What happened to Harrison Solomon on Love Island 2025?

Harrison Solomon entered the Love Island 2025 villa as a bombshell on day 8 and left of his own accord on day 38, after spending a month in Majorca.

He was involved in one of the most dramatic love triangles in Love Island history, involving Toni and Casa Amor bombshell, Lauren.

Initially coupled up with Toni, Harrison flirted with Helena Ford but stayed with Toni until Casa Amor, where he connected quickly with Lauren. He brought Lauren back to the main villa, which triggered tension as he was caught between the two bombshells (despite Toni now being with Cach Mirjah Mercer).

The emotional strain peaked when Harrison – despite sleeping with Lauren in the villa – secretly asked Toni to recouple with him. Toni’s choice to pick Harrison led to heartbreak for both Lauren and Cach.

Following several emotionally charged days and tense interactions, Harrison decided to quit the villa to be with Lauren.

He was widely criticised for 'manipulating' Toni after sleeping with Lauren, then for recoupling with Toni without being honest about his actions. This led to public outrage on social media and accusations of him causing emotional distress to both women.

Additionally, Women's Aid publicly condemned the behaviour of several men on the show, including Harrison, as perpetuating misogyny and disrespecting boundaries. The situation attracted over 1,000 Ofcom complaints.
