Revealed: Love Island's Harry's friend Harry shares the juicy conversations that weren't aired in Villa visit
During last night's episode of Love Island, Harry's mum Julia and best friend Harry entered the Villa for family visit day alongside Shakira's mum and sister. It was a visit full of awkward moments including Shakira's mum refusing to give Harry a hug and insisting he had a lot of work to do to prove himself to her daughter.
The reunion also showed Harry's best friend Harry Hugo speaking to Harry's ex Helena, whom he had been coupled with just days before, and had since dumped in order to pursue things with Shakira once again.
Harry Hugo approached Helena and told her what a great fit she would be to their frienship group on the outside.
"We've got a group of like 16 of us and were like 'oh Helena would fit in so well."
However, Harry has since come out and revealed there was more to that conversation that didn't air, and clarified he didn't mean that Helena was a better fit than Shakira.
Writing on X, Harry said: "I said to Helena that it would never have worked romantically with her and Harry, they were just great mates on a holiday romance but their banter is the same and that's why she'd fit in to our wider friendship group (of 8 couples) / it 100% wasn't me telling her that she's a better fit than Shakira. I said the opposite to her face."
He then went onto reveal more secrets from his time on the show, sharing that himself and Julia did call Harry out on his behaviour and for being "inconsiderate of others feelings with his actions."
Harry also revealed the lighter moments he had with Shakira's family, including that they all agreed for Harry to get rid of his Speedos.
He ended his recap of the visit, by sharing himself and Julia agreed with "Shakira's family that Harry has a lot of work to do both now and on the outside to prove the doubters wrong." He also added Harry and Shakira are "really into each other and I can't wait to see how he tries to make amends."
Us too Harry.
In another tweet which assumed he thought Harry was better matched to Helena than Shakira, he added, "This couldn't be further from the truth and I said it to Helena's face in this chat she took it great and totally understood but I massively sympathised with her situation. The only undeniable thing about it is she's been treated badly and I told her that. As I did to Harry. His flip-flopping has caused all this.
"Harry is very into Shakira and both Julia and I loved meeting her and came away incredibly happy seeing both of them much happier than they've been over the last week or so."
Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX

When was Perfect Match season three filmed? Intro-ing the couple who are already expecting!
Perfect Match may well be the final boss of reality tv dating shows. The Netflix show brings together alumni from other dating shows (primarily those that have shown on Netflix such as Love Is Blind, Too Hot To Handle, and Temptation Island, but, this season, familiar faces from the likes of Love Island and The Batchelor) Now, season three has been dropped on our screens and, well, we have questions! Specifically, a duo who met on this very season of Perfect Match are not only a confirmed couple but engaged a baby. Yep, sorry for the spoilers, but Ollie (of Love Is Blind UK) and AD (of Love Is Blind) are very certainly together. They were spotted hanging out and being loved up last summer (as 2024) and announced their engagement in a Love Is Blind reunion episode in March 2025. Back in May, they also announced that they are expecting a baby (too cute!). So, with all that in mind, it's clear that a major chunk of time has passed between Perfect Match season three being filmed, and its eventual release this week. The news that Perfect Match was renewed for a third season was announced on June 27, 2024, a week after the second season wrapped. It seems that the show began filming shortly after, which suggests that Ollie and AD have been loved up for around a year. We don't know if these two will be the winning couple for Perfect Match season three, but they definitely prove that love is real! Currently, the first six episodes of the season are available to watch on Netflix and three more will be made available on 8th August and the show will conclude on 15th August. So excited to see how this pans out...

Huda Mustafa Makes Red Carpet Debut With Brand New Boo
Huda Mustafa Makes Red Carpet Debut With Brand New Boo originally appeared on Parade. Fresh off of her stint on Love Island: USA season 7, it looks like fan favorite islander Huda Mustafa has already found love outside the villa, this time with a different reality television personality. For those who haven't been keeping up, almost immediately after returning to the United States from Fiji, Huda has been romantically linked to Too Hot To Handle season 5 star Louis Russell. The pair was spotted holding hands and shopping together at The Grove in Los Angeles — just days after Huda's Love Island: USA journey came to a close — in addition to numerous other lovey-dovey encounters. Now, the duo seems to have publicly confirmed their relationship, attending last night's Weapons world premiere as a couple, posing for photos on the red carpet while holding hands yet again. Taking place yesterday (July 31) at The United Theater on Broadway in Los Angeles, stars like Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, Sara Paxton and more were in attendance at the Weapons world premiere, but with sleek-as-can-be coordinated outfits, it's safe to say Huda and Louis stole the show. On the red carpet, Huda stepped out in a black lace maxi dress, complete with corseting and boning down the bodice to add a bit of edge. Accompanying the gorgeous gown, the 24-year-old opted for bronzy, głowy makeup and mermaid-esque waves in her hair, creating an overall look that's as stunning as can be. As for Louis, he opted for an all-black ensemble as well — matching his partner in crime — pairing his black suit with silver jewelry, as well as some sexy black sunglasses atop his head. "I love it when two pretty people date," a fan commented on the pair's red carpet debut, and we seriously could not agree more! For all the updates regarding Huda and Louis' blossoming relationship, you can connect with both parties on Instagram for any further updates: @hudabubbaaa and @louis_russell. Additionally, you may stream the entirety of Love Island: USA season 7 — as well as previous seasons of the beloved reality television series — now via Peacock.

‘Perfect Match' Season 3: Which Couples Are Still Together?
One of the most chaotic reality dating shows is back! The first six episodes of Perfect Match season three have just dropped on Netflix and it's just as messy, hilarious and full of heartbreak as the previous two seasons. But which couples are still together? The Netflix reality show brings together a bunch of singles from a variety of different reality shows. Usually it's just Netflix originals, but this year they've invited cast members from Love Island, The Bachelor, and other shows too. In each episode the cast must chose who to match up with and the following day they compete in a challenge. The winning couple from the challenge then gets to head to the boardroom where they can send themselves or their fellow cast members on dates with newbies. And then when everyone is back in the villa after various dates they must then choose who to match up with that evening. It leads to a lot of couple swapping and the dumping of many contestants. However, throughout the show there's been some strong couples, and right now as of the first six episodes airing there's five couples. So who is in a couple right now? And which matches are still together IRL? Here's what you need to know. Relationship status: Still together Ok so technically at the end of episode six Olly is in a match with Justine, however, we already know that Olly and AD are now engaged and expecting a baby together. The pair shocked the reality TV world, when back in March earlier this year the couple announced they were engaged, as we had no idea at the time they were even dating. However, it was shortly announced later that they appeared on Perfect Match together. At the start of the series they instantly connected and were all over each other. However, after building a strong connection, the beginning of episode six shocked viewers when Nick Lachey turned up. He revealed Daniel and Lucy had been given the task of who to send home and it was decided that AD and Freddie should leave. AD and Olly both seemed extremely upset by the decision, but it lead to Olly going on a date with two women—Justine and Olivia. He ended up rematching with Justine. However, given we know he and AD are now engaged and expecting a baby, we reckon she'll return to the house at some point. Relationship status: Still together (we think) Lucy and Daniel have been together from day one. However, it hasn't always been smooth sailing. They've had some high highs, including a very spicy bondage date, but they've also had some low lows. At one point during the season Daniel called Lucy 'embarrassing' which naturally caused her to get upset and doubt their connection. Despite this however, the pair chose to match again at the end of episode six with Daniel apologizing. Lucy acknowledged that while it was a painful moment she didn't want to throw their connection away after one argument. Relationship status: Still together (we think) Who would have thought Too Hot To Handle's Louis would be in one couple for the whole show? As of the end of episode six he's been with The Ultimatum's Sandy for their entire time in the house. They matched on day one and have continued building a strong connection. There's been some bumps in the road, including one of Louis' other interests Alex saying she would be up for a threesome, which Sandy was not down for. And in episode six the pair had one of their most dramatic moments when Louis called Sandy out for getting to know one of the other guys. They ended the episode matching but not on great terms. Louis then apologized to Sandy when they were in bed together and so now they seem to be on a better track. Relationship status: Still together (we think) Would it be a dating show without Love Island's Scott? No of course not. The Islander entered the house after being chosen for Rachel to go on a date with. It's still pretty early days for these two but they seem to have a good connection and chemistry, and neither seem interested in getting to know anyone else. Could we see Scott end a show in a couple? Relationship status: Still together (we think) Madison and Jalen are the newest couple to make a match. They got together after Madison's previous match Freddie was chosen to leave the house after Lucy and Daniel had to send someone on a date and that meant their current match had to leave. Madison was devastated when Freddie left but has been getting on pretty well with Jalen so far, so maybe he is a better match for her? Perfect Match is available on Netflix right now.
