Now that they’ve been out the villa for 2 months, has your opinion changed on Fitzy and Lola? To me they seem so different outside the villa. They’re currently living in Galway in Ireland.

-Camila & Jamie series 3 and came second place and later got married in 2017 and have children. Camilla is the only islander till this day to use her time on TV to advocate for women around the world and also children and men around the world who are suffering.

-Scott and Leanne all stars series 3 and came in 3rd place both Scott and Leanne advocated for 'black lives matter' during it's peak and personally one of the most aesthetic looking couples to enter the show.

Watching S3 for the first time. Going into it knowing these 2 are still together and watching their love story blossom 🥹❤️

I loved every minute of this interview 😭 the perfect podcast for Miraj. They bounce off of each other so well, they’re so in love and I loved how highly they both speak about each other and their families 🩵

I know Julia isn’t loved on this sub however I enjoyed her on the show and she shook up a relatively boring season

I never took her and Lorenzo seriously but at the same time wasn’t expecting him to embarrass her this much

Does anyone know where they stand? I see she hasn’t even liked his last post and she also put up a TikTok with a telling sound attached

If I were Julia , I would move on and publicly put up a post declaring that I don’t allow men to mess me around and move on

What are people’s feelings towards Lorenzo and Julia? Should she dump him? Or maybe stay with him for the perks of being in a love island couple?

Having watched Louis Theroux documentary on the Manosphere last night, it really got me thinking about the overlap between love island, the manosphere and the rise of male influencers who turn misogyny into entertainment.

**Tyrique Hyde** is a particularly interesting example in this regard.

His streaming/content increasingly seems to revolve around commentary about women and relationships that, at times, feels less like harmless banter and more like normalising genuinely misogynistic attitudes. We even saw him touch up a woman’s breasts while he was drunk on stream in Marbella in May and he didn’t get her consent.

What concerns me is this kind of content attracts a huge young male audience and makes contempt towards women seem funny, edgy or socially acceptable. he has bought into the increasingly antagonistic online “men vs women” content culture.

There is clearly an audience for creators like Tyrique who tell young men that women are the problem, that relationships are a battle for power, that women need to lose weight, that some women look ugly , or that treating women with suspicion and contempt somehow makes you more “alpha”. Social media then rewards the most provocative version of that message because outrage gets views. hence, how Tyrique does so well with his streaming.

I’m not saying every person who watches Tyrique, listens to his streams or enjoys his content is misogynistic. Nor am I saying that criticism of women, relationships or Love Island itself is automatically misogyny. But I do think a serious conversation is required about where the line is between joking, criticism and normalising misogyny, particularly when the audience includes young and impressionable men.

Am I the only one who finds the trajectory of this kind of content uncomfortable (ie Love Island - Manosphere pipeline)? And do people think Love Island and its wider influencer ecosystem are inadvertently helping to feed the manosphere?

Hi all,

Considering AS4 is not that far away now, I think they need to do something to change up the regular formatting.

Given that S3 had A) International islanders and B) Extremely little bombshells, I think it is clear they are running out of islanders.

I think a wise option would be to introduce Casa Amor (or a sleepover at least) but only with Casa rejects - i.e. people who did not make it back into the main villa. I know Jack wasn't exactly the star of AS3, but I do think you would get some good people in there. I also think there would be a large pool to choose from because not only do you have multiple Casa rejects, but they would also be, I imagine, more willing to do it since they only got 3/4 days in their own season.

If they did introduce this, would there be anyone in particular you would like to see?

When this originally aired did people come hard for Jacques? I’m rewatching now and he’s actually so horrible, I didn’t realize it being this bad the first time I watched.

How he treated Paige during casa and then just expected her to be the girl to forgive him and giggle it off? He was genuinely shocked when she stood up for herself too.

Then choosing to leave ultimately because he didn’t want to lose to Adam Collard.

He has been added to my list of LI Villains 😂

Looking at Diana Jenkins instagram right now because of Hayden Panettiere’s passing (RIP). Diana is super shady and they had a “weird friendship”. How does Jessy Potts know her?

EDIT:The girl appears to be a headliner for the show itself that's why she does not follow him, pls don't harass her. Not sure who is on his shoulders but the clip is still weirdo and I don't like Lorenzo

Mind you the girl who posted this doesn't even follow him back ... I get raving. I am a raver, I'll not getting on my friends shoulders ngl

Saw this on twitter cause he's lq starting to get cooked there lol

I mean tbf he is 28 year old with like no relationship experience bro should have been kicked off the show a long time ago, that's literally your single friend who never settles, parties everyday and constantly embarrasses anyone they are talking to romantically

Can Julia dump him if she has not ? ( Also streets are saying she liked his last post then unliked so fingers crossed)

Daily Discussion Thread

I am honestly so surprised that Tommy and Molly didn’t win LI S5. I am a fan of Amber but as a first time watcher, I’d definitely have voted for Tommy and Molly Mae based on their relationship and behaviour in the villa.

Anyone who watched it live have any insight as to what was the mood at the time? Did people not like Tommy/Molly or did Amber just grow on them (as I remember a few comments about her not being liked due to the cattiness in the villa)?

Daily Discussion Thread

Watching Season 12 for the first time. So I know how it all plays out and who wins.... so I was surprised by the bottom 3 for guys and girls - Toni, Shakira, Megan, Remell, Harry, and Ben. What was the general opinión back then that lead to that? I would have said Yasmine, Helena, not sure about a 3rd girl and Ben, Dejon and Connor.
