Season 2 Love GIF by LoveIslandUSA

Gosh it's almost June already!

Season 13 will apparently have a World Cup theme - trying to recapture the magic of 2018 maybe?

I've heard there will also be more games as well, for fans of those.

Will anyone join me? I promise Gifs, gossip and judgement as always 🤭

Please expect spoilers from the First Look and tabloids 👀🏝

Every year, it's so interesting how much I/we judge a book by its cover.
Eg Lorenzo - my first impression was that he was incredibly handsome; he'd be hugely confident; very popular with women; fairly experienced.
However, in the dance-off, he looked mortified and really awkward. And in the snogging, he looked in a total panic when he was chosen.

Ope - handsome; confident; sexy; fun.
However, now it's clear that he's a bit awkward and doesn't really know how to flirt; friend zoned regularly.

Actually, for both of them, I wonder if part of their issue is that confident women are approaching them or DMing them based on their look, then finding out they're actually quite meek or childish or awkward 🤔

Its me 😪😪

Looking forward to tonight after a crazy day sorting my bloody mot 🙄🙄

Ready to see who goes. My guess is angelista and samraj - samraj will be a loss i think 😕

Loving reading along with the chat and gifs on this thread. For me Samraj is the cutest male and Jasmine is classy and way too good for Lorenzo. Who is at best a pretty boy but lacking any substance. Cannot see the appeal looks wise with Fitzy but I felt his character/personality shows potential. Loving the chat from the three girls on the after show too.

Ohcrap082024 · 03/06/2026 19:34

My take at the moment:

Lorenzo - yep, male validation is on point, like a 16 year old.

Aiden - looking to lock in quickly with Ellie as he has his eyes on the prize. The 50k. He’s giving Jake (Libby) vibes.

Lola - is acting like a bit of an air head. Either she is and she was a rubbish copper or she isn’t really that vacuous and is playing the game. No copper I’ve ever known is as dim as what we have seen from Lola thus far.

Angelista - disappearing into the background.

George - could be a very interesting character. Same for Fitzy/Sean. Both have the potential to get wound up by shithousery.

Mica - too nice for this process. If she stays in, she is likely to get hurt.

Robyn - will crash and burn.

Sam - lovely fella but on the wrong show. As is Jasmine.

Yasmin - looks like a Scouse version of Welsh Nicole.

Ope - meh!

Samraj - might be at risk.

Hard agree with your takes!

Really not a fan of aiden, I reckon he will slip up and get into beef

The mask will slip

CaptainBeefheartspal · 03/06/2026 21:13

Not sure Lorenzo is into her, think he’ll go for the other Yaz. Jasmine would be better with Samraj I think - they seemed to have a spark.

Ellie is going to be a bit jealous - Aidan’s picked up on it.

honeyrider · 03/06/2026 21:18

Aidan talks some shite.

😄 just pure 'chat' coming out of his mouth

forcedtonamechange · 03/06/2026 21:20

Angelista, this guy likes blondes 🙄

Youre on a tv show, you cant be quiet! 😄

Rollergirl11 · 03/06/2026 21:24

I feel like Angelista just can’t be bothered. Why is she there?!

Rollergirl11 · 03/06/2026 21:26

And what is Sam doing? He’s not talking to any of the girls.

CaptainBeefheartspal · 03/06/2026 21:27

Mika is lovely but she’s not great at flirty banter or in depth conversations.

IHadaMarvelousTimeRuiningEverything · 03/06/2026 21:28

Why do some of the girls seem to like George. I wonder if he's better looking in person.

Agree

I dunno - she was sat there when all of the men said 'my type is blonde'

Plus the new guy didnt even pull her for a chat

But she could still try and be pleasant and getting some screen time

Shes very Antigoni - very PR trained

Heidi2018 · 03/06/2026 21:29

If they don't fancy people there is no point forcing it either. I hate when people try force something that's not there. I wish we could skip past the first few episodes of the chats bullshite and just see them actually get to know each other more naturally!

forcedtonamechange · 03/06/2026 21:29

Obsessed with the police woman Lola's flirting style being: pushing her boobs onto hotirishman 😄😄
