Is it just us or is this the most dramatic lead up to a series of Love Island, ever?
Firstly we didn't know who was entering the 2025 villa until, like, a day a go, which is wild because usually names are dropped weeks before the show stars. Secondly, not even Maya Jama had info on when she was heading out to Spain; the Love Island host was posting TikToks with not a clue about her flight date or time.
Then, a contestant was axed from the show before he even made it into the villa due to a previous indiscretion which no one really understands. Kyle Ashman has now spoken out about his removal from the dating show and it is all very dramatic.

Finally, Harry Cooksley found himself in hot water when someone claimed they were dating him despite him taking part in the dating show.
'He told me he was going to Bali and I genuinely thought we had a future together, but no. He is a huge manipulator and I’m not the only girl he’s done this to,' the girl in question told The Sun.
But now Harry has opened up about what really went down between him and the mystery women and something isn't quite adding up here...
'I've been dating for the last year. I've dated people leading up to the show, essentially,' he revealed, 'I haven't told anyone I’m going on the show. Like I say, it was my mum and a few of my closest friends.'

'No. I mean, it wasn’t like a dumping,' he went on, when asked if he was in a serious relationship, 'we dated, I told her I was going away for the summer and we left it there. That sounds terrible.'
She also added that other people had contacted her claiming that he was dating them too and this is all very messy indeed. But Harry is adamant that he is NOT a heartbreaker and outright denied such claims.
'That was terrible,' he reiterated, 'I definitely haven’t dumped anyone. Oh no.'
