Love Island contestants were so randy during 'particularly feral year' in show's history that bosses 'had to stock up on condoms'

Daily Mail​2 days ago
This year's Love Island put itself on the reality TV map for being one of the steamiest seasons in recent memory.
The islanders were so frisky, in fact, that the producers had to order more condoms mere days into filming.
A source told The Sun: 'It's been a long while since there was as much action in the bedroom as this year.
'When Harry and Helena went into the hideaway on the third day, it set the ball rolling and it's been a particularly feral year.
'There's been duvet tents almost every night.
'Duty of care is paramount so once it became apparent that the 2025 cast were a frisky bunch, producers took the decision to stock up on condoms.'
One of the most eye-popping moments from this year's Love Island was when footballer Harrison Solomon, 22, asked Harry Cooksley, 30, to pass him a condom in the middle of the night.
Harry was happy to oblige his friend and could be seen on screen passing him a condom.
Lauren Wood, 26, then climbed on top of Harrison before the camera panned away to show the islanders' shocked faces.
The islanders certainly played into producers' hands this season after they made several changes to encourage sexual activity.
'If sex happens, we'll show it. The Hideaway will be open 24 hours,' Mike Spencer, Love Island's Creative Director said.
He added: 'We need to keep the show fresh and exciting. After 10 years, the stats speak for themselves. The show will continue to thrive.'
And although the usual play of Love Island is to couple up with one other person from the opposite sex - bosses said they were hoping for potential throuples in the villa this year as they 'tear up the rule book' and install new furniture to help encourage bonking and create drama.
One of the new additions included a trampoline bed that sits across the swimming pool, and the Love Island exec has insisted it has been tested for up to four people.
The secret hideaway - which included a bed and hot tub - was open 24 hours a day for those that aren't coupled up.
Speaking ahead of the 10-year anniversary series of the hit reality show, Mike told the Mail: 'There's a new trampoline bed, that would be good for throuples.
'It can take the weight of four, we've checked. It's all about keeping the show fresh and exciting. And that's what we've got.'
The producers' desire for a threesome was fulfilled too, with at least one taking place and bombshell Yasmin Pettet, 24, openly suggesting the possibility upon her arrival.
While it's not known exactly how many condoms were supplied to the 2025 islanders, previous reports suggested that producers dispersed 200 around the villa.

Celebrity SAS stars who quit show 'will still receive full fee as Hannah Spearritt bags five figures despite pulling out in minutes'

Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins will reportedly receive their full appearance fee even if they drop out early. The likes of S Club singer Hannah Spearitt and former Love Island star Tasha Ghouri have pulled out of the gruelling Channel 4 show. But according to The Sun, even stars who decide to pack it in themselves still get the full fee they were promised upon signing up. Hannah, who only lasted a minute before bowing out, will still reportedly earn an impressive £10K for her brief appearance. A source said: 'Hannah Spearitt, Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri will all have been paid over £10k - some as much as £20k - but unlike other reality shows, they do get paid if they pull out. The likes former Love Island stars Tasha Ghouri and Chloe Burrows have pulled out of the gruelling Channel 4 show 'So even though Hannah only lasted one minute, she'll still get paid over £10k for that minute. 'It's well worth stars signing up even if they don't think they can complete the show just for the payday - it might be embarrassing taking their armband off early in the show, but it's good money!' MailOnline has contacted Channel 4 and reps for Hannah Spearritt, Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri for comment. The first episode saw both Hannah Spearitt and Louie Spence decide the course wasn't for them. However, the star-studded dropouts continued in the second instalment as the remaining celebs were faced with climbing up a steep hill. Once at the top, they then had to hang from a wire over a ravine. Love Island star Chloe Burrows struggled on the climb, and berated by the Special Forces as she moaned at the trek. One DS shouted: 'Can't do what? We've walked 300 metres up a f***ing hill!' As he continued to goad her - telling the reality star she was 'wasting a massive opportunity' - it all became too much and she quit. Breaking down in tears, Chloe simply said 'I'm done, I'm done' before handing over her arm band after being goaded by the trainers Breaking down in tears, she simply said 'I'm done, I'm done' before handing over her arm band. As she prepared to leave the course, she added: 'F*** off, this is the worst thing I have ever done in my whole life!' The intense scenes continued, as Chloe was soon followed by another fellow Love Island star. Tasha Ghouri started lagging behind the group as the trainers' attention turned to her, telling her to 'dig deep'. Visibly struggling, Tasha handed up her armband and declared she was quitting the show. She said: 'I'm not mentally here. I'm not mentally here to do this.' Tasha and Chloe were reunited as they made their way down the hill, while the rest of the celebrities continued. It leaves just 10 stars left on the show, with the next episode set to air this Sunday at 9pm on Channel 4. Last year, John Barrowman quit SAS after just 32 minutes into filming. He dubbed the 'worst recruit' in the show's history after he told Directing Staff 'I'm done' adding: 'I just... it's not for me, I know who I am and what I'm about, it's not for me' following his arrival on set. Despite his abrupt exit, Daily Mail revealed how John received a whopping £30,000 appearance fee by bosses.
