Just been on to catch up on what I'd missed and the thread has gone?! Anyone have any idea why?

I don’t dislike Gemma I think it’s early days everyone thought amber (Gill?) was rude/bitchy at first but she ended up winning so 🤷‍♀️

So true! I'm getting these vibes now

outshinethemorningsun · 12/06/2022 11:25

it seems whenever a ‘relative of a celeb’ is put in LI they always make it to the final so I assume the producers will work things in a way to ensure Gemma stays for ages

Yeah I agree. Although having said that Amber WAS bitchy to begin with. Anna brought out the worst in her. Do you remember when the two of them were being nasty bullying bitches to Danny one night, following him around the villa trying to get a rise and getting all up in his face? It was deeply unpleasant. Amber changed after that, became much calmer and nicer.

Also last year Chloe seemed bitchy to begin with but then people warmed to her.

Loving Paige on extra bits, she seems just so naturally lovely. I don’t understand why none of the boys seem to rate her! Her comment about Gemma’s RBF was so funny. Gemma is so serious, no fun about her at all. I though we might see her having some sort of a laugh on extra bits but no nothing whatsoever. I really like Amber too. Another naturally nice girl.

The bit where Paige, Tasha and the lads were trying to make up a rap was great. These are the bits we need to see on the nightly show not all this shite about time three etc. There’s no flow whatsoever, obviously cos they monitor every conversation. It’s so manufactured which is a shame.

Agree about Paige but don't agree about the boys not 'rating' her. I think quite a few really fancy her but don't want to rock their current boats.

Andrew saw her as 'wifey' material and took the opportunity for a kiss, and last night there was quite a bit of flirtation directed at her from both Ikenna & Dami.

My girl will be fine.

BiscoffSundae · 12/06/2022 11:46

I think they will keep her in for as long as possible and make it so she doesn’t get voted off then she will let her guard down and people will warm to her, could be totally wrong though 🤣

Mammyloveswine · 12/06/2022 11:59

Took me ages to find a thread!! Anyway I am annoyed by gemma... Ekin su is definitely just playing a part... love Paige..Tasha reminds me a bit of Emily attack..,

Really love Indiyah she is stunning! Ikenna has grown on me too.

Luca is a dick but at least has some personality.

Davide is beautiful but also a dick.

Rollergirl11 · 12/06/2022 12:00

Is anyone else struggling with the page constantly reloading and losing your response? It’s infuriating!!!

Beingadiv · 12/06/2022 13:33

Ikenna seems really sweet.

Any ideas why Liam left? Just not enjoying himself?

I find it completely unbelievable that Amber Gill won at all. She wasn’t a nice person at all. I think the only reason she won was because people felt sorry for her after Michael treated her so badly (and you couldn’t help but feel sorry for her after that).

Anon778833 · 12/06/2022 13:37

Rachel Finni says that one of the women bullied her last year and that it was never shown. I wonder who that was?

Yamyam13 · 12/06/2022 13:39

Ekin Su acrually gives me slight Rachel vibes in terms of coming in & being super full on 'i'm a woman who knows what she wants' vibes

Having not liked Gemma, and I think I still dont, I have to say in the last few days I've slightly relunctantly come around to her as I think maybe her 'bitchiness' IS her sense of humour?
Like, I think, maybe, she is has a very dry sense of humour? Esp. When talking/flirting to the guys..
For example when Luca was saying should he bring her orange juice etc and she said 'Absolutely NOT'
I thought, hang on, you're kind of funny...
Maybe I'm being optimistic.

I think Gemma does have a very dry sense of humour. It seems to me that the reason she was rude about Luca’s surname is that she likes him. She said she would have stepped forward for him.

BeggyMitchell · 12/06/2022 13:49

Still a strange way of showing attraction as an adult and not a 5 year old

marmiteadict · 12/06/2022 14:00

@MondaysChild7 completely agree that Amber winning was more a vote against Micheal's behaviour towards her than because she was a fantastic person. I can't even remember the name of the chap she won with. He was on for about a week before winning half the prize money. Micheal must have been gutted at missing out which was probably the reason she got so many votes

Anon778833 · 12/06/2022 14:01

It was Greg wasn’t it?

BiscoffSundae · 12/06/2022 14:02

I’m not sure amber won because people felt sorry for her? The same thing has happened to loads of islanders and they didn’t win because of it? Look at rosie and Adam

Yamyam13 · 12/06/2022 14:05

Ooh no I don't agree re. Amber - I really liked her and I think many others did too. I think she's one of my favourite ever past islanders.

I’d hazard a guess at Faye? She behaved dreadfully at times last year!

Yamyam13 · 12/06/2022 14:08

Sorry discussing Michael and Gemma these last posts, I guess you could say:
"Gemma can be a bit CHALDISH"

Maybe Sharon? Apparently she was in on it as well about the boys laughing at Rachel

Beingadiv · 12/06/2022 14:13

Amber seemed to have a lot of integrity and dignity rather than being the sweetest character there, plus Michael treated her like an arse, which nobody likes seeing.

Rosie didn’t find someone else afterwards. Greg was popular too.

I don’t remember what happened after tbh just that amber isn’t the only one it’s happened to amber didn’t actually find Greg either that was so fake on both sides

LuckyAmy1986 · 12/06/2022 14:40

I've just watched the catch up show. Did no one think Gemma was so rude and condescending to Liam when talking about dressage? Horrible!
