Love Island Season 9 Episode 24 will start with the entrance of the new bombshell Claudia. She will come in her all-red angel kind of outfit. The girls will be watching from the terrace, as she enters. Claudia will go straight to the boys and give a Dirty Dancer Performance of her own. All of the girls and boys will be shocked to see her perform. After her performance, Claudia will ask the boys “what going on and how is everyone coupling?” To this Ron will say that he is strong with Lana right now.
Then in the morning, Claudia will get a text telling her that it’s time for her to go on a date and that she would need to pick two boys for it. So she will first choose Casey and then she will choose Tom. Then the Islanders will get another text in the night telling them to gather around the fire pit. As we all know this Love Island text means someone’s going home
Love Island Season 9 Previous Episode Recap
Let’s first talk about what happened in episode 23 before going in for Love Island Season 9 Episode 24 Spoilers. There was a Heart rate challenge at the end of Love Island Season 9 Episode 23. Then Casey was finally fed up, and the Lana, Casey, and Ron Triangle it’s finally over. It’s been dragging for the last week, thank the Lord it is done and we can move on to something else.
Episode 22 was not a good episode and I wasn’t really tantalized by the challenge. Or by the entirety of that episode. But what I was underwhelmed by was the Samie vs Olivia stuff. Olivia was kind saying that “it was childish for you to run your mouth behind my back, you are differing with future friendships in this villa, it’s affecting me and Tanyel, we haven’t been the same since, and it’s your fault.
Jordan pulls Tanyel for a chat just to kind of see like, “yo, what’s the deal with this Lana situation, but also, what’s the deal with you?” I was surprised at first that things didn’t progress out of the date that they had. But the more I see Jordan on my screen, I’m just like “Nothing, we’re getting nothing from you. Just heightened vibes”. He doesn’t give me energy.
And again, I don’t want to make it seem like people who have a calm personalities are boring, but this one is boring. Tanyel wants somebody who was like the calm to her storm. That’s what she was looking for in Spencer, or that’s what she liked and Spencer not necessarily looking for, but Jordan is too calm.
Samie and Tom have a chat and he goes in for a kiss outside of the Challenge. And honestly, I don’t want to be caught off guard with his Redemption story working on me. So I’m not even going to talk about it. I’m going to pretend that t didn’t happen. But he went in for the kiss, she was cool with it and they had a good giggle.
The Olivia Drama
Then the villa gets a text that there is a couple who can be nominated to go into the hideaway and the villa unanimously chooses Will and Jessie. One thing about Will is that he is going to be Will no matter what. With the guys, with the girls, on his own, and on the beach hut. He’s not changing for anyone and I love that for him.
Guys, I’m on the Will & Jessie boat. I mean, I’ve been on the boat, but then some viewers have been saying that she’s faking it. So I’m like, “OK, yeah, maybe she’s faking it” and I’m looking, and I’m looking, and I’m looking, and I don’t see it. I’m choosing to be delusional and fall for the storyline.
So Miss delusional, Olivia, take Samie aside and it’s like, “yeah, I’ve been noting a few things the last few days and I feel like maybe you have an issue with me”. Isn’t it rich that Olivia, who has been saying backbiting comments behind Tanyel’s back, on numerous occasions at this point, is upset at Samie for allegedly being “in her business” and “talking behind her back”? I just think that it is a delusion for me. Anyways, Olivia thinks she’s that girl. But she ain’t that girl, will never be that girl, and we’re gonna move on from that girl.
Samie just took it on the chin, accepted it, and called it a day. I kind of expected her to have some more of a reply. Because she has that as came with the energy to have the right conversations to engineer storylines. So why can’t you have that same energy now?
I just wish she did because I felt like she was gonna reading Samie, calling childish stuff like that, which I don’t think is acceptable. Because Olivia has been running around herself talking to Lana about XYZ. How can you say that Samie is childish for talking to Tanyel, but you’re not childish for you beginning that conversation behind Tanyel’s back? And then you were speaking to Lana XYZ prior. And then it was her and Zara as she was running around as well. So I feel like, Olivia can’t call somebody childish in this scenario because she is childish as well.
It just doesn’t make any sense Olivia. I think it’s quite unfair, but I was expecting something from Samie. I feel like when it comes to any kind of conflict because we’re addicted to drama when it comes to Love Island, let’s be real its more about drama for most of us, I get kind of underwhelmed. Because I expect to be some kind of big breakout or something happens to be dramatic or something and that just doesn’t really take place, it doesn’t happen and I’m waiting for it and it doesn’t take place.
The other girl who never be that girl, Lana. Basically, she’s like, “I’m gonna be the respectable person and go sleep on the day beds. But Casey had already had himself situated to go sleep on the day bed, so that’s not a problem, right?
So she is chilling and Ron comes over, you know, they’re excited to be back together. Of course, sleeping in different beds because Ron is coupled up with Tanyel. But Ron goes spicy anyways and asks Tanyel if he can cuddle with her. This man is definitely taking a piss. I’m sorry Tanyel, but you are also taking the piss out of Lana. “Lana is my best friend”, but you want to cuddle her man in bed? I know there are relationships that could be truly platonic, but this was something else.
The Morning Drama
The next morning, Will and Jessie returned from the hideaway and of course, they give the report of their night. But the reality was saved by Jesse to give to Tanya. Tanya, we know y’all had sex. What do you mean you just told the girls you did it? You said you did the “full meal” or something. See this is why y’all shouldn’t do these weird analogies and stuff like that because we don’t even know what it means. I perceive that as y’all had the sex, so it wasn’t a surprise to me.
And then Jessie told them they went all the way. I don’t think she’s playing a game, I really don’t. And if she is, and if she can fully have sex with this man. I mean, some people can detach from sex and is not a problem, but knowing how he feels about you and still having sex and she is just playing a game… Then she is gonna go down as the greatest Super Villain of all Love Island time. Now Let’s talk about the spoilers for Love Island Season 9 Episode 24.
