Love Island fans in disbelief over Harry's age - and his age gap with Shakira
Some Love Island viewers had no idea how old Harry Cooksley was and the truth surprised them, while his age gap with Shakira was also unexpected according to fans
One Love Island star's age certainly got people talking given his antics on the show.
Many fans said Islander Harry Cooksley "couldn't be" the age given, as he sparked "immature" drama with co-stars Shakira and Helena. From flirting behind backs, to being called a "player" and lying, Harry was called out by viewers and his co-stars.
So when fans realised he was 30 years old, some fans didn't believe it. They suggested he seemed so much younger, as others also warned Shakira away given his "immature" antics, after realising their age gap.
Shakira is 22, making her eight years younger than Harry. But it was Harry's actions, especially the lying after being caught out, that sparked the biggest reaction.
Some fans simply didn't know his age though and on finding out, they shared their shock on social media. One fan said: "Harry's 30?????????"
Another posted: "Harry is 30?! We are doomed," as a thirf wrote: "He can't be 30 my goodness." On his behaviour, one fan commented: "Harry is 30, I repeat 30, imagine moving like that at your big age, these guys aren't real LOOOL."
A further post read: "Not Harry being 30 and acting like this," as another agreed: "Harry you're 30 pls act like it what is this." One fan said: "I forget Harry is 30 sometimes."
As for the age gap, a viewer chimed in: "Big 30 year old man lying to a 22 year old. Crazy. "I've just deeped the age gap with Shakira and Harry," said another," while a final post read: "Harry needs to stay away from Shakira he's 30 and she's 22."
It comes as viewers confessed they think they already know which former Love Island star is set to enter the famous second villa, Casa Amor. Sophie Lee was axed from the show on Tuesday night in a brutal dumping, after her partner Harry was stolen by Shakira.
But some viewers are now convinced her time on the show isn't over. With a recent series seeing a dumped girl return to the villa for Casa Amor, viewers are now speculating Sophie will be back on the show in a matter of weeks, as a bombshell in the second villa.
Taking to X, fans guessed the twist would happen with one fan writing: "I reckon Sophie will re-enter the villa as a bombshell by the end of next week at the latest or she will re-enter in Casa Amor." Another said: "Dw Sophie you'll be back in 4 weeks for Casa Amor."
A third viewer begged: "Nah bring Sophie back for Casa Amor she deserves a chance." A fourth fan agreed: "Bring her back for casa amor!!" as a fifth viewer posted: "Gutted for her and bring back Sophie as a bombshell or Casa Amor."
The comments kept on coming with one reading: "They better bring Sophie back as a Casa bombshell. Justice for Sophie." Another said: "BRING SOPHIE BACK FOR CASA AMOR!"
It comes after Sophie was axed from the show in the latest episode. Despite not initially being at risk of an early exit, the motivational speaker and author was abruptly booted out of the villa after her man Harry was chosen by newly single Shakira.

Revealed: The top 12 TV shows that cause the most rows in Brits' homes
It is a row that is regularly played out in homes across the country – who gets control of the television remote. And it has emerged that the programmes most likely to cause a squabble are Match of the Day and Love Island. In a poll of 2,000 Britons, 17 per cent confessed to arguing over the football highlights show. Love Island was second on 13 per cent. Researchers found that 55 per cent regularly row over which TV show to watch. A total of 48 per cent said they often 'gave in' to their partner, but then went and watched their programme on their phone instead. Gina Allen, 33, of Watford, said: 'When Saturday comes round, I know that he [my boyfriend] will want to watch Match of the Day. 'I enjoy it too, but only if Spurs have won that day, which isn't often the case, so I prefer watching something on Netflix or Disney at that time of night.' She added: 'Now I have my own Saturday night shows that I watch without my boyfriend while he shouts and screams at the telly in the other room.' Saturday is the day when arguments are most likely to kick off, and 25 per cent of those polled confessed to hiding the remote control or taking the batteries out. One in ten also admitted telling their children that the TV 'stops working' at 5pm. A spokesman for Toshiba, which commissioned the survey, said: 'It's no wonder that 58 per cent of respondents say they own a second screen to reduce TV-related arguments.' Lawyer Henry Nelson-Case said: 'In the court of living-room justice, the battle for the remote is the ultimate trial by fire. 'I've seen less drama in actual courtrooms than when someone tries to switch off Match of the Day mid-match.'

A source previously told The Sun: 'This is the fastest sleepover in the Hideaway in Love Island's twelve series history - and what a gorgeous pair to do so.

'It means Helena and Harry could take advantage of the 'no invite needed' and explore their connection. 'The scenes will play out later this week, but bosses are unlikely to show anything too naughty, as is the show's usual approach.' Advertisement

Love Island 'eyeing up' bombshell who once enjoyed night out with Jack Grealish
Love Island bosses are reportedly looking to sign up a Devon model to appear on the ITV2 show as a bombshell this series Love Island has reportedly signed up a model who enjoyed a night out with Jack Grealish to enter the villa as a bombshell this series. Emma Silverton is a model from Devon and was once pictured leaving celebrity-favourite hotspot, Chiltern Firehouse, with Manchester City footballer Jack and his friend Jaydon Gibbs. When Jack, who welcomed his first child with partner Sasha Attwood, was pictured leaving the London venue, he exclaimed that "she's not with me!" and got into his vehicle alone. Model Emma, who is said to have previously been a hostess at the venue, was then spotted sharing a ride with Jaydon. Emma has worked with modelling agencies in New York and Sydney and even collaborated with luxury brands like Burberry and Issey Miyake. In new reports, it has been claimed ITV bosses are hoping to sign her up as a bombshell for the current series of Love Island. A source claimed Emma is "an absolute showstopper" before calling her "lots of fun". Speaking to The Sun, they claimed: "As always, bombshells are picked as the action unfolds to ensure the most tempting Islanders are chosen to suit each storyline." The Mirror have reached out to ITV for comment. Meanwhile, there was a big decision to make for two Islanders on Love Island on Thursday night. A cliffhanger brought an abrupt end to a rather brutal recoupling. There were some surprises and some new couples, before a final blow was dealt for more than one contestant. It was the girls' turn to pick a boy to couple up with, after the arrival of two bombshells. As proceedings got underway, many of the couples switched up with new pairings revealed, and some expected couples not making the cut. After all the girls chose their men, there were still two boys left not in a couple. In a huge twist, it was announced the boys - Blu and Shea - had to come to an agreement with each other on who should leave the villa. Rather awkwardly both men declared they were going nowhere, refusing to sacrifice their place on the show. Blu refused to leave, with Shea agreeing he was going nowhere too. The Islanders watched on awkwardly as both men refused to back down. In true Love Island fashion, the episode was cut short with a classic cliffhanger.
