Love Island UK, Summer 2025 🏝 - Started Monday 9th June at 9pm on ITV2 ... THREAD 3

[LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway]

On week 5 now (I think,) and I don't think there is one single solid couple at the moment. They're all over the place! 😬

Continued from Thread 2. (Obvs!)

Ha, true, apart from the 'big pile of bollocks', which I appreciated.

Funny you should say that. I think she does that in real life. Dressing up.

Agree with all except I don't see what Connor and Shakira would scrap about. Whether they work out together or not, they don't feel like scrappy types. She can't be arsed with aggro and he's fairly chill.

He got moody with her about the Harry comment and when she made a joke to him just after he blanked her and wouldn’t look at her. She then commented about ‘oh I guess we’re not laughing’ and the camera cut to elsewhere. It seemed like he was pissed off with her so I reckon they will have words. Maybe scrap is too strong a word for it!

New Bombshell looks two a penny. Nothing unique about her. Same old.

Yeah I agree I think Conor's going to have a sulk over what Shakira said when she was asked about feelings with him and Harry. Totally get why Shakira said that, they've barely been together a day, but that is a time where I think a white lie would've been better than being straight up brutally honest. If only to stop Harry's ego growing any more, that 'could get Shakira back if I wanted' comment yesterday was just gross.

I'm not saying who but apparently the new bombshell is someone's Ex.😐

This is what I think but there is something odd between her and Harry - he’s definitely more like his old self around her.

This is brilliant! I’ve still got to catch the last season of The Handmaid’s tale, might be an easier watch!

I think Emma and Harry’s conversation was code for, look, only 2 weeks left, time to get the endgame started, get back together, win, & we’ll be £50k better off, we can do a lot for the house with that, good job it hasn’t sold yet. Harry was playing the innocent in his usual disingenuous way, with Emma pointing out that time is getting short. The master plan all along….

I’m getting the impression that most (if not all) of the girls dislike Emma. I’ve seen her comforting Lauren, but Lauren was quick to say “that was her plan all along” earlier. Meg and Helena were both blatantly rude to her in the dressing room and no one said anything at all when Meg called her a twat.

I think Emma’s convo with Helena was prompted by producers too. They had nothing to discuss really.

A lot of it is probably driven by Harry. He told the lads that she wants to rekindle, she asked him to the hideaway, she asked if he still loves her etc. Most of that isn’t true and he was leading that conversation! But he puts it all on her so that she looks delulu to the other girls and in response, they want to bring her down a peg or two.

But surely there’s no planet on which Harry and Emma win, and as Emma is so wired into the show’s narrative she must know that. Perhaps she means post-show deals rather than winning the actual prize. So what they get up to after the show means both in their relationship and their media career (in their heads).

I agree with above regarding Connor, he was not happy with what Harrison said. He probably feels like a mug, that Shakira has put him down behind his back, he will definitely say something to her.
I think Harrison purposely bought that up to get back at Shakira for going straight to Toni to tell her about the flossing.
I also agree that there is some kind of game plan with Emma and Harry, although she’s coming across as quite unhinged really.
Hopefully the new girl will go for Cash.

They said “an angel defends into the villa”….. could it be a Victoria secrets angel?

also wyf is going on with Emma? She’s all over the place! I definitely got the vibe that her and Harrison had pre planned something. Thy were definitely talking in code! And then for her to go on the hunt for Helena… it was so random and so bizarre?!

I feel worried for Shakira and Conner?

Her name is Angel, she a model and she’s stunning. They’ve posted her on the LI Instagram page and people have linked her page.

Cach is such a gent. Hopefully he does well after this show, he's the whole package.

I wish I could bottle up their confidence and ability to twist something negative into a positive during that game.

“Coasting, you say? Yeah, I suppose we are really steady!”

🙈

Enjoyed that! Emma must have producers in her ear but I don't even care because that was FUN.

It is a villa of villains.

Curious to know if any of the chats we see aren't prompted by producers.
The dental flossing scene even looked suss .. lol
Fed up of seeing the brushing of teeth scenes and tongues 👅

I actually don’t think Harry & Emma have a game plan, I feel like Harry would probably go back there for a shag especially if he had nothing else going on but I don’t think he’s planned to get back with her, not yet anyway. He’s enjoying trying it on with different women & surely the redemption arc would have been bringing Emma back from Casa after realising he still loves her.

Emma on the other hand I think came in for Harry, either because she wanted him back or because she heard he was going on & wanted to cause some drama. Tonight Harry seemed less interested in rekindling (although admittedly he didn’t 100% shut it down) but Emma’s giving ‘if I can’t have you nobody can’ vibes to me & it doesn’t look good on her. I don’t know why she’d want him back anyway after the way he’s been/continues to be on here.

Tbf to him though he did say he ‘has love for her’ which isn’t the same as ‘I still love you’ like Emma was feeding back to Helena, but I also think he enjoys the attention so doesn’t want to completely cut it off.

As a side note considering they still have a house together I don’t think either of them should be on there really!

I definitely think producers have told Emma to stir up trouble with Harry. We’re getting close to the finishing line now. Surprised they still have a house together so maybe that’s why they want to win the £50k. Hoping bombshell goes for either Cach or Boris tho I’m guessing she’s in there to stir shit with either Mustard, Harry, Harrison or Connor

You didn't notice the covers moving up and down then and a foot kicking them down to keep them covered?

I’m still trying to get my head around Emma. The Emma we saw last night is completely different from the Emma we saw in Casa.

Maybe she’s bored and has gone a bit stir-crazy. I know I would. Maybe her anger towards Harry has subsided and now she’s back to the Emma they were when they were together.

Last night, Emma did the unthinkable for me…she made me feel a bit of sympathy for Helena. So maybe that’s the producers’ plan?

All very strange.

Just remembered Harry’s “Freak” comment to Emma when they had a chat in Casa. At the time, I thought it was such a strange thing to say. But now I’m not so sure.

Exactly this... I thought Emma's behaviour last night made Helena look like an angel. She won't realise it now but Emma going in has done her a massive favour.
