Love Island: The Morning After

If you see any flares in the sky tonight, it's Sharon - she's trying to get rescued from friend island. Arielle and Kem are joined by Sam Thompson this morning - and by his own admission, he's not here for the love, he's here for the drama. So last night we had a couple of dates and a load of grafting... and it's all going to come to a head in the recoupling on Sunday night, and then we're going to have to say goodbye to one of our lovely girls. Another cliffhanger... grrrr. It's Saturday morning, so it's time to measure up the week's top grafters with Sideman in the JD Graft Off (but Sideman's been doing some grafting of his own this week...)We'll be back on Monday morning - remember to subscribe so you don't miss an episode. If you want to get involved, you can tweet us on #LoveIslandPodcast or you can email us on themorningafter@itv.com if you have a crush that you want us to shout out on our Crush Club or if you have a dilemma that you need Liv to solve on Liv Island. Faye said she was about as edgy as a

Well, hopefully the villa catering manager wasn't planning on making huevos rancheros for dinner. Arielle's away this morning - so Yasmin Evans is Kem's bombshell co-host for the day! We've got a new boy heading into the villa! Cue the girls: YOU'RE GOING ON A DATE! YOU'RE GOING ON A DATE! YOU'RE GOING ON A DATE! Make sure you tune in tonight to see how Daddy - oh, sorry - Danny gets on during his dates. There were a lot of very interesting chats last night... AJ has been making her mark on some of the boys. Are the OG girls rattled? Not sure... but Faye's nails are looking very well shaped. Also - is Laaron on the cards in the near future?! And Hugo has familyzoned Sharon. We know it's not a thing, but we're gonna make it a thing. Steff Todd is here for our Friday morning impression fix. Tbh, not sure we gave Yasmin enough warning about Kem's attempts. Brace yourselves. If you have a dilemma that you need Liv to solve, or if you have a crush that you want us to shout out in Crush Club - then log on to the in

It's like the old proverb goes: "One day you can literally be eating Special K with raspberries with someone and then they can just be gone"So, let's talk about last night. Brad and Lucinda had to make their difficult decision - and Brad left the villa alone. Cue lots of tears, snuggling up in a big hoodie and a very happy Nana Joyce. Then before we could catch our breath... amazing AJ was on her way into the villa. Reckon some heads are going to be turned? One thing's for sure, Faye is going to have some *very* well shaped nails before the evening is over. It's Throwback Thursday, so our redheaded bombshell Demi Jones has entered the chat! She's here to help Arielle and Kem to debrief last night's episode and then we head up into the Love Island attic to dust off some memories from her time in the Cape Town villa. And yes... we do discuss THAT fall. Remember, you can email us on themorningafter@itv.com if you want to join our Crush Club or if you have a dilemma that you need Liv Attwood to solve AND you can

Anyone else thinking about applying to nursing school after watching that episode?! What a day for Brad and Lucinda - they finally went on their first date (he wore his lovely dove shirt too!) but now they are going to have to make a heartbreaking decision... one of them will be leaving the villa. Whichever way it goes, it's going to be an emosh one tonight when we find out who will be leaving. Lovely Josh Jones is spending the morning with Arielle and Kem today to help us untwist ourselves after that mega-cliffhanger... Some of our Islanders are getting proper loved up though: Liberty and Jake are catching the feels, Chloe and Toby like each other (even though she was beating round the bush when she was telling him) and Millie and Liam got steamy in the hideaway. Meanwhile, on Friend Island Hugo is still putting a shift in as the villa's top waiter... he is good at it to be fair. Would deffo leave him a good tip. Also, we might be solving some of your dilemmas because we will be getting the ferry over to Liv

Can someone please tell Toby that a butter knife is not the most efficient tool for cutting a melon?Gorgeous Josh Smith joins Kem and Arielle on the podcast this morning to discuss last night's DISGOUSTANG episode. We were really sad to see Rachel leave the villa last night, but we had a juicy recoupling and we finally have quite a loved up villa... although there are still a few people in there who are participating in Friend Island. Roast dinners are officially cancelled after last night. We are not in the least bit surprised that Jake enjoyed that challenge so much... and sorry, we are going to talk about it in some detail. The gravy :(((((It's Tuesday - so we going be coupling you up this morning in our Crush Club! We really love playing cupid for you guys. Tomorrow, Liv Attwood's going to be here solving all your dilemmas - it could be friendships, love, work or maybe you can’t decide what to have for dinner... whatever it is, email us on themorningafter@itv.com. GIE IT LALDY!!!

Hmmm... could anyone tell if any of the girls fancy Teddy? Working out how this recoupling is going to go is basically like trying to solve a rubix cube blindfolded. It's basically going to be down to which boy chooses first... and one of our lovely girls will be going home :( Oh villa gods, why must you be so very crueeeeeel?! So we had speed dates, some sexy snogs and a sweaty sleep - things are getting interesting... so Poppy Jay is here with Kem and Arielle for our morning debrief, and she does not hold back - we love to see it. We all need a big hug this morning don't we? Well - good news, because Mr Cuddles and Hugs himself is here to chat about his time in the villa. Tomorrow morning, we will be coupling you up in real life on our Crush Club - so if there's someone special that you have your eye on (or if you have a fit PE teacher) you can email us on themorningafter@itv.com. Also, make sure you keep tweeting us on #LoveIslandPodcast and we could read your tweets out right here on the podcast. Reckon a

Do you think Millie isn't wearing any knickers so she can avoid skidders? Yinka Bokinni has got up specially on a Saturday morning to debrief last night's episode with us - and we're glad she's here because a lot went down. The Naughty Trio (aka Lucinda, Chloe and Millie) have been mixing things up in the villa... we had awkward chats, sexy chats and quite a few snogs last night. It's all shaping up to be a veeeeery interesting recoupling - and that's before we even consider the fact that TEDDY is coming into the villa. Is it hot in here?! We've seen some SERIOUS grafting this week - everything from oat milk to bed making, so Sideman is here to help us crown this week's Top Grafter in the JD Graft Off. Arielle won last week, so can Kem come in this week with an equaliser? We will be back on Monday morning - but if you're missing us until then, you can get in touch with us using themorningafter@itv.com if you have a crush that you want us to ask out on our Crush Club, or if you have a problem that needs solvin

Oh, so NOW it's okay to want to sleep with a Teddy in your bed?! Oops... Arielle might have jinxed it yesterday - that villa is turning into a bit of a heartbreak hotel. We're so glad Sonny Jay is here this morning to cheer us all up... guys, can't we go back to last week when everyone was all loved up? Let's catch you up: Brad and Lucinda are cracking on, Rachel is sad her herself but happy for them, Toby's head has been thoroughly turned in Chloe's direction leaving Kaz out on her own, Jiberty had a bit of a wobble when Millie came in but it looks like things will be okay and no-one picked Hugo in the challenge :( BUT don't worry because there's a fit boy about to go into that villa... HELLO TEDDY! Make sure you're watching tonight so see how he shakes things up.And of course, it's Friday morning so Steff Todd is here! Kem has been working on an impression. He's *almost* there with it...If you want to get involved (which, of course, you do) - tweet us using #LoveIslandPodcast, or you can email us on themorn

Would be quite weird if you were in a restaurant and the chef just came down to eat with you. But hey, if the girls enjoyed it then good for them. It looks like it's going to be the end of Sha-aaron. We're feeling sad for her, but we're secretly kinda glad that we might not need to use that portmanteau anymore. Everything is feeling a liiiiiitle bit unsettled in that villa (to say the least) Millie and Lucinda have been on some dinner dates and things got steamy *ahem* Liam and Millie *ahem*. Some of the girls are a little bit rattled to say the least... It's Throwback Thursday here on The Morning After - so Jess and Dom are here to take a trip down memory lane... we're so excited to catch up with them (they've been busy!) AND we have an excuse to play a clip of Kem rapping. Keep getting in touch using #LoveIslandPodcast and we might read your tweets out here on the podcast. You can also email us on themorningafter@itv.com if you want to join our Crush Club or if you have a problem that you need Liv to solve.

Never before has an MMS caused so much chaos. Lewys Ball is here this morning! It's his fourth time on the podcast - it's almost the longest relationship that any of us have ever been in. The girls went to bottomless brunch, and surprisingly none of them had a bottomless hunch that there were going to be two bombshells in the villa waiting for them when they returned... Lucinda and Millie are smoking hot and it looks like they might have piqued some of boys' interest. Anyone order scrambled heads for breakfast?Hugo had a barney with some of the girls over his answers in 'Knowing Me, Knowing You'. Nobody wants to see our islanders upset, but they managed to patch things up in the end. Shame that in the preview for tonight's episode we have seen some tears from Rachel - guess we're just going to have to tune in tonight to fine out... Weirdly, we've had another anonymous problem sent in from someone in Majorca, luckily our resident agony aunt Olivia Attwood drops in to solve all of your life dilemmas - so if you

Can we have a moment for whoever is doing the laundry in the villa? Nobody needs to be seeing Jake's skidders :( Okay, so basically the whole villa is in chaos. Luckily, Nick Grimshaw is here for The Morning After debrief with Arielle and Kem!How did we go from being so loved up to basically being ick-city? Liam and Faye disagreed over cats, Toby hasn't been cuddling Kaz, Liberty is worried that she hasn't been giving the other boys enough of a chance, Rachel's crying over Brad AND Aaron doesn't like Sharon's future car choice. Are we getting to a point where Hoey are the villa's power couple?!Tonight - we're going to see what happened to make Hugo cry and there are two new girls heading into the villa! Chaos. Absolute chaos. It's that time of the week where Kem and Arielle turn into the Turkish Hitch and the Scottish Paddy Mcguiness - it's Crush Club! If you want us to ask out your crush, you can email us on themorningafter@itv.com (and while you're there, send us your dilemmas and Liv will solve them for yo

He's coming home! (but we don't know who because there was a cruel cliffhanger) Queen of the Twitter TL Bolu Babalola is here this morning to discuss everything that went down on Rachel's first day in the villa. She had a fun day, didn't she? AND Shannon is here to give us the downlow on her short-but-sweet time in the villa. Never before has someone managed to be so iconic in just 48 hours. So - who's Rachel going to choose? Brad told Rachel she was his type, but she said that she thought Chuggs might be more trustworthy. Poor thing, having two fit boys graft their wee socks off for her, really feeling for her today. Weirdly, halfway through the show last night we got a preview of the new Bond film! Oh, wait... was that the challenge? RIGHT, makes more sense. Those tuxedo thongs didn't really seem practical for international espionage. Remember to email us on themorningafter@itv.com if you have a crush that you want us to ask out on our Crush Club or if you have a life dilemma that you need Liv to solve. So,

Getting pulled for a chat by Chuggs is a bit like jury duty - basically, at some point we're all going to have to do it, and it might be a bit inconvenient but at the end of the day we should all do our bit. Rachel's entrance has to be one of the most iconic bombshell entrances of all time, right? What an end to the first week! Bake Off legend, Twitter king and all round national treasure Michael Chakraverty is here this morning to talk about last night's episode We've had our first recoupling of the series - and it's left two of our boys single. Brad and Chuggs are going to have to put some serious WORK in on Sunday night to keep their places in the villa. Sideman is here as our resident Graftologist. He will be in your ears every Saturday morning to crown the week's JD Top Grafter. There is some tough competition... but there can only be one winner. So, do you think you're going to be able to cope without us tomorrow morning? Well.. you're going to have to. We will be back on Monday morning - so in the mean

It’s a good thing Jake knows loads of brick layers because we might need to construct a wee platform to help some of our islanders get up to Liam’s level. 6 foot 6 eh?! We’ve had two lovely boys arrive at the villa - so we’ve roped in our gorgeous friend Scarlett Moffatt to chat about how we think they’re going to get along with the girls… and how the boys might be feeling about that. Rattled, anyone? And feast your ears on this - Steff Todd is here with her first impressions (get it?) She’s going to teach Kem a thing or two about how to do impersonations. Steff will be here every Friday morning - so make sure you’re subscribed so you can see how he’s getting on… expectations are high. Get out your snog log because we’ve had our first two non-game snogs of the series! Followed by two incidents: one with foundation and one with a fart *so romantic*If you want to get involved - tweet us! Use #LoveIslandPodcast and we might read your hot take on the podcast. You can also let us know your dilemmas and you can jo

We’re going to have to get on the phone to the finance department because Jake is going to rack up a hefty water bill in the villa if he keeps having those boujis baths. That dumping was SAVAGE - it happened almost as fast as one of Brad’s ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ - er, encounters. We did not expect to be saying goodbye to Shannon so soon - and neither did any of the Islanders. Nobody is safe in that villa..It’s Throwback Thursday! Eva and Nas, our series six sweethearts are here to reminisce about their sunny days in South Africa and let us know what they think about our new Islanders. And… we’re going to have to talk about THAT conversation between Brad and Faye. Reckon they’re going to stay coupled up? Hm, maybe not. We’ll have to find out tonight at 9pm. It’s not all doom and gloom though, Toby and Kaz went on a super sweet date, then Jake and Liberty got into some *positions* during the game of beer pong. Just a warning - this episode contains some of Kem’s accents. But don’t worry, we’ve decided to ge

It’s coming home (and by it’s we mean drama, and by home we mean into the villa) Now, it wouldn’t be Love Island without a cliffhanger - but that one last night was FILTHY. Chloe spent the day pulling the boys for chats because at this point everything is to play for… but it’s still scrambling a few heads. We’ll find out tonight who she’s going to choose to couple up with and by the looks of things, there are going to be a few consequences. Eek. Our bestie Lauren Mahon joins Kem and Arielle on the podcast this morning to chat about Chloe’s date with 5 guys, those saucy confessions and all those snogs. And that’s not all - our resident agony aunt Olivia Attwood is here for our first ever trip to Liv Island. If you need Liv to answer any of your dilemmas - email us on themorningafter@itv.com and she will sort you right out. Remember, you can now watch us on ITV Hub every day - but brace yourself, even though it’s early in the morning - we’re super fit. Err… can anyone give us directions to Hammond Road?

Okay - time to play dares… we’ll go first. Okay, our dare is to spend 30 minutes making the ultimate Love Island debrief podcast. Too easy. Love Island is back. The Morning After is back. Kem and Arielle are back. What more could you want? Well… maybe some soap for your eyes after having to watch all of that *sucking*. Our gorgeous new islanders have landed in the villa (it’s good to be home, eh?) so we run through who coupled up with who and how we think they are going to get on. Spoiler alert: heads are deffo going to turn. And roll out the red carpet - because our reigning champions Finn and Paige have joined us to give us their lowdown on the new islanders, and we take a little trip down memory lane. Tomorrow, bombshell Chloe will be dropping into the villa to stir things RIGHT up. Make sure you’re watching on ITV2 at 9pm. If you want to join our Crush Club, or if you have a dilemma that you need Liv to solve - email us on themorningafter@itv.com. We’re basically going to sort your entire life out. Subscr

Did you miss us? Oh, we know you did... we missed you, too. We're back after an agonisingly long break with a brand new series of Love Island: The Morning After and we have a fresh batch of Islanders who are about to make their way into that villa. Let's take a look at them to see who we're shipping this series and who's going to be ripping who a new... don't ask. Couple up with Arielle Free and Kem Cetinay for a summer of amazing guests, all the gossip, villa exclusives and juicy chats with dumped Islanders on the official Love Island podcast. Oh, and we have news... our little podcast family is growing. Every week you will be able to listen to the brilliant comedian Steff Todd, who might teach Kem a thing or two about impressions and Olivia Attwood, who is going to be our very own podcast agony aunt. We want to hear from you, so send us your crushes for Crush Club, send us your dilemmas, and just chat to us on themorningafter@itv.com.This series, for the first time ever, you will be able to see us (you luck

ALL HAIL PAIGE AND FINN - LOVE ISLAND SERIES 6 CHAMPIONS!What do you think they're going to do for their first date in the outside world? Maybe Ten Pinn Bowling? Mike and Priscilla are here to celebrate the final with Kem and Arielle. We're so happy to see them and they are totally loved up. We ask Mike about his mad moves and Priscilla spills the beans about their strong matching outfit game. It's time for the final debrief - we talk prom, declarations of love and tangoes. It was all very cute, and there wasn't a dry eye in the house.MOVE OVER THE OSCARS, it's time for the world's most prestigious awards: The Morning After Awards! We run down the top gong-worthy moments from this series.Thank you so much for spending your mornings with us for the last 6 weeks - you absolutely lovely lot. You've really worn our hearts like a fleece. Congratulations once again to the happy couple, Pinn and Faige.

We just had a look at Ched's Mum and Dad's schedule, turns out they had the Love Island Villa at 6 and then Cape Town Fashion Week at 7. Kem and Arielle are joined by Vick Hope this morning (it's now a tradition that she comes on for the parents episode) AND they have a quartet of lovely Islanders for you... Callum, Molly, Natalia and Jamie are all here! We get the scoop about villa life and future plans from our Islanders. Is there any hope for Jamie and Natalia? And do Callum and Molly really pop each other's spots? So close and yet so far... Priscilla and Mike have been dumped just before the final. We caught up with them after they left the villa to see how they were feeling. Can you believe that there are now no OG boys left? HOW CUTE WERE EVERYONE'S FAMILIES?! It was wholesome af - but it sounds like quite a few of the Mums and Dads were slightly shocked by some of the less than wholesome revelations from the breakfast club. So. We did it. Last night we voted for the couple that we want to win on the Lo
