I’ve voted for Helena and Harrison.

Megan and Connor will not last.
She will run back to Tommy

I don’t think he would take her back.

letsgotothebeach · 26/06/2025 22:19

Get Ben out!…..odious boy.

Aquarius1234 · 26/06/2025 22:19

I want Yasmin and Megan to stay. Don't care about anyone else.

LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway · 26/06/2025 22:19

I dislike Ben a lot too. And as for Shakira saying he's attractive. 😆

He looks like Bruce Forsyte.

And saying Yasmin only came out of her shell because of him. What a narcissistic conceited wanker.

I haven't been a fan of Yasmin, but I detest Ben 100X more!

I’ve voted for Helena and Harrison.

Helena has grown on me and Harrison is very sweet. I like Emily too. So I am struggling!

Ben is just pissed off because he saw himself as the hottest man in that villa who all the girls would want . The girls he wants are not interested in him
His ego has been bruised

F knows why he thinks he's hot. Confused

And yeah, he is being nasty to Yasmin because he is butthurt that she's not interested in him now. 😆

Completely agree. Plus he’s thick as 2 short planks so it makes having any kind of conversation with him totally pointless!

I voted Shakira & Harrison.

Empress13 · 26/06/2025 22:42

Ben is a proper bell end ! Lord only knows how anyone could stomach that fake road man voice. In the words of the islanders he gives me the proper ick! Well done Yasmin for putting the weasel in his place

CagneyNYPD1 · 26/06/2025 22:44

Ben is a nasty piece of work. Yasmin may well be a strange cookie but his comments were below the belt.

fairydust11 · 26/06/2025 22:46

Completely agree. Ben was completely out of order with how he spoke to Yasmin. So rude.
Really hope he goes.

Picoloangel · 26/06/2025 22:47

Ben is horrible. Really concerning behaviour. I don’t even like Yasmin but the way he spoke to her was really undermining and disrespectful.

I voted Shakira and Tommy - mainly because I like the way he handled the Megan situation and also because I’d love to see her face if he’s voted the most popular boy!

LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway · 26/06/2025 22:47

Ben's made me like Yasmin.

And I really disliked her 😆

autumngirl714 · 26/06/2025 22:53

I think Ben should get removed from the island for that behaviour.
It's absolutely not ok on any terms to talk to someone like that.
There's something really dark about him. How he can go from happy giving a hug to so vile and offensive!!
I think many women who have been in an abusive relationship will feel triggered by that. I do.

Well done to Yasmin for how she handled herself. She's gone way up in my book!!!

pinkdelight · 26/06/2025 22:59

Shakira totally had Ben figured out way back. That nasty grin he does when winding girls up. He’s such a pathetic insecure twat it’s the only thing that makes him feel good to get on their nerves and kid himself he has some power over them. Incapable of comprehending it’s him who’s irrelevant. Ugh, I can’t stand the guy. lol at the Bruce Forsyth comparison.

lol at the date too. Sitting in some soil saying that get on well. Fair play they are both smart enough to keep the chat going like pro’s but they are not remotely hot for each other.

Sort of interesting that it was Toni and Shakira who made the Ben/Yasmin argument happen. Nothing new really developed, they just stirred it up a bit and sent Yasmin back in. Guess there had to be some drama and nothing’s going on for them otherwise but it felt manufactured, even more than usual.

I’m glad there’s been some clear break ups, but they’ll have to resettle somehow. Sure the outcome of the vote will have some restrategising. Helena might get back with Harry so they’ve had the journey and (yawn) unfinished business can be finished. I’m not especially rooting for anyone at this point, though I wouldn’t mind Tommy and Emily having a go at being a sweet sexless couple. I’d quite like Poppy to return at some point.

Polaopposite · 26/06/2025 23:17

Ben’s attitude is disgusting. As a pp said, Shakira had him sussed a while back. The girls really do have slim pickings, as always!
Alima is gorgeous with an amazing figure, surprised she’s not getting more attention. They really need to get a proper hot guy in there.

Tulipsparkle · 26/06/2025 23:28

Well done to Yasmin for not reacting to that man child, I'm not sure how she kept her cool. Ben's comments were verging on bullying behaviour.

Hopefully he goes tomorrow along with Remell!

I think Toni might like Harrison but I think she's holding back as she's sussed that the feelings might not be completely mutual from him and she won't want to feel humiliated.

I think the boys might be scared of a possible reaction from Alima as she doesn't seem to take any crap! Not sure they would meet her expectations.

Polaopposite · 27/06/2025 00:20

I wondered if Harrison, going in later, had seen that Toni was popular on the outside and seen her as a possible ticket to the end. I really like Toni but she seems much older than him.

Plasticwaste · 27/06/2025 03:20

Lol at the favourite boy and girl votes coming straight after Remell and Ben's masterclass in how to be insecure ego-driven sexist prats. The producers know what they're doing.

I clocked those two the moment Ben said Shakira needed "humbling" and Remell prioritised impressing the lads instead of Alima with that load of nonsense about sleeping with five women in one night or whatever it was. Sleazy, stupid, red-pill, red-flag boys. I hope they're both dumped.

Hope someone lovely comes in for Alima. Couldn't believe my ears when Remell told her she should sleep outside!!

Love Yas and hope she can find a romantic spark with someone.

Absolutely. The Ben comment about Shakira in the very first few days was telling. Combine that with his treatment of Yasmin and we have a lazy man-child (who is as thick as mince) giving off woman hater vibes. Kick him out.

DildoSaggins · 27/06/2025 08:19

Just caught up on last night.

Well isn't Ben a prize prick. Hope he goes after the way he spoke to Yasmin. She held herself well though and didn't stoop to his level thank god. I actually quite like her and wouldn't want her to go, I think there is so much more to her that we haven't seen yet, but have a feeling she will.

I voted for Helena and Harrison. I think Harrison is such a lovely guy. Nothing not to like about him. I was going to vote for Tommy but I think he will get heaps of votes and be very safe so I gave mine to Harrison for that reason.

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 27/06/2025 08:39

Just came on to check we were all in agreement that Remell and Ben are terrible people. Glad to see we all agree

The saying when someone shows you who they are, believe them stands ttrue.

Right at the start with Remell and his 5 women in one night and Ben wanted Shakira to be humbled.

AFrolicOfMyOwn · 27/06/2025 08:53

I’m slightly struggling to understand why Harrison applied for the show. It’s one thing to be a perfectly nice person - but you need a lot more than that to be entertaining on a show about finding a sexual partner (or at least appearing to do so for the purposes of TV).

He doesn’t flirt, he isn’t even vaguely interested in any of the women other than as casual friends. It seems a little dishonest to waste viewers’ time like this just for the sake of a public profile.
