Love Island’s Luca Bish finally addresses rumours Mitchel Taylor is his ‘long lost twin’

As week three in the Love Island villa drew to a close on Friday, the Island couples were certainly feeling closer than ever as they turned up the heat with more than a few steamy make-out sessions. Yet while fans at home certainly didn’t begrudge the stars for finding romance and enjoying a dreamy summer fling, many viewers could’ve done without the high definition sound effects picked up by the cast’s microphones during their sustained kisses! The first couple to fall victim to the microphone’s sensitivity were Whitney Adebayo and Mehdi Edno, who enjoyed a reconciliatory kiss after having patched things up over their previous row on Thursday, when Mehdi revealed he wanted to get to know other Islanders.

There was more drama afoot in the Love Island villa on Thursday, as the relationships between the Islanders were put to the test as part of a shocking re-coupling, just one day on since the arrival of two stunning new bombshells. Prior to the re-coupling, tensions in the villa were already running high, after a game of Never Have I Ever took a heated turn when the Islanders turned on Zachariah Noble after he confessed he had cheated in the past.

Things certainly started heating up in the Love Island villa last night, as the most recent instalment saw lovebirds Scott van-der-Sluis and Catherine Agbaje took their relationship to the next level with some tonsil tennis! The pairing - who have been coupled up together since Sunday night's episode - came together on the terrace at the end of the episode to debrief, following an emotional day which saw new bombshells Mal Nicol and Montel McKenzie welcomed into the villa. But - whilst most fans of the show were watching adoringly as Scott and Catherine moved forward in their relationship, some fans were left baffled after realising that the footballer pro was wearing a thick-linked gilet in the upwards-of-thirty-degrees Spanish heat.

This week on Love Island , bombshell Leah Taylor was reduced to tears after Sammy Root branded her as a 'test' in his relationship with Jess Harding, sparking conversations online about the role of the bombshell in the Love Island villa. The battle between the OG Islanders and the bombshells happens every season, with iconic bombshells such as Megan Barton-Hanson and Molly-Mae Hague sent in to shake things up and try to make coupled-up Islander’s heads turn.

With week three in the Love Island villa now in full swing, the Islanders were once again pulled from their comfort zones on Tuesday night’s episode, when a surprise appearance from Maya Jama saw the couples asked to decide who they felt was the least compatible at this stage of the competition. In a further twist, the Islanders were later summoned to the fire-pit where they would be required to reveal their decision to the whole villa, with more than a few tensions being raised among previously solid friendships as a result of the brutal decision making.

Whilst it would be completely normal to assume contestants on Love Island are looking for their idea love match, this wasn't lthe case for one of last year's favourites, Luca Bish. Speaking to OK! exclusively, the 24 year old told us that he "didn't go there for a swim and to fall in love." Every year thousands of singletons around the country apply for a place in the villa in the hope of finding the one, but as the ITVX show has grown in popularity, some viewers have questioned whether certain contestants are searching for a mega-bucks clothing line deal, or a boost in social media numbers, rather than a romantic soulmate.

Last year's Love Island contestant, Luca Bish, chatted exclusively with OK! to spill the secrets behind why life at the villa is so special. And aside from love blossoming with Gemma Owen, bromance with Jacques O'Neill and all the usual island drama, there was a few things that made his time at the villa even better.

Twelve months after setting foot in the Love Island villa, Luca Bish describes the past year as a “whirlwind”. From working with Scott Disick’s brand Talentless to splitting from his girlfriend Gemma Owen, the former fishmonger, 23, has plenty to reflect on when we catch up with him. It’s safe to say Luca didn’t have an easy ride on the ITV2 dating show.

Last year's Love Island finalist Luca Bish has opened up on his motives going into the villa. Luca, who was partnered with Michael Owen's daughter Gemma Owen for most of the duration of his time on the Island, told OK! he didn't go in there "for a swim and to fall in love" but instead decided to take part for the "experience on the whole." “If I found love then that was a bonus and if I came out with a load of followers and opportunities then obviously that’s a bonus too," the 23 year old former fishmonger said.

Eva Zapico and Nas Majeed have sparked engagement rumours following a getaway to Greece.The couple, who met on season six of Love Island, appeared to be just as loved-up as ever as they posed for romantic holiday photographs. Sharing a carousel of sun-soaked snaps with his 428k followers on Instagram, Nas, 26, captioned the post: "With love from Greece."  Eagle eyed fans were quick to notice that in the first photograph where Eva, 24, snuggled into Nas, she flashed a gold ring on her engagement finger.

Love Island is no stranger to opinions, particularly from those who have experienced the show firsthand.The current summer series is delivering more drama than ever, with conflicts arising left and right within just the second week. Since the start of season 10, former Islanders have taken to social media and podcasts to express their views on the latest batch of Islanders.

While Molly Marsh is currently stirring up chaos in the Love Island villa, viewers at home have quickly noticed her striking resemblance to another iconic contestant: Molly-Mae. Molly Marsh seems to have drawn inspiration from the Love Island hall of fame, replicating not only Molly-Mae's fashion sense but also her facial expressions and dating tactics while inside the villa. Just as Molly-Mae was caught up in a tense love triangle between Anton Danyluk and now-boyfriend Tommy Fury, Molly is also currently caught up in a love triangle with fellow Islanders Zachariah Noble and Mitchel Taylor who have both been vying for Molly Marsh's attention since the start of the show.

Molly Marsh has made quite a splash since entering the Love Island villa, currently caught up in a love triangle with fellow Islanders Zachariah Noble and Mitchel Taylor who have both been vying for Molly Marsh's attention since the start of the show. However, prior to entering the villa, Molly already had a substantial social media following, particularly on TikTok, which has opened doors for her as an influencer, including the one to the winter Love Island 2023 villa in South Africa.

From Dani Dyer to Gemma Owen, Jack Keating to Molly Marsh, nepo babies are not uncommon when it comes to the Love Island villa. Islanders used to keep their famous family ties under wraps when they first entered the villa.

Former Islander Luca Bish has dished out some Love Island secrets, including the “telltale” sign that indicated someone was about to get a text. Shouting “I got a text” has become one of the most used phrases in Love Island and, in an exclusive chat with OK! for our TikTok, Luca said as an Islander “You soon cotton on” to when someone is about to receive a text and shout the iconic phrase.The islander revealed: “With the text, you soon cotton on when you think there’s gonna be one.” Dishing out secrets, he said: “Someone goes into the villa, goes to the toilet, or go put some eyeliner on, or something like that just in the middle of the day, random little plod in there and come out with a phone.

Tyrique Hyde shares that he's made a decision in tonight's Love Island sneak peek. Gathering the boys around him, he announces that he's made his decision between Leah Taylor and Ella Thomas, as she says: "I just wanna say what I need to say… everything in the air, clean this mess up, that’s what I’m on.” Later on, he seizes his opportunity and seeks out both Leah and Ella to let them know where his head is at.

Just one day on since making her debut in the Love Island villa, new bombshell Leah Taylor has already been making a name for herself among her fellow contestants, after sensationally re-coupling with Tyrique Hyde at the end of Tuesday night’s episode. Hailing from Manchester, the 27 year old blonde stunner quickly caused chaos among the couples following her arrival, as she stole Tyrique from fellow islander Ella Thomas, who he had previously been coupled up with.

Since arriving in the Love Island villa last week, it’s safe to say Mitchel Taylor has captured the attention of many viewers at home, particularly in light to his attitude towards Molly Marsh. But while the 26 year old Yorkshire based islander may have divided opinion on who he should be coupled up with, he has still established a firm fanbase among viewers at home.

Soon after bombshell Leah Taylor entered the Love Island villa on Monday night Molly Marsh revealed that she already knew her. The new arrivals sent shockwaves through the villa as the boys were chosen for dates and the girls eagerly watched on from the balcony to spy on their new competition. Molly was one of the Islanders who was left feeling a little frantic after the arrival of Leah and fellow bombshell Charlotte Sumner as Mitchel Taylor and Zachariah Noble were both chosen for dates.
