Another asked: "How did the media team not catch that?"

Love Island fans uncover villa girl's gameplan as they say ‘she's not into him at all' about love interest
LOVE Island fans have become convinced that one couple are set to split after leaving the villa – after picking up on the girl's 'gameplan'. With the series finale coming tomorrow, the last few days of the villa have seen the islanders begin to lock down their romances. 6 Love Island fans aren't convinced angel and Ty are in it for the long haul 6 SThe Love Island couple are just days away from the finale 6 Fans think Angel's jetset luxury lifestyle won't fit with Ty's working class background Credit: instagram But after Ty asked Angel if they could 'go exclusive' – essentially making them boyfriend/girlfriend in all but name – her reaction has left viewers believing there's doubt in place for Angel. Throw in differing lifestyles, and some are thinking that they could already be on the way out. A Reddit poster explained: 'Hear me out. Angel is a fairly big Instagram influencer, who if you look at her instagram seems to be all about the boujee life. 'Her entire feed is her hanging with super stunning models all with huge followings on yachts in Spain, ski trips in the French Alps, constant trips to Dubai and seems to be living a pretty expensive glamorous life.' 'Ty is a sweetheart but does seem just like a genuine working class guy from a normal background,' they added. 'Absolutely nothing wrong with that, I just find it hard to believe this is the type of guy Angel is genuinely interested in with the lifestyle she projects on Instagram.' They added that 'girls who live that lifestyle seem to often be looking for a certain type of man', and continued: 'Last night's episode was when I really noticed it most. 'There is a certain distance in the way she connects with him, especially when he asked her to go exclusive, everything is just kind of wafty and airy in her voice and doesn't seem real or passionate about anything he has to say.' 'I believe she is a huge game player like Dejon but isn't as dumb as him to make it so obvious to those in the villa or the public,' they concluded, saying she "goes with the flow and doesn't cause drama", allowing Angel to skirt through. Other posters quickly picked up on the moment, and agreed that something about Angel and Ty's romance didn't feel authentic. 'Not gonna lie, I don't buy Angel's act at all. She was definitely eyeing up Harry from the jump, but obviously wanted to secure a spot in Meg's little 'mother hen' squad for that protection,' replied one. 'And because she rocked up late, she just clung to Ty as a safe bet. 'Get her out' rant Love Island fans as they call for 'sly' star to be kicked off the show 'Half the stuff Angel says is just silly, like she's trying to be something, but ends up being absolutely nothing.' 'I thought she liked him up until last night, when he asked her to go exclusive,' agreed a second. 'Like you said her reaction was very wishy washy. 'However in saying that they are quite fresh, so maybe she was just taken aback by how soon it was. 'Ty was also really her only option, and it just so happened he was single at the time.' 'When they leave the villa, he'll be in the influencer lifestyle too so I think they'll last whilst they're riding the fame, and whilst they're all in London constantly for events and interviews and stuff,' noted a third. 'And when the love island 2025 hype dies down, those break up statements will be out on instagram 😂' Others commented on the fact that she claimed that distance would be an issue for them as they start their relationship – asking 'why that was an issue when she travels the world but can travel 150 miles to Barnsley' where Ty's based. Ty and Angel are within breathing distance of the finish line, with the finale airing tomorrow night and a new winning couple being crowned. However, their position in the finale isn't secured just yet, with one last shock dumping set to rock the villa in scenes set to air tonight. The remaining couples still in the villa are: Ty and Angel, Meg and Dejon, Toni and Cach, Shakira and Harry, and Yasmin and Jamie. Who will be our top four for this year? Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2. 6 Angel often boasts about the multiple countries she visits on Instagram Credit: instagram 6 Will Ty and Angel survive in the outside world?

Watch moment Love Island stars left in shock as Maya Jama returns for savage dumping and final twist
THE Love Island villa will be rocked for the final time tonight as Maya Jama returns for the last - and very brutal dumping. With just one day to go before the final, the islanders are left in shock as Maya enters the villa while they are lounging around. 8 Meg is left gobsmacked as Maya Jama enters the villa 8 Yas expressed her shock when she heard the host entering 8 Harry and Shakira are also caught off guard Credit: Instagram / @loveisland 8 Maya strutted her stuff once again Credit: Instagram / @loveisland She tells them: 'I have some very important news. Can you come and join me on the lawn? 'As you know, last night Megan and Conor were dumped as a result of receiving the least amount of votes for most compatible couple. I'm now going to reveal the two other couples who received the fewest votes and are at risk of being dumped from the island.' But there is more shock to come as Maya dramatically reveals exactly who will be deciding who goes home. As the stars looked on in horror, Maya announces: 'Today, one more couple will be dumped from the Love Island Villa. And that decision will be made by some very familiar faces.' The ex-Islanders make their return as they gather at the fire pit primed to unleash their opinion on the two couples at risk. Maya tells them: 'Welcome back guys. You must now individually decide which couple is the least compatible. The couple with the most votes will be dumped from the island immediately.' One by one the ex-Islanders have their say, leaving the couples at risk less than impressed by their comments. And the decision is made to send one pair packing - meaning they miss out on the chance of winning the £50k in the final. Viewers are convinced they have worked out who will be heading home and took to social media to share their opinions. One person wrote: 'Harry & Shakira.. your time is up!' Love Island fans figure out when villa divide happened as they reveal exact moment the girls turned on each other A second said: 'Got a feeling this lot will have it in for Shakira and Harry. Should be Mug and Mustard…' While a third commented: 'It won't be Dejon and Meg because some vindictive ex islanders like Blu, Lucy, Lauren, Harrison, Tommy et al will not vote them out.' Others expressed their upset at letting the former Islanders make the direction - one person raged: 'Worse ever decision to let a group of biased & bitter (rejected!) people back to vote in the least fair & least objective way - spoils it every time! Please stop it!' 8 The Islanders get ready to face the music Credit: Instagram / @loveisland 8 Maya gathers everyone on the lawn Credit: ITV 8 Former islanders Harrison and Lauren are amonst those returning to the villa Credit: ITV
