Love Island 2021 #31 tactile fanny shutter

Who in their right mind is supporting her!? I don't get it, she's so vile and you can just see on everyone's faces in there that they are exhausted from her.
How can you look at how she behaves and think "you go girl" is beyond me. She's so immature and egotistical.
The way she went off at Brett for saying that him and Priya would get on outside the villa cause they move in similar circles was just so nasty and frankly nuts. The NEED to make every situation about her is so intense and unhinged.
Even expecting the other girls to come up and tell her that her and Teddy are not the most compatible couple in the villa out of the blue just shows she thinks she is the centre of the universe. Her inability to understand that her screaming at Teddy, her telling everyone that would listen that they were incompatible, her coupling up with another man are all signs that they are incompatible and would make her an obvious choice for such a vote hurts my brain.
She fails to realise her friend's can be rooting for her and still think that their other friends are in more compatible couples. The ego on her to think that everyone else should be voted for except her is so childish. She basically trying to bully herself into the final.
I can see some serious Narcissist traits in her, I have noticed them since the beginning but the last 2 episodes and the Teddy screaming match really cemented it for me.
Sorry for the rant but I just really wish she was gone already, it's so frustrating seeing such shitty behaviour being rewarded.

I completely agree. She has ruined this series for me. She even said yesterday “we need to stop walking on egg shells” but doesn’t realise she’s the reason they are! There genuinely seems to be an atmosphere around her. She thrives off drama but not everyone else does.

I don't understand how she even made a connection between Brett saying that and a reason to be offended? Can someone explain? IIRC, there was no mention of her and Teddy at that moment.

I didn't get it at all at the time, I was shocked and poor Brett was so confused.
But she has said before that her and Teddy would never have met on the outside so when Brett said how him and Priya could realistically work on the outside she decided to take a massive leap and get offended by what he said so bizarre.

Are they bringing families in this weekend like in previous years? I'm not sure they will because of covid and quarantine but if they do it will be interesting to see what Faye's family are like. Especially when they meet Teddy's!

I think her defensiveness is because she knows how incompatible they are, and she doesn’t think it will work either, but it’s easier to argue with everyone else rather than face the reality.

I think living with someone like Faye can change the atmosphere where you're constantly on edge with what you're doing or saying incase they blow. We have a lady at work who isn't as bad but can be snappy and nasty and we recently chatted as a team and said we need to stop doing the whole "oh that's just what [insert name] is like..." thing and actually tell her that no this is not acceptable. This is exactly what needs to be done with Faye. She perceives herself as this honest heroine who doesn't get the same back, when actually people are terrified to tell her.

Mary annoyed me last night too. On about compatability when she wasn't long ago crying over bliddy Dale being picked. And Aaron was OTT.

I think they all forgot that everyone had to vote. It wasn't even saying you're fully not compatible, you're just who they think were the least compatible of the bunch.

I feel like Teddy has become the guy who backs up his mad missus because at least it means he's not the one feeling her wrath...

 

[Priscilla99]

It really surprises me that viewers can’t see this. It also really surprises me that people want to see themselves in Faye.

I think she and Teddy are the least compatible because of how aggressive she is. They do not communicate in the same way with each other and regardless that they may have got past this one episode of her shouting her head off, she’s still going to do it again at some point. And again. And again…

In just six weeks Teddy has altered from a relaxed and sweet man to a man who now talks in clipped sound bites and doesn’t seem to look anyone in the eye, his whole body language is slumped.
Guess that’s what love can do

Chloe said something like “who else would stand up there and be awful to everyone”
I feel like that comment is quite telling about the vibe in the villa. The girls may have been quite hurt by what she was directing at the boys. She wasn’t funny, she was saying mean things with a smile.

I’ll stop venting now!

It was painful! She tried to copy Amber and Olivia - who despite their faults, are in a different league compared to Faye in every way. Her 'roast' had zero wit and the islanders just looked awkward. I hate cliques too but maybe they just don't enjoy spending time with her. Don't see why she would care if she's got her wet wipe Teddy anyway.

I work with someone like that’s just like Faye. No one can give an opinion/tell the truth/have a conversation generally without this person getting too emotional and getting too involved. I feel bad for those in the villa as it must be so uncomfortable.

She is too sensitive and needs to grow up a bit. Not everyone is going to like you or agree with you. Also, not everyone has to explain themselves to you!

 

[stardust21]

I think the problem is the show is “Love Island” and so islanders don’t want to admit that they aren’t actually happy in their couple because then they won’t win.

I don’t particularly believe any of these couples. This has been the worst series for genuine relationships, both romantic and friendship.

I think people who were saying yesterday, “I would act like Faye” aren’t really thinking about the fact these girls aren’t her best friends. They’ve known each other a few weeks, all be it a few weeks they’ve lived together, they still aren’t best friends.

We as viewers expect to see chemistry and connection, and the islanders know that, soif they don’t feel it of course they’re going to fake it. Faye just doesn’t like the fact she was the one called out about it yesterday.

I see that a lot.
Nah she’s just a knob

Teddy is showing who he is now. He can see how she behaves and he’s obviously okay with it. Fayes behaviour from immediately following the votes was intimidating and passive aggressive. She set the tone for the tension and set everyone else kicking off. I also think she is underlying threatening them from future votes which could change the outcome of the final three. They’ll think twice before voting for her and Teddy in the future because she’s let them know she’s not okay with that. She’s the Queen manipulator. Knows she can’t fully kick off but does just enough to get away with it.

Time to catch up on the last 30+ pages! Love it.
Faye thinks the public like her because after her last horrific outburst, she wasn't in the bottom 3 because of when the voting was done. She made a comment in last nights episode which implied that she thought the public was behind her. She acted like the choices the other couples made were more of a popularity contest than what they actually were.
If I was Lib/Kaz/Millie, I would have asked Faye who they should have voted for if not her...and then when she said her answer (Which would have been Mary & Aaron 2.0) I would have asked her why she thought that - just to watch hers dig a little hole for herself...

The girls off her rocker in my opinion. She shouldn't have passed the psych evaluation - she clearly has some sort of trauma that makes her think that everything people do is a personal attack

I am also finding myself feeling sorry for Jake lately, are we judging him too harshly? It is a TV show at the end of the day I guess we will never know.

listening to Orlaith again on my pod on paper and so frustrating - the Faye apologist. Sooooo annoying. I really need to stop listening to this I know but it’s hard as used to love this podcast. It’s one rule for Faye and another for everyone else. Duty of care, duty of care.. what about everyone else Orlaith?

Maybe she's scared Faye will exit the villa and hunt her down

 

[JombleWomble]

On a side note do we think Mary and Arron just wanted some air time. So it’s not just “The Faye Show”

I think so. Mary didn't actually seem to care about the results so I think she just brought it up to get herself on screen. Then when Aaron got riled up it was too late for her to admit she didn't care so she just went along with it

 

[Priscilla99]

Don’t expect it to happen but if Kaz and Faye had a (non camera time) heated argument Kaz would best Faye all day long. Not Kaz’s greatest fan, the fact that she has remarkable clarity in an argument compared to how she shrieks like a 5 year old over nothing says lots to me.
But last night Aaron caused her to really lose her temper and still she had clarity and made sense, Faye just resorts to swearing as she has no decent vocabulary to deploy.
The pen is mightier than the sword.

Love it.

Love Island is sending the wrong message by keeping her in. Also what was the comment? I missed it.

My first year of uni there was a girl similiar to Faye living in the same halls. Constantly shouting and deliberately seeking out reasons to argue with people. Thought she should be at the centre of every event or discussion. People started avoiding the communal areas if she was around and it wasn't because we were being cliquey, it was because she put people on edge. One night I tried to talk to her calmly and politely about how she's misunderstood something and I wish I hadn't because she kicked off massively and held it against me for the rest of the year. I think that's the only time I've ever regretted being assertive with someone.

I don't blame any of the others for not talking to Faye directly about their thoughts on her relationship, or for not trying to intervene when she lays in to people, because it will only make living with her even more tense. I'm not surprised they all look a bit deflated at this point because living with someone like that is fucking exhausting.

I'm glad Sharon is gone because she'd probably have been joining in and keeping Faye fired up by agreeing with her like she did with the Hugo thing.

Editted to add- I was 18/19 when I tried to speak to this girl and instantly regretted it lol. Now I'm older and wiser I would still challenge the behaviour of someone like her but there's no way I would have risked doing it again at that age

Looking at our poll alone it’s looking like bottom three couples will be Mary/Aaron, Jake/Liberty and Kaz/Tyler with Mary/Aaron likely to go. I can’t believe the amount of Faye supporters . It’s a shame because I think as soon as she goes the villa will perk up a bit.

Is it not normally four couples in the final? Season five it was wasnt it?

The only good thing is that it would kill the snake to see Faye being voted more than in. Imagine the confusion on his greasy little face!!

I feel the same - it really is just a TV show like you said, we just do not know what is real.

What we do know is that the producers heavily manipulate situations, re-shoot scenes and each person plays a certain character/role to create drama, redemption arcs and “journeys”.

I think the problem is how Love Island is portrayed as being real, which causes the audience to react more strongly to any negative behaviour. However, if we were watching any other scripted show, we would not call out the actors in the same way.

At the end of the day their main goal is not to find love but to become influencers and sell us whatever they’re paid to advertise. I feel like I’ve taken the red pill in the Matrix when it comes to reality TV - I can’t view it in the same way anymore!

I reckon it’s to do with the airtime that Faye gets over the others you mention [Jake seems to be getting a lot less presently].
You cannot vote for what you cannot see.
