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! 😬

Shakira and Toni are clever, crafty and mean, archetypal school bullies. Don’t be fooled.

I’m not a fan either.

LookForTheLiight · 13/07/2025 11:36

I’m just catching up. Actually feel sorry for Meg. Dijon is snaking her, Helena is snaking her. She’s kept her circle small and she’s now looking quite alone.

copi1ot · 13/07/2025 12:27

Just posting to get rid of MN sending me to the bottom of every page - sorry.

NeverTalksToStrangers2 · 13/07/2025 12:32

I love Shakira, Toni and Yasmin (but I dislike Shakira's overly 90s accessories and hair most of the time 😂).

I saw a comment on twitter re Harrison thinking Toni isn't hot enough for him, which i think is true. It will be interesting to see what happens tonight. Hopefully she doesn't just take him back immediately.

Helena is an unusual one. She has obviously changed a lot physically in the past 10 years so might have confidence issues. She seems to want to give off the impression that she's utterly unphased and 100% cool girl when in reality she's a massive pick-me. Now that Emily and Megan have gone her clique is much smaller and so it was very unwise to be laughing at Meg behind her back. I do think the producers went a bit easy on her in movie night but the Meg bits are likely to cause the most issues for her anyway.

I don't even think Harry fancies Helena that much or that he has an undeniable connection with her. I think enough people told him that to make him slightly believe it might be true. At least Harrison has youth on his side to explain his immaturity. The right woman for Harry is NOT in that villa (if the poor girl actually exists at all).

Dejon definitely has a type in that the 2 women he's been most interested in (Meg and Andrada) both have a certain facial expression (that we see most of the time) that can only be described as 'smell-the-fart' acting (joey from friends reference there, lol). Sadly my own RBF isn't any better.

Am I the only person who actively dislikes Tommy?? He makes me cringe with his cheeky chappie shite.

First look is round 5million of Meg and Mustard boring. And Harrison and Toni most likely getting back together.

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 13/07/2025 14:23

Just seen First Look and Dejohn is awful. Expecting Meg to be grateful for him closing off the relationship and not mention her red flags.

Also, the way he spoke to Andrana when she pointed out he had led her on together with how he previously slammed Billykiss when she did the same.

Send him packing

Rollergirl11 · 13/07/2025 14:59

Yep Dejon is a perfect example of a man using DARVO tactics whenever he is questioned on his actions. He used every single one in that short First look clip alone. It’s horrible to watch.

GoldenNuggets08 · 13/07/2025 16:47

Vote open tonight for most compatible couple. Praaaaaying Dejon and Megan come last! It would be hilarious

Thanks for the heads up. I normally don't watch live so miss the voting. I'll be watching live tonight now!

Me too. I always miss the votes.

Givemethesun · 13/07/2025 17:36

I really don’t like Helena but I wonder if she’s just there to enjoy the experience and that’s why she comes across as she does, ie she doesn’t really care about Harry she’s just trying to have fun and not take it too seriously

jay55 · 13/07/2025 17:54

I’m not entirely sure who the couples are. They all seem to drop whoever they’re with the day after a recoupling

I struggle too. Also forget who's been with who... bar the usual suspects obvs. And not sure of all the casa people's names, apart from Armada/Andromeda/Armadillo and Cach.

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 13/07/2025 19:14

Even if Dejon and Meg come in the bottom three they’ll blame it on recent difficulties and make sure they never argue again.

Although we’ve seen so little of most of the other couples that I doubt they will. I can’t even remember the names of most of them outside Meg, Helena, Shakira and Toni or Dejon, Harry and Harrison. Who’s going to vote for couples we never see ?

Phelicity · 13/07/2025 20:45

I don’t think any of the couples are really compatible. Some of the recently re-coupled are getting on ok so far, but the rest of them are an ever-shifting scene, apart from Meg and dejon, and they’re on very shaky ground. Can you even call Helena & Harry a couple?

jay55 · 13/07/2025 21:10

I’m not sure any couples will remain by the time we can vote. Imploding all around.

Lampzade · 13/07/2025 21:16

kerstina · 12/07/2025 17:26

Am I the only one who feels a bit sorry for Ben. I think he lacks confidence hence why he reads self help books. As much as I like Shakira she was quite dismissive of him too like she didn’t respect him. I always try and treat people with respect even if they are a bit of an idiot 😂

No . He is a misogynistic prick. Very nasty man

ShadowTheHedgehog · 13/07/2025 21:18

I wish Harrison would just leave Toni alone. When they were in a couple he was not interested in her. When she cut things off, he pretty much begged for her back. She's trying to progress in her new couple and now he keeps pulling her for chats and flirts too much with her. It's like he can't stand to see her move on, yet doesn't really want her

Lampzade · 13/07/2025 21:20

Stef3 · 12/07/2025 09:21

I wish they showed more of the other couples. Surely Billikiss and Boris say and do something interesting?? They seem perfectly articulate and charming the little we do see.

Yes! She is bright and capable of intelligent, interesting conversation - and calling out Dejon and no doubt others too. Boris is naturally witty. They are both gorgeous too. Why on Earth aren’t they being shown even a little bit? I also like Conor and feel like he talks about other stuff other than just sitting there people watching and bitching.

Yes, would like to see Boris and BillyKiss
Sick of Dejon/Meg and Harry Helena debacle

jay55 · 13/07/2025 21:21

Harrison has gone off his Casa girl and so is hedging with Toni. No idea why Toni isn’t sticking to her new chap who is a million times more respectful.

Agree. I really like Cach. He seems emotionally intelligent

WinterOnItsWayOut · 13/07/2025 21:24

Can someone say when the vote opens please as I’m on catchup! Thanks 🙏

autumngirl714 · 13/07/2025 21:26

What do Harrison and Toni actually like about eachother? They aren't even nice to eachother! Toni is just constantly telling him to "stop it" and Harrison being hostile.

I reckon the penny has dropped that her remarks add a bit of charisma so he might be onto a winner. But maybe I’m being cynical.

Phelicity · 13/07/2025 21:29

Toni wants Harrison.
