You know that the Great British Summer has officially arrived when Maya Jama leads a new set of lusty, love-hungry, Instagram-famous faces to the villa in Mallorca. There they lounge around in their smallest swimsuits and, with any luck and plenty of sharking, find their perfect partner thanks to "Love Island U.K.".
As Jama says: "At its core, ["Love Island" is] about human behavior. Attraction, rejection ego, vulnerability — it's all there, just heightened". What she misses out, of course, is the impact of the show's devious producers, who will inevitably be throwing up more twists, turns, bombshells and games of 'Snog, Marry, Pie' to keep the islanders on their toes. Episodes 1-14 are available to watch now.
As heads turn, eyes rove and tensions build to a delicious simmer, the weekend saw things boil over when the islanders had to decide which couple had the weakest connection. Little did anybody know, the chosen pair would soon see themselves packing their back as season 13's latest dumpees. You'll get no spoilers here, but you can find out who has exited at the bottom of this article.
But there's nothing like a kissing competition to ease the memories. It should be an easy one for Tommy — he's been getting plenty of practice with both Ellie and Namibia...
With this year's series starting with a bang, what will the next shock be? You can see a full list of islanders at the bottom of this article (together with those who have already left) and here's everything you need to watch "Love Island U.K." season 13 online and stream episodes from wherever you are in the world for FREE!
