Just adding a last message to say au revoir to my fellow Love Island addicts! As so many have said, following the Mumsnet threads has been way more entertaining than the programme itself.

My 19 year old was out at a LI final party last night - neither he or anyone he knows wanted to Luca & Gemma to win so goodness only knows where their votes were coming from. It all seems a bit odd.

Once again this show reminds me that you can get the wrong impression about people sometimes. At the start I really liked Dami (and to be fair that was because he stood out as more intelligent, which he still is) and disliked Davide for his vanity. But my opinion of the two of them completely changed.

But I did say Luca was a wrong 'un right from my very first post <<proud>>.

Contestants on Love Island 2023 - just remember if you're in the OG you have a really really really good chance of being in the final! Unless the voting rules are changed.

So long folks XX

Thank you all so much , not really commented as much as I usually do in any reality show but with a crap few months and a name change I'm back with my crimson tooth cleaner Wink but have I missed what's happened to @Sheldon ?

Sheldon is fine and dandy. She just doesn't come on MN much since the format change. I'll pass on your regards.

Quotes from Josh and Billy. We all know how controlled and over produced it is. But thus puts it on another level how they obv have long breaks between filming. Which is crazy for the type of show it is. And momentum. Prob why it always goes round in circles.

Josh went on to say there was 'a lot of rules' about how and when Islanders could conduct conversations between one another.

He claimed he was not allowed to talk to the girls in the villa for three days, which stopped him from processing certain emotional situations.

Josh said: 'I was in welfare for 20 to 40 minutes every day just because it was the only place I could actually get stuff off my chest.'

Billy added: 'If you feel a certain way that day, you can't go and chat to them. That mental health side of things was a bit messed up.

'If you're feeling something and you want to go and chat to to the girl about it, or whoever you're with about it. Say I am really stressed out and I want to chat to Josh about the Danica situation or Tasha situation, you're not allowed.

'You can't talk about any villa life. You've got to talk about the outside world for a whole day and then the next day, you won't talk to the girls and the boys again.

It's like for two days, I've got built up emotions that I can't talk about.'

He added: 'Yeah, okay, you can go into production, but talking to production and in the Beach Hut is different to talking to someone who's involved...

'It would just be nice to talk to the Islanders about stuff. But they go, "No, save it for the cameras."'

Idiot producers imo.
Anyway guess you have to laugh about it in the threads.

Thank you so much everyone for keeping me company whilst I was watch love island this year. This thread was much more entertaining and insightful than the actual show. At times I was was watching the show for the thread not the other way round xx

helencarrot · 02/08/2022 12:00

Also thanks @TitsInAbsentia and everyone

It was my first LI and this thread kept me going to the end! Will see you all back if there's a winter series?

outshinethemorningsun · 02/08/2022 12:24

Do they release what percentage of the vote each couple got? Would be interesting to see!

I'm pretty sure they have in previous years

Prinnny · 02/08/2022 12:45

Hey, it’s not over yet we’ve got the reunion show on Sunday! I was so surprised Tasha and Andrew finished 4th but overjoyed fish face didn’t win!

Pinkdelight3 · 02/08/2022 12:56

Not over for us but maybe for Gluca? This is interesting... twitter.com/laurenm345/status/1554408089750835201?s=11&t=mRr51AeYmXty8Ad-pfZoXA

I noticed that! She's the only one without a couples photo.

Pinkdelight3 · 02/08/2022 13:14

Says it all!

WeneedtotalkaboutBrunobaby · 02/08/2022 13:33

Oh there wasn’t even a ‘we’ or thanks for voting for ‘us’.

It’s all ‘I’ - interesting….. and expected.

A580Hojas · 02/08/2022 13:45

Love that they talk about how classy Gemma is next to a photo of her with her fake boobs bursting out of her bra and evening dress. Yep, pure class.

outshinethemorningsun · 02/08/2022 13:47

Anyone want to guess the order they will split up 🤣

Gemma and Luca- within weeks
Dami and Indiyah- 3 months
Davide and Ekin Su- 6 months
Tasha and Andrew- 1 year ish

Friendship101 · 02/08/2022 13:55

Gemma and Luca within the week but won’t be announced until after the reunion show. Dami and Indiyah within a month, he’ll mess about on a press tour. Davide and Ekin Su when the couples pr work dries up or they’re getting enough work as singles. Tasha and Andrew for the long haul.

That's a bit harsh. They aren't "bursting" out. Although yes, they are very obvious in that dress.
Also, they aren't fake are they?

My DD thinks its about a week after the final that they release the percentages.

There's only 5 pages left on this thread. If there's more excitement in the media after they leave the villa, or at the reunion show, then can we have a new thread to continue talking?

AbsoluteShambles · 02/08/2022 17:20

Percentages are apparently in (HuffPost):

Ekin-Su and Davide won 63.7% of the public vote during voting across Sunday and Monday.

Runners-up Gemma Owen and Luca Bish secured 14.5%, while third placed Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope claimed 11.8%.

Meanwhile, Tasha Ghouri and Andrew Le Page were fourth with 10.1%.

I love this! And I love how Luca is being erased from Gemma's world. This is what I needed after weeks of boredom and frustration!

MuddlerInLaw · 02/08/2022 17:54

Those percentages are good to know.

(Pleased my vote for Indiyah & Dami helped them not to be last.)

noirchatsdeux · 02/08/2022 19:06

Luca so obviously thought that he'd benefit from the 'Dani Dyer' effect - that as long as he remained in a couple with Gemma, the public would vote for her.

That might have worked but for 2 reasons: 1. Gemma went around with a face like a slapped arse most of the time, and I don't think the public were impressed with the constant bitchy remarks she aimed at the other girls, particularly Ekin Su and 2. He's a cunt.

Seeing that picture of him looking so confused when the winners were announced has cheered me up all day.
