Hey everyone!
Love Island 2021 has most certainly begun as we have seen the first 11 Islanders that have entered the villa in order to try and find love this summer. Over the next 6 weeks, I will be summarising the 'best bits' of each episode along with some of my own opinions about what's happened so far!
Monday 28th June
Tonight was the first night of Love Island and we were introduced to the girls first, before the lads entered the villa one at a time to see if they were what the girls were looking for! Kaz and Liberty were the first girls to enter the villa, and after 'successfully' opening up the bottle of alcohol that was waiting for them, they were welcomed by the third and fourth girls, Faye and Sharon! Shannon was the final girl to enter, and they all just seemed to discuss their types, what they like and don't like in a guy, and after one of the girls warned Shannon not to spill the drink, she said 'Don't worry, I'm Scottish'; hinting at the fact that the Scottish like their drink!
Jake was the first guy who entered the villa in his incredibly short red shorts and Liberty was the only girl who stepped forward for him, so he decided to couple up with her. After Aaron entered the villa, both Kaz and Faye liked the look of him, but Aaron has his eyes on Shannon. Nobody stepped forward for Hugo, so he chose Faye. The fourth single lad and professional footballer Toby decided to steal Faye off of Hugo, meaning that he had to go and sit in the substitutes bench! The final guy, Brad, also seemed to like the look of Faye, and Faye was the most re-coupled contestant on the first episode of the show. Hugo and Toby had two girls left to choose, and as Hugo entered first, he chose Sharon, leaving Toby with Kaz!
First pairings:
Jake & Liberty, Aaron & Shannon, Brad & Faye, Hugo & Sharon, Toby & Kaz
Throughout the rest of the episode, we see all of the couples starting to get to know one another with Jake & Liberty unable to get a word in between eachother speaking, Hugo & Sharon not really having that initial spark, with Sharon labelling him as 'too nice' and Toby & Kaz who seemed to explore the entire villa and ended up on the roof top for their first private chat.
The first challenge that they all competed in was a variety of weird and sensual challenges that they had to choose out of a hat. We saw Jake give Liberty a sexy dance, Sharon had to suck Hugo's ear for 30 seconds, and Toby was put in the deep end after he had to suck Kaz's toes for 30 seconds...and foot fetish Jake even got it on camera because he probably wanted to watch it back once everyone had gone to sleep!
Tuesday 29th June
During the second day of Love Island we saw new Islander Chloe entering the outside dating area in the villa and she invited all of the guys to come and meet her, and it was upto them who they were going to send to meet her. Toby and the boys were in agreement that they should all go together and welcome her to the villa altogether!
On the first night in the villa, there didn't seem to be any kissing or cuddling, but in the morning, the girls were eager to start working out which gave new girl Chloe time to speak to each of the boys individually; starting with Jake! He admitted that he liked Liberty but also found Chloe really attractive, admitting that blonde girls are his type. Liberty made a comment that there was a good view on one side of her (where the boys were working out) and a bad view on the other side (where Jake and Chloe were having a private chat with eachother. Aaron explained to Chloe that he wanted to create a skincare brand and Brad revealed that he's not necessarily nervous, but he's just a chilled guy and isn't into the fake/falsed labels such as 'Babe' or 'Hun'.
The Islanders were involved in their first game called 'Horny Devils' where lots of saucy secrets were revealed about each of the islanders; including the girls secrets' which included sending pictures of her breasts at the beginning of a romantic conversation and another girl who had been involved with threesomes on three different occassions. Aaron & Sharon managed to share multiple kisses throughout the challenge, with Sharon admitting he is a good kisser, but as Toby went in to try and kiss Shannon, she avoided him before apologising...Bit awkward! Some of the secrets of the guys included being walked in on having sex, being involved in sexual activity nin the middle of a road, and managing to snog 10 different girls in 1 night.
Shannon, Liberty and Faye all had a little girly chat, discussing the challenge that has happened and also whether or not they think they are compatible with their current pairings. Shannon and Faye seemed to not be too interested, whereas Liberty had said that she's nervous about the coupling as Chloe could steal her man! Kaz and Chloe had a private chat, and she admitted that she doesn't want to play it safe. She had 24 hours to make a decision, and it was time for her to choose who to couple up with...but the episode ended on a cliffhanger and we don't find out until Wednesday!
Wednesday 30th June
During the third episode of the show we found out that Chloe decided to couple up with Aaron, meaning that Shannon was left without a man...and she received a text saying that she had been dumped from the island with some of the Islanders stating #LetTheGamesBegin. Jake & Liberty spoke about whether they would upgrade from toe touching to spooning, discussing which of them would be the big and small spoon. Hugo pulled Sharon for a serious chat and they both explained to eachother that there doesn't seem to be any compatibility there, and Sharon thought that Hugo was avoiding her in the villa, which he denied and they managed to resolve their little issue. Jake & Liberty spoke about their perfect dates and explained that their dream dates were on a boat...Liberty's was on a dingy and Jake was thinking a large yacht!
Sharon and Faye began speaking about Brad, and whether there is any kind of connection between Faye & Brad. Liberty and Chloe were discussing Jake, with Liberty admitting she was nervous to kiss him. Toby & Kaz received a message that they would be going on their first proper date in the villa which was a really romantic outside picnic. They agreed that they had 'matching energy' and Toby stated that this was his first proper date with a girl so he didn't want to rush into his first relationship with a girl, although he had nothing negative to say about Kaz so far!
The Islanders then played a game of Beer Pong which revealed a lot of secrets and revelations; including the fact that Jake & Liberty were quite experienced when it came to trying out different sex moves in-front of the others, and Brad liked Chloe the most and Faye the least, and had to kiss them both one after the other...Chloe got a snog and Faye didn't really get a kiss. Brad & Faye then had a private chat and she said that it's fine if she's not his type, but to 'not make me feel like a d*ck'. She added that his looks are 'ok' but his personality stinks, and it was left quite sour between the two of them. At the end of the episode, we found out that new boys Chuggs and Liam would be entering the villa...so let's see who couples up with who next!
Thursday 1st July
At the beginning of this episode, Faye and Chloe had a little discussion about Brad after the heated conversation between Brad & Faye following the beer pong challenge in the previous episode. After Aaron's first pairing with Shannon, and second with Chloe, Aaron decided to have a private chat with Sharon as she was the girl he wanted to get to know next...and they ended up kissing on the Love Island terrace, leaving Aaron with a very bright face. He spoke to Toby & Kaz about the encounter and they were all really happy and excited for him, especially if she was the girl that he wanted to get to know more.
Jake & Liberty also seemed to be a lot closer, speaking about who would be spooning who and speaking about their time getting to know eachother in the villa so far. The following morning, it was Toby to serve up the drinks orders for the girls and having to remember to specific variations; including sugars, milk/no milk and types of drinks! Brad started getting to know Chloe, and Hugo started speaking to Faye. During Brad & Chloe's conversation, he seemed to be talking about himself, his group of 'lads' and football, not asking Chloe any questions about her life, interests or anything to get the topic of conversation away from himself. Jake and Hugo had a brief chat about Liberty where Jake admitted, she's lovely, but she doesn't make him 'want to rip her clothes off', and Hugo & Faye continued their conversation from earlier on in the programme, chatting down by the swimming pool before the evening began!
Sharon received a text that she was going on a date with new Islander Chuggs, and Faye was sent on a date with Liam. Chuggs explained that his name simply means 'cuddles and hugs' and that he went to University in Westminster. Both of them seem quite well spoken so I think they'll get on pretty well! Faye explained to Liam that she's not really the 'party time' but she enjoys a night out. Sharon went onto explain that looks are important, but the initial attraction to somebody is purely whether they will get on, if they can share banter and whether they have similar hobbies to bond over. She went on to explain that her and Hugo are coupled up, but they're 'good friends' and after Liam revelation to Faye that he is only 21 years of age, and that she'd only just turned 26, she said that she's been in 'cougar ville' before and she really enjoyed it, and she'd happily get into Liam's bed, if she was able to get out of Brad's!
Friday 2nd July
The first week of Love Island 2021 is over, can you believe it? We've already had a dumping, the arrival of 2 new Islanders and a recoupling! At the beginning of this final episode of the week, it started with a shot of Sharon saying 'a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do' which referenced the decision she would have to make during the recoupling. She's currently coupled with Hugo, but has already snogged Aaron and most recently went on a date with new boy Chuggs. Chuggs and Hugo recognised eachother from University, describing it as a 'small world' that they both ended up on the show together, and after Chuggs admitted to the boys that he really liked Sharon, Aaron explained that he had a thing for her too, so maybe there's a bit of competition there! Liam explained that he liked girls with brown hair, tanned skin and similarly to Jake, he also likes feet!
Hugo & Faye sat down for a little discussion, with both of them realising that they had only spoken to eachother for a day, and Faye explained that Liam is really fit, but she also wanted to get to know Hugo a little bit better. Aaron & Sharon had a brief chat where Sharon explained she wanted too have 'common ground' in the conversations she has with a guy, adding that there are no wedding bells ringing as of yet. Sharon explained to some of the girls that she fancied Aaron a lot more than Chuggs at the moment, and as the new boys, they began grafting with some of the other girls in the villa.
Chuggs pulled Kaz for a chat and explained that it's important for the person he is dating to have a nice smile, and Kaz explained that at the moment she is focused on getting to know Toby a little more. During his chat with Liberty, she explained that she was currently happy with Jake and Chuggs said that she was his perfect type...so if Jake & Liberty go their separate ways, will Chuggs recouple with Liberty? Liam & Faye had a brief chat, followed by Aaron and Hugo. Liam thought it would also be a good idea to go and speak with Chloe so that he was able to keep his options open if things didn't work out with Faye. Both of them explained to eachother that they liked the other one's confidence and they seemed to get on pretty well. It was then Chuggs's turn to pull Chloe for a date and she explained that she'd written off a few cars but she's still a good driver - I would say get some advice from Olivia Rodrigo who wrote a song about getting her driving license, so maybe she has a few techniques to avoid Chloe damaging any future cars!
Brad and Liam sat down for a quick chat before the recoupling and Brad thought that Faye would pick Liam, with Liam unsure as to where her head was at. Hugo also pulled Faye for a chat who was also undecided, and she explained to Hugo that she hoped both of them would stay in the villa so she could get to know them both better. Chloe and Faye also had a chat before everyone got ready for the first recoupling of the series, and I think Faye was hinting at Chloe to save Hugo, but then explained that Chloe should just pick whoever she thinks is the right boy for her at this current point in the show.
Second pairings:
Kaz & Toby, Sharon & Aaron, Liberty & Jake, Faye & Liam, Chloe & Hugo - which means that Brad and Chuggs were both single...
Never be afraid, *new* Islander Rachel would soon be entering the villa, and in 24 hours she would decide which of the two remaining boys to couple up with, sending the other one home!
