Love Island fans rejoice as Laura Whitmore confirms baby challenge will happen

Love Island fans are delighted after Laura Whitmore confirmed the baby challenge will take place in a matter of days.

The hilarious task sees the remaining couples tasked with taking care of a realistic doll, which cries and needs feeding and changing, to see how they cope as parents together.

During Sunday's episode of Love Island: Aftersun, host Laura spoke to former Islander Chris Hughes about his time on the reality show five years ago.

"We're about to head into the last week, it's a big one, you know that... what's it like to get to the last week," Laura said.

"And I can exclusively reveal that the baby challenge is back!" she continued, before adding: "It's a huge moment. Just how difficult is it?"

Chris replied: "Oh it's brutal, but to be fair I actually had a genuine connection with Cash and that was the thing, and I have still got him.

"The mad, weird thing is is he's at my parent's house, I remember I stole Cash, I wasn't meant to but I thought, 'there's no way I'm letting this baby go back into production'," Chris admitted as Laura laughed.

Love Island fans were so happy to hear that they'd get to see the current Islanders turn their hand to parenting.

One viewer tweeted: "I cannot wait for the baby challenge this year!!!! #LoveIsland."

Another posted: "yayyy the baby challenge is this week #LoveIsland #Loveislandaftersun," while a third added: "i can’t wait to see ekin su and davide doing the baby challenge #LoveIsland."

Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub.
