Love Island fans furious as behind-the-scenes video gives away which couple were dumped before episode hits screens - raging 'this is a shambles!'

Daily Mail​31-07-2025
Love Island fans have shared their fury after a behind-the-scenes video posted on TikTok gave away which couple has been dumped before the episode had even aired.
It comes after it was revealed that one couple is brutally dumped from villa during Thursday's instalment of the ITV2 dating show.
A fan took to their page on the social media platform to share a montage of clips of the boys filming outside of the villa in a small village called Sant Llorenç in Mallorca.
They show a sneak peek showing boys of last hurrah before the show wraps up on Monday 4 August.
The user, named @ka.rensjourney, captioned the post: '@LoveIsland when in #majorca #loveisland being filmed. #mademyday #tvshow #fyp.'
However many flooded to the comments section to point out that they had noticed that only four out of the five remaining boys were present in the clips.
For those of you who don't want tonight's dumping to be ruined, please look away now...
In one clip the user zooms in on the boys who are all being filmed turning around to the camera from a distance.
And then in a clearer shot, Cach, Jamie, Harry, Dejon, Conor and Ty are seen walking towards the camera crew.
Many rushed to the comments section to speculate who has been booted off the show.
'Omg that means Blu and Helena got dumped.'
'So Blu has gone then.'
'Yesss that means H & B have gone.'
'That means Helena is gone then?!'
Many rushed to the comments section to share their opinions on what the video has revealed

Meanwhile others fumed that tonight's outcome has been revealed.
'Thanks for confirming it, watch out ITV don't see this.'
'This season's a shambles, how have they managed to let a massive spoiler like this slip.'
'Thanks for revealing which couple got dumped.'
'Omg spoiler.'
'Well thanks for that.'
Wednesday's instalment of the ITV2 show saw Shakira go in on Meg while taking part in an explosive challenge, as well as the Islanders take part in this year's talent show.
This evening's episode (31 July 2025), the remaining stars will show off their skills, but will be rocked by a shock dumping.
One of the Islanders reads out: 'The public have been voting for their favourite couple.
'The couple with the fewest votes and therefore dumped from the island is….'
This means that either Meg and Dejon, Shakira and Harry, Conor and Megan, Angel and Ty, Blu and Helena or Toni and Cach will have to wave good bye to their pals.
Following that text, another Islander reads out which pair will be heading out of the villa.
Before that, viewers will see the remaining Islanders show off their skills in the talent show.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's awkward 'A-lister' move after surprise mix up

When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were invited to a movie premiere in Jamaica, a seating mix-up led to a very awkward situation, which has now been decoded by a body language expert While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are used to receiving celebrity treatment, a seating mix up at a movie premiere prompted an awkward reaction from the Sussexes, with Harry's "lack of experience" at Hollywood events making for a cringeworthy moment - according to an expert. ‌ Back in January 2024, Harry and Meghan were invited to the premiere screening of the Bob Marley: One Love biopic, making a surprise appearance at the glitzy event at the Carib Theatre in Jamaica. ‌ After posing for photos on the red carpet, Harry and Meghan mingled with fans and dignitaries alike, including anti-monarchist Jamaican prime minister Andrew Holness, before making their way inside for the screening. It comes as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's new Netflix deal could cause 'concern' for Royal Family. ‌ While the Sussexes made their way to the front row to sit with the other VIPs at the event, it appears they couldn't conceal their shock when they were asked to move a few rows back, leaving them seated in the third row. According to body language expert Judi James, it was Harry more than Meghan who was surprised at the request to sit further from the state. She told the Daily Mail: 'While [Meghan's] smile suggests her expression of utter graciousness was unflinching, Harry clearly hangs back, performing several gestures of reluctance, discomfort and even indecision.' Judi analysed the rest of Harry and Meghan's appearance at the event, noting that Meghan appeared to see it as a "full-blown Hollywood" event as they both pulled moves "A-list celebrity couples perform". She explained: "Meghan seemed to treat this red carpet appearance as a full-blown Hollywood one. She looked regal and gracious in her elegant ballgown and pulled the kind of moves A-list celebrity couples perform, like the romantic gesture of ownership as she places a hand on Harry's chest." ‌ Judi added: "Meghan was fully in charge of the steering on the night, gently nudging Harry around and at one point pulling his hand out of his trouser pocket so that she could hold hands with him to walk into the venue.' 'Harry was showing body language signs of anxiety as they posed for their red carpet photos, but these increased and peaked once the couple were inside the venue and being ushered to their seats.' ‌ Judi further explained Harry's discomfort at the event as she said: 'For Harry, public functions in the Royal Family have always meant top billing, the best seats in the house and preferential treatment." 'But here there is a more unilateral look, where they were expected to take their own seats and maybe even buy their own popcorn. Harry's lack of experience in this kind of scenario seems to show through here.' According to Ms James, this is not the first time that the couple have appeared to view themselves as "A-listers", as she said at the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf in September 2023, the pair presented themselves as a "celebrity power couple" during a rock star welcome.

Prince Harry 'lonely' as Meghan Markle 'takes back seat' after explosive row

Meghan Markle has returned to Instagram posting and publicly announced her and Prince Harry new deal with Netflix - but there is one issue she's not spoken out about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may be toasting their new Netflix deal - but a war of words has still rumbled on in the background. ‌ Earlier this year, the Duke of Sussex stepped down from Sentebale, the charity he founded to help children orphaned by Aids in Lesotho, following a boardroom battle with the chairwoman, Dr Sophie Chandauka. ‌ Harry was said to be devastated by the row, which saw all sides rebuked by the Charity Commission for allowing the war of words to play out so publicly. Meghan was even dragged into the row earlier this year when Dr Chandauka claimed she caused a stir at a fund- raiser for the charity with little notice. ‌ But despite posting on Instagram and publicly announcing the new Netflix deal, Meghan has stayed silent on the row. And according to former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond, there is good reason for this. She told the Mirror: "This is a very sensitive issue all round. Sentebale was Harry's charity from the start, along with his co-founder, Prince Seeiso. "The allegations of misogyny and misogynoir - both discounted by the charity commission - make this an even more sensitive issue for Meghan to become involved with. "So I think she has wisely taken a back seat on this and left it to her husband. I'm sure she has supported and comforted him in private, and I think Harry will completely understand that it's not her place to get involved in a public row with his charity." ‌ Since the Charity Commission's report, it has since been revealed that Harry might be set to start a new humanitarian charity. His spokesperson said: "The duke remains absolutely committed to continuing the work he started, supporting the children and young people of Lesotho and Botswana, nearly 20 years ago. In what form that support takes — no decisions have been made. "All options remain on the table; whether that be starting a new charity or working to support pre-existing charities operating in the same sector in the region." But for royal historian and expert Dr Tessa Dunlop, Meghan's silence on the issue has been notable. She added: "Now that Meghan and Harry have signed a new Netflix deal ('looser' and apparently less lucrative than the previous $78m one but a deal nonetheless), might the Duchess find her voice? ‌ "Not the one she volubly uses to hawk As Ever wares (in conjunction with Netflix) but rather the voice Meghan famously re-found after leaving the Royal Family, the one that talked her truth to royal power and surely could talk her truth to the Sentebale fiasco? "No, really, why hasn't Meghan come out batting for Prince Harry in his latest round of verbal fisty-cuffs concerning his former African charity? After all, the Duke has consistently spoken out in support of his wife, establishing the precedent early on and against the wishes of his family when he condemned Britain's media coverage and insisted he had never before witnessed such a 'degree of pressure, scrutiny and harassment' from the press. As it currently stands, Harry cuts a lonely figure."

I lost touch with cooking when I had my baby, just because I didn't have as much time.

She said: 'Looking at those first few days in the kitchen, this is the highest level we've ever had. Sometimes the dishes can look a bit rough around the edges but actually taste amazing - but this year, I thought everyone's first cook looked great and tasted great… well, from what we've managed to snatch off the counter anyway.'
