I'm baffled why the new girl isn't at all interested in Scott? What am I not seeing 🤷🏼‍♀️ Amber .. leave well alone from the new guy, he's a proper chap and should be swerved!!

Abi needs to calm down - it’s giving bunny boiler.

The behaviour is concerning

bookwormcrazy · 13/07/2023 21:59

Sooo turned off by Abi now! It's a shame Ella seems so set on Ty, I think Mitch deserves better than Abi.

TuesdayWonder · 13/07/2023 22:00

Cannot understand Abi at all!

CherryCokeFanatic · 13/07/2023 22:01

Tomorrows preview. Does frowny Ella not realising reacting in that way makes it a literal battle of the Ellas 😂 self fulfilling prophecy from the moment it was said

Whenlifegivesyoulemonsmakelemonade · 13/07/2023 22:02

I reckon the new Ella is actually interested in Ty, but she's been given a brief to stir it up with Mitch and Abi. Maybe so that Abi pivots to Scott. Who knows...

WesterChick · 13/07/2023 22:03

Mitch is very unsexy, that's why despite his obvious good looks he has failed to bag himself a girl. Wouldn't be surprised if he comes out as gay in 10 years.

WesterChick · 13/07/2023 22:03

Or he's a porn addict / incel type

WesterChick · 13/07/2023 22:04

New Ella is totally giving OnlyFans vibes

pricklythistles · 13/07/2023 22:08

Not liking new Ella. I can see she's been brought in to mix it up, but she's scary/predatory already.

But looking forward to Ella vs Ella2 🥊

HelpMebeok · 13/07/2023 22:10

Old Ella's personality is so unattractive. I don't get what Ty sees in her. She's so moany

Sunsetandsunrise · 13/07/2023 22:15

new Ella doesn’t stand a chance, and she comes across like a cartoon villain which is what a bombshell should do I guess . But I can’t see Ty taking her seriously if even Kady who is more of a serious contender didn’t turn his head. And tbh Ty isn’t that dumb to throw his chance at the final away.

Just saw the preview I’m so glad OG Ella is not tolerating her BS talking about battle of the Ella’s 🤡

YoSof · 13/07/2023 22:16

“I will not go against any girl over a man”.

Ella OG just went right up in my estimations 👏

Jigslaw · 13/07/2023 22:23

Montel was the most attractive to me but I wouldn't say he was a decent guy or whatever PP said in terms of love island after lying about what he did during casa! I suspect the vast vast majority voted because of Leah anyway.

I do wonder whether Scott just isn't a love island guy, as in Zac said I can't imagine him game when he was working out with Abi- would explain why people on the outside who are 'normal' people maybe like him (as well as feeling sorry for him) but in an environment like that they don't hit it off as he doesn't act like the others rather than a personality flaw? I think there's also a bit of going with the crowd making the women hesitant to alienate themselves because of the divide.

Agree about Amber being too young, it's just awkward now and no way is she going to want to couple up with a 26 year old! No idea as to what she's adding to the villa or what she's expecting to get out of it really, at least Gemma had some personality and style etc.

Old Ella I think with the right guy is probably a lot more chill and fun, as we saw in casa. I think to be with someone like Ty who is a social butterfly and natural flirt you need to be a certain type of secure and I think he will drive her wild. At least new Ella is trying to bring something to the table, it's gotten so boring lately.

It's obvious Sammy doesn't really like Jess in that way but for some reason she's happy to be pulled along, I guess there aren't tonnes of options in there for her?

Abi is coming across very intense, so has mitch been throughout I suppose so maybe a good match hah. Quite a lot of double standards from the girls this year I think.

I don't get molly and zac at all, you can tell he's not into it much it's getting painful.

Hope they do something to lighten the mood soon, a challenge maybe!

Her absolutely banging body?

AussieKoala · 09/07/2023 23:31

Thank you!

Same ones who were saying how Scott couldn't like Cat and no chemistry bla bla...and now she's the worst villain for going with someone whom she felt actually liked her.

She's not my fave islander but there is def a whiff of something funny going on.

I missed this it was days ago clearly but just wanted to comment…wth “ ancestral hate” and I couldn’t believe boohoo tweeted against Cat when as far as I know they were were silent about Faye! And I wasn’t a fan of Cat either and tbh I’m glad she’s gone (also glad Leah is gone) but still it’s all very disproportionate.

I hope she’s ok after reading all the stuff online about her but she probably is expecting it. Britain is extremely punitive, hateful and OTT when a black women does something out of line and will reserve the Be kind for the likes of Faye.

many if the people with all the vitriol against her are claiming they can’t be racist because they like Whitney but trust me, you can tell a racist more by how they act when a black person annoys or offends them than when they’re getting along. It’s the same reason football fans can be cheering a black player one minute then racially abusing an opponent black player the next.

I find many mixed race people attractive.

I find many white people attractive.

I find many "full" black people attractive.

I also find some of the above NOT so attractive (to me!)

Ouzy being fucking gorgeous has absolutely FUCK ALL to do with him being mixed race.

HTH.

Fab.

As I stated each person will have different reasons for their “preferences” or who they gravitate to physically and I’m not able to or attempting to get into the depths of everyone’s mind and mentality but the fact is many people in society are influenced by colourism which favours mixed race black heritage people over mono racial /darker skinned black people.

It’s a thing. That’s all I was saying.

LittleCrackers · 13/07/2023 22:39

Oh are we going for a new thread de-railing tonight? I'll be back in a few days then

littlehattie · 13/07/2023 22:39

I think it will be hard for Ella to turn people at this stage so I hope she goes for Scott as I really like him. Not sure what will happen for Josh as he will couple up with Amber by default but the maturity levels seem mismatched

Sunsetandsunrise · 13/07/2023 22:39

I missed a bunch of notifications hence my late replies. I won’t be replying to any others I’ve missed because looking back I see I’ve already comprehensively stated my point was just about colorism not saying every single person who favours Ouzy is definitely solely because he’s mixed race.

I’m just repeating myself at this point but I’m sure some will continue to deliberately miss the point 😂 because some people find the mention of racism or colorism more upsetting than you know… actual racism or colorism 🙄

PicturesOfDogs · 13/07/2023 22:41

Jess saying to Ella do you think he’s fit, and Ella saying he’s just your type babe, and that’s okay! 🤣

If this was aimed at me I’ve explained my late replies below.

But also it’s all to do with love island and these are related topics that come up since it is a reality show so deals with aspects of real life?

And I see others have mentioned these issues too, so it may be “derailing” to you but it’s part and parcel of love island discourse to many who have lived experience of these sorts of things.

anyway as per above I’ve said my point. Anyone who doesn’t Understand at this point isn’t worth explaining to.

Siameasy · 13/07/2023 22:43

Amber has no personality I really don’t see the point. Just far too young.
I liked Montel; the pair of them were boring tho.
I don’t think Ty will turn but he will probably flirt and piss Ella1 off.
Please Jess go for Josh he seems much nicer
Ella2 could go for Sammy. I don’t believe she fancies Mitch at all. He’s not fancisble. There’s something awkward about him

PicturesOfDogs · 13/07/2023 22:45

Also feel for Ella 1.

She can’t escape in the villa from one of Tys bakers hundred conquests.
Whats it going to be like when they’re out?
