Love Island 2025 LIVE: Two bombshells arrive in villa as fans fear Alima will be booted out TONIGHT
RIGHT. Listen up, Love Island fanatics!
Hold onto your sun hats, because two ridiculously fit new lads are about to strut into the villa, and things are about to get even hotter.
We're talking semi-pro footballer Shea Mannings and fitness influencer Remell Mullins – get ready to swoon. These bombshells will be gracing our screens in the next few days, so prepare for some serious drama.
But it's not all sunshine and cocktails, is it? Fans are getting a bit twitchy about Alima's future on the show.
Word on the street – or should we say, on X – is that her partner Blu Chegini might be tempted to make a play for Shakira Khan, leaving Alima vulnerable. Could she be the first one packing her bags?
One fan tweeted: "Alima might be in danger, there's actually no one in here for her.. The system has failed her.'
Another viewer chimed in: 'Sneaky feeling Alima might be the girl that's been dumped,' while a third despairingly posted: 'Producers are actually going to hell if Alima gets dumped, Blu is going for Shakira and that will mean Alima is vulnerable and dumped, producers never get anything right.'
Ouch.
Make sure you're glued to your telly tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX for all the tears, tantrums, and traumas, as Maya Jama brings the heat.

Watch: 'Too glamorous for a 9-5'
One of the new contestants has already managed to annoy viewers.
Shakira Khan, 22, entered the Love Island villa first alongside Meg Moore, 25, and the pair wasted no time getting to know each other.
Shakira set about telling Megan that she was 'too glamorous for a 9-5' and must do something more exciting for a job.
One fan wrote: "Watching shakira slag off 9-5 jobs as if she isn't an entertainer."
Another posted: "Why does shakira have so much beef with 9-5ers"

Not a match
It quickly became apparent to Love Island fans that one couple were definitely not a match last night.
Meg and Dejon have been coupled up but they really didn't seem to be vibing with each other.
On first impressions, it seemed that Dejon was NOT Meg's type on paper and visa versa.
This wasn't helped by Meg saying she felt '50/50' about the personal trainer…
But of course, by the time Maya Jama entered the villa again at the end of last night's show, they were all smiles and insisting they are the next Romeo and Juliet.

EXCLUSIVE Inside JoJo Siwa's 'calculated' relationship with Love Island's Chris Hughes
JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes 's relationship rollout has been branded 'calculated' by a celebrity publicist, as speculation continues to grow over whether the pair are in a genuine romance. The couple developed feelings for each other during a stint in the Celebrity Big Brother UK house in April but played coy over their relationship status in the weeks that followed – despite numerous cosy public outings. After igniting much suspicion, JoJo, 22, finally confirmed last week that she and Chris, also 22, are officially an item and that she's started calling him her boyfriend. But while JoJo and Chris seem every inch the doting couple, there are many who are unconvinced by their relationship. Sarah Schmidt is a celebrity publicist and president of PR firm, Interdependence and she believes that doubt over their partnership is due to the 'breadcrumbs' that JoJo and Chris's fans have been fed over the course of their journey together. Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail, she said: 'JoJo's relationship with Chris is either a brilliant PR strategy, or a real relationship being handled with PR care. 'Either way, it's a timely reset for her brand. JoJo has been publicly evolving, shedding the bows, embracing her queerness and redefining her artistry. 'Even if it started as genuine chemistry, the way it's been rolled out with breadcrumbs on social, teased in interviews, and confirmed only when the speculation peaked, it feels calculated. 'That's not a bad thing. It's smart. Because JoJo's not just selling a relationship, she's selling her reinvention.' has reached out to reps for comment. JoJo and Chris finally confirmed that they were dating last week following weeks of frenzied speculation. In an interview with Capital Radio, JoJo said: 'I'm sure it's no secret to people, I am in a lovely relationship with a sweet boy named Christopher Hughes.' She also gushed about her blossoming romance with Chris in an interview with The Guardian when asked whether things between them were still platonic. 'It's not platonic anymore, and it's been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I'm absolutely head over heels for him and he's the same way,' she told them. For many, JoJo and Chris's partnership is unexpected, which again has aroused suspicion. When JoJo entered the ITV reality show, she was in a relationship with her now ex-partner Kath Ebb. She later dumped them at the wrap party just hours after the finale episode aired. JoJo's ex Kath was one of the first to accuse JoJo of a publicity stunt. Speaking to Betches about their breakup, Kath mused: 'I feel a bit like I've been this pawn that's been moved around in this story by Big Brother, by JoJo, by her PR team, by the tabloids. 'And I feel really beaten around by that because it's just not something I asked for. And I think at the end of the day, the boring headline is: I'm just heartbroken, and I've just gone through a really messy breakup that I didn't see coming, and I'm in shock, and I'm picking up the pieces of my love life and of my life in that.' Since then, JoJo has been spending time with 'soulmate' Chris in both the US and UK, having recently met his family. 'In today's celebrity ecosystem, visibility is survival, and few things hijack a narrative faster than an unexpected love interest — especially one that crosses markets, continents, and fan bases,' celebrity publicist Sarah added. She also said that both parties stand to gain from the romance. 'Chris gains international relevance, and JoJo reclaims control of her story,' she added. Earlier this week, it was reported that JoJo has been dropped by her record label, Columbia Records. JoJo had been signed to the record company in 2024, and she released her single Karma and EP Guilty Pleasure with the label. But less than a year later, the US reality star is no longer working with Columbia Records and released her latest song Bulletproof independently. The timing of the JoJo's contract with the label coming to an end mixed in with her already dubious relationship with Chris has added to the uncertainty. 'The public's suspicion isn't about homophobia or age gaps. It's about the timing,' Sarah noted. 'In entertainment, timing is everything. If you're dropped by your label and suddenly fall in love with a handsome British reality star, people are going to talk.

Helen Flanagan strips off to her underwear as she admits she's lacking confidence over cellulite and untoned body
HELEN Flanagan has stripped off to her underwear while admitting she's lacking confidence over 'cellulite' and 'untoned body.' The star posted a video of herself getting ready to go out to the theatre, and stripped out of her pyjamas to her underwear. 5 5 5 She captioned her clip: 'Happy Friday Girls 🙋🏼♀️💖 loving this weather 😍 GRWM.' But while many were quick to comment on Helen's stunning figure, Helen herself said she 'lacked confidence.' 'My weight all kind of depends on my love life and how stressed I am,' the former Corrie star said, while showing off her stunning blow-dried hair and glam makeup look. Standing in a blue bra, Helen continued to say how nice it was to be asked to help with the edit of the bra she was wearing. 'Even though sometimes you don't feel so confident or toned, just go for it,' Helen said, adding: 'Even though I've got cellulite and my body isn't as toned as it used to be, I just thought 'you know what Helen go for it,' you only live once.' Helen went on to show off the lingerie set, taking a step back from the camera and revealing her enviable physique. The video comes after the former Coronation Street actress jetted to the White Isle with pals to enjoy a day of partying at Wayne Lineker 's famed O Beach Ibiza club. Helen could be seen with a huge smile on her face as she made the most of her time in the sun following her split from boyfriend, Robbie Talbot, 45. The loved-up couple shocked fans when they called time on their romance despite appearing to be happier than ever just months ago. Not one to let a love split get her down, Helen appeared as though she didn't have a care in the world as she danced at the world-famous Ibiza haunt. At one point, she could be seen cuddled up to the venue's owner Wayne as she thanked him for his hospitality in hosting her and her friends at the venue. Wayne could be seen planting a kiss on Helen's head as she proudly held up one of the club's signature orange cups as she wrote on Instagram: "Best day @obeachibiza always the most fun day x." Keeping her celebrity connections going, Helen also could be seen posing in a selfie with former EastEnders star Dean Gaffney. Dean is a regular at the Ibiza venue and became good pals with Helen when they both took part in the first ever All Star edition of I'm A Celebrity, filmed in South Africa. The actor shared the image of the pair as he added the caption: "Old jungle friends." 5
