I think Tasha is probably even better looking in RL and Luca hasn’t got over her picking Andrew over him. Andrew is spineless unfortunately otherwise he’d have stood up to L a long time ago. It’s this weakness in A that has made T waiver in whether he’s a good long term choice. All the boys showed an interest in T initially.

L is into G because of what she’s got outside LI. He’s as fake as they come. Possessive sh*t stirrer who’s making sure he hangs onto G to the very end. I think G is OK but this sort of character is difficult for any 19yr old to handle easily. Personally I think she’s too young for the show and it’s this sort of emotional mess that can be seriously upsetting and hard to navigate when you’re that young.

I agree with everything you’ve written.

Petitecoccinelle · 20/07/2022 15:08

I’ve just caught up from last night. I felt like the whole Danica giving Billy a piece of her mind scene was a TOWIE-esque, carefully stage managed bit to make sure the show is seen to depict strong women putting good for nothing men in their place (vs allowing chauvinistic mysoginists to get away with it), without having Gemma or Indiyah do it because that would go against their storylines of how in love they are before the final.

As much as I don’t like Billy at all or how he’s acted I think it made Danica look a bit nuts and won’t have done her any favours at all!

CarpyDiem · 20/07/2022 15:08

I wonder if L still fancies T?

marmiteadict · 20/07/2022 15:10

First look is up.

However amazing the new bombshells are, I can't see them making any waves apart from a bit of flirting on the obligatory dates.

It is just too close to the final and they are all fairly sure of their popularity at this point.
Dami and Indyah may have some doubts after the recent vote but that is all.

The two singles will probably couple up but their time will be short lived as we wind down to the final 4

Deodrant · 20/07/2022 15:11

I'm just wondering what it is that Gemma loves about Luca? I haven't seen anything to give me a clue?

WhenDovesFly · 20/07/2022 15:15

If the girls are choosing which boy gets dumped then I don't see why they won't choose Billy. Paige and Indiyah will want Dami to stay and will influence the others (not that anyone is really enamoured by Billy imo).

Likewise, if the boys are choosing the girl to go, I reckon they'll pick Danica. In the First Look they were making a comment about her already having lots of chances.

I really, really want one of the new boys to flirt with Gemma and set Luca off again. For some reason G doesn't seem to have opened her eyes yet to what he's like, and the message needs to be reinforced. Either that or she's very well aware and is just playing the game until the end to avoid friction.

PLEASE PRODUCERS - BRING ON THE TWITTER GAME!!

TitsInAbsentia · 20/07/2022 15:41

I'd like it if G and the footballer hit it off, I think someone in to football/fitness would slot more logically in to her world...I mean if her swimwear range extends to men would you want ole dodgy tatts modelling for you (I am qualified, I have a dodgy tatt!) or a washboard ab'd footballer?

I'd also like one of the new girls to be for deji, but at this stage I'd be wondering if they're just doing that "I like Deji" because he's single...

I don't think she does. I think she is just saying it.

marmiteadict · 20/07/2022 16:27

The footballer will surely bd a no no from Micheal Owen. Quit footballing be on Love Island 😂

doings · 20/07/2022 16:36

Yes! Bring on the mums! Bring on Twittergate! And let’s watch Luca’s boat get rocked so he can fall in and sleep amongst his fishes 😂😂

BiscoffSundae · 20/07/2022 16:40

Well if the guys are picking they will get rid of danica. Not liking the look of the newbies and I think it’s a bit late in the game now to bother

Aquarius1234 · 20/07/2022 16:43

Every conversation on First Look is fake and set up cringe. Oh things are going a bit too smoothly. Too good to be true. Dun dun dun.... newbies.
And the discussion before dumping no thanks.

Puffalicious · 20/07/2022 17:02

Thanks for posting the pics of the bombshells, Tits. Why are they so generic?! Where is the blonde, surfer (for me, mainly😁); the good looking geek (my DS1 is a Maths genuis and traditionally handsome, but too young at barely 18. There's time, though, MNers😅); the comedian who laughs a girl's clothes off (I was always partial to one of those); the musician who gets a guitar out; the red-head with attitude; the Asian princess; the sporty girl; the fashion student; the funky art-school student; the super clever young people that are everywhere? I could go on...

I’m surprised Danica was in the bottom 2, I thought she’d become gradually popular with people rooting for her

ZiggyGigi · 20/07/2022 17:45

Nathalia is gorgeous and I think will get a bit of attention from Davide if she’s got a bit of banter too

Deodrant · 20/07/2022 17:46

Who do you think Lacey will go for? Do you think any of them will be successful?

Louise0701 · 20/07/2022 17:52

Thanks tits! I really struggled to call the bottom 2 for the girls. Struggled to find 2 decent ones to not be in the bottom 2 out of the boys! What a crap bunch they are. Billy deserved the rollicking.
i reckon it’ll be Billy & Danica going. They will say Danica has have enough chances. Bless her.

ZiggyGigi · 20/07/2022 17:45

Can I ask why you think the banter is relevant there?

To me, Davide has absolutely no banter at all so I can’t imagine it being important in the people he dates.

All the ones that usually vote for her voted for Tasha instead

I'm not even convinced the results reflect what we voted for ... especially as Luca was not there ..

Luca's got 700K Insta followers, the second most of the guys, after Adam. He's popular with the Fiat500 crew I understand.

I agree, most footballers are bubbleheads. Far worse than Luca. Look at what some of them get up to. Scandalous.
I quite like Gemma she doesn't give much away and seems very solid mentally. Very deadpan.

'It’s this weakness in A that has made T waiver in whether he’s a good long-term choice. All the boys showed an interest in T initially'.
Ah, so it's Andrews's fault then. That's some badass verbal trigonometry or is it Hypergamy (Sixpack) live on film.😂

XioXio · 20/07/2022 18:17

Fiat500 crew as in enthusiasts of that car model? Or do you mean something else?
