I think the boys kept Danica in because they felt bad that none of them fancied her.

The boys for Casa Amor are just meh.

Oh yes Jake and Liberty. Coupled up straight away but you could tell she was way more into him than he was her. He obviously thought sticking together would get them to win it. Tried to follow the whole formula of becoming ‘exclusive’ then matching bracelets, boyfriend and girlfriend etc. Viewers can see through this sort of thing!

Ditto Amy and Curtis from the year before. She was smitten. The minute the public vote started to turn and suggest they were no longer that popular he had a sudden change of heart and she was devastated.

Interestingly the biggest ‘head turn drama’ from Casa last year was Millie and Liam who went on to be the winners. Others who have betrayed their partner and bought someone back have ended up quite popular (eg Josh and Kaz) so it’s not necessary for them to stay loyal to do well

Jack’s tattoo is awful one of the worst I ever seen!! Am sure he’s got a nice personality but ...,Just no ...he doesn’t need the £’s so why go in to be embarrassed 😳

To be fair .. we've not even met the boys yet

Perhaps they will surprise us 😩 with their wit maturity and deep meaningful conversations 🤨

Why are the Casa Amor boys never attractive?

@roarfeckingroarr emmmmm can I please remind you of that wonderful specimen of a man ... My Ovi

🤣🤣

Yeah maybe it’s a weird social experiment to see if wits and a winning personality will overcome looks. I can’t think why else they were chosen.

Just catching up on last night's episode - did anyone else notice Ekin-Su's armpit or did I totally imagine it? Nice surprise to see her embracing her natural body hair if I didn't imagine it!

I noticed it and thought great. Not newsworthy (hopefully).

i thought it looked like razor rash? She’s had it a while

The 5/6 year olds may as well get used to the bitchy cutthroat parents of their contemporaries going forward.

Luckily we never had ‘problem’ children or who knows if they were sometimes naughty and other parents heard about it and took it with a punch of salt, but I can imagine how devastating it is to be a parent to an excluded child.

Wrong thread 🤣

I couldn’t make it out either but I think it’s just darkened skin or irritated.

Also noticed how naturally pretty India is without those horrid fake lashes.

That method of getting the girls out to Casa was pathetic.
For once they get to go to Casa, but they dont get the fun of the secrecy, the sneakiness and we don't get to see them realise they are going?
They were clearly all told in the cars where they were going. BORING.
Plus they got to say 'goodbye' to their coupled one - you could tell they all knew this might be IT.

Also underwhelmed by the casa amor boys, on first appearances it seems like there is more to tempt the boys than the girls. I think the big story will be Davide having his head turned and Ekin be furious.

Thing is they are just not attractive and I don’t mean it in a nasty way they are ok just average looking not ugly but not head turners and that’s the whole point in them being called “bombshells” they are meant to turn heads and tempt them away which isn’t going to happen when they are very average looking (or below average like Charlie)

😂

I've just seen a couple of insta accounts of the girls - one called Cheyenne (sp) has had her photos liked by Davide...and...ANDREW! Could Tasha be in trouble!

I wish but he’s way too smitten, unbelievably so in such a short time.

I reckon Luca is going to be unbearable during Casa. Pining, sulky and panicking.

I think the miserable pining ones will be:
Paige, Luca, Andrew, Ekin

The ones who get distracted by new people but still come back alone:
Tasha, Jacques (though i do wonder if he is smart enough to fight it for popularity), Dami, Indiyah, Gemma

Head properly turned:
Davide

Danica & Jay will obviously bring back new people

Possible that Andrew could turn...but the boys know how this shit goes down if they turn #chaldish so they'll be wise to it I think especially Jaques.
Luka is going no where though I think Jack may go for Gemma sleb ting?
But ovo danica is an easy target to get in...which is sad really for her as will of them be genuine?
They've really done the girls dirty with that bunch need a couple of late 20's in there not a bunch a kids.

So to summarise there is only jay and danica that are easy targets though I think at a push Andrew could be turned.

Davide likes Ekin now he's got to know her more but she is still way too desperate for him.
She says she's playing it cool, she's a new 'chilled' person and there's no pressure..whilst also planting unsolicited kisses on him, making him pancakes, giving him massages, fake laughing at the tiniest thing, forced eye contact and forcing 'isn't our connection special' moments etc.. It's so cringe!
He tolerates it but he is not enamoured.

I think Davide and Ekin Sue will win, I also think they know exactly what they are doing. Davide will flirt for drama, but the boys are atrocious in Casa, the girls not as good as the og[s. Nothing like.

Tasha and Andrew next out. One of them, definitely.
