Love Island's Blu reveals the villa couple who won't last when Casa Amor comes around – and it's NOT who you expect
LOVE Island's Blu Chegini has predicted which villa couple won't last when Casa Amor comes around. Construction worker Blu, 26, became this series' first evicted lad last week following a savage villa twist. 4 Now, speaking on The Morning After podcast, he didn't bite his tongue when asked about Remell Mullings, 24, and Alima Gagigo, 23. 'Right for right now is the perfect way to describe them,' Blu said when asked if they had long-term potential. He added: 'If a bombshell comes in that he fancies, he's going to go with that bombshell.' It seems Blu isn't convinced by Remell's connection with Alima – despite their on-screen chemistry and shared kiss. The Londoner said: 'He started to vibe with everyone a few days in. But if someone else walks in, I think it's game over.' Hosts Amy Hart and Indiyah Polack also predicted doom for the couple. The first week had viewers gripped with villa drama and explosive moments. Despite recent tensions, a U-turn saw them share a passionate kiss in Tuesday's episode. Speaking on the podcast, Amy said: "Thing is as well, with Remell and Alima, most people can count, right? "You go in the villa and there's more boys than girls. Which means that boys will be at risk. "So, I need to find a girl - and I'm not saying that Alima was an easy option. "She's a beautiful girl with a beautiful heart and she's amazing." Continuing, Amy remarked how Remell "didn't even speak to anyone else" and observed her bond with Blu wasn't the strongest. She added: "He saw her and was like, 'That's my target' and then now he's wanting to kiss people in the challenge. "I just think, on paper, it looks like Remell came straight in for Alima, went for her and now they're in a couple. "Whereas it's not all those things." The villa couple previously butted heads when Remell kissed anyone but his partner in a challenge. Alima told him: 'I think you were so disrespectful, I'm not gonna lie…do you feel like you did everything right?' Their conversation continued, as Alima added: 'You say you like me and do things that just don't match, it's worse you can't even take accountability…maybe we're not compatible…" Following this - and after their kiss - Remell chose to stay coupled with Alima in the latest recoupling. It comes as a major twist sees two other girls have their spots in the villa put in jeopardy. It will be down to a new bombshell to decide who stays and who goes. 4 4 4

Dumped Love Islander Blu takes bitter swipe at rival Shea after head to head showdown
DUMPED Love Island hunk Blu Chegini has hinted his simmering feud with Shea Mannings is in full swing with a catty swipe after his show exit. The ITV2 matchmaking show's first evicted lad was revealed last week following a savage villa twist. 7 7 7 7 London construction worker Blu, 26, followed Sophie Lee, 29, out of the door, but left on frosty terms after a clash with bombshell Shea. The boys got into a heated row as they battled it out to stay, coming face to face as they argued their case. During the face off, they traded insults and The Sun told how the bad blood continued off-screen, before Blu was chosen by his Love Island co-stars to leave. A source told us at the time: "Neither of them wants to back down and while it doesn't get physical, they get into a real war of words and some of the things they said to each other were brutal. "Emotions were very high as they have both spent months trying to land their spot on the show, so neither one was going to back down easily." Yet it's clear those emotions are still strong for Blu. Back on home turf, he has taken a fresh dig at his love rival with a video posted to his Instagram grid. It showed him coming face to face with a lamppost, standing in a similar way to he did with Shea, as he shouted at the black post. In the video caption, he wrote: "POV You and Shea around the firepit," before he added on his grid: "I left." The significance of the inclusion of the lamppost came after his Love Island 2025 cast co-star Tommy branded Shea a "lanky lamppost" when he kissed his partner Megan in a challenge. Watch the awkward moment Love Island hunk completely forgets villa beauty's name and confuses her with All Stars girl Making it crystal clear he was referring to Shea, he put the phrase in his hashtags. Evicted Islander Sophie was quick to pick up on the dig and wrote: "It's going down." A second posted: "This shouldn't be this fun," as a third cheered: "You tell him." One then added: "Brilliant!!!" It came after Blu called out Shea's "laid back" attitude during his exit interview. BLU'S EVICTION The June 13 episode kicked off in explosive fashion as the two boys stated their reasons for wanting to stay. Blu said he wanted the chance to get to form a connection with someone, but Shea said he had already had his chance. Blu hit back and said he didn't feel that Shea had anyone who he'd be romantically interested in. But Shea fired back and confessed he still wants to get to know Shakira, but she insisted she only has eyes for Ben. They both failed to budge and could not reach a decision, meaning the power was handed over to their fellow Islanders. Each couple made their choice and in the end it was Blu who was given the boot, with the general consensus being he'd had enough time but Shea hadn't. 7 7 7

Love Island's Blu is already back in the UK and ‘demands justice' after savage villa exit
DUMPED Love Island star Blu Chegini is already back in the UK just hours after his savage exit from the villa. Last night viewers watched the Islanders vote to save new bombshell Shea Mannings over original villa boy Blu, evicting him from the show. 3 3 When both lads were left single at the end of Thursday night's recoupling, they were tasked with deciding which one should go home. Immediately, Shea and Blu stated their intent to stay, meaning the decision went to their co-stars. Shea won out with more Islanders feeling that Blu had exhausted his options in the villa, while the new arrival had yet to have a proper opportunity to pursue the girls. This afternoon Blu shared a video from the back of a car after returning to London. He said: "I want to say it's good to be back, but it isn't. I'd rather be back in Spain, but thank you for all the love and support. "My time in there was cut short, unfortunately. I didn't find the connection I was hoping for but it's Love Island, you don't know what you're going to expect, especially this year. "It's been a bit crazy. So looking forward to going back and chilling with friends and family." He then shared a post from fashion influencer Harvey Jeans that read "Justice for Blu Chegini!!!" In his exit Q&A, Blu seemingly took one final swipe at Shea as he lifted the lid on his final moments on the show. He explained: "We asked them [the Islanders] for their point of view as we were both really stubborn in that situation. Watch as Meg erupts in sweary rant and Helena storms off after watching the boys on Love Island "We weren't going to budge, so we had to get them to make the decision. "I felt like I had a stronger bond with everyone in there, obviously I'd been there a bit longer. "I was constantly trying to make a connection and exploring everyone. "I was making moves as quickly as I could, as opposed to Shea who was a bit more laid back." He went on: "Everyone had their own thoughts. "But listen, someone's got to go at the end of the day. "The way it went was better than I thought it would have gone; I had some nice things said about me and that meant a lot to me." 3 Love Island 2025 full lineup Harry Cooksley: A 30-year-old footballer with charm to spare.
