Love Island viewers are left shocked at the biggest divide in show's history as tensions reach breaking point just days before finale

Daily Mail​19 hours ago
Love Island viewers left shocked during Wednesday's episode as the girls proved the divide was still well and truly in place.
Called the biggest divide in the show's history, the entire series has centred around the ongoing feud between the two groups of girls: Shakira, Toni and Yas versus Meg and Helena.
The Islanders continued to take part in the tense Couple Goals challenge - but when the Islanders were asked 'Which couple are you most scared to give your honest opinion on?' shockwaves were sent through the Villa.
Shakira and Harry chose Meg and Dejon, which did not go down well.
'I think if people were honest in the first place and told us to our faces instead of saying it constantly behind our back, it would be a different story,' Meg raged.
Shakira responded: 'You throwing around the fake word is rich to be honest. I don't know why you keep acting like we're the best of mates in here.
'From day one, you were very standoffish with any girl that was posed as a threat.'
'I think you've called every single person in this Villa fake,' Meg bit back, to which Shakira said: 'No, I will never pretend to be your mate.'
Meg interrupted 'You won't be my friend on the outside' before Shakira said: 'I will never speak to you on the outside. I honestly can't stand you sometimes.'
But that wasn't all because when it comes to Meg and Dejon's turn to answer, both Meg and Blu become embroiled in a back and forth with Toni before Blu brands Toni a 'pick-me girl'.
The chaos came just two episodes after Toni brought the girls around the firepit to try and bridge the divide and call a truce.
But recent scenes have shown the divide is as strong as ever.
Viewers said: 'The divide is actually insane… i'm sat here raging at my TV screen,';
'I've watched love island since Series 1 and this series is hands down the most uncomfortable to watch. This girl divide is f****n awful. The smart ass comments thrown about, the sly digs, the ganging up on 1 girl…it's actually draining,';
'The Great Villa Divide of 2025 is alive and well,'; 'I've never seen THIS strong of a divide in the villa before,';
'so funny they had a whole convo about no more divide and now it's like even worse AHAHAHAH,';
'So much for Tonie and Meg wanting to squash the divide between the girls .. It's gone further apart since their girls intervention the other night'.
While others noted that they had never seen such a 'toxic' series, especially with the finale just days away.
They wrote: 'I've never seen such a hostile final week omg these lot are about to start a world war…
'It's the final week and there's STILL drama??? this literally never happens,' 'The most toxic love island season ever,';
'The most toxic love island season ever - they really hate each other and it will be awkward for them on the outside,';
Viewers said: 'The divide is actually insane… i'm sat here raging at my TV screen'
'This season is so toxic. The producers seem to be pushing harmful narratives but we will have confirmation when the winners are announced. That was an uncomfortable watch. Disgusting,';
'Why are the cast so toxic with each other wtf never seen anything like this imagine the reunion,'; 'THIS IS THE MOST TOXIC SEASON OF LOVE ISLAND EVER.'
The chaos of Wednesday's episode came just days after Toni pulled Meg to clear the air as she blamed the boys in the villa for the apparent divide between the girls.
The US-native, 24, pulled her fellow islander, 25, to the fire as she confess that the believed the root of all their problems were the boys.
As they sit down in the iconic villa, Toni tells her: 'What I think is the root of the divide, is really the boys.'
To which Meg says: 'It's so stupid for us to argue over these little things.'
While others noted that they had never seen such a 'toxic' series, especially with the finale just days away
Toni adds: 'I know that we're all friends at the end of the day', that prompts Meg to say: 'I'm not going to hold any grudges against what you guys said. You know I love you.'
The pair then decided to gather all of the girls over, too.
Toni said: 'At the end of the day, we know we're all friends here. They're [the boys] the problem!'
The girls all enjoy a group hug as they attempt to put all their previous issues a side.

YES I still (stupidly) believe in love!!!', Kath captioned the post of four black and white photo booth style images, kissing and cuddling with Tilly.

The Australian content creator dated the former Dance Moms celeb for a short period of time before JoJo called it quits, leading Kath to admit they were in a 'dark place' due to the breakup.

MAFS' Adrienne Naylor breaks silence on cracking America on TV show The Challenge after painful injury

MAFS star Adrienne Naylor has broken her silence on taking part on The Challenge US after she sustained an injury early on but bravely carried on. The reality star made history as the first MAFS contestant to appear on an American TV show. 6 6 6 Adrienne, who starred on the E4 dating show in 2023, was treated by paramedics in the back of an ambulance in a preview clip on last night's episode. Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Adrienne said: "That was one thing I didn't anticipate was being injured and going into an ambulance, there's a preview of it in the first episode. "And you'll get to see what fully happens and what comes out, and then what it also leads to as well. So there's a lot to it. "In a foreign country going into an ambulance, not knowing where your fate then lies for the rest of the show, because, you know, I did not pack four suitcases, travel 24 hours to be sent home." The show sees competitors face grueling physical and mental challenges to win $500,000 in prize money in MTV's longest-running series. Adrienne, who regularly shows off gym videos following her fitness journey, said she nearly had to quit the process even before it had started, but was determined more than ever to not pull out. She said: "To be honest, I was so close at one point to saying that I couldn't go on the show because I wasn't prepared enough in my eyes. "I am very critical of myself. I've been on a huge weight loss journey, and the gym's always been there. "But towards the back end of last year I found myself a little bit lost, and I didn't know what direction I was going in, and I just launched a business. So I was trying to manage that. "Then I also had some really bad complications with contraception with the coil. Married At First Sight star Adrienne shows off her 'real body' in tiny bikini on holiday in Antigua "So I was on antibiotics for like two weeks before actually going, and I was like, I don't know if I can actually go. "I couldn't feel my legs. Yeah, it was really, really bad. "And I was like, I don't know if I can go. "But then I was like it's too much of a good experience, no matter how far I get to give this up. "And so I was like, I'm just going to go, even though I'm not as prepared as I was." BEATING MY FEARS The reality favourite admitted she overcame her biggest fears during the show - including being able to deal with the unexpected. "Every time we walked onto set we never, ever knew what it was going to be ever," Adrienne shared. "Many times in the Challenge House, where I think you have your doubts as to why you're there, and what's my purpose. Why am I here? Is this really worth it? "Because it is honestly one of the most demanding and hardest things, the stress on your body that it has." And just when you thought that process was hard enough, Adrienne teased that the series is packed full of drama, tears, rows and secrecy. "I'm not a crier, really but my god, I probably shed enough tears to fill a dam, and it was intense. It's a real emotion," she said. "There's a lot of arguments. There's a lot of big personalities all under one roof, and it can be challenging." But the stunning star from Cumbria admitted that she's a "social butterfly" and used that to her advantage when making alliances. She continued: "It did become stressful because sometimes the UK and America have a different sense of humor, especially with me, I've got such a Northern accent that sometimes they couldn't understand what I was saying. "But overall, for me I can adapt to a lot of situations, and I can adapt to people. "But there probably are a few people in there that I probably don't really care if I ever hear your voice again. "But then there's also a lot of love. There's a lot of people that I've made friends with from the show." NO MEAN FEAT Adrienne opened up about the physical and mental toll the gruelling yet rewarding show took on her. The fitness enthusiast said she prepared for the show with boxing training and building mental resilience after MAFS, following cruel trolling online. She said: "Even though I wasn't where I wanted to be physically, I felt like I still deserved to be there. "I'm so proud of myself for what I did accomplish on the show, and I think I've made a really good impact, and I would love to be reinvited back, and this time to be fitter and stronger. "Since I've been home I've literally been working my bum off in the gym. I've been running. I've been back boxing and just preparing myself when that call comes around because we're manifesting it." She also teased that some contestants will put their foot in it, while she had her own clever game plan when it came to the competition. "I wanted to kind of sit back, see how everything unraveled and play my cards from there, and I didn't want to overspill, " Adrienne said. "There's a lot of people that put their foot in things from having too much alcohol on the plate, and I was not going to be one of them. "There's so much going on you can never really be bored, because it's kind of like bam, bam, bam, bam, like every single episode, it's jam packed full of action, drama, tears, laughter, romance... there's lots of romance... every single thing is covered in one episode." ADRIENNE'S RETURN? Despite the gruelling process, Adrienne said she is gearing up to return to the show and will be in the best shape of her life when she does. She added: "I think if I get the phone call to go back, I'll be answering it in two seconds and say, 'when's my flight?' "And I've been back on my fitness journey properly, being really locked in. I've been running more, I've lived the experience, and I know what I need to do to make myself that bit better. "I feel very lucky and very grateful that things are finally aligned to how I want them to be. I think that I would be going in there as a fresh Adrienne. "Life's a bit more settled now, I will be able to fully focus and fully lock in and now that I've played it already and now I know how to play the game. And I would have a different mentality going in." 6 6 6

Katie Price family panic about her weight loss as mum fears eating disorder and dad has bizarre theory about ‘thin' legs

KATIE Price has admitted her family are worried over her weight loss as her parents called her out about it. The mum-of-five, 47, was joined by her sister Sophie on the first episode of her new podcast, The Katie Price show. 3 3 As the podcast was wrapping up, the sister duo was joined by Sophie's dad and Katie stepdad Paul as talk soon turned to Katie's weight loss. On the episode, Katie, who recently showed off her newest surgery, asked her dad: 'What are you looking at?' to which he replied: 'Look how thin them legs are, terrible they are, my hand can go round them.' She replied: 'They're obsessed with my weight,' as Sophie chimed in: 'You are thin.' Katie was heard insisting: 'I am happy,' as her dad retorted: 'No it's not right, it's probably that vaping crap.' The reality star, who showed off a hilarious snap, continued: 'Mum said last night, you must be bulimic or something. I said… JJ do I throw my food up? No, I eat.' Sophie went on to reveal that their mum Amy called her to tell Katie she was worried about her weight loss. She revealed: 'Mum called me the other day and said I'm going to have a word with Kate because she's too thin. I think mum saw a picture on Instagram and she wasn't happy.' Katie responded: 'My legs do look thin, but I like it.' The I'm A Celebrity star's rapid weight loss has been a topic of discussion for a while now, with even her fans being worried about her. Earlier this week, the former glamour model posted a series of photos of recent family time she's spent with her parents, nieces and son Harvey, 23. Emotional Katie Price reveals Harvey was in tears on the phone after she dropped him off at new home "This week's family photo drop," Katie captioned the post on her official Facebook page. Katie also shared a photo posing with her two nieces where she was standing between them wearing a t-shirt and black leggings. "My beautiful nieces," she captioned the post, but many people were distracted by her very slim frame. "Katie, please gain some weight," commented one fan as another penned: 'Poor Katie.' A third worried follower asked: 'Is she okay?' She previously addressed her fans' worries with a video on Snapchat and said the concerns were 'driving her mad'. Katie admitted in the clip: "Yes I've lost weight. Yes that what I've wanted to do, I've wanted to lose weight. "Because the past three, four years ago when I broke my feet and I was in a wheelchair for 10 months because they said I'd never walk again, and obviously you put weight on being in a wheelchair. "And then I did all the IVF stuff, that also puts on weight. "So yeah I did put on weight and I hated it, I felt uncomfortable and it wasn't me." Continuing to address the backlash, she said: "Everyone is talking about it - it's driving me mad. "If you look at old old pictures of me in the Jordan days, I was always skinny. But today where i have lost weight, I feel, my butt looks like a deflated balloon."
