Love Island Thread 5 - These tatas are NOT for that kind of thing!

[TitsInAbsentia]

By 24 she wears 100k jewellery..it's a little bit too much. Just imo. I'm sure no one else agrees.

I like Luca and Gemma but I wish she'd called him out on his possessiveness

Tasha was mute tonight. Great edit there.

Where are Challenges that show the Islanders having fun? Even if a bit of tension happens after. The pie one is fun. All this season seems to be is pulling for a chat and young men behaving really, really badly towards young women.
I’m not loving any of it, well Ekin-Su is awesome but even she is getting tired of having to continually prove herself to Davide. He is a pretty man but he is also a petty man.
I voted for Danica, hope she finds love 💕 or a fantastic job as a dancer 💃

Thank you.

Sorry, I've been out tonight, so just catching up.

Musings this is not the time or place to have such a discussion. Suffuce to say I am not horrified and do not suffer from bias, or lack of understanding or research. I'm very well informed, thank you. I'm very aware of the genetic aspects of MH disorders, thanks. I lost my best friend 2 years ago to poor MH, which I strongly believe was genetic. I've dealt with her and have had many conversations with many, many doctors and therapists.

I also know that ADHD is mental disorder in the DSM- it IS a disorder as it affects behaviour: the behaviour is disordered, but it is not poor mental health. The crucial fact here is that ADHD cannot be caused by ACEs, MH issues can- not always but can. I think it's worth making this distinction clear. My DC have not had ACEs, they are neuro-atypical. As such they have a higher chance of poor MH, but that's fine, I'm prepared for that.

I repeat, i have no bias: MH issues should be given as much treatment and resources as physical issues.

I'm over and out on this now. I hope Jacques get the understanding he needs.

The necklace is probably an old one of her mums. My 19 year old has a lot of my older jewellery.

It’s hardly a surprise that daughter of a millionaire has nice things.

I can't believe there has been another public vote without there being a recoupling.
They've not been in the casa couples for ages.
But again we're back to even numbers so no one has to fight for their place.
It's so frustrating.

I thought the necklace could be her 18th birthday present from her parents. She perhaps wouldn't wear it out with her mates, or on a girls holiday, but in the villa it's "safe" so she can wear it and enjoy it, and if it will remind her of home. It is gorgeous.
Maybe I'm just sentimental though 🤗
I also thought that the reason she told Luca that if her mum needs to like him gives her an "out" so she isn't pushed into making a commitment she doesn't want. He was very demanding on that date, insisting she said what he wants to hear almost. There are moments when she laughs and lights up like a happy young girl having fun, but they seem few and far between, and she looks almost blank or "not there" quite often. Like in the bed, he was right on top, kissing her, and she seemed to be quite passive, sort of accepting the kisses, not objecting at all, but not really reciprocating iykwim.

I love her necklace. Is it vintage Tiffany's?

Is Gemma really interested in Luca?! She seems like such a cold-hearted thing. Not much emotion and very closed off. I just can’t warm to her.

Yeah vintage Tiffany I read it’s worth around 20K, I love it 😍

Also I think the Davide and Paige thing is fake news, I asked my mate where she got the screenshots from and I can confirm it is not a reputable site 😂

I thought Gemma and Lucas date just looked awkward and forced. Gemma sat there the entire time leaning back from the table with her arms crossed over her body she didn't look comfortable at all. Not really engaging that much with Luca. I really don't think she's that into him. I think she's humouring him. I don't think there's anyone else in there for her (possibly Billy?) but I don't think she'll go there now, and I only think she chats to him as they have a mutual friend on the outside.
Davide was too old for her, she doesn't really speak to Andrew, Dami is too much of a friend. And I've not seen her have many conversations with the other boys.
IMO She's just cruising through LI

I'm actually warming to Adam

I can't work out if Gemma doesn't like Luca or if she has a a wall up and is standoffish anyway. And anything short of a massive bulldozer isn't going to knock it down

And then from Luca perspective when he has been told he is the more keen one, what is it about her that makes him so set and not wanting to explore other connections. He's fake and if it wasn't for her celebrity connections I really don't think they would have lasted this long.

I know there's not much competition but I'm really surprised to see people voting for Dami as their favourite boy!

Would love to see something taking off between Danica and Billy, and Andrew and Tasha leaving.

It's been so many days since Casa Amor I'm starting to think we're not going to see any fall-out from it like movie night last year. Perhaps they've decided it's too damaging? Remember how that one comment from Jake really messed with Liberty's head?

There will soon be lots of cheap rip offs of the "Gemma necklace". She obviously loves it and no surprise that she'll have expensive stuff.

So does that mean that Gemma's mum approved of Jacques? She shouldn't have an issue with Luca then!

I voted for Danica and Deji last night. I think Deji hasn’t really had a fair shot, Indiyah clearly only wanted him as a backup and the first sign of her and Dami being back on she dropped him like a sack of hot shit.

I agree, she doesn't need the money she just wants to further her brand. I think she likes him enough to spend her summer with him and make sure she stays in the villa.

Gemma likes Luca but not for anything serious or long-term. She can have her pick of boys and she’s only 19 after all. As PP said she came on LI for exposure and to further her brand first and foremost. She’s sticking with Luca as the most sensible option with a higher chance of success.

Luca is after fame and exposure, looking at the wannabe influencer circles he was already in and the fact he has z-list ex-girlfriends. He obviously likes and is attracted to Gemma but her connections are clearly a massive part of why he went for her.

i will be extremely surprised if they last on the outside

I get what's in it for Luca, I just don't get what's in it for Gemma? Why is she accepting being stick with him for the duration and not actually have a bit of fun with the other boys like Billy 🤷‍♀️

being stuck*

Has luca has other famous girlfriends?
