Love Island fans declare they have found the winners after uncomfortable family and friends episode: 'Give them the money now!'
Love Island fans have declared they have found the winners after a very uncomfortable family and friends episode. As the final week kicked off, the Islanders were treated to visits from their loved ones, but the reunions were more frosty than not. Cacherel Mercer's siblings' had an ice cold meeting with Toni Laites before Megan Moore's family grilled her boyfriend Dejon Noel Williams, branding him a 'player'. Things only got more awkward when Shakira Khan's mum gave Harry Cooksley the cold shoulder, refusing to hug him and demanding he prove himself. But there was a glimmer of hope, in the form of Yasmin Pettet and Jamie Rhodes. The pair, who met during Casa Amor and have been loved-up ever since, have been named by fans as this year's winners after their families' sweet interactions. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they wrote: 'Yas and jamie to win tbh. this family meeting has solidified it for me,'; 'Yas and Jamie are my winners idc,'; 'Give Yas & Jamie that money pleaseeeeee! Pleaseeeeee,'; 'Well that has sealed it for me Yas and Jamie for the win,'; 'Think I have picked my winners now, got to be Jamie and Yas,'; 'My only wins after today is Yas + Jamie. I love Shakira + Toni but their family meet ups just set a tone on their relationships. The others arent even an option,'; 'Well the families opinion reflect the publics this year truly, every couple is a shambles and should not be together except yas and jamie,'; 'If Yas and Jamie don't win that 50k the UK public needs a good head wobble,'; 'So we all agree that Yas and Jamie are winning, right?!' It came after viewers slammed the parents episode for being uncomfortable, as they said: 'No all these parents hate their children's partners,'; 'Meet the family episodes always use to make me cry, this one just made me uncomfortable, quite like this season as a whole,'; Taking to X, formerly Twitter, fans wrote: 'Yas and jamie to win tbh. this family meeting has solidified it for me' 'This has been the most awkward episode of LI I have ever watched. Lol, I'm uncomfortable.' The Islanders' friends and relatives piled into the villa to give their live reactions - as well as some 'needed' candid feedback during the instalment. But viewers were left cringing at one awkward exchange when Cach's siblings, his brother D'Shae and sister Ayjah, entered the house. Fans at home claimed it was 'obvious' the duo didn't like his partner Toni after a series of stern looks were thrown her way. A previous episode saw the couple part ways when Toni decided to recouple with her ex Harrison again, leaving her man Cach in tears as he was forced to partner with Emma - they eventually got back together. But it seems Cach's siblings have not forgiven Toni for the drama, with fans sharing their thoughts on X. During the episode Toni was sitting on the terrace, when suddenly she heard her mum Leslie shout: 'Is Toni here? Where's Toni?' Realising friends and family have come to visit the Villa, she raced down stairs to greet her mum who had flown in from Florida. Her best friend Marielle also made the trip and she joked of being in the Villa: 'It's like meeting our Sims in real life!' As they caught up, talk turned to her daughter's romantic relationships in the Villa, Leslie said: 'The Harrison thing - I'd love to know what voodoo spell he put on you.' 'Sometimes you have to get burned 150 times before you can't get burnt anymore,' Toni replied. Leslie added of Cach: 'You have the most amazing man. His morals, his ethics, his calm demeanour when he is confronted with a bad situation… he is my king.' Meanwhile, Cach caught up with his brother D'Shae and sister Ayjah as they discussed him being upset by Toni and Harrison's actions. Cach admitted: 'You don't understand how embarrassing it was.' His sister said: 'Everyone felt it. It hurt to see you cry,' while his brother D'Shae added: 'I had to look away.'

Love Island star rushed to hospital from villa after nasty accident
LOVE Island star Jamie Rhodes was rushed to hospital in Majorca after suffering a painful accident in the villa. Filming was plunged into chaos after the Casa Amor bombshell, who is coupled up with Yasmin Pettet, was whisked to A&E on the Spanish island. 5 5 Love Island bosses feared the 26-year-old handy man from Barking would be spotted outside the villa after the dramatic moment. A source told The Sun: 'Jamie was taken to hospital after an accident in the villa. 'He stepped on a screw in the garden and after chatting to the villa medics they made the decision to take him to hospital. 'Filming was briefly paused and everyone was really worried as it's quite rare anyone gets taken out of the villa. 'But after the garden was searched for any more loose screws Jamie returned all bandaged up. 'He was fine to walk - bosses were worried he'd be seen out of the villa and exposed to the outside world but it was actually fine.' The electrical engineer has since returned to filming and will be seen parting in the show's first ever Love Island Festival on the ITV2 show tonight. When entering the Casa Amor villa, Jamie only had eyes for villa favourite Yasmin. They hit it off, and are now one of the favourites to win the show, according to the bookies. Fellow bombshell Yasmin, from London, entered the show in episode five and quickly won a legion of fans for standing up to the boys for playing them at their own game. She became known as YasGPT thanks to her calm but direct attitude and perfect posture. It is heavily speculated that the official Love Island live final will be on Monday August 4, which means fans have around three weeks until the series reaches its climax. But Maya Jama is returning to the villa tonight and not everyone will be pleased to see her, as she will be telling the cast that THREE people are being dumped. Viewers will watch as she tells the Islanders the public have been voting for their favourite couple - which will mean a pair will go home. However, there is a twist as a third person will also be axed which leaves the villa horrified and in tears. The Sun revealed earlier today that the trio includes a girl who has been involved in a lot of villa drama. A source said: 'Love Island fans know a dumping usually follows a favourite couple vote and it often happens during format points like themed parties - so there's no surprise in that. 'But the fact a third islander got the boot is a real shock twist and it left the cast horrified and in tears. 'They thought the cull was over after a couple were shown the door. 'The trio includes a girl who has been a big part of this year's most dramatic moments.' 5 5
