Love Island fans baffled as Islanders 'break biggest villa rule' with zero consequences

Daily Mirror3 days ago
Love Island fans were left shocked during tonight's episode as Blu and Megan discussed what had been going on in the outside world - something which is usually banned on the show
Things got personal in last night's Love Island as the Couple Goals challenge allowed the Islanders to air all their dirty laundry. Tonight things escalated as the Islanders discussed the outside world - which is usually strictly against the rules.

As we know, Megan and Blu re-joined the villa after being booted out weeks ago, and during tonight's episode Blu spilled all on the outside world, despite Islanders usually having to be shut off from the outside world.

'You know how much I love Megan but I just feel like the first time Megan came in compared to this time is completely different," Dejon told Blu and Harry, as he continued to drop some home truths.

During her first stint in the villa, Megan formed a connection with Tommy before dumping him for Conor. Blu then revealed that Megan was left "fuming" after seeing Lucy and Tommy in tape. Conor then confronted Megan about the ongoings, as she admitted they shared a few flirty texts.
However, fans were left baffled that the Islanders had been allowed to speak about the outside world, as one penned: "are they allowed to talk about the outside world like this? Blu is working overtime to get that screentime!"

A second wrote: "Why would they allow Blu to reveal how the public feels?? It goes against the whole point of contestants not allowed contact with the outside world."
"So the producer are just gonna allow Bly to talk about what happening on the outside??!??????!! Hmmh kinda beat the point of the concept on show having no contact with the outside world….but does kinda cause drama but still."
Elsewhere, the Islanders had their biggest fallout yet. Last night, the Islanders were asked which couple they thought were the most fake, and the answers caused a stir. Meg and Dejon chose Harry and Shakira, as Meg announced: 'I feel like Shakira, you've made some very hurtful comments to me that we're not very nice and I've always been there for you.'

Tonight, the arguments continued, as the Islanders were asked: "Which couple are you most scared to give your honest opinion on?"
Shakira and Harry choose Meg and Dejon, as Meg told to Shakira, '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.'

However, Shakira wasn't having any of it, as she 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.'
The argument continued to escalate as Meg told Shakira she wouldn't be her friend on the outside. 'I will never speak to you on the outside. I honestly can't stand you sometimes," Shakira responded.
Will the girls make up?

Future of ITV's Love Island in doubt following thousands of complaints that female contestants are regularly 'slut-shamed and manipulated'

Two reality TV hopefuls' lives will change forever tomorrow when the public crown their £50,000 Love Island winners – with far more riches likely to be waiting for them back in the UK. But the future of ITV 's flagship dating show may not be so rosy. The Mail on Sunday can reveal the broadcaster will be reviewing it later this month, with insiders forecasting the winter series and All Stars are facing 'the chop'. Love Island viewers this season have been rocked by the 'abusive' behaviour of the contestants towards one another, leading to 9,000 Ofcom complaints in a week and prompting the TV watchdog to begin an investigation. The charity Women's Aid even waded in by issuing a statement criticising the show as a place where 'women are often lied to, slut-shamed and manipulated'. One insider said: 'ITV is stuck between a rock and a hard place because this sort of behaviour is generating incredible viewing figures, with this series being the most watched since summer 2022 – it's averaging 2.4million viewers. 'ITV also can't be seen to be promoting the values some of these contestants are displaying – it's all getting a bit too much.' Another issue raised by the insider was 'over saturation', with viewing figures dropping since the launch of the winter series in 2020 and the All Stars last year. At its peak in 2019, it attracted 6million viewers a night, falling by a million a year later. And after the All Stars series was introduced in 2024, figures plummeted to an all-time low of 1million for the launch of this series. The insider added: 'The plan is to follow the US formula of one show a year with more vetting of contestants, higher quality and more control, which will mean the winter series and All Stars get the chop.' The majority of complaints were about the 'bullying' of Shakira Khan, 22, with one viewer saying: 'This isn't entertainment, it's emotional neglect.' Jessye Werner, of Women's Aid, said 'more must be done to educate contestants on sexism and misogyny'. And she praised viewers 'who call out these behaviours'.

'I think the after-care will be ramped up a little bit this year just because so much has happened.'
