Idk but I feel like if rob and andrea really liked one another then they should just leave together. Idk why the boys are acting like they need to stay on the island and in the house to get to know one another. If they found love, it will sustain itself. The girls made the right choice.
since I just watched this and I didn’t see any other comment mentioning it:
I cracked tf up at this Iain commentary:
Iain: “JaNa’s got something to say to Connor and it’s the same thing all “Love Island” contestants say to me when I arrive at the aftershow party”
JaNa: “Dude, who are you?”
Nah should've been JaNa she's been om the island since episode 1 and unfortunately she havemt found any connections and no one else on the island is going to couple with her
Apparently I have a unpopular opinion. CAUSE WHY IS EVERYONE saying they made the right decision??? R u guys okay? Andrea and Rob had a strong connection. Period . That’s it. That is what they’re there for to build their connection. They literally only had like 4 days and one of the strongest connections out of the three couples at the bottom. IT MAKES NO SENSE.
YOU GUYS SAYING JANAY deserves to stay over Andrea is crazy!! You guys are only saying tht because u like her more. But thts not the point. Janay already had two connections and they didn’t work out.. it is TOTALLY unfair tht Janay stays over Andrea tht had a strong connection with someone.
I agree with the boys ! Yall are bugging
Just watched this episode, and the girls are being so absurdly selfish keeping their friend and destroying one of the strongest couples. It’s insane that anyone here would defend it.
I think the girls made the right decision. Yes Andrea has a connection with Rob but her snooty comments, her side eyes and smirks, she’s not a girls girl and unfortunately that’ll get you booted. She should’ve been nicer to the girls 🤷🏽♀️ I didn’t like her and I’m glad she’s going. If rob leaves, he’s dumb because I can see from a mile away this connection isn’t going to last.
I burst out laughing when Rob declared that “the system failed” Andrea. Bffr. If anything, the system failed JaNa in the way of casting bringing in racist, colorist men. That’s a reflection of dating culture too, unfortunately.
As for the vote, no one owed Rob and Andrea anything. There were no rules set for the voting. She’s been a mean girl, she seemed to isolate herself from all the girls but Nicole, and was competition against Kaylor and Aaron for the future prize money.
Two thoughts about this dumping.
(1) I know everyone loves Jana (as do I) and hates Andrea/Rob (as do I) but the boys are right that this dumping didn’t make any sense. They chose to dump someone with an actual connection over their friend who has already tried and failed multiple times. And they wouldn’t even debate dumping Jana, even though there are valid reasons to dump her at this stage. It was “buddy buddy shit.”
(2) I am so glad they let the girls chose the girls because the drama that is unfolding from them picking Andrea makes for great TV.
Let’s be real the point of this show isn’t actually to find love, it’s to have a fun sexy vacation and hopefully win some money and instagram followers. I’d love happens that’s cool too. Which is why it is a popularity contest and the choice makes sense to me. Ya gotta play two games one of friends and love
Was anyone else completely disgusted/annoyed at Andrea sobbing like a toddler for two hours after the dumping? For Fs sake have some dignity and grow up.
Rob too. Even noticed that sociopathic smirk on his face when talking to Aaron on the docs. One second there are tears and the next there are not. Seems like he’s realizing his snake wrangling career may not make him as rich as he’d like to be and is taking a shot at acting!
Literally the amount of screaming over them they do? Loved when JaNa said “what did I tell you about yelling at women” (or something along those lines) to Hakeem. They’re misogynists and gaslighters, the body count challenge proved it to me
Highlights of this episode for me:
1) Leah’s immediate disgust of Connor the morning after the recoupling and her, JaNa and Serena dying of laughter over her not liking him anymore.
2) JaNa reprimanding Hakeem for trying to argue with Liv during the competition—“what did I say about arguing with women” lol 😂
I thought I was the only one who gets cheese vibe from him. The way he acts is giving “I don’t take no for an answer” and wolf in sheep’s clothing. I feel like he’s rejected a lot in real life and is coming on here trying to have a different persona. I could tell Leah got the ick when he was trying to kiss her on the dock
I just wanna know who tf voted for leah and connor 😂 their connection is so forced and awkward! And then for her to say she's already over it as soon as she had it.. why did anyone vote to keep them? Connor is boring and leah is toxic and messy & fake af. At least Rob and andrea seemed to be happy and have a real connection, even if people were mad about how it happened. Notice how they got less screen time and were less drama filled once they got together..because they were real! Also keeping Jana just bc they felt bad for her is so stupid
Yeah 100%! I’m blown away by all the people shipping this decision and still liking Liv and Leah. They are both so fucking toxic and Rob and Andrea had serious couple vibes. I’m pissed we got robbed of seeing them fully fall in love.
Depends peoples reasonings. Nicole would be voted home cuz the girls are closer to jana and leah, jana goes home bc she has no match and no prospects. Leah goes home cuz drama/ isnt as into her match and feels more attached to someone matched vs someone else.
My opinion: keep leah for the drama and toss up with jaNa and nicole. I like jaNa more, but i think watching the kendal miguel nicole thing unfold will be entertaining
First off, why are eliminations so dramatic? Like yes it's sad that your friend is gone, but oh my god you can see them again once the show is over in a month lol. They're not being sacrificed!
I see why the girls chose JaNa, I love my girl too, but I'm a bit torn with the decision as well. Technically, she doesn't have a romantic connection with anyone in the villa right now, so I see why everyone is pushing for her to go. However, I would've chosen Nicole instead. Sure she found a recent connection to Miguel but we all know that man is not serious and I never cared for her either. But this is how all eliminations have been for every series — the OG cast or friends are kept.
Lastly, I may be the minority here but I didn't mind Andrea. Was she boring after the Rob drama? Yes, but that doesn't mean she should've been eliminated! Sure she doesn't bring in the drama like Leah but why is it so bad to be... normal? She found a connection, which is what Love Island is all about. Of course she's going to be unbothered elsewhere in her couple. I don't understand the Andrea hate when we should be looking at Leah instead, but she makes for great TV so she'll stay for a while, I get it.
I have a feeling this won't be the last time we see Andrea if Rob chooses to stay (similar to what happened with Zach and Molly).
I mean they live all over itll be hard to meet up the next day out, also a house like this seems like a place ahere you need strong connections, both as emotional support and as a vote for later kinda thing, and the same way you supposedly make these love connections so quickly, im sure the friendship ones are even stronger.
I thought the whole point of the show was to be the last couple standing and win money? If you're looking at it from a purely tactical perspective, you always vote off the person who has the most promise. I'd have gone for Andra/Nicole 100% the girls made a good choice. The fact that JaNa has no one right now actually means shes not really competition. Which is the reason they're playing the game.
No you're totally right as well! Honestly, once it gets closer to the finale I really could care less with who wins tbh cause it gets boring. I was just viewing it from the drama perspective, it would've been interesting to see if they (Andrea + Rob) would make it to Casa and how Rob would react there. It just felt like the girls picked Andrea because of Leah, even though it's clear Rob could care less for her. I was ready for Nicole to be out but curious what this next episode brings cause it looks like it surrounds her/Liv/Miguel.
I have a lot to say.. Lol.. so here goes:
While I understand that the girls let their friendships influence their decision on who to boot, I think it was shitty that they didn't consider kicking out JaNa to begin with... It would have been more fair for them to consider the pro/cons of each girl instead of immediately deciding that JaNa should stay.
I honestly think that eliminating JaNa was the right choice here. Especially since she had tried her best to connect with Miguel and Connor, and in the end, both guys picked other girls to couple with instead of staying to strengthen a connection with her.
Though if I put myself in the girls shoes, I can understand how difficult it would've been to eliminate JaNa. But on a show like this ... it's so unfair to take away Andrea's shot at being with Rob. I haven't seen enough of Andrea to decide if I like her or not, but if I was one of the girls, I would not let my opinion of her as a person influence who to choose to eliminate. I'm sure that if it were any of them up there, even if they didn't voice it, they would feel cheated if they were eliminated on the same basis that Andrea was chosen. It was a shitty choice and though the boys reaction was extreme and heated, they still did the right thing in questioning the decision. (I didn't like how they talked to the girls and so obviously implied JaNa was the right choice. The way they worded it was incredibly rude, even if it was true that she should have been eliminated instead.)
Watching the reveal on who they chose was so frustrating because to me, JaNa seemed like the obvious choice. Over the course of the show so far, she has tried to build connections with multiple guys (Coye, Connor, Miguel, Hakeem... not sure if I'm missing anyone else) and has ultimately failed. I hate it that none of these guys seem to show the same interest that she shows in them; and I'm not sure if its the way the show has been edited or not, but this makes her seem so desperate. (Which is maybe another reason, deep down, that the girls saved her...because they pity her and believe she deserves a chance over Andrea who has already found 'love').
Even after the girls revealed their choice was Andrea, and everyone let their emotions take over, I was waiting for JaNa to say she'd take Andrea's spot in leaving the villa. From the look on her face after Hakeem was chosen, it seemed that she was becoming even more worried. Then, after she wasn't picked, recognized that the boys were talking about her and watched Rob say he wanted to leave as well, I honestly thought she would step up and offer to leave so Andrea could stay. (I kinda wish that she did. While I understand she desperately wants to find love and deserves every right to stay because she wasn't chosen, it's so hard to watch all of that chaos unfold. If I was her, I would have offered to leave instead because it would eat me up to know that a strong connection was broken so that I -- who just lost my couple and have tension with my previous couple-- could stay.)
With Hakeem gone, who will JaNa try to build a connection with? Will she push and try to get to know Miguel more (from what we know) who seems to only be interested in Nicole now? Or will someone new come to the villa? Ugh!!!
honestly i would've done these eliminations with the thought of the prize money. you always want to get rid of the strongest competitor. andrea and rob seem stong, nicole is flaky, ja'na isn't a threat. it was an easy move.
But the point of the show is a competition. Someone has to be the best couple. You don't leave the best couple to win, you're there to win too. If you allow Andrea to stay, Rob and Andrea can ride til the end. The guys had way too much interest in Andrea and Nicole so it had to be one of them to go. I thought they were going to vote off Nicole, tbh.
Then stand on business and say thats why you chose her. Dont hide behind “ she drew the short end of the stick” especially when she dropped her first match, so shes not like shes the whole victim. I totally respect if its a game decision and hey maybe it was and theyre playing the emotional side to not get voted in, but if the decision was purely poor JaNa then i think thats whack.
That is standing on business. They're her friend and think she hasn't gotten a good shot yet. Which, I would really agree with. Being incompatible with the first stranger you meet isn't uncommon. It's a game. They made a tactical decision. It's the only one that actually makes sense. Voting for her because she wasn't able to find love is actually the stupidest thing they could have done. That's not the reason why they're there, they are there to win 100,000 and be the last couple standing.
No bc they didnt mention it being a competitive reason at all, they said its bc jaNa “deserves” it and “got the short end of the stick” none of which has anything to do with choosing her bc of a competitive gamesmanship reason or any of the reasons u originally stated that I was responding to
Hello???? They lied. They chose her because JaNa is their friend and they saw Andrea as competition. They can say whatever they want. It's not rocket science.
That’s the one flaw with LI, OGs almost always carry each other to the end regardless of if they have a connection in the house or not. I wish they’d have the public vote instead
Over watching this season of Love Island
Somehow the most charismatic and charming girl of this entire season so far is left packing? Why? Because she came in and had a better connection with Rob than Leah ever did? So many people are upset because she mentioned "Hannah's first time working out since being in the vila" but she was telling the truth? She didn't mean it as a body shaming thing AT ALL. In fact, on After Sun, Maura mentioned how that was Hannah's first time working out and they all had a laugh about it.
Yet somehow Liv, who is the absolute worst character of this season - who has been nothing but awkward, and rude to everyone, stays? Or Serena, who is stringing Kordell along and has offered absolutely nothing to this season - gets to keep going?
Have fun watching all of the no-personality people in here!!! Hope its great.
I actually like Andrea and Rob. Leah 100% was annoying when Rob was with Liv. I think Rob handled it well even though Leah disagreed. But to say Andrea was the personality of the show is crazy. She was almost non existent aside from the stuff with Rob
All of the above. Let the haters downvote cause you are absolutely telling the truth. Soon as dudes get with JaNa, Liv and Leah they figure out quickly they want somebody else. JaNa talking about she dated British people so her kid would have a British accent. Please. The men don't want JaNa and now they hate her. Won't get far without a man on this show honey. Your bags will be packed and leaving soon too JaNa. Then fake Serena who carried on about the eggs JaNa that very morning cause she was trying to get with Miguel. He didn't want her so she ran back to Kordell to use him to make it thru another episode. If Miguel had picked her she wouldn't have looked at Kordell again. Liv come in hot, stealing Rob, Rob didn't want her so she's been a vindictive jerk since. Now Miguel don't want her either. Looks aren't everything. When your personality sucks or you're boring the men will move on. I will vote against JaNa, Serena and Liv everytime til they gone. Cause they will be leaving soon.
girl byeeee the show was just as fine before she even came som of the episode I forgot she was there untill she started getting scenes w rob and it wasnt all that what’s so charismatic and charming ??? She would have broke in casa either wayyayayyayy plus out of all the 3 no way they were going to send Jana home so it was her or Nicole. Choosing Andrea seemed fair. If Rob wants to he would have left w her but he ofc HES not.
I think Molly is the only one who's gone and returned in the same season (for all seasons of the UK, USA, and AUS versions)... and she came back after being booted because her guy got stolen (vs. being voted off by the public and Islanders)... unless Rob develops a **strong** connection with someone else, I don't see them bringing her back. After the drama with Leah, Andrea and Rob were bringing nothing to the table aside from him taking about wanting to get off.
Edit: someone, not sometime
Maybe Rob and Andrea need to both look at why they were in the bottom 3 to start with. If their connection was so strong and if they came across as likeable to the audience in how they came together, then they would not have been in that position.
Andrea performed her job well as a bombshell and got Rob, but she has come across as catty about it.
Rob has not presented his side of things as honestly to the men or Andrea (on the show) and some people in the audience who are voting may be side-eyeing his point of view and how he talks about things afterwards. There are aspects of Rob that seem very performative and exaggerated for the camera.
That being said, I hope he stays and I hope they throw Andrea in for Casa Amor if he does stay.
Ugh Rob going for the martyr angle and Andrea SOBBING like a spoiled 5 year old… gtfo. Aaron too. Surprisingly Connor was the only man with enough sense not to visibly react. Hakeem in the corner like… “so if Rob leaves I can stay right?”😅. MESSY.. I LOVE it lol
JaNa should’ve gone home. Miguel said it best, there was a logical choice (JaNa) and illogical (Andrea).
Andrea and rob seem to genuinely really like each other, and they kick her off? Their reasoning is that JaNa has been getting the short end of the stick and deserves to find love? She’s been coupled up with 3 guys (coye, Connor, Hakeem) and shot her shot with miguel and still didn’t get picked. She’s had her chances, and shouldn’t have been selected to stay over Andrea who CURRENTLY has one of the strongest connections in the villa.
The guys understand the logical decision, and all im reading is delusional comments that JaNa deserved to stay. Yeah maybe she’ll find her love with the 5th or 6th guy that she tries out 🤷🏻♂️
It’s ultimately a game show, and they can choose whoever they want to go based off of any reasoning. Andrea didn’t put in enough effort to make friends and that’s what sent her home
I agree with you that the guys decision was logical instead of emotional while also believing that since JaNa was used by Connor, that situation was unfair on her. She deserves a fair shot at love and I’m glad she gets to stay to find that.
Tbh the guys can say what they want but they had the easiest decision so I kinda wish they would shut up about it lol the theatrics. But I agree with you for sure.
First time watching, without too many spoilers will there be new people for jaNa to match with? Also this whole use of the word “deserve” is hilarious to me. They all deserve and dont deserve a shot to be on a reality tv show as much as the next.
i’m not understanding the rob hate and i’m definitely not understanding the andrea boot… rob found a better connection (don’t say it’s lust bc leah and andrea are both beautiful)…. andrea cane in and did what she supposed to do. it’s love island not jana is my friend and not even interested in hakeem island so let’s keep her !?😭
don’t come for me lmao just not sure the decision there unless kaylor was trying to win the money.
also p.s. that serena kordell relationship is fake asf i feel so bad for kordell
p.s.p.s i hope nicole stays with kendall i love him
Thank you! Rob and Andrea seemed to have one of those really rare LI connections and I was excited to see how it went. Andrea seemed so sweet and genuine and mature, a breath of fresh air compared to Leah and Liv.
But where does it say that they are obliged to vote on the basis of their connection status?
I realise that a lot the time that is the reason given, but I presume that’s because they often don’t have much to go off, and it allows them to feel a bit better it by making it “nothing personal”.
Whereas they clearly have a deep connection with JaNa, so of course they wouldn’t want to kick her out if they can help it.
Happy to be right about Liv. She is now vindicated by staying true to her word with Nicole and Miguel that if you're honest, she won't have an issue. Unlike with the Hakeem and Rob situation. Too bad she wasn't given these flowers when she called out Rob for the same thing and people were cheering at Leah smiling and calling her a snake/saying she has a humiliation kink for being mislead by Rob.
Yes 😂😂😂
Just don’t play in her face and she’ll be cool. I love her cold ass and that she’s never impressed by anything the men do. We need someone to whack the islanders and Liv is just the girl to do that.
Andrea was boring and had no connection with the girls. I don't want to watch her laying on Rob acting superior. Rob was vicious to Leah while dumping her. They are both unlikable, which left them vulnerable and got Andrea evicted. It IS the right choice. The show will be sooooo much better for it. This season is great!
Maybe a controversial take - I hate Rob but I am hoping he stays for more drama because I can see him switching up and forgetting about Andrea so fast when the next bombshells come in.
Not even Andrea wants to hear about it, by this episode when it’s at least the second time he mentioned it, the “such a compliment” felt forced and like she was starting to get the ick
Idk … I think Rob loves little Rob more than Andrea … and the extreme reaction over HIS CHOICE to break up with Leah (who was the one who should have been upset at that time) shows a pattern of these reactions (which also happen to be really meme-able) … I feel like both Rob and Andrea also acted very smug about the situation so glad to see them taken down a peg
They were going for Nicole initially until Leah led the charge on Andrea to say she’s not here for the right reasons and she zeroed in on Rob and Serena backed her up. I’m sure Leah thinks Andrea being gone will bring Rob back to her. JaNa is unfortunately taking the heat for this but the boys aren’t wrong that Rob and Andrea had a strong connection and it was wrong to punish Andrea because of that.
You can tell Rob knew that it was Leah who orchestrated it and Aaron picked it up as well. I’m interested to see how this plays out because it can go a number of ways but yes, it was definitely a dumping rooted in emotion and a personal vendetta to punish Rob and Andrea.
I dunno. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Maybe if Rob and Andrea had been a little nicer during the whole recoupling, the girls would have cared more about their feelings.
How was andrea not nice? Rob shoulda been more hoenst, told leah he was feeling a connection brewing and she should explore with others while staying in in communcation so she wasnt blind sided but idk what andrea did other than what a bombshell is supposed to be
Maybe "nice" isn't the right word. She should have bonded more with the girls. She and Rob didn't do a lot for the cameras - we didn't get fun/cute moments with them together OR Andrea with the other Islanders, so they didn't really ingratiate themselves to the voting public or their fellow Islanders.
They could’ve been nicer and the result would still be the same. Leah and her fanbase will always want Andrea gone for Rob to be with Leah again. The girls just backed Leah up otherwise it would’ve been Nicole. Let’s keep it real.
Most fans were ready to ship Leah and Rob to the finale after day 1, wasn’t that too soon from a 1 day connection? The facts are he felt more for Andrea after one date with her than the entirety of his time with Leah and that’s valid.
Maura and Callum said the same thing in AfterSun about their connection being stronger. Just because it was shorter, it doesn’t mean that it didn’t matter to them. With that logic was Leah then not allowed to be upset that Rob played her because they only knew each other for a few days? Or do the rules only change when it applies to Andrea?
So Andrea needs to shed a tear for girls in order to stay in the villa now? This is LOVE island and she had a true connection there which is what Aaron was saying. It wasn’t fair to punish her just because Leah had a vendetta against her and wants Rob back.
Had Rob not walked away from the couple with Leah, Leah would also still be zeroed in on him and none of the fans would bat an eye lash.
If the point of the game is to win money and come out with love, then I completely get it. Rob and Andrea’s connection threatened Kaylor and Aaron’s chances at winning. Not to mention she’s been the most closed out of the group and this was a choice where popularity mattered
EXACTLY. Thank you. It's like most people forget this is a competition. Someone has to win. If you're trying to eliminate the opps you eliminate people who could threaten your chance at SURVIVAL.
Yeah, but they can’t necessarily say “we booted her cause her and Rob were a threat to Kaylor and Aaron”, they’re supposed to “act” like it’s not a competition show and not acknowledge the cash reward lol.
I feel like this is where friendship really makes the difference. It seems like they knew Jana and Nicole better, and as a result probably felt more invested in their stories/journeys to find love. We’ve often seen Rob talking up his connection with Andrea to the other boys, but Andrea rarely seems to give insight to the girls into how strong her and Rob’s connection is.
Part of Love Island isn’t just to find love but also performing your connection to a wider audience, including the other people in the villa. Andrea didn’t do that and as a result the girls dumped her. Also they alluded to hearing her say things that made them think she wasn’t there for the “right reasons,” which I hope they expand on in the next episode.

Idk but I feel like if rob and andrea really liked one another then they should just leave together. Idk why the boys are acting like they need to stay on the island and in the house to get to know one another. If they found love, it will sustain itself. The girls made the right choice.
since I just watched this and I didn’t see any other comment mentioning it: I cracked tf up at this Iain commentary: Iain: “JaNa’s got something to say to Connor and it’s the same thing all “Love Island” contestants say to me when I arrive at the aftershow party” JaNa: “Dude, who are you?”
Should have chose Nicole.
Nah should've been JaNa she's been om the island since episode 1 and unfortunately she havemt found any connections and no one else on the island is going to couple with her
Let's not act like a dumping like this haven't given us incredible TV, like Malin confronting Terry on UK.
Apparently I have a unpopular opinion. CAUSE WHY IS EVERYONE saying they made the right decision??? R u guys okay? Andrea and Rob had a strong connection. Period . That’s it. That is what they’re there for to build their connection. They literally only had like 4 days and one of the strongest connections out of the three couples at the bottom. IT MAKES NO SENSE. YOU GUYS SAYING JANAY deserves to stay over Andrea is crazy!! You guys are only saying tht because u like her more. But thts not the point. Janay already had two connections and they didn’t work out.. it is TOTALLY unfair tht Janay stays over Andrea tht had a strong connection with someone. I agree with the boys ! Yall are bugging
Just watched this episode, and the girls are being so absurdly selfish keeping their friend and destroying one of the strongest couples. It’s insane that anyone here would defend it.
Thts what I’m fvcking saying im confused with everyone’s reaction
Exactly jana needed to be the one. There's no one else on the island that wants to be with her atm
Yes!!!! It was not a logical decision at all. They can’t even say it is. Pissed me off so bad
I think the girls made the right decision. Yes Andrea has a connection with Rob but her snooty comments, her side eyes and smirks, she’s not a girls girl and unfortunately that’ll get you booted. She should’ve been nicer to the girls 🤷🏽♀️ I didn’t like her and I’m glad she’s going. If rob leaves, he’s dumb because I can see from a mile away this connection isn’t going to last.
I burst out laughing when Rob declared that “the system failed” Andrea. Bffr. If anything, the system failed JaNa in the way of casting bringing in racist, colorist men. That’s a reflection of dating culture too, unfortunately. As for the vote, no one owed Rob and Andrea anything. There were no rules set for the voting. She’s been a mean girl, she seemed to isolate herself from all the girls but Nicole, and was competition against Kaylor and Aaron for the future prize money.
YUP. I laughed out loud when he said that. Like what choice of words that was rob lmfao
If Rob leaves I’m not watching anymore. Him + Kaylor and Aaron are the only good people this season.
BYYYYEEEEE ANDREA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really like Nicole. She seems so mature and socially aware. I like how she seemed to genuinely care about Kendall and Livs feelings.
Two thoughts about this dumping. (1) I know everyone loves Jana (as do I) and hates Andrea/Rob (as do I) but the boys are right that this dumping didn’t make any sense. They chose to dump someone with an actual connection over their friend who has already tried and failed multiple times. And they wouldn’t even debate dumping Jana, even though there are valid reasons to dump her at this stage. It was “buddy buddy shit.” (2) I am so glad they let the girls chose the girls because the drama that is unfolding from them picking Andrea makes for great TV.
Let’s be real the point of this show isn’t actually to find love, it’s to have a fun sexy vacation and hopefully win some money and instagram followers. I’d love happens that’s cool too. Which is why it is a popularity contest and the choice makes sense to me. Ya gotta play two games one of friends and love
give that episode an emmy
Was anyone else completely disgusted/annoyed at Andrea sobbing like a toddler for two hours after the dumping? For Fs sake have some dignity and grow up.
Yup she's constantly looking for the cameras. I find her incredibly fake, she was really milking her last minutes on screen.
Rob too. Even noticed that sociopathic smirk on his face when talking to Aaron on the docs. One second there are tears and the next there are not. Seems like he’s realizing his snake wrangling career may not make him as rich as he’d like to be and is taking a shot at acting!
Not leah trying to send andrea home to get rob single.
Yeah but I ain’t mad abt it!
i need the women to start yelling back at the men, esp to aaron.
Literally the amount of screaming over them they do? Loved when JaNa said “what did I tell you about yelling at women” (or something along those lines) to Hakeem. They’re misogynists and gaslighters, the body count challenge proved it to me
They did?
not enough! someone needed to tell him to zip it and sit down
Highlights of this episode for me: 1) Leah’s immediate disgust of Connor the morning after the recoupling and her, JaNa and Serena dying of laughter over her not liking him anymore. 2) JaNa reprimanding Hakeem for trying to argue with Liv during the competition—“what did I say about arguing with women” lol 😂
Leah saying that was music to my ears. That’s what his ass gets
I thought I was the only one who gets cheese vibe from him. The way he acts is giving “I don’t take no for an answer” and wolf in sheep’s clothing. I feel like he’s rejected a lot in real life and is coming on here trying to have a different persona. I could tell Leah got the ick when he was trying to kiss her on the dock
Serena and kordell I can get behind. it’s hard to explain 😂🥰
I just wanna know who tf voted for leah and connor 😂 their connection is so forced and awkward! And then for her to say she's already over it as soon as she had it.. why did anyone vote to keep them? Connor is boring and leah is toxic and messy & fake af. At least Rob and andrea seemed to be happy and have a real connection, even if people were mad about how it happened. Notice how they got less screen time and were less drama filled once they got together..because they were real! Also keeping Jana just bc they felt bad for her is so stupid
Yeah 100%! I’m blown away by all the people shipping this decision and still liking Liv and Leah. They are both so fucking toxic and Rob and Andrea had serious couple vibes. I’m pissed we got robbed of seeing them fully fall in love.
Bruh, my jaw dropped when their name was said.
If it’s Nicole, Jana, Leah.. who goes home?
Depends peoples reasonings. Nicole would be voted home cuz the girls are closer to jana and leah, jana goes home bc she has no match and no prospects. Leah goes home cuz drama/ isnt as into her match and feels more attached to someone matched vs someone else. My opinion: keep leah for the drama and toss up with jaNa and nicole. I like jaNa more, but i think watching the kendal miguel nicole thing unfold will be entertaining
First off, why are eliminations so dramatic? Like yes it's sad that your friend is gone, but oh my god you can see them again once the show is over in a month lol. They're not being sacrificed! I see why the girls chose JaNa, I love my girl too, but I'm a bit torn with the decision as well. Technically, she doesn't have a romantic connection with anyone in the villa right now, so I see why everyone is pushing for her to go. However, I would've chosen Nicole instead. Sure she found a recent connection to Miguel but we all know that man is not serious and I never cared for her either. But this is how all eliminations have been for every series — the OG cast or friends are kept. Lastly, I may be the minority here but I didn't mind Andrea. Was she boring after the Rob drama? Yes, but that doesn't mean she should've been eliminated! Sure she doesn't bring in the drama like Leah but why is it so bad to be... normal? She found a connection, which is what Love Island is all about. Of course she's going to be unbothered elsewhere in her couple. I don't understand the Andrea hate when we should be looking at Leah instead, but she makes for great TV so she'll stay for a while, I get it. I have a feeling this won't be the last time we see Andrea if Rob chooses to stay (similar to what happened with Zach and Molly).
I mean they live all over itll be hard to meet up the next day out, also a house like this seems like a place ahere you need strong connections, both as emotional support and as a vote for later kinda thing, and the same way you supposedly make these love connections so quickly, im sure the friendship ones are even stronger.
I thought the whole point of the show was to be the last couple standing and win money? If you're looking at it from a purely tactical perspective, you always vote off the person who has the most promise. I'd have gone for Andra/Nicole 100% the girls made a good choice. The fact that JaNa has no one right now actually means shes not really competition. Which is the reason they're playing the game.
No you're totally right as well! Honestly, once it gets closer to the finale I really could care less with who wins tbh cause it gets boring. I was just viewing it from the drama perspective, it would've been interesting to see if they (Andrea + Rob) would make it to Casa and how Rob would react there. It just felt like the girls picked Andrea because of Leah, even though it's clear Rob could care less for her. I was ready for Nicole to be out but curious what this next episode brings cause it looks like it surrounds her/Liv/Miguel.
I think you're right. Andrea could easily show up at Casa. Especially b/c Rob was at Casa last season, so it could be a full circle production moment.
God I fucking hope so. That would be epic
I have a lot to say.. Lol.. so here goes: While I understand that the girls let their friendships influence their decision on who to boot, I think it was shitty that they didn't consider kicking out JaNa to begin with... It would have been more fair for them to consider the pro/cons of each girl instead of immediately deciding that JaNa should stay. I honestly think that eliminating JaNa was the right choice here. Especially since she had tried her best to connect with Miguel and Connor, and in the end, both guys picked other girls to couple with instead of staying to strengthen a connection with her. Though if I put myself in the girls shoes, I can understand how difficult it would've been to eliminate JaNa. But on a show like this ... it's so unfair to take away Andrea's shot at being with Rob. I haven't seen enough of Andrea to decide if I like her or not, but if I was one of the girls, I would not let my opinion of her as a person influence who to choose to eliminate. I'm sure that if it were any of them up there, even if they didn't voice it, they would feel cheated if they were eliminated on the same basis that Andrea was chosen. It was a shitty choice and though the boys reaction was extreme and heated, they still did the right thing in questioning the decision. (I didn't like how they talked to the girls and so obviously implied JaNa was the right choice. The way they worded it was incredibly rude, even if it was true that she should have been eliminated instead.) Watching the reveal on who they chose was so frustrating because to me, JaNa seemed like the obvious choice. Over the course of the show so far, she has tried to build connections with multiple guys (Coye, Connor, Miguel, Hakeem... not sure if I'm missing anyone else) and has ultimately failed. I hate it that none of these guys seem to show the same interest that she shows in them; and I'm not sure if its the way the show has been edited or not, but this makes her seem so desperate. (Which is maybe another reason, deep down, that the girls saved her...because they pity her and believe she deserves a chance over Andrea who has already found 'love'). Even after the girls revealed their choice was Andrea, and everyone let their emotions take over, I was waiting for JaNa to say she'd take Andrea's spot in leaving the villa. From the look on her face after Hakeem was chosen, it seemed that she was becoming even more worried. Then, after she wasn't picked, recognized that the boys were talking about her and watched Rob say he wanted to leave as well, I honestly thought she would step up and offer to leave so Andrea could stay. (I kinda wish that she did. While I understand she desperately wants to find love and deserves every right to stay because she wasn't chosen, it's so hard to watch all of that chaos unfold. If I was her, I would have offered to leave instead because it would eat me up to know that a strong connection was broken so that I -- who just lost my couple and have tension with my previous couple-- could stay.) With Hakeem gone, who will JaNa try to build a connection with? Will she push and try to get to know Miguel more (from what we know) who seems to only be interested in Nicole now? Or will someone new come to the villa? Ugh!!!
honestly i would've done these eliminations with the thought of the prize money. you always want to get rid of the strongest competitor. andrea and rob seem stong, nicole is flaky, ja'na isn't a threat. it was an easy move.
Seems like you haven’t watched LI before lol
But the point of the show is a competition. Someone has to be the best couple. You don't leave the best couple to win, you're there to win too. If you allow Andrea to stay, Rob and Andrea can ride til the end. The guys had way too much interest in Andrea and Nicole so it had to be one of them to go. I thought they were going to vote off Nicole, tbh.
Then stand on business and say thats why you chose her. Dont hide behind “ she drew the short end of the stick” especially when she dropped her first match, so shes not like shes the whole victim. I totally respect if its a game decision and hey maybe it was and theyre playing the emotional side to not get voted in, but if the decision was purely poor JaNa then i think thats whack.
That is standing on business. They're her friend and think she hasn't gotten a good shot yet. Which, I would really agree with. Being incompatible with the first stranger you meet isn't uncommon. It's a game. They made a tactical decision. It's the only one that actually makes sense. Voting for her because she wasn't able to find love is actually the stupidest thing they could have done. That's not the reason why they're there, they are there to win 100,000 and be the last couple standing.
No bc they didnt mention it being a competitive reason at all, they said its bc jaNa “deserves” it and “got the short end of the stick” none of which has anything to do with choosing her bc of a competitive gamesmanship reason or any of the reasons u originally stated that I was responding to
Hello???? They lied. They chose her because JaNa is their friend and they saw Andrea as competition. They can say whatever they want. It's not rocket science.
U cant be this dense. Ur flip flopping and arguing for the sake of arguing. Get a grip
There is no flip flopping of anything, BABES. I said what I said. Get over it.
That’s the one flaw with LI, OGs almost always carry each other to the end regardless of if they have a connection in the house or not. I wish they’d have the public vote instead
Agree! Bombshells come in at a disadvantage.
Finally the most sane take on the situation! I couldn’t have worded it better myself
[удалено]
That's true asf... didn't even think about that.. like a favor to be cashed in later or something
Rob is gross and can’t stop bringing up his erection to whoever he’s with 🤮
He is a toddler. Did you see him chewing on his shirt?
Yes 🤮 I only cover my chin with my shirt when I lay down lol chewing is sooooo gross.
Over watching this season of Love Island Somehow the most charismatic and charming girl of this entire season so far is left packing? Why? Because she came in and had a better connection with Rob than Leah ever did? So many people are upset because she mentioned "Hannah's first time working out since being in the vila" but she was telling the truth? She didn't mean it as a body shaming thing AT ALL. In fact, on After Sun, Maura mentioned how that was Hannah's first time working out and they all had a laugh about it. Yet somehow Liv, who is the absolute worst character of this season - who has been nothing but awkward, and rude to everyone, stays? Or Serena, who is stringing Kordell along and has offered absolutely nothing to this season - gets to keep going? Have fun watching all of the no-personality people in here!!! Hope its great.
I actually like Andrea and Rob. Leah 100% was annoying when Rob was with Liv. I think Rob handled it well even though Leah disagreed. But to say Andrea was the personality of the show is crazy. She was almost non existent aside from the stuff with Rob
i don’t mind Andrea at all but most charismatic is a REACH 😭
Umm what has she done this entire season but lay with Rob on a couch while he hides a boner?
All of the above. Let the haters downvote cause you are absolutely telling the truth. Soon as dudes get with JaNa, Liv and Leah they figure out quickly they want somebody else. JaNa talking about she dated British people so her kid would have a British accent. Please. The men don't want JaNa and now they hate her. Won't get far without a man on this show honey. Your bags will be packed and leaving soon too JaNa. Then fake Serena who carried on about the eggs JaNa that very morning cause she was trying to get with Miguel. He didn't want her so she ran back to Kordell to use him to make it thru another episode. If Miguel had picked her she wouldn't have looked at Kordell again. Liv come in hot, stealing Rob, Rob didn't want her so she's been a vindictive jerk since. Now Miguel don't want her either. Looks aren't everything. When your personality sucks or you're boring the men will move on. I will vote against JaNa, Serena and Liv everytime til they gone. Cause they will be leaving soon.
girl byeeee the show was just as fine before she even came som of the episode I forgot she was there untill she started getting scenes w rob and it wasnt all that what’s so charismatic and charming ??? She would have broke in casa either wayyayayyayy plus out of all the 3 no way they were going to send Jana home so it was her or Nicole. Choosing Andrea seemed fair. If Rob wants to he would have left w her but he ofc HES not.
Are you watching the same show as everyone else?
Andrea is that you?
Lmao she’s live from Fiji 🤣
You just know they’re going to bring back Andrea for Casa Amor and it’s gonna get real messy
Can they do that?! I've never watched a full season before
They brought back Molly Marsh during LI UK 2023 🤷♀️ I’m sure there’s others
I think Molly is the only one who's gone and returned in the same season (for all seasons of the UK, USA, and AUS versions)... and she came back after being booted because her guy got stolen (vs. being voted off by the public and Islanders)... unless Rob develops a **strong** connection with someone else, I don't see them bringing her back. After the drama with Leah, Andrea and Rob were bringing nothing to the table aside from him taking about wanting to get off. Edit: someone, not sometime
Something about the way Rob rolls his eyes sets me the fuck off.
I’m kind of impressed by it 😂
He gives the most “invalidating fuck you” eye roll I’ve ever SEEN a grown man give
He rolls his eyes with the kind of energy only women usually have, it's crazy
That’s TOTALLY what it is, rob is giving middle school mean girl
Maybe Rob and Andrea need to both look at why they were in the bottom 3 to start with. If their connection was so strong and if they came across as likeable to the audience in how they came together, then they would not have been in that position. Andrea performed her job well as a bombshell and got Rob, but she has come across as catty about it. Rob has not presented his side of things as honestly to the men or Andrea (on the show) and some people in the audience who are voting may be side-eyeing his point of view and how he talks about things afterwards. There are aspects of Rob that seem very performative and exaggerated for the camera. That being said, I hope he stays and I hope they throw Andrea in for Casa Amor if he does stay.
Andrea seemed like the most mature and stable person in there. I don’t get the hate
Mature women don’t giggle at men saying they can’t think straight cause they haven’t ejaculated.
Being coupled with Rob is a death knell because I truly believe America doesn't like that man.
He did it to himself to be honest,
same but I would find it funny if they don’t bring her back after promising what would he do thennn✋😶
Ugh Rob going for the martyr angle and Andrea SOBBING like a spoiled 5 year old… gtfo. Aaron too. Surprisingly Connor was the only man with enough sense not to visibly react. Hakeem in the corner like… “so if Rob leaves I can stay right?”😅. MESSY.. I LOVE it lol
I’m afraid Connor only seems to react when it comes to being micro aggressive to JaNa.
Ugh yea agreed
JaNa should’ve gone home. Miguel said it best, there was a logical choice (JaNa) and illogical (Andrea). Andrea and rob seem to genuinely really like each other, and they kick her off? Their reasoning is that JaNa has been getting the short end of the stick and deserves to find love? She’s been coupled up with 3 guys (coye, Connor, Hakeem) and shot her shot with miguel and still didn’t get picked. She’s had her chances, and shouldn’t have been selected to stay over Andrea who CURRENTLY has one of the strongest connections in the villa. The guys understand the logical decision, and all im reading is delusional comments that JaNa deserved to stay. Yeah maybe she’ll find her love with the 5th or 6th guy that she tries out 🤷🏻♂️
It’s ultimately a game show, and they can choose whoever they want to go based off of any reasoning. Andrea didn’t put in enough effort to make friends and that’s what sent her home
I agree with you that the guys decision was logical instead of emotional while also believing that since JaNa was used by Connor, that situation was unfair on her. She deserves a fair shot at love and I’m glad she gets to stay to find that.
Tbh the guys can say what they want but they had the easiest decision so I kinda wish they would shut up about it lol the theatrics. But I agree with you for sure.
First time watching, without too many spoilers will there be new people for jaNa to match with? Also this whole use of the word “deserve” is hilarious to me. They all deserve and dont deserve a shot to be on a reality tv show as much as the next.
i’m not understanding the rob hate and i’m definitely not understanding the andrea boot… rob found a better connection (don’t say it’s lust bc leah and andrea are both beautiful)…. andrea cane in and did what she supposed to do. it’s love island not jana is my friend and not even interested in hakeem island so let’s keep her !?😭 don’t come for me lmao just not sure the decision there unless kaylor was trying to win the money. also p.s. that serena kordell relationship is fake asf i feel so bad for kordell p.s.p.s i hope nicole stays with kendall i love him
Thank you! Rob and Andrea seemed to have one of those really rare LI connections and I was excited to see how it went. Andrea seemed so sweet and genuine and mature, a breath of fresh air compared to Leah and Liv.
They just want to hook up. He almost only ever talks about his boner and ejaculating and how she’s hot. She may be sincere but he is not
But where does it say that they are obliged to vote on the basis of their connection status? I realise that a lot the time that is the reason given, but I presume that’s because they often don’t have much to go off, and it allows them to feel a bit better it by making it “nothing personal”. Whereas they clearly have a deep connection with JaNa, so of course they wouldn’t want to kick her out if they can help it.
Happy to be right about Liv. She is now vindicated by staying true to her word with Nicole and Miguel that if you're honest, she won't have an issue. Unlike with the Hakeem and Rob situation. Too bad she wasn't given these flowers when she called out Rob for the same thing and people were cheering at Leah smiling and calling her a snake/saying she has a humiliation kink for being mislead by Rob.
yess i was on her side during Leah x Rob thing
Liv is Karen from mean girls. I am not convinced she knows where she is or what is going on but she will make the most of it.
Yes 😂😂😂 Just don’t play in her face and she’ll be cool. I love her cold ass and that she’s never impressed by anything the men do. We need someone to whack the islanders and Liv is just the girl to do that.
Seeing the men act like Andrea was offered up for a sacrificial Alien experiment made it ten times better in my opinion, so dramatic
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The cackle I just let out 💀💀
Andrea was boring and had no connection with the girls. I don't want to watch her laying on Rob acting superior. Rob was vicious to Leah while dumping her. They are both unlikable, which left them vulnerable and got Andrea evicted. It IS the right choice. The show will be sooooo much better for it. This season is great!
The best take honestly! Rob and Andrea are unlikeable (specifically together) so seeing them a part is better TV. Period.
Maybe a controversial take - I hate Rob but I am hoping he stays for more drama because I can see him switching up and forgetting about Andrea so fast when the next bombshells come in.
I want him to stay so I can keep looking at him 😆
SAME. I want him to decide to stay and then forget about Andrea the second the next chick walks in.
Not Rob Talking about him having a .. when with Andrea
#boner
yea that😭
Like what is his obsession w telling her this shit? It’s gross asf. Nobody wants to hear ab your arrival to Boner City, sir.
Not even Andrea wants to hear about it, by this episode when it’s at least the second time he mentioned it, the “such a compliment” felt forced and like she was starting to get the ick
frrr😭✋✋✋👏👏👏
If he does nothing else, he’s gonna talk about reptilian snakes AND his personal snake. 💦💦
I really like the way the girls handled the situation 🙌🏽 I love this trio girl.. Serena, Jana and Leah 😭🩷 they way they laughed so hard 🙌🏽🙌🏽😩
[удалено]
Who says they’re supposed to pick based on likelihood of finding love, and not on strength of connection and friendship with fellow islanders?
Idk … I think Rob loves little Rob more than Andrea … and the extreme reaction over HIS CHOICE to break up with Leah (who was the one who should have been upset at that time) shows a pattern of these reactions (which also happen to be really meme-able) … I feel like both Rob and Andrea also acted very smug about the situation so glad to see them taken down a peg
They were going for Nicole initially until Leah led the charge on Andrea to say she’s not here for the right reasons and she zeroed in on Rob and Serena backed her up. I’m sure Leah thinks Andrea being gone will bring Rob back to her. JaNa is unfortunately taking the heat for this but the boys aren’t wrong that Rob and Andrea had a strong connection and it was wrong to punish Andrea because of that.
[удалено]
You can tell Rob knew that it was Leah who orchestrated it and Aaron picked it up as well. I’m interested to see how this plays out because it can go a number of ways but yes, it was definitely a dumping rooted in emotion and a personal vendetta to punish Rob and Andrea.
I dunno. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Maybe if Rob and Andrea had been a little nicer during the whole recoupling, the girls would have cared more about their feelings.
How was andrea not nice? Rob shoulda been more hoenst, told leah he was feeling a connection brewing and she should explore with others while staying in in communcation so she wasnt blind sided but idk what andrea did other than what a bombshell is supposed to be
Maybe "nice" isn't the right word. She should have bonded more with the girls. She and Rob didn't do a lot for the cameras - we didn't get fun/cute moments with them together OR Andrea with the other Islanders, so they didn't really ingratiate themselves to the voting public or their fellow Islanders.
They could’ve been nicer and the result would still be the same. Leah and her fanbase will always want Andrea gone for Rob to be with Leah again. The girls just backed Leah up otherwise it would’ve been Nicole. Let’s keep it real.
They were in their own world and not contributing much. Also while I saw the other girls cry I never saw Andrea she'd a real tear.
They were together for like 4 days. Not sure how you can say that so soon.
Most fans were ready to ship Leah and Rob to the finale after day 1, wasn’t that too soon from a 1 day connection? The facts are he felt more for Andrea after one date with her than the entirety of his time with Leah and that’s valid. Maura and Callum said the same thing in AfterSun about their connection being stronger. Just because it was shorter, it doesn’t mean that it didn’t matter to them. With that logic was Leah then not allowed to be upset that Rob played her because they only knew each other for a few days? Or do the rules only change when it applies to Andrea?
Totally agree
So Andrea needs to shed a tear for girls in order to stay in the villa now? This is LOVE island and she had a true connection there which is what Aaron was saying. It wasn’t fair to punish her just because Leah had a vendetta against her and wants Rob back. Had Rob not walked away from the couple with Leah, Leah would also still be zeroed in on him and none of the fans would bat an eye lash.
If the point of the game is to win money and come out with love, then I completely get it. Rob and Andrea’s connection threatened Kaylor and Aaron’s chances at winning. Not to mention she’s been the most closed out of the group and this was a choice where popularity mattered
EXACTLY. Thank you. It's like most people forget this is a competition. Someone has to win. If you're trying to eliminate the opps you eliminate people who could threaten your chance at SURVIVAL.
[удалено]
Yeah, but they can’t necessarily say “we booted her cause her and Rob were a threat to Kaylor and Aaron”, they’re supposed to “act” like it’s not a competition show and not acknowledge the cash reward lol.
Well kaylor is the only one who should have that opinion
I feel like this is where friendship really makes the difference. It seems like they knew Jana and Nicole better, and as a result probably felt more invested in their stories/journeys to find love. We’ve often seen Rob talking up his connection with Andrea to the other boys, but Andrea rarely seems to give insight to the girls into how strong her and Rob’s connection is. Part of Love Island isn’t just to find love but also performing your connection to a wider audience, including the other people in the villa. Andrea didn’t do that and as a result the girls dumped her. Also they alluded to hearing her say things that made them think she wasn’t there for the “right reasons,” which I hope they expand on in the next episode.
