I really don’t want Gemma and Luca to win! That would be so boring and predictable. If dami brings someone back then I hope India finds someone better and wins.

7k for full set of veneers is actually ‘cheap’ for that sort of work is it not?

Andrew and Coco is just bizarre

likeaprayingmantis · 05/07/2022 02:07

Im gutted Antigoni got dumped, she was the more interesting one by miles

LostaraYil · 05/07/2022 06:05

I thought it was ridiculous how Andrew went for Coco right after Davide said he thinks she's playing a game. Andrew's self-confidence must be really low, he's just going for whoever is most available.

Yes was strange how he moved so quick after he knew she had kissed Davide. Think he wanted to 'claim' her before his option was taken away.

I agree re alcohol @Twonewcats - Mollie especially seemed drunk to me.

I think Dami was right - he said Luca would do anything to win & Jacques agreed with him. They all agreed that Luca was fake, although think he meant 2-faced so there's obviously a lot we're not seeing. I also think Dami gets the measure of people well and loved that he also passed comment on how Luca grabbed hold of Gemma so tightly and wouldn't let go as that's exactly what he has done!

I actually think Davide is hilarious with his kisses - he gives them to girls as a reward but he doesn't mean it. He's not interested and I think he'll pick to stay with ES.

Chyna seemed totally disinterested in Jay - he seemed like he was trying to hard and she wasn't bothered at all.

Hope Danika finds love!

All of this!!

Mollies hair extensions are so shit, the stylist needs an asbo.

Aw I felt sorry for Luca but I think there’s of a backstory what we’ve not seen, although Dami worded it shit the other boys did seem to agree with him. Luca kept looking to Jacques but even he was saying he saw what Dami ment. You can tell Luca is a massive overthinker tho and this will be massively getting in his head.

I thought it was strange that Jacques avoided looking at Luca or backing him up in this situation. Luca would have done it for him and seemed to back down once he realised not even his best friend was defending him.

NCTDN · 05/07/2022 06:55

"Luca is desperate to rub shoulders with slebs AKA MO etc.."

He doesn't know who Gemmas dad is does he?

I missed a bit last night. Who in the villa slept alone?

anybloodyname · 05/07/2022 06:59

Luca slept outside alone and yes they have now all discussed Gemma's dad

Luca is taking this all far too seriously when it is true that Gemma is not as keen as him.

Prinnny · 05/07/2022 07:36

Davide doesn’t care about any of them, he kissed coco cos she was coming across the most game, but when she went with Andrew he moved to next keen one Molly.

He likes ES but his male pride won’t let her embarrass him again so he’ll take someone back regardless, I don’t think she will so then they’ll fight over it and make up and win! Let’s be real, she’s the best looking girl in both villas by a country mile!

Pinkdelight3 · 05/07/2022 07:37

Hmm, there's a lot of disdain for coco just cos we don’t find her hot or her nose is weird or whatever, but she’s a petit brunette who’s great at flirting and confident, she's doing what she's on there to do - which ain't easy at this stage - so I say good luck to them. Reminds me of how many didn’t like Chloe last year, but warmed to her. I think Andrew is doing the right thing. We all wanted him to get past Tash and do LI properly and he is. Now to say he’s being a snake to Tash is a bit rich. Everyone’s told him he’s been a mug. What’s he meant to do? Keep being one and get voted off without having any fun?

Re Davide and Mollie - I see all the work she’s had done, but E-S isn't so different with a ton of face and body work. Neither are exactly natural looking so it must be a type he likes. At this point there’s no strong ties so why not?

Chyna is the natural beauty and it’s nice that Jay’s gone for her. Not sure how bright she is but she's smart enough to snare the single guy so good on her.

Most of all, I love that some stuff is finally happening! I don’t even mind Dami’s transgressions as at least he’s doing something and isn’t being an insecure wreck about it. He’s good to watch and honestly we can’t just watch people saying “I’m in a good place with my partner right now” for weeks on end. Better to do some stuff and evolve through the consequences - we love the journey, don't we? It’s not like any of them really found love from the off. If Luca/Gemma and Jacques/Paige are the strongest couples then frankly they're all better off putting it about and seeing if anything more genuinely reciprocated sparks!

marmiteadict · 05/07/2022 07:57

@anybloodyname I'm with you about moving away from the formulaic'Dubai type'

This suggestion on Twitter made me laugh -

'I propose a show called GOTH ISLAND where sad beautiful types with unwashed but nonetheless gorge tangled hair, float around a draughty vicarage in huge black overcoats and mucho eyeliner, reading Voltaire and Emily Dickenson and falling VIOLENTLY IN LOVE with each other
PLEASE '

🤣

LimesandClementines · 05/07/2022 08:06

I liked how a couple of episodes ago Gemma said she wouldn't like to make it official in the villa because she's close with her family so needs whoever to meet her family first, I took that to mean she needs to make sure a lad isn't just with her to meet her dad! So if that is Luca's end game they might not work on the outside

4isthegame · 05/07/2022 08:30

People keep talking about the boys getting caught out on the postcard but is it not usually the main villa who get the postcard from casa amor? So the boys would see what the girls are doing?

190190tnt · 05/07/2022 08:54

I think LI is divided into 2 camps, the ones who want real love - thinking...Andrew,Paige, Indiyah, maybe Gemma and the ones who don't really care that much as long as they get fame and money after... thinking...er all the rest??

Twonewcats · 05/07/2022 09:06

I can barely even remember what Ekin did to Davide - did she go off with Jay?

Pinkdelight3 · 05/07/2022 09:09

She snuck off to the balcony to snog Jay behind him Davide's back. It was more the humiliation/disrespect than the betrayal. They hadn't seemed to be into each other so I get why E-S was shopping around, but she was underhand about it. Hence not being trustworthy for him.

Rollergirl11 · 05/07/2022 09:34

I don’t think Davide even particularly cared about the kiss. It was the fact that she bare faced lied about it to him and everyone else after when they asked her where she’d been.
I actually don’t think ES is trustworthy. She has no qualms about doing whatever she wants that benefits her. Remember she was also shit-stirring between Gemma and Luca. Just because she hasn’t done anything for a week or so doesn’t mean she’s a reformed character! 😂

Pinkdelight3 · 05/07/2022 09:39

Oh absolutely, wouldn't trust her for a moment, she's acting her socks off for our entertainment. Davide knows the score I reckon. He's made no commitments.

Petronus · 05/07/2022 10:15

I don’t know. All the boys were really down on Ekin-su for that thing with Jay, but now they’re ‘exploring connections’ it’s totally fine. Having listened to Davide banging on about trust and how much work Ekin-su has to put in, I think it’s more about ego. Total misogynistic double standards. At this point I want Indiyah and Ekin-su to couple up and take the cash.

Ideletedthepicturesofekin · 05/07/2022 10:39

Isn't love island just about entertainment for the viewer? I don't really think anyone goes on the show to find love, they all want to become famous and form a carer. Out of all the series who is actually still together and made a life together out of the villa? it is ultimately a long winded game show and the best player should win.

Picoloangel · 05/07/2022 11:18

I don’t think the issue with ES was kissing Jay, it was the absolute bare faced lying and apparent lack of any shame in doing so.

I quite like her in a way - she’s grown on me - but do I think she’s trustworthy? Definitely not. She’s playing up for the cameras. She’ll stay true to Davide for the viewers not her affections. She knows that those that who do best outside in the long term and those who stay in for the longest.

I don’t mind Luca but he is definitely a stirrer! i don’t I k he likes Gemma but Dami was right to point out that he’s quite controlling.

IMO no one goes in to LI for love - that may be a happy incidental benefit - but they are all influencer types who are in it for the blue tick and lucrative endorsements.

I don’t like to comment on appearance but Molly’s teeth are the worst advert for that dentist. She looks like she’s had a fight with a box of Chiclets.

TitsInAbsentia · 05/07/2022 11:19

Too much saliva in that episode for me 😷

Feel like Indiya has just found the ring at the worse moment as she'll probably now hold on for Dami.

The boys clearly hate Tasha, so apparent with how much they are cheerleading Andrew on. But Coco is playing a blinder, they started the doubt in his mind and then made him an easy target.

I actually really want Paige to take someone back to the villa, I can't see Jacques going back alone, I just don't know.

Love Island is one of the most successful shows for long-term couples! There's quite a few who are still together after many years. A couple of weddings and a few babies
