LOVE ISLAND TONIGHT: MONDAY 26th JUNE 2023

WHITNEY QUESTIONS MEHDI’S MOVES DURING THE HEART RATE CHALLENGE

The Heart Rate Challenge certainly got pulses racing, with the Islanders quick to debrief following the night's events.

Mehdi’s decision to kiss four girls during the challenge hasn’t gone down well with Whitney.

Speaking among the group, Whitney turns to Mehdi and asks: “Why are you kissing everyone?”

As Whitney and Mehdi catch-up in private, Whitney says: “How can you not gauge emotional awareness? Every single boy kissed the one they are most interested in.”

Will the two be able to clear the air? Or has the Heart Rate Challenge left the couple questioning more than just their dance moves?

TYRIQUE AND ELLA GO ON THEIR FIRST DATE

It’s time for Tyrique and Ella to go on their first date, receiving a text, Ella excitedly reads: “Ella, it’s time for you and Tyrique to head out on your first date #GoldenHour #ALengTimeComing”

As they are whisked away from the Villa to a romantic rooftop location and enjoying the picturesque views the two discuss their budding romance. Tyrique tells Ella his friends and family would love her but asks if she would ever consider moving down south?

As the conversation continues, Ella says: “I can see you have feelings for me…the fact that I can see you really trying means a lot.”

Tyrique adds: “I've had feelings in the past…but you’re the person that’s made me realise I can have strong feelings. I didn’t think I was capable, that’s why I’ll always have love and respect for you.”

As the sun sets, is Tyrique finally ready to close himself off to Ella? Or will he continue to keep his options open?

ZACH TAKES KADY TO THE TERRACE

Chatting in the swimming pool, Zach confides in Mitchel about his feelings for Kady, telling him: “I definitely need to secure a cheeky kiss.”

Mitchel says: “When the moment arises you’ll know if it’s right or wrong to do. I think tonight go for a chat and go, ‘ah, it’s a bit loud here’, let’s go upstairs to the terrace.”

Later that evening with the couple sitting on the terrace, Zach tells Kady: “I’m definitely glad you picked me as well…I’d almost say I’ve got some nerves which is nice…it’s a weird feeling for me to be honest. I’ve not had nerves in a very, very, very long time.”

Will Zach pluck up the courage to secure his cheeky kiss?

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
