Season 5 of Love Island Australia gets more intense as even the strongest couples could be on the verge of breaking up at any moment. That happened last week when Nakia, who had been “deeply” in love with Kale, sent him home after their brutal breakup.
ITV Studios returned with an all-new season of the Australian dating series, and the cast couldn’t have been more entertaining. These men and women are willing to go to any lengths to find their true soulmate while also making sure they take home the ultimate cash prize.
The host for this season is Sophie Monk, who just has the perfect way of surprising the contestants with new challenges and unexpected twists in every episode. This time around, the show started with its Spicy Era, but the recent episodes are all about the exciting “Villain Era.” No couple is truly safe in Love Island Australia’s 5th season.
Love Island Australia Season 5: Recap
After Tia and Ryan say a heartbreaking goodbye in the last episode, the other couples prepare for the next upcoming challenge. Before that, Lucinda gets a text that allows the housemates to vote on whether she and Zac could become a couple.
Following the events of the last few episodes, Lucinda and Zac were now both single. While they did have a connection between them all along, Zac and Lucinda would now have to prove it to the other couples if they wanted to stay in the Mallorca house.
Lucinda and Zac write sweet poems for each other and are eventually paired together. Trent revealed earlier that he wanted to try his luck with Georgia instead of staying with Sav and regretting it later. The distant behavior was now obvious to Sav, who knew that Trent wasn’t really into her.
Despite the recent negative vibes coming from her relationship with Trent, Sav strongly believes that she’s going to find her true love in the Love Island house. Georgia, on the other hand, is all about spending more time with Nate.
For a fun all-girls hangout, the women are taken on a boat ride in the middle of the pristine blue ocean water. What they weren’t expecting was a new contestant to show up, adding more competition to the reality show.
Andy from Seattle makes his slo-mo entry and surprises the girls. Andy and Sav end up having matching tattoos and connect for a bit. After having a one-on-one with all of the women, Andy has to decide who he’ll be pairing up with.
Meanwhile, the boys at the villa get a text which reveals that a new bombshell was added to the house. This causes panic among the guys as they aren’t sure if they have strong relationships with their partners.
The girls start coming back one by one, including Lucinda, Georgia, and Tyra. Andy had chosen the top two women that he would want to be partnered up with. They were Nakia and Sav, who were now risking their old relationships at the villa to be with Andy.
Either Trent or Kale would be sent home if any of their partners paired up with Andy. In the end, the new bombshell decides to go with Nakia, meaning that Kale has to be the one to say goodbye in the episode.
Sav and Trent later break up and decide to remain friends. While Andy is all set with Nakia for now, he still seems to be having eyes for Savannah. They have a chat before the challenges, and Nakia eavesdrops on them. Now, with jealousy, Nakia’s relationship might be at risk.
