Love Island's Liam Reardon reveals HUGE secret about that dance challenge and we're cringing

It's no secret that Love Island contestants can earn a fortune after leaving the villa, but during their time on the show they also receive weekly money. With Islanders having to take a large amount of time off work to take part in the show, many Love Island fans have been wondering how they continue to pay their bills and rent while they're in the villa.

Love Island star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has reportedly made a secret deal with a latecomer to the popular reality show to fake a relationship in order to “win”. The Turkish actress, 27, is said to have come up with a plan to try and ensure she keeps her place in the villa until newcomer James Price enters the show in the controversial Casa Amor twist.

Love Island's Tasha Ghouri has revealed that she knows newcomer Charlie Radnedge from outside the villa. As the girls got ready in the dressing room, Tasha said: "Girls, I recognise Charlie from Hinge [a dating app]," as a shocked Indiyah said: "No way!" 23 year old Tasha's head has been turned by real estate developer Charlie, 28, since his entrance into the villa a couple of days ago and, after Charlie selected her to join him in a hot tub for a date, she went on to admit to Andrew Le Page - who she's currently coupled up with - that their date went well. It was bad news for Andrew, 27, after the couple seemed to be going from strength to strength, even sharing a loved-up night in the Hideaway bedroom.

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's best friend has exclusively revealed the secret signal the Love Island star is sending her pals to show them she is missing them from inside the villa.The 27-year-old is currently looking to find romance after being unsuccessful with fellow contestants Davide Sanclimenti and Jay Younger. And her friend Arabella Ovenden has exclusively told OK! the way she knows the Turkish soap star is missing her and feeling homesick from Majorca. She told us: "We have this sign – if she ever plaits her hair that means that she misses me.

Love Island Season 7's runner-up Chloe Burrows has revealed exclusively to heat the REAL reason all Islanders have a sex code, because when are we not asking those BURNING questions you really want to know?We'd like to immediately retract our use of the word 'burning' in this story, given the topic at hand (insert 'manicure' joke, though). Sorry.During an interview for an upcoming episode of heat's Love Island: Under the Duvet YouTube series, we asked loose-lipped Chloe (we LOVE her for it) why the hell there's a sex code amongst the Islanders year after year.

Love Island is well and truly underway and with every series there come rumours that certain contestants are not there to find love and are primarily driven by the desire to win the £50k and maybe a PLT deal.This year's series has seen more bombshells in the first two weeks than we thought humanly possible and the drama is off the rails.First came Davide, the self titled "Italian Snack" who shook things up when he coupled with Gemma 'daughter of Michael' Owen, then came Afia Tonkmor and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, who stole Davide from Gemma (although Gemma was too fussed tbh).Things really got that bit more heated when in a shocking twist of fate Gemma's ex-boyfriend rugby player Jacques O’Neill joined the show.Perhaps the biggest shake up came yesterday when investment analyst Jay Younger, and rapper and model Remi Lambert joined the villa - and both made clear they were not there to make friends.Speaking exclusively to Heat on Under The Duvet, Chloe made clear that she was convinced that Jay is just in the villa for the money.

Good Morning Britain's Entertainment Editor Richard Arnold revealed that the show has a secret family connection to Love Island contestant Ekin-Su Cülcüloglu.The 52 year old made the revelation as he presented a clip of Ekin-Su acting quite animatedly in Turkish soap opera Kuzey Yildizi on Wednesday morning's show.  Richard informed hosts Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid that he’d received help in translating the footage from a GMB colleague working behind the scenes of GMB, who is actually quite closely related to Ekin-Su. “So we had that translated by one of our colleagues who turns out to be Ekin-Su’s cousin,” Richard said, surprising the co-presenters.
