'I adore him and I really wish I didn't, that's the problem. It would be easier if I hated him, but I don't," she tells her mum and sister. Her mum Sukina replies: 'What I will say, with him, he can prove himself to you before he has to prove himself to me.' Love Island fans also watched as Harry walked over to the Firepit ready to say hello and Shakira's mum refused to stand up. 'We're not hugging Harry,' Sukina tells him definitively. But it appears she's warmed to him since leaving the villa, as she shared her experience in a TikTok video. Shakira's mum Sukina said: 'It's becoming apparent that there are genuine feelings there. 'I do think that Harry is a different person with Shakira, always. It's not that he gets boring or quietens down - because I'm pretty sure they have a laugh together. 'But he does bring out a deeper and more intense side of him. I do empathise with Helena. You didn't see it but I did speak to Helena and I did express that I hope she's ok. Love Island fans grossed out by Harry's bizarre fetish as he's pied by Shakira 'We'll just see, let's watch this space.' Sukina also defended her decision not to hug Harry when meeting him. During her time on the show, she slammed Harry for the way he ended things with Helena: 'I think the whole of the UK is [surprised]. I'm sorry, but we thought it was 'undeniable' Harry.' The Meet the Family segment sees Islanders reunited with their family members and friends inside the villa, and has long been a staple of the series. It often delivers emotional reunions and candid chats, with some families raising concerns or giving their blessing to the couples ahead of the show's conclusion. 5 Sukina defended her decision not to hug Harry when meeting him
