We've nearly filled up thread 3 and don't think there was a thread 4?!

I honestly don’t know how you can view what’s happening and conclude that Priya is the nasty one. Priya is being constantly nit picked by Julia and is defending herself. Julia has had it out for Priya and has been gunning for her over the last week, ever since they had that squabble over Priya trying to have a private conversation with Lorenzo.

If it looks like Julia is isolated, it’s because she can’t stop being rude to the girls and they’re sick of her. Watching her sob to Lorenzo about how she is triggering the girls and she doesn’t know why is laughable. She knows exactly why she’s triggering them and it’s because she’s constantly commenting negatively about them.

It's the other way round , how you can't see it i don't know. But hey ho different opinions. Aftersun audience seemed to see through Priya as I do

What is Priya doing to Julia other than reacting to her?

It’s glaringly obvious now why Lola attempted to completely disengage from Julia, she knew it would never actually end.

As I said different opinions hey ho. Let it go . Think Priya showed her true nature with these nasty Elicia comments , says it all

Mygiddyvalentine · 23/07/2026 23:01

Really uncomfortable watching the girls against Julia. Julia is absolutely voicing the patterns that are abundantly clear but I do agree with Lorenzo it is not worth giving advice if she is going to end up upset.

Jas and Simba were pretty decent tonight especially Simba, he stood up for Julia when the others were gunning for her.

Priya is on the ropes now and is kicking wildly. Julia makes her feel so insecure that she literally hates her now but that is because she has one foot out the door and that is too much to face. She will be fine once she gets out.

Mica and Samraj, I hope they stay together it would be a good thing for them and for everyone.

Mygiddyvalentine · 23/07/2026 23:01

Shakira is terrible on the debrief.

Empress13 · 23/07/2026 23:05

Julia is like an android she is monotone expressionless really weird and I agree with others that she is deliberately trying to l wind Priya up and then acts the innocent with Lorenzo.

Empress13 · 23/07/2026 23:07

Aquarius1234 · 23/07/2026 22:18

I wonder why Mica applied for Love Island UK, or why production found her randomly.

Why?

13570user · 23/07/2026 23:08

Samraj looked furious when Tommy and Yaz picked him and Mica for the least compatible couple. I think Tommy was trying to give a reason for picking them that didn’t sound personal.

I wish someone would tell Mica to stop shrieking. She probably thinks she sounds girlie and cute.

Empress13 · 23/07/2026 23:09

TBH this has got to be one of the bitchiest series I’ve seen. Don’t really care for any of them but reckon it will
be Yas and Tom and Ange (thanks to her) and Simba in final

Aquarius1234 · 23/07/2026 23:14

Empress13 · 23/07/2026 23:07

Why?

Maybe she has a relative on the show? Is what I heard ages ago.

Aquarius1234 · 23/07/2026 23:14

Yes lots of ranting.

Mygiddyvalentine · 23/07/2026 23:20

My guess for the finalists

5th Mica and Samraj
4th Yas and Tommy (though I wish they were higher and in number 3 but Jas has a lot of support)
3rd Jas and Kav
2nd Angelista and Simba (largely carried by the lovely Angelista but Simba is on a very slow redemption arc)

1st Julia and Lorenzo

Aidan and Priya gone tomorrow night.

Why do you say this? I love her & generally agree with what she’s saying! Toni is my favourite & they can bin off Yas, but I Shakira is fab!

Agreed. I actually think this is why Lola didn’t want to engage with Julia as she’s hard to reason with. The person that Julia should be most concerned with is Lorenzo but she’s repeatedly inserting herself and offering her unwanted opinions in every conversation.

I agree. As another poster said, Julia has been gunning for Priya since Priya “dared” to have a conversation with Lorenzo. That’s when all this nonsense started.

If you notice, Julia tried to do the exact same thing with Jaz after Jaz and Lorenzo’s conversation but Jaz didn’t bite. She told Jaz she thought Jaz was fake or whatever it was and straightaway Jaz said okay let’s leave it there.

Julia seems very insecure and is watching Lorenzo like a hawk. Any woman who tries to continue a friendship with him is in her firing line.

And all this about it only bothering Priya because it’s true is nonsense. If someone kept telling me the same thing over and over again, bringing it up in every conversation, talking about it to everybody else constantly then I would be annoyed too, regardless of whether that thing was true or false.

Julia is a bully. Why does she care so much about somebody else’s relationship? Why does she care so much if Priya is playing a game? Because she wants to win.

Priya keeps asking Julia her opinion and then getting upset that it's not what she wants.

I also don't like the narrative that it's the way Julia says things. Apparently saying the same things behind your back is the correct way to behave.

Her aunt Mia Motley (mum’s sister) is the PM of Barbados so I’m guessing that’s how she got on

Yes I agree. I do think Julia should stop saying things but there is a whole mini scapegoat vibe going on with Julia as happened with all of the Casa girls. The OGs have been particularly awful towards the Casa girls this year.

I think Shakira was really poor with Sean and Lola. Lola was absolutely awful to Julia.

Priya is asking Julia to clarify because Julia keeps changing her stance depending on the time of day and who she is speaking to; it’s frustrating and confusing for Priya.

Julia has been told that her nitpicking of Priya is hurtful and yet she is like a dog with a bone and won’t let it go. At that point, it’s a choice.

This is born out of Julia’s complete disbelief that Aiden would prefer Priya to Elicia which in itself is pretty rough.

Julia is insecure in her own couple and finds it easier to point the finger at every one else. She tried it with Jas too, Jas just didn’t give it much headspace.

Exactly. Lorenzo seems to spend very little time with Julia and even refuses to pronounce her name correctly. I think she’s probably used to men falling at her feet and because Lorenzo is clearly not like that, she is spiralling. She is very concerned about other people’s relationships, and Priya is an easy target.

Why, if she thinks the relationship is fake, is she focusing all her ire on Priya? Why does she not speak to Aidan about it?

How was Lola awful? Julia literally told Lola to kiss her arse.

They’re really gunning for Julia, she must feel so isolated. Yas and Angelista need to speak up. They’re not joining in the pile on, but they’re not sticking up for her either. Probably protecting their own position in the pack.

The scene in the dressing room with all the girls surrounding Julia and talking over her was uncomfortable viewing.

see i thought it was uncomfortable because Julia was being so unreasonable! She isn’t opinionated, she is downright rude and uses the ‘opinion’ card to interfere with other people’s relationships. Lola and Fitz - saying Fitz wasn’t that into Lola. Priya and Aidan - pulling Aidan for a ‘chat’ to basically ask why on earth he preferred priya. And now more recently saying they are fake and just want to get to the final. They all want to get to the final! And only one I can actually see working at all on the outside is Angie and Simba, the others are surface level.
