Love Island UK Episode 33 Recap 7/2/26
Over in Casa Amor, the boys got to know the six new girls they met earlier on Day 23. Simba chatted with Nevaeh and Mara, before ultimately deciding to share a bed with Nevaeh that night. Still, Nevaeh made Simba take it slow and made it very clear she was aware of what he did to Angelista back in the Villa. Kavan slept with Charleen, while Aidan hand-picked Martha – despite kissing Julia earlier in the episode. Lorenzo tried to make a move on Julia in bed, only to get rejected. Olivia and Finley slept together, as did Samraj and Mara. Sean, as expected, slept on his own.
Heading back to the Villa, the girls also sorted out their sleeping arrangements. Priya and Carlos chose to sleep together, while Yasmin and Tommy agreed to share a bed. None of the other girls slept with any of the new guys. The next morning, Mica, Jasmine and Angelista talked about how much they missed Samraj, Kavan and Simba. Jordon said he wasn’t going to waste his time getting to know every girl, though, and told Jasmine that he was all-in on her. Jasmine admitted he was her type, but that he arrived at a time when she was feeling strongly about Kavan. At the same time, she told Mica that she was overthinking the situation since she and Kavan are on a bit of a break.
Priya and Yasmin got to catch up with the boys they spent the night with. Carlos got to know Priya a little better, which she admitted came off as a bit much. Ellie and Lola had a debrief, too, talking about how they think they’ve found their matches in Finley and Sean. Even with the boys off in Casa, neither seem like they are going to make much of an effort with the fresh faces. Finely, meanwhile, shared a daybed and a few laughs with Olivia over in Casa. He asked her to kiss him on the cheek, but she went in for the lips. Kavan, on the other hand, went in for quite a few kisses with Charleen. Lorenzo and Julia also kissed after some joking around, while Simba and Mara kissed in the pool. Even Samraj got in on the action by kissing Martha.
Nevaeh pulled Simba for a chat and called him out for kissing Mara. What she was more upset about, however, was how Simba told the boys that she kept bringing up Angelista in bed the night before – which she did. Simba tried to get to the bottom of what Nevaeh heard from who and eventually apologized for making her feel bad, but she still stormed off in tears by the end of the conversation.
That night, Lorenzo and Ellie got texts that Casa and the Villa would be going head-to-head in a game of “Don’t Bottle It.” The islanders spun a giant bottle, and whoever it landed on had to do whatever was texted to them. Lorenzo beat Jasmine for the first point by giving the wildest kiss, while Ellie evened the score by besting Martha’s twerking skills. Samraj beat Lola in their bout, followed by Priya besting Nevaeh when they were tasked with kissing the youngest guy. There were a few more snogs and dances, but the drama really got going when Sean won a point and Lola didn’t. The main Villa still won the cocktail party prize to round out the night.
