LOVE ISLAND 5; THE FINAL

[Turmerictolly]

Couldn't think of a witty title. Bit gutted re; Grace and Reuben.

I thought they could only go in the hideaway with someone they weren’t in a couple with. At the time Joey went in with Grace he was coupled up with Samantha.

They have so little to say
I'd get up and leave if I was on one of the dates we've seen so far 😂

@CellophaneFlower I’m exactly the same with the dates and generally don’t watch the final either.
I always hope we’ll get a family member slagging off someone’s coupled up partner but in a way this year we did! I did not see that coming.

A lot of people think that Joey and Grace were having sex in the main bedroom

This is going to be an unpopular opinion, but watching Joey’s apology on First Look - he said sorry and Mimii just kept bashing him, so he got defensive. He has behaved like a twat, but at that point he was trying and she still wouldn’t let it drop from her side. I didn’t think him saying ‘Secret Mission’ in the rap was that bad, he was trying to make light of the situation and it bombed. He’s a silly bugger and I’m not a fan but I do think they’re getting themselves into a bit of a tizzy about it. The others have been able to laugh about their situations and I think Josh tried to lighten it with misplaced humour and honestly, I think Mimii should have accepted his apology.

Thats just my take, I’m sure others will disagree with me - looking at the comments on IG I think most will disagree with me! But there we are.

What happened with Grace and Ruben? I haven’t caught up yet.

@OldVase I haven’t watch the first look/apology but generally I don’t think it’s up to anyone else to tell the person harmed by an action, whether they should just forgive the person who offended /harmed them. Especially if the “victim” has reason to believe the apology is not genuine.

Particularly when, as in this instance, it’s not just a one off but a repeated pattern of bad behaviour and mistreatment.

The same way Joey has dragged this out for days and wasn’t ready to drop it when he was first asked to, maybe Mimi isn’t ready to drop it now.

You don’t get to wind someone up repeatedly and then when YOU feel like saying sorry at a time that’s convenient to you, demand they accept it right there and then.

A true apology will generally not be accompanied by defensiveness.

When I was younger I had a fall out with a friend, I later apologised to the former friend and I never got a reply. I assume that meant it wasn’t accepted, but I accepted that gracefully. I never turned on the person as I knew it was entirely up to them if they choose to forgive me or not.

Could it be more that he's apologising as he knows he's unpopular now? I mean obviously he'll assume Jessy is to blame in the first instance but perhaps he thinks he'd better safeguard, just in case the mimii shenanigans have put people off. He won't realise at all, of course, that was just the icing on top of a very large cake.

Yeah possibly. I thought they were really close though, and whilst I don’t think he has treated her very well, it would be a shame if he has only apologised to make himself look better rather than actually wanting to make his friend better.

How come they didn't do the babies this year?

Thanks @Rainbow163

i don't remember that ever being explained

I'm sure they skipped this another year too. Think they've probably read the feedback 😂 I did like 'babies' the time when they were racing the buggies (men obvs 🙄 ) and someone's buggy overturned and the baby flew out 😂 Hated when you got a girl who always made a big deal about hating all babies, but liked seeing some of the unlikely laddish boys going a bit gooey eyed over a lump of plastic 😂

I do wonder about Nicole. So desperate and intense,its awkward to watch. Worries about what everyone thinks of her and Cairon and is so fixated on the winning prize.
In the diary room place she is excruciating to watch.

Nicole has issues.

Crying hysterical when her mum came in.

Jumping on her brother with her legs wrapped around him.

Going off on Ciaran.

She shouldn't have been allowed in.

Joey is a reality tv professional and he's made a lot of money from it all.
I think he's either acting up because he knows he'll get screen time or the producers have told him to be like that.

Joey and Jessy are my winners!!

I really didn’t like what Jessie wore to the hideaway looked like a tacky Anne summers outfit . She looked really awkward in it too . A lovely little silk slip would have looked far better imho.

Joey has been told by the producers to apologise. He doesn’t mean it imho
Mimi was willing to forgive Sean, so there must be something in the way Joey is behaving that is stopping her from doing the same.
I am not Mimi’s biggest fan but both Joey and Sean’s behaviour towards have been awful

Can’t quite bring myself to link to the article but has anyone else seen this? Maybe that’s why Sean suddenly decided to apologise and what has prompted tonight’s apology from Joey.

Completely agree.

Just caught up and found the new thread!
I have really gone off Matilda and Jessy now, I don’t understand how they can stand Sean and Joey. I wish Cieran and Ayo could win tbh. And I pray that Josh does not rise to the bait for his sake, they’re bullying him at this point

I've gone off Matilda after last night.. she was getting really arsy about being voted for some of the top 3, where others just took it on the chin.

Joey and Sean would never have the balls to cross Josh in real life. Although let's not forget, joey could probably beat him .. in a race 😂

lol! Although Joey has always been a bit of a hot head. He was always quite angry on towie
