I think Davide talks the talk but underneath it all really likes Ekin. You can tell by the way he looks at her and speaks to her. Think it's just bravado making him talk the way he does.

Me too! I also love the meme of her lit from below!

@GlitteryGreen and from having even numbers for most of the time due to people leaving. There has been no real graft because there was always someone to couple with, even if not their first choice.

Absolutely agree. No drama at all. Dami would have left ages ago

So did Adam enter the villa to be predictable and pick the safe bet and follow the tired and tested pattern for the win?

The new girl was correct in no banter/vibe/or anything between Gem and Luca, it's completely flat.

Good job for Ekin & D so fun bits in an otherwise dull villa. The Deji guy is interesting. Danika is so desperate and interviews all 'candidates' then ticks her boxes off, say speech each time she goes for the latest entry.

Dami - no way can he win.

A & T look settled and seem a genuine couple now.

What an outfit to be wearing for that conversation. If Adam wants to be with Paige exclusively while she's in that get up then it must be love.... (or, a very shrewd financial decision)"

Adam knows what he is doing, he's been there before and going for a win. I give them until the contracts dry up and the money stops on the outside. Wales and Up North

Which couples do you think will last on the outside?

I don't believe Luca and Gemma will last 5 minutes.

Ekin and Davide is doubtful as well, as I think there will be too much temptation for him on the outside and he doesn't like her THAT much to resist.

Andrew and Tasha possibly could last longer than the others.

"XelaM · Today 18:11
The only person I think genuinely truly adores the girl they are with to the point he would treat her really well, is Andrew. All the other guys are awful boyfriend material (bar Deji of course!)"

I agree, I'm so surprised to say it though!

Ah, I forgot about Indiyah and Dami - no way will that last. He will cheat on her at the first opportunity. She might forgive him until he does it again.

"Prinnny · Today 21:32
Yep the mask definitely slipping on Paige! I don’t buy that cutesy hunny buns shit. Indiyah is salty with summer when it’s actually dami who did her wrong, hate when girls are like that!"

Totally. Indiyah needs to leave dreadful Dami. Paige and the wobbling head with pursed lips are quite annoying now.

Amazed that people think Natalia is not very pretty. I think she is easily the most beautiful contestant this year. Interesting how different peoples perception of beautiful is

I think Tasha is easily the most naturally beautiful girl in there, then Ekin Su, I'd have put Summer next, then Natalia followed by Danica and Gemma who are on a par with one another.....

I wonder what influences our perceptions of beauty most. It is interesting.

I still think Tasha and Andrew are faking.

Paige and the wobbling head with pursed lips are quite annoying now.

Of course, I forgot about them! Can't stand either of them and they will not last on the outside. He is faking it for the show (as is she)

Ugh Adam is so annoying. He’s blatantly come in with a plan and in fact it would be pretty outrageous if he won given the issues with his behaviour on the previous series. Especially if he wins with Paige who is just so bloody irritating!! I still don’t understand how she has completely got over her thing with jacques (I know he’s a twat and she’s way better off without him but it’s the fact she switched so fast).

Bored of Ekin now. Her and Davide are mildly amusing but she’s just become a bit of a cliche. And if Davide says ‘naturally’ (‘nato-relly) one more time …

Paige Adam faking. But she is convincing at timed lol

Natalia is real a natural beauty. Tasha is more natural than the others, but she has the ordinary "girl next door" look. The others need a ton of make-up, fake tan, fillers etc etc - makes them look much older than they are. To be fair, Adam looks as much 26 as I look like Marilyn Monroe (I don't 😞)

I think Ekin-Su is stunning! But not necessarily natural, which doesn't matter, but it's apparent that she's had work done. Again, I don't think that matters, but maybe that's what posters mean by 'natural'. Tasha is stunning. Honestly, I think every girl in there is beautiful. But some look a little more enhanced than others 🤷🏻‍♀️

Same here. I found her irritating, and false, anyway, but now she's unwatchable!

Well that was a snoozefest.

I want Ekin and Davide to win. Refuse to split the money. Huge liar drama. Make up. Then decide to split the money anyway. Fall out again.

Then have some sort of TV show where they travel round places abroad with all their ridiculousness.

I'm sure it would be heavily scripted but I don't care.

I loved Siannise! Agree one of the best islanders ever.

I don’t dislike Ekin as such but she irritates me. I hate her fake laugh and the fact that she needs constant male validation.

Despite Paige having some v irritating physical tics like the head wobbling and lip pursing I actually like her and genuinely think she’s insecure on the inside. Adam unfortunately for her is playing a game.

Whilst I think Natalia is stunning I weirdly also get why others see her as “not all that” It’s a weirdly understated beauty that’s breathtaking at the same time. All that said, she’s awful as a person. She’s enjoying winding up Ekin and Paige. She’s one of those people who think someone else’s partner is a challenge.

There have been some horrendous clothes this years - age 5 bikini tops, kids hanky bikini bottoms and far FAR too much male satin. The prize though goes to Ekin’s hideous orange trousers with laces on the thigh. They should be buried in a sealed chamber never to see the light of day again.

I'm half an episode behind. I think Natalia is beautiful but it's a different type of beauty to most love islanders: natural, interesting and understated rather like Tasha instead of enhanced like Ekin Su where proportions have been amended and it hits you in the face straight away. All 3 are lovely.

I think Deji was trying to make the best of Lacey's weird cheating oversharing ('it was fun though!') rather than genuinely finding that exciting. What an odd thing to open with.

I wonder if she's found it's best to get that admission over with straight away rather than risk being asked 'have you ever cheated?' later and men lose interest (I would if it had been a man having a full mutual affair), or if she genuinely things it a normal/ slightly risque thing to share? We've all made mistakes but I can't say that made her come across well to me.

Why is Gemma on LI?
it cant be the cash prize.
it can’t be for the exposure because she can afford her own PR to get column inches in the DailyFail.
The deadpan delivery of ‘Tell him to fuk off cos you’re fuking gorgeous” as her answer to all the girls problems won’t get her a tv presenter job anytime soon.
Keeping off screen with no drama won’t get any acting work.
So she’s on here to find love with a fishmonger of dubious character? Really?

@doings promoting her swimwear line apparently.

Definitely not doing it for the prize money. Her necklace is customised, vintage Tiffany. A similar one recently sold for £43k so she is literally wearing the prize money around her neck 😂

Gave up on last night’s episode during yet another toe-splayingly dreadful “game” that was loaded with bad-feelings, goading, simmering resentment and bile-inducing oral activities (what is with the licking of legs and feet??) and yet simultaneously spectacularly dull.
Quite a feat to manufacture TV that is both hateful and catatonia-inducing. Slow hand clap for the producers there.

Instead I somehow found myself sorting out my band aids and savlon tin which was about 1000% more interesting and satisfying.

Jacques claims that he's not watching have me concerned that he may still be planing the airport run for Paige.

Not that Adam would be bothered, he'd probably put him on porter duty.
