It's really interesting how whoever is running Gemma's social media isn't posting Luca very much.

For example, they asked for the best #TeamGemma meme today - now to me and if my friend/sister/daughter had been coupled up with the start you'd want a meme possibly featuring them both. The fact they are excluding Luca makes me believe they absolutely see him for what he is. I really hope Louise calls out his behaviour to Gemma and that Gemma listens and dumps him straight after the final. Even Jacques has shown a sense of humility and would be a better person to be with than Luca.

Looking at Insta followers

Gemma 974k Adam 985k(started on 920k)
Ekin 939k(started 350k) Jacques 905k (half a million since leaving)
Paige 830k Luca 735k
Indiyah 412k Davide 523k(his numbers are growing quickly)
Tasha 390k Dami 225k
Danica 201k Andrew 224k

Gemma, Ekin and Paige will all hit a million before the final. All 3 are ahead of Millie(1.9 million) and Chloe(1.5 million) at the same stage as last year. I think all 3 will break 2 million(assuming they all get to the final). Indiyah and Tasha simply aren't connecting and neither will hit a million(even if they get to the final 2), will one of these two pull a Liberty and secure the Dancing on Ice gig?

Jacques, the male Liberty, and that screentime mean he's hitting a million. Luca will be around 1.5-2 million so he's not returning to the fish counter. Dami and Andrew might be moving to London but they'll need to update their CVs first.

Danica will get 400k and spend the next couple of years in Dubai.

Tik Tok numbers roughly show the same pattern.

In short, Jacques has played an absolute blinder. If I'm a producer I'm showing the figures and let the ones at the bottom decide whether to roll the dice and secure screentime in the final week.

Looking at the numbers(the biggest indicator of who will win) the final 2 will be Gemma/Luca and Ekin/Davide.

I predict Ekin moves to Manchester to be with Davide, Gemma and Luca down the road in Chester - forming a Molly-Mae/Tommy and Maura pact - moving on from Love Island and dropping the others. Antigone cheers for Luca and Gemma on social media but then crawls to Paige when she gets out.

Yea I think Jacques is going to do quite well out of this. I noticed he’s been with Scott Thomas and the social pr crew. The fact Paige moved on so quickly will make people feel sorry for him too and they’ll want to hear his take on things. He’s coming across well since leaving the villa, not blaming the adhd and adamant he wants to work on himself. You’re right, he’s the male liberty and because of the fact he left and wants to be better I think brands will want to work with him more than the other big players like Luca and Dami because they haven’t acknowledged their crappy behaviour. Jacques knew the tit was about to hit the fan massively and got out before he did. Andrew is a wet wipe, Davide will be inundated with tv offers I think and Adam will go back to whatever he was doing because he’s bombed here and the rest will fade in to obscurity. So I think the big bucks interviews and boohoo deals will be all for Jacques!

Paige’s Instagram has no mention of Adam either. They were always posting her and Jacques until things went tits up.

Nathalia said she doesn’t have a problem with Ekin but Ekin has a problem with herself!

No, just the loud minority!! I think most people can empathise with Paige for the awful Jacques situation but can see she's a mean girl too.
These people see themselves as Paige, she's not otherworldly pretty and makes herself nice and small to please the men in her life (make them breakfast in the morning, probably rubs their feet after a long day too). That's why she has such a following.

I wonder how Paige and these over influencers get so many followers when they mainly just posts pics of themselves complete with boring one liners

Apparently it's her management that run her account

Did Paige ever mention Jacques in any conversation since he's left? Has anyone asked her about him and what will happen when she gets out now that Adam is in the picture? Why aren't they talking about it?

Yes I would like to know about this but maybe when they all have their morning debrief she will tell them her and Adam are eXcLuSiVe and they will say “woooahhh hold up a minute what about that boy you were madly in love with last week who said he was waiting for you?!” Paige should have at least said to Adam “my head won’t be turned in here but before I can get really serious with you I would like to speak to Jacques”. If this was a man he would be crucified. In fact did we all not hate Adam when he didn’t leave with Zara and recoupled in casa amor??
 
bleeping hell I hate this point in the series. All the couples settled and eyes on the final, final bombshells failing and getting booted out within a few days, boring chats about being ~exclusive~. Everyone seems bored shitless.

She almost certainly will have, but the producers just won't show it. They're pushing the Adam redemption arc HARD🥱

Paige is bog standard ordinary. Nothing special about her at all.

I might have missed this but why is Ekin-Su called, well Ekin-Su when her name is actually Sue Hazel?
 
I don't think there is any way on earth Gemma will stay with Luca. He's forever going to be known as that guy with the teeth who bullied a deaf girl on Love Island with another guy - her reputation would be in shreds by sticking by him.

Luca isn't going to have the blinding stardom he's expecting either which is quite funny. Every single part of his social media is managed to within an inch of it's life and not even the doting sister could save him after his actions over the past week or so. Everything with Luca has been very carefully played by his sister, the fish flops, the framed letter, the sunglasses for her birthday and I honestly believed it all until the bullying started - now I realise it's just a narrative his sister is trying to create.

Apparently Jacques was offered 60k to do Celebs Go Dating but turned it down. Hopefully its more because he isn't in the right head space and not because he is waiting for Paige.
