He's only 23. Still has a lot of growing up to do.

I fail to see how cheating is a mistake :unsure: he's 23, I'm pretty sure people realise cheating is wrong a lot younger than that

I understand that. That's why I think it's better they broke up. The relationship was turning toxic.

I've done it myself when I was around his age. I was very immature myself. But then I grew up with age

No excuse for being a twat who uses women. 23 is not young either tbh, I could maybe take age as part excuse if he was like..17/18.

Am not sticking up for the guy here btw, as I said I dont watch it. However as someone who doesnt watch, it seems very odd to me that producers are giving counselling to people who are dumped, given how the show works, it encourages situations like this for gods sake.. If they really think that it can cause mental health issues, the right thing to do would be to change up how the show works, or take it off air totally surely..

She can fly home as it part of her job

Having said that, I cheated on my ex with my current husband :hehe: Technically. We were still living together, and I had tried to end the relationship but he wouldn't accept it, so technically we were together, but not really. I knew it was wrong, as does anyone who cheats. Even though my situation was only...half cheating as we were not together in any real sense, besides him desperately trying to cling on as I had told him to find someone where to live that was not my house :laugh:

Twat then robbed my ****ing house, he left but took everything of value with him :joker:

Anyway, yeah, anyone who cheats knows how wrong it is. To be a serial cheater and proud, just says you are a wanker who thinks very lowly of your partners tbh. A user. Why get into relationships if you are just going to cheat..there are loads of single people who just want sex..do that instead!

Two LI stars across 4 series killed themselves, and it seems the aftercare is to blame. Not to say producers are at fault, but it does seem like Love Island's producers don't prioritise mental health

Hmm, I wouldn't say its the aftercare, but the show and the setup itself tbh. Its brutal, the premise of it and how it plays out. Have only watched part of one series, last year with that Adam dude. It seemed..exploitative to me, playing with peoples emotions for 'good tv'. Mind, I would bet those who do watch it think differently, its easy to be dismissive of a TV show when you are not invested in it I guess.

As much as I feel for Amy...and as much as I feel for any of them who get dumped or mugged off...its the name of the show. They know what they signed up for. Don't go in there if you have been mugged off before and feel vulnerable..because the chances of it happening in the villa are quite high..and on NTV.
They all know what they are doing...they all say they have gone on there to find love...but they have also gone on there to up their profile and self exposure. So I really don't buy too much of it.

I was invested, it was a guilty pleasure (oops...) and I tried to watch again this year following the recent episodes but I just couldn't. As you said it's just harsh - there's a contestant in it called Amber that hasn't gotten support or help from the outside and she was being treated awfully be a guy who dumped her IMO (I'm sure just saying that may cause some controversy, but I just felt so uncomfortable with the way she was being treated)

Adam last year was abhorrent with the way he smirked at the girl he dumped being upset. I absolutely think the concept of the show is a bit... inhumane (signing up to possibly be dumped once, twice, or more times on national telly... really?) I only watched it because I liked some of the characters, not for their relationships

It became apparent to me they cared more for drama than feelings when they shown Dani that Jack's ex was put in the same house as him for days while she was separated from him

Of course. Similar to how noone on BB went in to win, it was always to find friends, or for the experience and that. You were a horrific person if you admitted you went in to win cash. Utter bull**** :laugh:

Amen /end

its been confirmed that she just went out for a chat with psychologists but is back now

He didnt make her do anything anymore than she made him fall for her by having her tits out the first night they went to bed together. Its two way street. They both pursued and courted each other.

I had given up on it by that stage, but that sounds awful. Seems they purposely tried to split them up then, for 'good tv'. I get that they want drama and such, I just find it..horrid. Even without the manufactured stuff, the whole premise of it just is bad to me :laugh: Especially if any of them genuinely do go in to 'find love'..which I doubt tbh.

There was a teitter storm of concern about the mental health of smy right before they did this.

Curtis honed in on Amy because of how vulnerable she is, he thought she would be a public fav,....the irony is after this she probably will be :laugh:

Is the aftercare really to blame and the show? They are upping up their aftercare which is good. With Mike he went on other shows such as Celebs go dating and he had the worse abuse and press from that show than he did on Love Island. Love Island isn't responsible for Celebs go dating aftercare but no one mentions other shows he's been on. They did need to up their aftercare though because the fans are super toxic, sending death threats and way more abuse (which isn't the shows fault they can't control them)

Yeah I can't watch it any more for that reason, it's all just too manufactured and at the expense of people's feelings :/
Oh no doubt fame is one of the biggest attractions, but I also don't doubt people find themselves falling for people while they're in there, not expecting themselves to, and I imagine it can really **** them over



Oh absolutely it's not the aftercare that's solely to blame, but the fact Sophie was only really known for LI2 and didn't do any shows after Love Island puts it into perspective, especially since no reality TV stars from other shows have killed themselves to my knowledge (although reality TV had definitely affected people based on how people have spoken out). In fact, I don't recall seeing Love Island's producers responding to either death :(

38 deaths is the count so far

I hope she's ok.

They need to send in a man that will love, respect, be loyal and treat her as a queen asap.

:rolleyes:

:clap1:

I agree with this tbh. I do hope Amy is ok though.

It was only a kiss and that was part of a challenge.

You can't MAKE someone fall for you they either do or they don't.

100% :wavey:

She's left for real this time: https://metro.co.uk/2019/07/08/love-...reak-10134153/

Omg the poor girl! :(

Probably because of what maura said to amy.

I bet they persuading her to go so Curtis stays

oh bless her, she should get lots of interviews and stuff out of it anyway and she is too good for him

Its literally not. It was because of Curtis’s behaviour and how you keep defending him is looking embarrasing

yes now he can stay, and most likely couple up with Maura

Gutted! She was one of my favourites.

I really wanted a new man to enter and sweep her off her feet.

That’s a shame, she did seem very insecure and fragile in the villa and if leaving makes her happy then that’s all that matters.

Maybe Maura flirting with him was just too much,gone right off Maura tbh, she pretends she cares for her so called 'friends' but all she seems to care about is herself and the desperation of her is embarrassing.

QUEEN Maura gets Curtis

Curtis. Period
