It’s taken three weeks to arrive, but we’ve finally got it: the first surprise recoupling of the season. Faced with a line-up of bachelors, two of whom – Davide and Remi – are single, new girl Danica instead chooses to couple up with Luca, longtime lover (in Love Island terms, at least) of Gemma. Danica’s decision was always going to ruffle some feathers, but it’s not Gemma but Luca himself who angrily huffs and puffs at having to spend the night away from his beloved.
While the sound team do their best to tease out even a little suspense as Ikenna and new boy Remi stand by the firepit waiting to be selected by Indiyah, there was only ever one way this elimination was going to end – and that’s with Remi packing his bags and unceremoniously leaving the villa.
