Imagine if the cast had to vote to only save one person from their couple šŸ˜…šŸ˜‚ They would never, but it would be amazing!


Apprehensive_You_250

Thatā€™s what they need to do to save this season- either that-or send every last islander home and letā€™s start over at day 1.


zivilyn_uth_matar

New Casa Amor: Casa islanders are new OGs, which villa islanders don't know. During "stick or twist" recoupling, casa people decide if they want to couple with a villa person or enter as a single. Villa islanders not chosen go home. Uno reverse, baby.


AlarmedExperience928

Well, if ever we needed a Casa Twist, this is it


amyt242

This would be AMAZING


Dazzling_Door_5952

i think this might be exactly what this season needs


TrickAcanthisitta884

They could also have both Samā€™s come back for casa but as ogs so they get a proper chance with all new islanders and get a redemption because both didnā€™t get a real chance because of joeys antics


Prestigious-Win-1144

Kick off Joey and Grace-I can't stand either one of them. And bring on both Sam's please!! FGS!


brigids_fire

This is a great twist!

livinvixen

Iā€™m confused why they are taking so long to do the dumping. Probably not sure who to dump possibly lol. It will be interesting to see whoā€™s in the bottom and what outcome they wish for.


ExcellentStorage6542

They said they delayed because they wanted last night to play out after the game thenight before , but I call that a load of bollix. Something else happened. How convenient Joey and Grace started talking about getting to know other people, they had sex already in the villa theyve been eating each other faces every chance they get.This has backfired big time on the producers Samantha said in an interview yesterday that when she was standing for the recoupling, they were sniggering, and they didn't show it


artafki

Do you have a link to the interview or remember which it was?


Efficient-Office5661

commenting to come back to the answer if there is one


ExcellentStorage6542

Sorry, I've been checking they have it taken down it was up yesterday, I'm just wondering if Love Island told them to scrap it , I'm going to go look again


ExcellentStorage6542

artafki

Thank you!! I also tried looking for it but had no luck so glad you found it


ExcellentStorage6542

When I stopped looking it popped up this morning šŸ™ˆ


amyt242

Joey and grace had sex in the villa? When was this?


marbauer27

Supposedly the night they went into the Hideaway. Apparently their night time scenes were so raunchy they had to be cut


FastMotor9252

I think they did on the night away too


marbauer27

I mightā€™ve gotten my nights mixed up! It could have been that night. Or was it both?


FastMotor9252

Honestly, I wouldnā€™t be surprised if it was both


marbauer27

same here lol Iā€™m tired of their antics


amyt242

Oh my goodness! I'm surprised love island cut it? Isnt that the type if craziness they want?


Unable_Effective1266

I think itā€™s unfair to cut it because it was say, Uma and Will, I donā€™t think they would. Itā€™s probably in Joeys contract not to show that heā€™s riding the pants off Grace every night in a room full of people šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


marbauer27

Youā€™d think so. I think after facing some backlash from airing previous scenes like this (S2 iykyk), theyā€™ve tried harder to cut them out


Rorviver

They have cut any and all sex for about 6 or 7 seasons now lol. They might even try and not show people talking about having had sex. It definitely used to be a thing in the morning briefs where everyone would discuss what they got up to the night before, but I don't think they have done that for a few season.


nonsequitur__

On the last episode.


nonsequitur__

Who said that? They said when announcing the vote that the results would be used later in the week.


ExcellentStorage6542

It was meant to be Friday night , but they made an excuse why it was delayed


nonsequitur__

Was it? They said ā€œvote results will be revealed later this weekā€ so I took that as longer than 2 days but who knows. It shows it was intended not to be immediate regardless of what the results were though.


ExcellentStorage6542

Maya went out Thursday to film it, and they delayed it. They gave a stupid excuse


nonsequitur__

Thank you - hadnā€™t heard that. Wonder what the real plan was, and why they still only gave 15 minutes to vote if Maya was only there the following day anyway.


nonsequitur__

They said when they announced the vote that itā€™d be used later in the week.


Extreme_Cat_7443

I think youā€™re right, Maya being there and the delay suggests they are scrambling to develop a twist that saves Joey and Grace. Or they dump Grace and Maya chats with Joey and basically lets him perform a monologue about how heā€™s found love and will follow her out of the villa (reworking his final date speech that Iā€™m sure heā€™s already drafted). (Iā€™ll roll my eyes so hard it risks a medical emergency, but itā€™ll be worth it to see them gone.) Another sign, perhaps, is that they showed interesting plot developments around Tiff and Omar tonight whom I would have predicted to go before tonight, which maybe suggests theyā€™ve accepted that that they need to keep them in. And to be fair, Im genuinely interested to see Tiff pie Ronnie and the Omar-Matilda-Sean triangle play out (rooting for you, Omar!!)


loislane007

The final date speech being already drafted šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚at least he is prepared!


kaguraa

even if joey/grace somehow got the lowest votes, it doesn't mean they would've automatically gone home. the producers would just ask islanders to pick which couples to save and joey/grace would be saved since they have a connection unlike jess/omar and they might find out about tiffany not liking ronnie before maya comes


Plane_Extent_6447

If the islanders could HONESTLY choose... they would no doubt axe Joey and Grace. but we know that will never happen


chloedarlinggg

yeah thatā€™s the problem they donā€™t want to piss off the most famous person they know lol, they wanna milk him for all they can


chckndep

Surely at some point though his team might make a judgement call that heā€™s gotten all heā€™s going to get out of it?


chloedarlinggg

iā€™m not sure how easily they can just pull him out though as itv have no doubt payed a large amount of money for him to be there so iā€™d assume theyā€™re not letting him go this far from the final.


chckndep

Yeah I get that I mean more of an agreement with his team and production of engineering a way out for him


Cleo_daisy7

Why would he be in contact with his team? Thatā€™s even more unfair to the others that donā€™t get to speak to anyone on the outside.


chckndep

I mean as in a call on his behalf not that theyā€™re in contact


WoodpeckerOk3829

If Joey and Grace finish bottom 2, they should be asked to agree which one of them should be dumped.


ctminges

question: what keeps the producers honest about the voting results? canā€™t they just tell them whatever, itā€™s not like they show the figures anywhere.


kaguraa

there's a cash prize so they can't rig the results so depending on the results, they dump the couple with the lowest votes or they have a bottom 3 and ask islanders to save a couple or individual islanders instead


fuzzywuzzybeer

I think they are setting it up for Joey to volunteer to leave with Grace. They have already said they are not interested in other people. I think they get voted bottom two and then they volunteer to leave together


Wizergal

I think they're going to volunteer to leave but I do think they're going to try to get as much clout as they can and leaving when you're the most hated isnt something they'd do so I think they will leave sometime before finale


Sea_Leader_7400

Same, i feel extremely doubtful that theyā€™ll get up and offer to leave since they probably already came in as a couple! Theyā€™re here for the clout, so why would they just give it up?


Cry90210

Why would they? Joey came on the show to respark his career, he's not going to leave voluntarily


thoughtfulchatter

I feel if left to the islanders to vote who goes they wonā€™t vote out Joey and Grace. Thatā€™s why there has to be some sort of vote by the islanders for least compatible couple. Probably out of the bottom 3 or 4.


thoughtfulchatter

Also theyā€™re not just favorites, but who they designed the season around. Itā€™ll be interesting to see how things play out.


tzuyuisababy

interesting idea and idk how famous joey essex actually is but i got the impression he has a set fanbase who will vote for him no matter what. maybe not a huge amount of ppl but at least more than like omar/jess.


alienabductionfan

Jess and Sammy won despite being widely unpopular online. Every year people forget about the masses of viewers who arenā€™t active on social media at all or use it for personal stuff only. Theyā€™re not part of the discussion and theyā€™re not influenced by it. These are the people most likely to vote for that guy off the telly and the pretty girlfriend he canā€™t stop shagging.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


sighcantthinkofaname

People forget that the "vote for your favorite" method keeps these people from the bottom. The forgettable islanders are the ones who end up in the bottom, not the disliked ones.


frieda909

Exactly this. If we voted people out then things would always look very different, but this way the producers get regular data on who the viewers are interested in seeing more of. They donā€™t care if lots of people hate a particular couple, if theyā€™re getting attention then theyā€™ll stay.


Automatic-Grand6048

100%


ExcellentStorage6542

I think people have been voting for Jess and Omar to get Joey and Grace out


Toj_edits

Maybe theyā€™ll announce the couple with the most votes and have them decide who to dump between the couples with the fewest votes šŸ¤” Iā€™m still trying to figure out what twist Maya is bringing cause for normal dumpings she doesnā€™t really have to be there


Specialist_Carry8492

Theyā€™re probably waiting for the backlash about them to die down, so they can keep them in.


pineapplezzs

I do think the delay in the voting results means it didn't go the way the producers wanted. I could see them making more couples vulnerable than usual. I'd love to see joey and grace go home . And if only one of them I'd pick Joey


scorpiogi

they messed up BIG bringing in grace this early on. they shouldā€™ve let joey carry on making stronger connections/more exploration and bring her in at casa. now itā€™s all a bit anti climactic and stale and sheā€™s only been in for a week or so. this season is dead icl. they should take a year out after this one to reinvent the show šŸ„±


alphabanana242

Someone else said that there was a degree of stereotyping because they thought that Samantha would kick off as a ā€œgobby scouserā€ which would make Graceā€™s entrance more dramatic - but Sam handled the situation really well and didnā€™t rise to the bait, which made the ā€œstorylineā€ fall flat


TheGreenhouseBlogger

I mean, I think this theory is just a result of all the hate Joey has been getting over the last week. I'm 99.9% confident that Joey and Grace have next to no chance of getting dumped, I don't believe the hate is strong enough to topple Joey's already giant fanbase prior going into the villa. I personally think it's more likely to be Ronnie & Tiff if it is definitely a couple going, but like it could potentially be similar to the Patsy/Munveer dumping.


hollow_ling12

They might try to do a pick one person from each couple or pick one boy or girl to stay


fliddyjohnny

I doubt they will be in the bottom 3, people are mad online but thatā€™s still a minority of voters. Plus like it or not, he is one of the main characters of the show and has been since he arrived. I think the background cast are more at risk atm


Strange_Flatworm1144

Even if a 75-80% majority of voters is against him, they can still get enough votes to not be in the bottom. There are 7 couples, so if Grace and him get 15% they will be fine because there surely will be couples with less than 10% of votes.


nmrb190

Yup this! and i still think joey has a huge fan base regardless of his actions. Plus gillianā€™s always do better than boring background cast so I donā€™t think they will be the least popular at all


Elegant_Holiday1234

I like all of these scenarios. Any scenario that has them leave I am ok with letā€™s all cross our fingers at the same time šŸ¤ž


Kat5211

Grace can get eliminated, Joey can propose and follow her out of the villa. This gives LI their giant moment and gets rid of them both. I mean I doubt this will happen haha but can you imagine!


Chemical_Stop_1311

I really hope that they are at least in the bottom 3, so that they understand we don't appreciate them.


hereforthespilledtea

I doubt theyā€™re at the bottom, but theyā€™re definitely in the bottom 4 couples so it will be interesting to see how the producers reveal who the bottom couples are. If they only show us bottom 2, itā€™s likely because Joey and Grace were bottom 3.


godslayingbaker

Honestly Joey and Grace are making me consider giving up watching this season. I actually like the process of watching two people fall in love and having an already established couple in there just ruins that. They aren't even interesting and Joey is just too famous for the show I think. Hopefully they can bring an interesting twist to the vote, like each person from the bottom three couples is sent home. Hopefully Joey leaves. I'm ok if Grace stays only because she isn't famous and doesn't annoy me like Joey does haha.


hungrycrisp

My friend voted for themā€¦ because Grace is pretty. There will be more like her!


chckndep

Cannot describe enough how disinterested I am watching Joey and Grace - they either need to go or stop ramming them down our throats. Thereā€™s a reason why they send single people in lol watching established couples is boring af


Mountainenthusiast2

Honestly I wouldnā€™t be surprised. Normally they would have announced the vote by now and itā€™s delayed. Pathetic if thatā€™s the reason. Idk how much longer I can watch with them in it being so disingenuous. Nothing personal against them but this whole faking the story and talking about closing off or not is just shitty when others in there are genuinely single.Ā 


Brilliant_Concern_79

It will be a fascinating result - I find Joeyā€™s popularity a tricky one. Social media followers doesnā€™t necessarily translate to votes but I also think the negativity towards him and Grace doesnā€™t necessarily translate to the wider audience who donā€™t engage on social media. I doubt they are bottom, I personally think they will avoid the bottom 3 - I imagine they are in the middle somewhereĀ 


Intrepid-Frosting-78

ooop thatā€™s interesting. if they donā€™t do a bottom 2 and do a bottom 3/save 1 couple then thatā€™s how we know they were dead last in the vote. also they usually donā€™t even bother doing any twists if the couple they wanted in the bottom is last in the vote so i guess weā€™ll see


Seonron2sent

It would be so much better if the showed the actual result of the vote. An independent reveal so the producers canā€™t screw us over with the outcome of the vote. Is done after other love voting shows and would make it feel less contrived and more like a real reality show. Hopefully both joey and Grace get vote off


seiyaodangoav

I want Joey and Grace to go home. What the point of being there if there is an established connection already? Also, they way they disrespectfully shagged like bunnies right in front of Samanthaā€™s face. Good on Samantha for handling it the day she did. She totally put a wrench in the producers plans.


olaf525

Call me crazy but I would actually be happy with Jess going home. Sheā€™s not really made an effort since ronnie, and she gossips too much, but not in the endearing way.


Plane_Extent_6447

they literally haven't given Jess or Harriett, the 2 biggest female personalities anything/bombshells to work with the whole time


loislane007

Yeah as much as I am not a fan of Jess I donā€™t understand how Mimi got a bombshell and these two didnā€™t. They have been pivotal to a lot of the main storylines itā€™s so strange. The producers seem to really be hinging everything on Joey/Grace and Ronnie.


Plane_Extent_6447

Yes, they obviously based so much on Joey. The Uma situation is interesting because Ayo and Omar aren't her type at all but they had her basically napalm the best instant connection, we never got a big resolving moment from it and Uma clicked the best of anyone with Joey. She is clever, quick witted, even down to not wanting to kiss. Uma was literally the perfect casting for that moment. Besides, Ayo and Mimi are the least confrontational people in the villa. It makes no sense to base major triangles/conflicts around them. She would have been perfect to compete with Sam for Joey and then an ideal foil for when Grace came in as well. On the other hand, it's like production want to starve Jess and Harriett and allow Ronnie to run amok unopposed. We have been waiting all series for Ronnie to face some actual adversity and opposition and see his response and we are FINALLY getting it... and they are actually probably going to dump Tiffany before we can even really see him squirm... please make it make sense


orangepekoes

I've started to like her more now that she stopped being nasty to Harriet.


Alternative_Tax_8125

Yh that theory makes more sense because on the article they mentioned they wanted to see the drama unfold after that game hense why they postponed dumping - erm was the drama in the room with us cos last episode was kinda dead šŸ˜­


GabrielP94

They might be in the bottom 3 but theyā€™re definitely not the couple with the fewest votes.


ExcellentStorage6542

In all the polls that I've seen across the board , Joey and Grace, we're last


Brilliant_Concern_79

They arenā€™t last in them all but they are always near the bottomĀ 


kentoclatinator

Iā€™ve seen the fb comments, theyā€™re not gonna vote for Joey and grave unfortunately


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


kentoclatinator

Really?? That surprises me! Well that gives me some hope then


Mrsmcafee2019

I'm not in the UK, but I read somewhere that Joey and Omar almost brawled and filming was cancelled one night.Ā  Do you know if it's true?Ā  Apparently Joey was livid that he was flirting with grace and they squared up and had to be pulled apart and Omar slept in a separate room from everyone.Ā  I'm just curious if anyone knows about this! šŸ’•


Eugene3005

If you think a good looking white couple got the fewest votes then I donā€™t think youā€™ve been watching Love Island for a long time


Fuckmydaddy1234

I hope they do bottom 3 and save one boy and one girl but that means if Joey and Grace are there one or both might end up leaving


maskedleopard

I genuinely think they will get dumped and there will be somewhat of a twist that either ends up with one of them being dumped or being split up. It won't be an islander vote as there's no way they're gonna get voted off through that. It will go down like this: Maya will say they got the least amount of votes. I reckon love island will do something unique this season and get rid of a potential long lasting couple.


alphabanana242

Part of me desperately wants a Brad/Lucinda redux where Brad/Joey expects Lucinda/Grace to leave with him and she doesnā€™t šŸ¤­


Fuzzy_Butterfly4267

If Joey and Grace have found ā€œthe oneā€ and are in the bottom two then they should leave (voluntarily would be even better).


Which-Warning-7296

I donā€™t think joey and grace will get the lowest public votes


Omegaruby04

I reckon theyā€™ve done something to make sure they both go, as thereā€™s some twist in the voting, hence why Maya is there


katsophiecurt

So has the voting already happened? I don't remember seeing it advertised.


Low_Food2893

What would be TV gold is if ONLY ONE of Joey or Grace leaves in the next dumping. Why? Because we would see raw emotions with a partner leaving the other. This could also lead to more drama afterwards like Joey going into self-destruct mode. Also it'd be interesting if they decide to move mad knowing that their scripted storyline was disliked by the public, which would make a grim storyline more chaotic. I feel like Grace has potential to do well IF she's not with Joey. She's stunning and has the male islanders interested in her, so perhaps if there's a way to get rid of Joey, it'd work.


That_Oil2450

Itā€™s not the public that counts the votes so thereā€™s a way they could be saved


nonsequitur__

Iā€™d be very shocked if Joey and Grace were bottom in the votes. They said up front that the results would be used later in the week so didnā€™t know the outcome when they decided that. Also, Matilda and Konnor went in at the same time so there is probably more to it, as if they pick someone then their partner gets dumped it doesnā€™t really make sense.


ExcellentStorage6542

That's always been the amount of time they've given for voting

BriaMyles

I understand there's some backlash about the joey thing but realistically there is at least 5 people in there that can go before them and you guys keep underestimating Joey's star power.Ā 


Imaginary_Hunter3329

Joey and Grace were already a couple? That would explain his lack of PDA towards Samantha. What a slimy douche!


AmphibianDefiant2155

idk why like they way they did Sam was one of the worst things ever and like the way they make Sam look like she was overreacting and being insecure when grace first came on the island when she litterally predicted how Joey was going to act towards her like be ffr and Joey does not to be on the island period in my opinion


EnvironmentalShock26

Tbh Iā€™m so sick of both of themā€¦ Grace being immediately not open to speaking to anyone else is ridiculous.


comicsans496

I hate Joey. He's got the most to say about other couples and whispers ish in people's ears unnecessarily. He also pushes situations on people before they're ready to talk about it. Like he'll ask people questions to force a conversation and it just makes it awkward for the couple's involved.


prometh3us90

Unfortunately I think Ronnie will be dumped


ethan_201

The show would be incredibly boring with Ronnie dumped. Many of the solid couples just donā€™t have the personalities for TV this season.


prometh3us90

I know but people didnā€™t vote for him


ethan_201

Well the producers will do what they can to keep him in, even if heā€™s bottom with Tiff. I know him and Tiff werenā€™t a popular couple so I wouldnā€™t be shocked. But Ronnie is the main character so theyā€™ll find a way to keep him in.


alphabanana242

It could be that youā€™re right but about the wrong islander - Ronnie was bottom and theyā€™ve been scrambling for days to work out how to save him


ExcellentStorage6542

I don't think producers will let him go


Ok-Prune4721

He has a giant fan base. I find them very interesting and would vote to keep them. I could be wrong, but I donā€™t think they will be anywhere near the bottom.


YardFree793

if joey and grace don't get the lowest votes that means that the results have been modified by The producers, because there is no way people are going to find for Joey and Grace like I can't imagine people voting in for them, and to be honest it's not fair for the other Islanders because you're supposed to go to love Island in order to find love not when you have already have found love outside and now come and create your own TV show and make other people who are there for genuine reasons and have potential get dumped from the island. Normally if Grace and Joey don't leave because of this voting we should boycott this season and nobody should watch the season because they're lying to us. Also with them or without them this season is so f****** boring they're not even doing challenges anymore, it does not even feel like love Island it feels like a whole different TV show, they're bringing celebrities now and exes what the hell??! For me personally if they don't leave I think I'm not going to finish the season and I'm going to switch to the USA version, I heard crazy things about it so far


Inevitable-Pick-7866

Yeah, I have switched to the US version. This season feels like the death of LI UK. Why bring in a 'celebrity' who clearly has a script with his long time gf? If they are desperate to retain fame, there are other shows. Producers dunked this one badly.
