I don't think he was ever disliked but he was quite a "background" character while he was with Jess. He's become more popular/visible because he became the new Nas when the public went off Nas as "the nice guy" for dumping Demi.

...I absolutely can’t see any ‘desperate’ at all, just circumstances in how their previous couplings have evolved...(...or not evolved..)...which means that this is the first time they’re both able to explore any possibilities...

He's more of a laid back, man's man, rather than an in your face womaniser, who has no shame or control button.

He seems to be in that "between phase" where (some) guys learn that it's not all about a "pick up game" and that women aren't a puzzle that needs solving, but he hasn't quite figured out how to be comfortable conversing/bantering with them in a natural way like he would with his male mates, so he comes off as awkward. He's young yet though, he'll figure out that they're just people and relax as he gets older.

Personally I think Shaughna's interest in Luke M is mainly down to her being sick of getting hurt (and in her own words, embarrassed) and she sees Luke as being nice and a "safe" choice. That's not to say she's not now attracted to him... that might just be WHY she's finding herself drawn to him. Her priorities in what she's looking for have shifted.

Shaughna likes to be the boss, the dominator in a relationship, she can be that with Luke, this new guy has far too much to say for himself, for Shaughna's liking.

Shaughna hasn't really had the time to be interested in others because she was with Callum for about 4 weeks and this past week she was dealing with it and you can't really get over someone that quickly. Since Jamie got her on the date, she started to be ready to date again so all these new feelings are coming to her. She's just deciding what she wants There's no signs she will act on it though.

I’m pretty sure she will go and get LukeM now she knows the public want them to pair up .. and win .

so funny how quickly the tide turns, when Jamie came in Demi was in the driving seat, now she is crying about losing him

You are right...from Shaughnas perspective...but don't think that's what Luke wants..but who knows

How does she know the public want them to pair up...

I feel for Luke he is just being used time after time...hopefully Demi realises now that she really likes him and gets him back.

It was one of the headlines in last night's challenge. I think she had said she liked him before that too though

Oh I missed that.....that makes it more transparent than ever...

….not judging by the girls reactions..Paige is her best friend and she had no idea and Demi and Sianesse are equally as shocked...

Yeah, literally only minutes before - she was speaking to Mike before the challenge. Obviously it has not been long as like you said it came as a shock to Paige

Just as her last option became a no go...

She did indeed. She also said she would get with Luke M if she wasn't with Callum She was with Callum for most of her stay and has been getting over him so she didn't really have the chance to explore it, she would be slated if she explored it minutes after being dumped.. she can't win

I don't think anyone wants to win that much the prize fund is low and the finalists will make a lot more than that and they all know it

Paige explained last night though that the signs were there but maybe missed

Yeah! it's just simple really. She's single so she will get new feelings for others. She might want someone like Luke M so that's probably why there's feelings there but it might not work.

even some pre finals make more than 25/50k. That's nothing to them really. Win or lose they all will be richer.

They need to up the prize fund.

Yh definitely. I don’t think anyone would keep all the money instead of splitting until the prize fund goes up a bit. Not really worth it for an extra 25k I’d rather fancy my chances on The Chase tbh.

yeah that will never happen unfortunately, the only time it could have happened was during series 1-3. I don't think 3 had any idea how big Love Island became and they would make more than 25k post show. 4-6 however knew their lives will be changed and will earn a lot of money post show so 25k/50k is nothing to them. Molly-Mae got called desperate late year and got called Money-Mae, she's still with Tommy and she's a millionaire now so she didn't need to win

To be honest I can see luke with demi or Shaugnah. I said as much prior to him and demi getting together. I think Shaugnah and luke are well suited for one another. Lukes needs an agressive woman and she needs someone she has control with. Imo they work as a couple emotionally speaking. The only question is if there is a physical attraction there.
I have a feeling the new boy likes her too but is gonna have to settle on his 2nd choice, which if it turns out to be molly that would be hysterical.
How funmy would it be if the next coupling jamie chose molly, and Luke chose demi, leaving callum to choose between natalia and Shaugnah? It would be an epic final week. I think molly is approachable and has a maturity about her that he might find appealing.
