Who is Love Island's Emily? A reminder of her age, background and more as she and Toni come to blows
If you're anything like us, you've been sitting front and centre for all things Love Island this summer. The reality show has hit our screens once again, pulling us into another dimension of fake tan, feuds and frantic recouplings, and we can't believe we went a whole year without it! This season has seen plenty of romantic drama, but a fair share of Islander fallings out to boot. Top of mind? The spat which, seemingly, appeared from nowhere, between Toni Laites and bombshell Emily Moran. As we puzzle over what happened, here's a lil reminder as to who Emily is and what went down... She is 24 years old. Emily appears to have been born on 4 May, 2001, making her a Taurus. This is an earth sign which is known to be reliable, sensible, sensual, and have a taste for the finer things. She is an insurance development executive. Emily is Welsh and hails from Aberdare, which also happens to be the home of Love Island 2024's Nicole Samuel. Small world, huh? Before Love Island, Emily was living in Sydney, Australia. Shortly after Emily went on the villa, her TikTok presence was boosted by a video of her friend's dad reacting in live time to her appearing in the villa as a bombshell. His flabbergasted response is one for the ages. Speaking to producers, Emily had a pretty clear idea of her type, saying: "Someone with emotional intelligence for one. Someone who is really confident but not cocky. They can hold a room, communicate… oh, and biceps!" She's also get a clear picture on this one, so stay away if you don't mind your Ps and Qs. "Bad manners, being rude, not saying please and thank you. I'd rather someone be overly polite than not say it at all," she said. Want to learn more about Emily? Give her a follow on IG at the handle @emilyxmorann. Expect beach pics and a blowout that will give you unimaginable hair envy. Emily does indeed have TikTok, and can be found over on the clock app at @emillymorann. Her posts have major clean girl energy and also include dumps from her life in Australia. Conor Phillips. Emily entered the villa as a bombshell alongside Yasmin and Malisha towards the end of the first week. The trio were announced on 13 June and appeared during boys' night, when the male Islanders were discussing their early connections in the villa. Emily opted to take Conor, who was coupled up with Toni, for a date. Conor ended things with Toni to pursue his connection with Emily and Emily and Conor made it offish at the next recoupling. However, it's not been all smooth sailing for Emily. Toni appeared to take a dislike to her in an episode aired on 20 June, sarcastically calling her "Little Miss Sunshine" and speaking poorly of her with Shakira. Meg later pulled Emily to the side to tell her what Toni had been saying about her. Things escalated after Emily pulled Toni for a chat to see if she would want to open up about what she had been saying about her behind her back. Toni said "I've been very bothered by you," and went onto explain she was annoyed about Emily's reaction to the recoupling in which Toni and Malisha were left single. In response, Emily was confused, and the discussion got more heated. Toni told Emily to, "get the f**k out of my face" and Emily said of Toni to the wider group, "she's f**king nuts." Emily also asked if the situation had to do with Toni's prior involvement with Conor, who she Emily is currently in a couple with, but Toni denied this. We'll see how this one develops as the season progresses...

Mom Gets Son To Sleep, Feels 'So Guilty' Over What She Sees on Baby Cam
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A mom-of-two found a genius way of getting her infant son to sleep, but when she checked in on his baby cam, what she saw left her heartbroken. Parenthood brings with it a myriad of challenges that change and evolve as children grow up. In the first few years at least, one of the biggest centers on sleep, or rather the lack of it. According to one 2019 study published in the journal Sleep, moms and dads can expect to experience some form of sleep deprivation for the first six years of their child's life. For those parents in the trenches of that developmental stage, exhaustion and frustration can set in when a child struggles to get the necessary rest. Louise Wright, from Nottinghamshire in the U.K, knows this only too well. She's a mom of two with 7-year-old and 4-month-old boys to contend with. Right now, it's the younger of her two sons who is proving problematic at bedtime. "He is 4 months old and in the 4-month sleep regression which is really tough, especially when I have another kid to settle," Wright said. "The days feel long when they don't nap and so you often count down until bedtime. It can be really frustrating pacing the room waiting for them to sleep then trying to transfer them into their cot." One night recently, Wright hit upon an idea to help her understandably clingy son get off to sleep when she put him down in his bed. "I decided to take off my T-shirt and put it beside him," Wright said. Aware that it wouldn't be safe for him to sleep the whole night through alongside the garment, Wright switched on her son's baby cam and moved to the other room where she would watch and wait until he was fast asleep. But then something unexpected happened. "As I watched him, I sat down for the first time that day and of course as a parent all the guilt begins to sneak in that you yelled too much or wished the time away," Wright said. "As I watched him snuffle up to my T-shirt and take comfort from it I felt so sad for rushing the bedtime process because all he needed was me, his mum." Eager to express the conflicting emotions she felt in that moment, Wright posted a clip of the baby cam footage to her TikTok, @lemon_squeezey, explaining how watching her son cuddle into the T-shirt left her feeling "so guilty." This feeling of guilt wasn't just focused solely on her younger son either. "My other boy is 7 and although he's independent and can do his own thing while he waits for me to settle his brother, it's not fair on him to miss out on time or to have a snappy irritable parent," Wright said. The video was met with a positive response though as other moms online sought to reassure her. "You're an amazing mum," one viewer wrote. "It's very valid to feel touched out and overstimulated but in the end of it all." Wright hopes the video reminds people how tough motherhood can be in these moments. "It's lonely being a mum and sometimes you can feel as though you are the only one in the depths of sleep deprivation," she said. Though she may have been struggling at that precise moment, the response this clip and many others like it, that she has shared online, has helped her realize she is not alone. "I've built a great community of mum friends," she said. One day her kids will both sleep soundly in their beds. Until then, Wright is determined to enjoy every moment she can.

These ultra-sticky, non-toxic decals blend right into your windows while luring in everything from house flies to gnats. Peel, stick, and enjoy your bug-free home without a single zap or swat. Promising review: "This is disgusting and so stinking satisfying. I'm renting a house that does not have a screen door, and I have two young children who run in and out. They bring a lot of flies with them. I've tried several different things... But what's amazing about this is that you stick it on the window, you walk away, and you let the tape do all the work for you. Disgusting and fascinating to my toddlers? Yes and yes. Is that 18 fewer flies I'm chasing around the kitchen with the swatter? Oh yes." —Meaghan Get it from Amazon for $6.29+ (available in multiple pack sizes). A set of Beckham Hotel Collection pillows to replace your old pillows. These are big, fluffy, and soft, and everyone says it feels like you're sleeping at a fancy hotel when you use them. Yes, please! See them in action in TikTok user Aprill Mae's review: "Due to packaging, they are quite flat at first. Laid them flat for a few hours. Shook and fluffed them up and was able to sleep like a baby last night. These pillows are heavenly. I say that because it feels as though you're sleeping on a cloud. I slept with both. One under my head and one to hug. They stayed a comfortable temp all night long. The first morning, I didn't wake up with neck, shoulder, and back pain in over a week and a half. I feel rested and refreshed." —Amazon Customer"These are THE BEST pillows! I'm a side/stomach sleeper, and these provide the perfect amount of support for me. Exactly what I was looking for. I was a bit skeptical, given how inexpensive they are — I'm used to spending a lot on bedding — but I decided to trust the over 200,000 reviews, and I'm so glad I did. Highly, highly recommend." —Irene PopeGet it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in three sizes). And a set of silk-like pillowcases for dressing up your bedding without needing to spend big bucks. There are 36 colors available, so you're sure to find the right one for your bed's vibe. A 3-in-1 wireless charger to charge your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods all at the same time, no unsightly nest of cords required. A food storage set that includes eight 30-ounce containers with lids. The containers are glass, which means you won't get the food stains you often see with traditional plastic food storage containers. I use these for meal prepping all the time. Promising review: "Absolutely love this product! Makes storing and transporting my meals extremely easy and keeps everything fresh all week. Portion size is perfect. I fit a whole chicken breast plus rice in them with room to spare. The leak-proof design holds in freshness in and gives me peace of mind when transporting them in my backpack. When all is done they are extremely easy to clean." —RHGet it on Amazon for $35.99 (available in three colors). A jar of the The Pink Stuff — aka TikTok's favorite all-purpose cleaning paste. From everyday messes to years' worth of buildup, there's no grossness that this miracle cleaner can't take on.

An Instant Pot to pressure cook, slow cook, cook rice, steam, sauté...and even make yogurt. This is truly an amazing small appliance that will make cooking so many of your different dishes a breeze, I promise. And because it can do so much in such a little device, imagine all the countertop and cabinet space you'll save. Promising review: "This is quite possibly the coolest, most versatile kitchen gadget I've ever owned. I love it so much that I've purchased two more for friends and relatives. What can it do? I think the real question is 'What can't it do?' I truly believe you could replace every cooking appliance (including your oven and stove top) and do EVERYTHING in the Instant Pot. I purchased two sizes for my own use: the 3-quart (which is my almost-every-day workhorse for two person dishes) and the 8-quart (which I bring out to handle my dinner party dishes). Everything I've tried has been fabulous. In the realm of kitchen appliances, there is no better investment than the Instant Pot. Highly recommended!!!" —StereomanGet it from Amazon for $79.99. A microfiber spin mop so your mop isn't soaking wet before you get to cleaning. It's machine washable, has an automatic wringer, and is designed in a shape that will reach into small spaces and corners, no problem. Or a flat mop that basically cleans itself, so you don't have to touch the grimy mop head (bless). The compact design makes it great for tight spaces, and the reusable microfiber pads mean you can keep your floors and walls sparkling without hauling out a giant mop setup every time. An automatic, odor-absorbing, sensor-activated trash can made of fingerprint-proof stainless steel. Who knew a single trashcan could do so much? Promising review: "I bought this trash can eight years ago. At the time, it was hard to find any stainless-steel trash cans for an affordable price, so the fact that this was the most reasonable and it had the automated lid seemed like a pretty easy choice. It still looks great and works great. You can wave over the sensor to open the lid, or there is a button on the front of it to open the lid and keep it open. The lid does a great job of holding any odors in while it's closed." —SomniGet it from Amazon for $49.07+ (available in six styles). A veggie chopper so that prepping an abundance of food is easier than doing it all by hand. Give yourself a break with this chopper that uses four blades to julienne, chop, and slice vegetables with ease. A nonslip, quick-dry stone bath mat if you're tired of soggy bath mats that take forever to dry. This is made out of diatomaceous earth (fancy, right?), which dries faster than you can say "bye-bye mildew." Dorai is a small business in Salt Lake City that makes everyday items for the home. Promising review: "The last bathroom mat you will ever need! This product has been a game-changer for us. We liked it so much, we gifted it to a few of our friends, and they all loved it, too! The standout feature is how it almost instantly dries your feet with a unique suction effect — once you experience this, there's no going back to regular bathmats. It's versatile, performing well in both hot and cold weather, and the included slip-resistant rubber mat is a thoughtful addition." —Joshua it from Amazon for $69+ (available in two colors and two styles). A multi-plug outlet with six electric outlets, two USB ports, and a built-in nightlight. The nightlight has three levels of brightness, and can turn on automatically when it senses the area getting dark. An expandable shelf for under your sink that adjusts itself around your awkwardly shaped pipe. You will be able to fit so much more stuff under your sink when you use this! Measures 15 inches long x 11.25 inches wide x 15 inches high and can expand to 25 inches review: "I'm so glad I bought this. I have a 24-inch vanity in my bathroom and this fit perfectly. I have it extended to about 23-inch and it holds sturdy, though I can see if you were to extend it to its full length it gets weak in the middle. I liked it so much that I ordered another one for the kitchen. I got some clear bins to help organize bottles and other goodies I keep in the bath." —Marlene it from Amazon for $24.87 (available in three finishes). A garlic chopper to mince or chop garlic for you. You literally just put up to five regular-size cloves in it and then use your hand to roll this thing on any smooth surface, and it chops it all up in a matter of seconds. If you want to mince it, you keep rolling for maybe 10 more seconds. I have one of these and sticky hands and knives are now a thing of the past. Promising review: "Love! Love! Love the GarlicZoom! Mincing garlic has never been more easy or fun. It makes mince work out of garlic, onion, chilies and herbs. I'm not sure what I love most about this little gadget. Not smelling stinky garlic fingers all night? No burning fingers or eyes from chopping a super hot chile? Or mincing fresh herbs in a blink of an eye. I have a problem wrist from an injury and an arm and hand that suffers from nerve damage. I can still manage to zoom this. When people ask if the can help in the kitchen, this is the chore that I give them and everyone loves it. They think it's the neatest little thing." —Kennedy CollinsGet it from Amazon for $14.61. A pack of Affresh dishwasher-cleaning tablets for making sure your dishwasher is super clean and therefore capable of making sure your dishes are too. All you do is drop a tablet into the dishwasher before you run a load, and it does all the work from there. Promising reviews: "Works extremely well. We haven't done any cleaning on our dishwasher in five years, and there was detergent buildup all over the inside, and a milky film on all our cups. I bought Affresh, ran the dishwasher with two tablets while it was empty, and the difference was astounding. There was still some buildup and I figured it would require another cycle, so I popped another two tablets in, and now it looks and sounds brand new. No more film on the glasses, no more dirty dishes from clogged sprayers, no more odors or buildup around the door seals." —MartouneGet a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $8.99. Some sleek transparent dividers to separate clothes into categories. Sweaters, pants, T-shirts, and more will finally have a place inside your closet that doesn't require being hung up. Promising review: "These dividers have changed my life! I put them on the top shelf of my clothes closet and divide sections into the type of clothes I want. One section has blue jeans, another section has black pants, another section has lightweight summer pants, and I can see everything just looking up at the shelf. My closet is no longer a mess, and the top shelf above the hanging clothes is no longer the place where I just throw things and can't keep track of them. I never knew what was up there and now I do! As I said I just bought a second set of them for my second closet." —Elizabeth Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three colors and packs of two, four, six, or eight). A foaming garbage disposal cleaner that uses magical blue foam to rid your garbage disposal of foodstuff and odor. I have these and actually look forward to using them, they're that great. You push one of the biodegradable packets into your drain and then turn the water on. Before you know it, this blue foam starts bubbling up from your drain(s) and after a few minutes completely disappears. After that, the drain is super clean and those lingering smells are gone. Here's what you do: Run some hot water, pop one of the packets in your disposer, let it foam, then wait for the foam to fully disappear. Garbage disposer = clean and ickiness-free. Promising review: "Works like a charm! These are pretty cool! I was a little skeptical but I followed the easy-to-use directions and it worked just like the product said it would. Foamed up and cleaned the drain!! Smell removed!!" —Jennifer KGet two packs of four from Amazon for $12.97. A set of two toothpaste squeezers so you get every last ounce of toothpaste out of the tube. It also holds your toothpaste upright, which means it won't take up as much valuable countertop space. I really hate wasting product, but so many bottles and tubes make it impossible to get the last couple of tablespoons of stuff out. I can't stand this! With this squeezer, I literally get ALL the toothpaste out before I need a new tube, and it's soooo satisfying. Promising review: "These work great. They keep even a full tube upright so the bathroom counter looks tidier. The key twists the empty section of the tube easily so every bit of the toothpaste is used with no fuss. Have one for my husband and me and for each of the two kids. Highly recommend this product." —Chelley PattersonGet a set of two from Amazon for $7.80+ (available in two color combinations). A pumice stone for removing hard water stains in your toilet's bowl. Considered a must-have cleaning tool, if there's a stain in your toilet that you're sure is permanent, try this out and watch it disappear like magic. Powerstone is a small business that makes home cleaning products out of pumice stone. Promising review: "The holy grail of toilet cleaning. Oh wow! I am so happy with this pumice! It removed all the buildup from my hard water easily and quickly! I was thinking I would have to buy a new toilet and start over and just try to clean it every day. I've NEVER been so pleased with a product!" —TashaGet it from Amazon for $12.87+. (be sure to clip the 20% off coupon when applicable; available in packs of one or two). Some motion-activated, battery-powered night-lights to illuminate dark areas in your home. I use these in closets, deep cabinets, and my bathroom that has a really loud fan that turns on every time I switch the light on. A roll-up drying rack so you can let dishes and produce dry without taking up valuable countertop space. And because it goes over the sink, no need to worry about water dripping all over the place. A utility wagon to haul all your heavy stuff around. I used mine nearly every day — getting groceries and heavy packages into my apartment, taking recycling down to the bins. And to add more icing to the cake, it completely collapses when not in use. A 15-piece set of airtight food containers, because your pantry staples deserve a designated home. This set has over 24,600 5-star reviews for a reason, it's that good. Promising review: "I ordered this set to continue on the road to an organized pantry. There are enough containers and enough variety of sizes to make me happy. I have stored pastas and noodles, dried beans, rice, sugar, instant mashed potatoes, crackers, etc. When I open a box of something, I put whatever is unused into one of the containers and feel very secure that the contents will be fresh and protected from any possible insect problems." —R MGet it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in three colors). A rapid egg cooker to cook up to six eggs five different ways with a push of a button. Hard boil, soft boil, poach, scrambled, even omelets — this tiny appliance will do it all so you don't have to. Promising review: "If you are on the fence about getting one of these, GET ONE. It really is as easy as it sounds to have a perfectly cooked egg, no guesswork. Just have an ice bath ready next to the cooker and let the eggs sit for a minute or two in come right off :) Makes healthy eating a breeze in the morning! Where has this been all my life?!?!?" —rebeccaGet it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in six colors).Check out our Dash Rapid Egg Cooker review. A CovoBox that provides hidden storage for unsightly things like routers and bulky cords. Each box is made right here in the USA with real wood and reclaimed books.

A windproof rechargeable lighter for all your candles and grilling needs. The flexible neck makes it easy to light hard to reach wicks, and it'll spark 400 times before it needs to be recharged. Promising reviews: "I'm a candle-freak, so I was tired of using a regular lighter and then having to rig up something to reach the wicks as my candles burned down. I had seen these lighters previously, read through the reviews and decided to purchase. I've been very happy with my purchase. After reading reviews, I just make sure to clean the lighter with the little brush that's included, to make sure there is no wax on it, each time I use it. I have had no problems." —MMGet it from Amazon for $7.99. A nontoxic, plant- and mineral-based essentials cleaning kit so that you can keep your home sparkling clean without the use of harsh chemicals. The kit may give you sticker shock, but after you factor in how many times you can refill each bottle with the magical concentrate, it breaks down to about the same price per bottle of cleaner you'd buy at a big store. Each kit comes with a 33.8 oz bottle of cleaning concentrate and three refillable bottles for all-purpose cleaner, bathroom cleaner, and glass cleaner. Branch Basics is a woman-owned small business based in Minneapolis, making high-quality, non-toxic cleaning review: "This is the cleaning solution I've been needing for so long.

The set includes four bins: one with six cells for scarves and tights, eight square cells for underwear, seven wide cells for bras, and 24 small cells for review: "I love these things; they're so versatile. I have them all over: drawers, closet shelves, cabinets. I use them for more than just underwear too. I use them for dry art supplies in open shelves and just about anywhere else I need to organize." —Kindle MacGet it from Amazon for $14.97 (available in seven colors). And a honeycomb divider if your drawer is a sea of mismatched socks. This tiny but mighty divider will create 18 pockets, though reviewers say bigger drawers can accommodate two sets — so 36 pockets. The set snaps together with maximum dimensions of 13.25 inches x14.38 inches, but you can snap two (or more!) packs together if you want to fill more drawer space!Promising review: "Okay, admittedly, I am a bit of an organization freak. I purchased two of these organizers (yes, you do need two PER drawer) to organize my underwear drawer. The gratification I got from being able to see exactly what I had, neatly organized, easy to find... Wow. I definitely recommend this product. And the actual dividers are well made and super easy to assemble." —BrigetteGet it from Amazon for $9.17+ (available in black or white). A moisture meter to place deep down into the soil so you know exactly how much water your plant is getting. Under- and overwatering can be a thing of the past, people! A two-stage knife sharpener, because preparing food with a dull knife is never a good idea. Keep all your knives sharp with this easy tool that only requires a few swipes to make it like new again. Promising review: "Wow, this little gadget is pretty amazing! I have some old (expensive) nonserrated knives that are supposed to never need sharpening but unfortunately, lost their sharp edge long ago. I saw this gadget and decided to try it. I set the bottom of this gadget on the edge of the counter and ran one of the knives through the side labeled 'Coarse' about 10 times, then ran it through the side labeled 'Fine' another 8–10 times. Bingo! The knife was transformed back to its former high-dollar cutlery glory. I could hardly believe how effectively it had sharpened the knife, which I had been ready to throw away a week before. I've been happily sharpening all our knives and trying to add up in my head how much money I've saved by NOT having to buy another set of expensive knives. Great score!" —Schelly L. WagonerGet it from Amazon for $8.70+ (available in four colors).Read our full review of the KitchenIQ knife sharpener. A pair of smartplugs that you can control with your voice or the accompanying app. If you want the lights to be on when you get home, just use the app to make sure it happens. Either turn them on remotely through the app or schedule a time for them to turn on. Promising review: "I purchased the two pack for these smart outlets. They are very easy to setup and link to your home Wi-Fi via the intuitive app. The app itself is great and it is easy to link up and control multiple smart outlets and even allows you to take pictures of the device that is powered by the outlet and set up schedules for on/off times which makes it very convenient for lamps or other devices you want to run at night only. The app also comes with a widget as well which can be viewed from the lock screen which is very useful because It reduces the amount of push notifications you get on a daily basis. The device itself also has a manual on/off button as well so if your Wi-Fi goes out you can still manually operate the device as well. I would purchase this again." —Samson GebreGet a pack of two from Amazon for $14.96. A double closet rod for getting the most out of your closet's vertical space. All those blouses, jackets, and shirts are taking up way too much valuable real estate, so literally double your space with this nifty tool. Promising review: "This is sturdy and lightweight. This closet rod doubled my available space in seconds. There is plenty of space on the top rod for longer shirts and tops and shorter ones fit perfectly on the lower rod, without touching the floor. Plus, hangers stay in place and don't slide to one end or the other based on how heavy items are, and so far the rod hasn't sagged or bowed at all. And I have all my sweatshirts and heavy fleece jackets on the bottom rod. Space will obviously depend on the height of the closet rod you hang this from, but I would highly recommend this for anyone with need of more closet space!!" —CCBunEGet it from Amazon for $15.99. And a magnetic bobby pin tray so that all your pins stay in one place instead of literally everywhere else. I find bobby pins everywhere — under my sofa cushions, in the back of drawers, at the bottom of the laundry bin — and it's entirely preventable with a simple tool like this.
