But the girls weren't entirely thrilled with what they heard.
Each of the lads took it in turns to discuss their relationship.
Connor said he was "enjoying" Toni's company despite not being each other's natural types.
Ben said it was a "long time coming" with Shakira, while Dejon said he "wasn't expecting to find something so rare so quick" with Meg.

Tommy admitted he and Megan were strong - saying she "ticks every single box" and added: "I'm new to the relationship stuff, but I'm putting in the energy."
But Harry was keen to stir up some trouble and asked if any of the lads had any worries.
Harry asked Ben if there was anything he should be concerned about when it comes to Shakira.
"With the Blu situation, her not being honest if she's not feeling it. If it was me and I wasn't feeling the girl. I made it known, I don't feel like Shakira does that, she can give mixed signals," Ben explained.

While Harry said he had concerns when it came to Helena after her threesome confession.
But viewers were quick to claim that the conversation looked like a "set-up" and appeared to be "scripted".
One wrote: "Well this isn't scripted at all is it(!)."
A second said: "Ohh the producers doing something different but still scripted a bit cause if you're told to sit down and discuss the girls you know it's going to be shown back."
A third commented: "This show is becoming more and more scripted. Their mannerisms are not natural."
Another added: "Idk this part seems scripted."
And the surprises didn't stop there, as all of a sudden the boys are greeted by not one, not two, but THREE brand new bombshells.
Emily, Malisha and Yasmin crashed the boys' night and wasted no time in getting to know the group.
Megan spotted the bombshells and shouted 'There's three of them!'
A stunned Meg added: 'You're joking!'
Harry asksed the new bombshells: 'Are you coming back with us?'
Malisha said: 'Of course I am!'
Yasmin added to the boys: 'Tell us what your situation is in the Villa at the moment?'
They fill them in on their current situations and how they're feeling, but as they're blissfully unaware that their every move is being watched, they don't hold back with their answers.

I'm an interiors expert – four hacks to get the Love Island ‘look' in your home

LOVE Island is officially back on our screens, which means we'll all be spending the summer watching contestants compete in their quest to find true love. While the show is ready to turn heads with new twists and more drama, and plenty of coupling up, there's one thing that remains loyal — the iconic look of the Villa. Advertisement 6 Stars stay in the iconic Villa in Sant Llorenç des Cardassar Credit: ITV 6 And experts have revealed how you can recreate the Villa look at home Credit: ITV 6 And it won't cost a fortune to make your space look like a real villa bombshell Credit: ITV 6 There are four easy ways you can incorporate the look Credit: ITV As always, stars in the 2025 series are staying in the swanky Villa in Mallorca, on the east coast of the island in Sant Llorenç des Cardassar. But it had undergone a makeover for the tenth year anniversary to make sure it's bigger than ever with glam touch-ups. This year, there is a new, supersized hideaway, walk-in wardrobes, an exercise bike and a steamy hot tub beside the huge pool. A purple theme has also been added and extended through to the fire pit, while the rooms have been touched up with gold furnishings. Advertisement Even though you might not be able to install a built-in hot tub or pool in your own garden, there are still ways you can 'crack on' and add a touch of Love Island luxury to your home. Interior experts have revealed that there are a few clever design choices that will serve up a vibe that's trendy and timeless . And they are surprisingly easy for anyone who loves the popular ITV show. Paint and interiors expert Lucy Steele from Valspar Paint shared her four tips for helping your space look like a real villa bombshell. Advertisement Most read in Fabulous Exclusive Go bright or go home Lucy has said that an essential tip for nailing the Love Island look at home is by pairing bright whites with pops of bold colour. She explained: "The interior of the Villa uses lots of brilliant whites as an easy backdrop for the bursts of fun colours throughout the space. Love Island fans spot clue islander is pretending to fancy her partner after awkward recoupling "Regularly using bold pinks, blues and butter yellows in the colour scheme of the Villa makes for a fun and playful aesthetic. "If you already have neutral walls at home, you can achieve this by using the iconic colour trio to paint feature walls. Advertisement "Or simply coat doorframes and mirror frames for an instant refresh." Firepit drama No Love Island-inspired garden would be complete without the legendary fire pit. So if you want to recreate the look of the Villa in your own space, then you definitely need to pick up one of these. Advertisement Lucy said: "This is an absolute must for the home, and it's actually fairly cheap to recreate. "In more basic styles, you can get a fire pit for as little as £20 in standard retailers like B&Q. "For a full-on Love Island garden vibe, add string fairy lights, sun loungers, and a splattering of colour-blocked cushions in the same blue , pink and yellow colour scheme. "You may also want to coordinate the colour of your outdoor furniture with natural wood and whites. Advertisement "An easy way to achieve this cohesive look without splashing the cash is by painting your existing garden furniture with exterior paint, helping you stay loyal to the look." 6 The experts say every Love Island fan should have a fire pit in their home Credit: ITV Pop art inspo This is a fairly new one, but pop art goes perfectly with the theme of the Love Island Villa. Lucy advises: "Pop art was introduced to the design of the Villa fairly recently, and it works perfectly with the colour scheme throughout. Advertisement "Pop art prints are relatively low cost, or you could DIY your own to give your space a cheeky, flirtatious edge. "Pop Art is a great way to add the Love Island look to your casa at a low cost. "And it can also be easily changed in the future to new and exciting art pieces." The five colours that are becoming outdated in 2025 IT'S important to make sure that when you update your space, you create a look that won't quickly become outdated. With that in mind, interior designers have revealed the five colours that are beginning to fade now that we are halfway into 2025. Interior pro Paulina Wojas from Emerald Green - "While this colour is still loved for its luxe vibe, its declining popularity could be due to it being oversaturated". Camel - "This could be due to Camel's brown-yellow undertone that may be too warm for a clean aesthetic, and 2025 interior trends favouring more muted, earthy tones such as taupe and olive.' Burgundy - "A prominent trend this year is open, airy spaces with organic elements, which could explain burgundy's declining demand". Scarlet Red - "While its vibrant hue is desirable for maximalist interiors, scarlet red's intensity can become overpowering, resulting in colour fatigue. Teal - "While this aquatic shade is still desirable and perfect for coastal, Greek-inspired interiors, the low number of teal sales could be due to changing preferences and trends shifting towards warmer colour palettes.' I've got a text… it says you need neon! According to the experts, anyone looking to bring the vibe of the Villa into their home needs to bring in touches of neon. Advertisement Lucy explains: "Neon lights are an absolute must-have to achieve the Love Island look at home. "Think playful phrases, a neon heart above your bed, or a cheeky cocktail sign for the garden. "Neon is glam, Insta-ready, and surprisingly affordable.

I'm a plus-sized Love Island fan – the show's latest line up of skinny stars is another GUT PUNCH to us curvy girls

I'VE never been slim. In fact, I've been chubby most of my life. Now in my late twenties, I'm a size 16, which is supposedly the average size of women in the UK. 9 Mollie Quirk, The Sun's senior showbiz reporter, has opened up about body shape representation on Love Island Credit: Mollie Munro Quirk/The Sun 9 Mollie has written about body image and clothing sizes extensively throughout her career Credit: Mollie Munro Quirk/The Sun 9 Love Island 2025 is well under way, and Mollie thinks that the show needs to start promoting different body types Credit: instagram 9 Most women who appear on the show have slender physiques and flat stomachs Credit: Instagram But if this is the average dress size in the United Kingdom, why is this not represented in television programmes we watch? The number one prime example of a television show that has failed to represent normal bodies, and continues to lack in this department, is Love Island. I am a massive Love Island fan, though my passion for it has dwindled over the years - but there has always been one thing about the show that has really irked me. Sure, the Read More about Love Island Each year, the Islanders are unveiled, and each year so many of us mid-size and But when the gorgeous girls are unveiled, our hopes are dashed in one fell swoop. Incredibly glamorous with toned thighs, flat stomachs, perfectly And when the stunningly beautiful young women, usually in their early twenties, are introduced to us, we are further instilled with a beauty ideal that is unattainable for so many. Most read in Love Island Sitting there in my size 16 leopard print pyjamas when watching the hit dating-reality show, with no makeup and a pale complexion as I watch slender, tanned, gorgeous women strut around in skimpy bikinis? Yeah, it can feel like a gut punch. 'WHY DON'T YOU LOSE WEIGHT, THEN?' Some of you are probably thinking "go on a diet then" or "go to the gym" or "why not try Ozempic?" - but this isn't about me, or my health (which is fine, thanks for your concern), or what you think I should do... Watch the awkward Love Island moment that 'proves' two girls are feuding, say fans This is about media representation of body types and how thinness is superior over everything else in the world. Being thin is admired and aspired to, being thin is what women long to be, and with this translated in reality shows, TV and the media - young children are growing up with warped perceptions of their bodies. Children are - and have long been - striving to look like the stars they see when they switch on the telly. So, when different body types aren't represented, they're instantly deemed as "bad" and "unattractive". The 5 Best Body Positive Influencers To Follow @ @ @ @ @ Okay, sure, so that means obesity will lessen if everyone strives to be thin from a young age, right? THE IMPLICATIONS - EXPLORED Wrong. Because this is where I'm not blaming Love Island for promoting a largely unattainable beauty ideal, though, because this started way, way back in cartoons, 90s music videos and noughties chick flicks - but that's for another time. Nor am I saying or demanding that the show signs up obese contestants immediately, but some variation of body type would be nice, right? When women are already battling with themselves over whether or not they should wear a bikini on the beach, Love Island comes along each summer and further instils why they SHOULDN'T wear the bikini - and this needs to stop. 9 She believes different bodies should be represented, but also feels torn Credit: Mollie Munro Quirk/The Sun 9 Mollie's clothes sizes range from a 14 to an 18 Credit: Mollie Munro Quirk/The Sun 9 She is torn over the implications of including different bodies, or keeping them excluded from shows like Love Island Credit: Mollie Munro Quirk/The Sun When tuning into the villa of love, where are the size 12s with wider hips? What about the size 14s with small boobs and thicker thighs? Or how about the size 16s with cellulite and big bums? IS IT REALLY A GOOD IDEA? That all being said, and although I am a huge advocate for different body types going into the villa, do I really think it would be a good idea? Probably not. Even the most beautiful girls who appear on the show can get trolled over their appearance, so imagine what this would be like for heavier or curvier women? Constant yapping about how they're "too fat" or how they're "so unhealthy". Rude messages about their "jiggling bodies" and constant questions over how "anyone" could possibly find them attractive. Trolls are relentless, and with bigger bodies on display, I would fear that the mental health of many would be harmed. But which is worse? Women getting trolled because they're not living up to societal expectations and beauty ideals after years of battling negative body image issues... or young girls growing up trying to reach a largely unattainable beauty ideal that could be detrimental to their mental health and wellbeing? 9 Love Islanders are generally slim and toned Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 9 The women who star on the hit show rarely have lumps, bumps or cellulite Credit: Shutterstock Editorial
