girls

GrealishHairband · 20/07/2021 17:13

I assume boys will send a girl home and vice Versace.

GrealishHairband · 20/07/2021 17:14

Versa 🤦🏼‍♀️

VenusClapTrap · 20/07/2021 17:14

how does Lucinda’s mum feel about watching her on TV? I always think it must be so cringy for the parents watching their little babies flirting on National TV!

She was thrilled she was going on it, and massively proud of her. I haven’t spoken to her since it started though, so I don’t know how she feels about how things have panned out. I’m not a close friend! And I only know Lucinda to say hello to.

Lucinda is absolutely headturningly beautiful in real life. But she does wear far too much makeup I think! She doesn’t need it. She’s a natural beauty who hasn’t had any ‘enhancements’, but the look she goes for suggests she has, which is a shame.

As for her coming across as immature compared to others her age, I’d say she’s had a pretty sheltered and privileged upbringing, plus she has several very protective older brothers, which has no doubt all contributed to keeping her ‘young’. I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing, I was pretty naive myself at that age, but I do think it means she’s not as savvy at dealing with some of the situations she’s finding herself in as some of the others might be.

I agree with pp that she looked scared and out of her depth when Danny was being a dick - I was thinking about her mum watching that and thinking ‘oh god’.

That will be AJ and Danny though? It’s too easy to say they don’t know them as well as the others. I think Teddy said that when he pie’d AJ?
The producers might want to get rid of Danny but AJ will take the fall for it.

ItsAHardKn0ckLife1 · 20/07/2021 18:36

Had a little chuckle at “vice Versace” Grin

It doesn’t really matter what Lucinda looks like, she is a twenty one year old grown woman, the same age as half the other contestants and lives independently from her parents . She also worked as an air hostess, and now has her own online business. Irrelevant of her looks she’s not a child and is no different to Liam, Shannon, Toby, Faye or any of her other peers the same age on the show.

livingoffcoffee · 20/07/2021 19:03

Completely agree @Bluntness100
Though I did assume she was much younger, based on how she presents herself. And do think producers should have filtered her out as she just seems so out of her depth...but their casting is off across the board.

Chicchicchicchiclana · 20/07/2021 19:25

What do you mean by "boys will send a girl home and vice versa"?

I thought it was a public vote.

GrealishHairband · 20/07/2021 19:27

It is but I bet they get the bottom two or three from the public vote and then the islanders need to choose out of them. Brings way more drama!

PumpkinKlNG · 20/07/2021 19:27

They’ve allowed to islanders to pick the bottom 3 before

Bluntness100 · 20/07/2021 19:32

@livingoffcoffee, to be fair, she does come across young, but she’s making out like damn busters, she’s popular with the girls and has boys vying for her. We only see part of it.

And sometimes she acts very maturely, like not pieing Danny back and commenting she wasn’t petty. In th diary room she appears much more articulate. I think she’s simply in a situation where she’s taken aback by much of what’s occurring and thinking it through, sadly she likes to say really a lot when doing so,,,😂

unique1986 · 20/07/2021 19:41

I found the first look drama quite set up.
And Faye is very annoying.

rishisboater · 20/07/2021 19:43

Why is this thread not refreshing to the top of my threads I'm on page?!

sweatervest · 20/07/2021 19:55

i am still waiting for it to gee up a bit.
i read on instagram (the bible of everything) that apparently millie is getting pissed off with lucinda. i love millie's hair.
and hugo reminds me of louis theroux.
ian stirling is fabulous.

unique1986 · 20/07/2021 20:17

Iain Stirling talks more than the whole cast put together..

Iain is the main reason why i watch the show

@VenusClapTrap

Hello. De-lurking to ask what is Casa Amour? I’ve not watched LI island before (well actually I did watch that very first series, when it was Celebrity Love Island with Jane Middlemiss and Abby Titmus on it, but that was a thousand years ago). I’m really only watching because I know Lucinda’s mum (who is lovely btw)!

I think there’s a lot of editing going on, and a lot of narrative creation.

You should go watch the old series on ITV Hub - series 2 and 3 in particular! Soooooo much better than this and the last few, it's been getting progressively crapper although of course I still love it Grin

No way will Hugo be in the bottom, he’s very popular

Is he? Who is he popular with?

Yes this, gives the producers more of a manipulative angle if the person they want out isn't actually bottom of the poll. I wasn't going to stay up to watch tonight but I'll try to keep my eyelids open...
ILoveYou3000 · 20/07/2021 21:01

Sorry not sure if it's been said, tonight I suspect bottom 3 of each sex then the remaining boys choose which girl to dump, and girls choose which boy goes.

My predictions:

Danny
Jake
Toby

Danny will be sent packing

Lucinda
Chloe
AJ

They'll send Lucinda home.

Tootshoots · 20/07/2021 21:01

Of course they will leave us on a cliffhanger tonight Hmm
