Love Island: Second Islander is DUMPED from the villa in brutal recoupling - after Blu and Shea raged over shock ultimatum and forced their co-stars to choose who would leave

Daily Mail​a day ago

Love Island's Blu Chegini was the second star to be dumped from the Mallorca villa during Friday night's brutal recoupling.
Sophie Lee was the first person to be dumped from the island earlier this week after Shakira Khan stole her partner Harry Cooksley, leaving her single.
After the arrival of new bombshells Shea Mannings and Remell Mullins, the girls then had to chose who they wanted to recouple with on Thursday night.
Newbie Shea and Blu Chegini were left single and a shock text revealed that they would have to pick which of them would go home in a show first.
After Thursday's cliffhanger, Blu, 26, was ultimately dumped from the villa after he and Shea refused to pick which one of them would go home.
Instead, they forced the safe couples to make the decision for them, with original Islander Blu ultimately getting the fewest votes and being immediately dumped.

FROM: Limerick
OCCUPATION: Professional rugby player
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?Someone who is really sure of themselves, ambitious, a bit of a go-getter and good craic. I like dark eyes and I don't mind a dominant woman.
WOULD MAYA HIRE YOU FOR YOUR FLIRTING SKILLS? Definitely hire. I ask girls if they want to go halves on a baby. It doesn't work, but it gets them laughing. It's an ice-breaker, not a serious question of course!

Truth about the romance rumours swirling around Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones: Insiders tell KATIE HIND how their friendship has evolved - and why it could be great news for the BBC

When the BBC began searching for two permanent presenters to host its Morning Live show, they hoped to find the next Richard and Judy. Another hugely popular married couple like Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan – who launched ITV 's This Morning back in 1998 and defined chatty morning television for a generation – were exactly what BBC bosses wanted if they were to win a ratings war with their long-running ITV rivals.

'Only Dave and I knew how much pain he was hiding as he filmed Hairy Bikers one last time...' Widow LILI MYERS recalls the last weeks of her beloved husband's cancer battle - and an incredibly moving moment in his final hours

I have still not watched the final series of The Hairy Bikers. I'm not sure I could bear it. Dave, my beloved husband, was far more poorly than he let on publicly at that point. Most people wouldn't notice or realise the significance, but I know I'd recognise a look on his face, a slight wince in the way he moved or steadied his balance, and I don't want to be reminded of his struggle.

EXCLUSIVE Seven BBC women alerted bosses over Wynne Evans' conduct... So why did he tell TV's Cat and Ben: 'There have been no complaints about me. Ever'

The BBC received seven complaints from women over Wynne Evans ' conduct towards them, including one claim he made an inappropriate comment about a pregnant woman's breasts during a Zoom call. The Mail on Sunday's revelations come just days after opera singer Evans, axed from his BBC Wales breakfast radio show last month, protested on ITV 's This Morning that there had been no allegations made against him. He appeared on the show last Wednesday to tell hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard: 'There has never been any complaints about me. Ever!' The MoS can instead disclose that BBC Wales staff raised the seven separate grievances between July 2023 and August 2024, including a period after Evans, 53, was approached to appear on last year's Strictly Come Dancing. Four of the complaints were made before he joined Strictly, raising questions over why the dance show's producers signed him up. Three more were made after he had been chosen for the show. A report into his behaviour was prepared in January for a disciplinary hearing which he said he could not attend, citing mental health issues. The Go Compare frontman's time on Strictly was mired in controversy. The Mail on Sunday told in January how he was filmed using the vile term 'spit roast' – a three-way sex act – to his co-star Jamie Borthwick in relation to professional dancer Janette Manrara during the launch of the Strictly Live Tour. He apologised and left the tour. Evans had earlier been caught up in a 'wandering hand' incident with his Strictly dance partner, Katya Jones. One source said of the BBC Wales complaints: 'Some of the comments he made were awful. 'Imagine making a comment about a pregnant woman's breasts. His behaviour left many women feeling uncomfortable.' A former colleague, who wants to remain anonymous for fears of career repercussions, told the MoS the complaints were well known among staff at the Welsh broadcaster but 'everyone was afraid to speak out' because Evans was seen as 'untouchable'. She said: 'That's why he got away with it for so long and why he will get away with it.' The woman revealed how the father-of-two's inappropriate behaviour 'built up over the years'. She said: 'At first, he was known as an idiot and a clown but it turned into something more sinister and tipped into being inappropriate and uncomfortable to be around and work with. 'These complaints are real. He is not just someone who has made a few rude jokes. There are women who have made complaints and he was warned time and time again and just kept going. 'The argument that he has of 'Oh, I'm just a product of my time. It's just a joke'... well, those times are gone and you can't act that way, especially if you have been warned about it.' A BBC spokesman said: 'We take any issues raised with us seriously and we have robust processes in place to deal with them.' A spokesman for Evans declined to comment.
