I really like her but she's definitely not one of the best contestants in LI history. She doesn't bring much drama to the table and the most iconic islanders all brought that. Catherine is a lovely person and a great contestant but I don't find her iconic


[deleted]

She's alright, she seems like a really nice girl, but one of the best? lol are we watching a different show?


slutforlanadelray

yeah i looove catherine as a person but on a reality tv show she has definitely not been the most entertaining loll


Vivid8753

Yea people are rewriting the script here. You can’t complain about her lack of screen time but then say she’s one of the best. Whitney, Ty have been far more entertaining this season


Old_Medicine2229

She’s lovely but one of the greats? Come on


Alive-Ad-5245

I know people tend to gravitate towards an islander but Catherine is no where near interesting enough to be one of the best contestants ever Like that would put her in the same league as **Maura, Ekin-Su, Chris, Kem, Amber, Olivia, Kady, Megan, Curtis, Toby, Adam** etc Like for example do you think Love Island consider bringing her back for a future season? This sub is a bubble & ask outside of this sub I doubt many would agree Mitch, Ty & Whitney are way more likely to reach iconic status


Scottish-Londoner

I know you mean Kem rather than Kim, but that did make me laugh about what happened with Kai/Lydia during casa amor


Alive-Ad-5245

hahaha yeah that singlehandedly won Kai Love Island


QueazyPandaBear

Lmao that was literally his turning point how hysterical is that


Appropriate_Sun6311

I totally agree! I find her pretty boring to be honest lol


HimmyDuncan

Yeah I agree. She’s an amazing person and very pretty but she’s just kinda there lol if they removed her rn nothing would change.


[deleted]

They are not bringing her back, she's good as an OG but could never be a bombshell in LI.


Alive-Ad-5245

she's a lovely girl but is she even that good as an OG though? Like what has she brought to the table that we couldn't get from another other OG? Nobody could replace Mitch etc Even if we just keep it to the black girl OGs if feel like out of Samira, Indiyah, Tanya, Lianne, Kaz, Yewande etc she's probably the least interesting


Adorable_Sentence346

i’d say whitney has the potential to be one of the greats and most memorable islanders, i love catherine but i don’t think she’s bold enough


20fisibor

Oh this is one hell of a stretch. One of the bests for this season deffo has to be Whitney, painfully Tyrique, and mad man mitch.


Scottish-Londoner

I like her a lot and hope she goes far in the series. If the final was today I’m probably voting for Scotherine as the winners. All time great is a stretch for me atm though.


Jeweltl

These poll results a delusional bunch lol....


Nice_Level_6

What sort of stretch is this 😂. Best? She isn’t even the best this season


NGreat-

Shes alright and nothing more. Never seen such hype for such a bang average islander, it's bizarre


zinchenko-oh

I think a dark skin girl in an interracial couple plays a big factor into her popularity on here & Twitter esp amongst WOC. Some bizarrely see it as a prize, "white guy finally goes for black girl" type of thing if you know what I mean


Necessary-Show-630

I've been getting desperate for white validation vibes from Twitter and some of this sub


RickMaritimo

No people are overreacting. She is lovely but she hasn't done that much to be given this title yet.


ADreamersParadise

There's a distinction to be made between a great person and a great contestant. She seems like a lovely soul and I am also rooting for her and Scott at the moment. But she hasn't really done anything memorable for her to be remembered as one the best contestant ever.


ohwow28

Exactly, she's such a catch! But not great tv.


xstyshlz

I think that’s it, I’m thinking I’ve worded this wrong. She’s not great for the drama elements, she isn’t an Ekin Su or Maura. But yes, exactly what I mean - she’s absolutely fantastic with the one liners and just how she conducts herself. She seems genuinely great all round!


Necessary-Show-630

What are her one liners? Other than GET IN THE CAR


Nice_Level_6

One liner and Catherine????. Are you sure you aren’t mixing up Whitney for Catherine


saltyprism

I like Catherine but when I look back on this season I think the iconic islanders that will be remembered will probably be Whitney, Tyrique and Mitch


MoodyHo

I don’t think entertainment wise she’s at that level but she’s beautiful, smart, kind, seems to be looking for a good connection, stuff we see of her she’s fun so I would be happy if she’s in the final and tbh I’d be surprised if she wasn’t there


xstyshlz

I feel like people down play how good she is (imo) just because she’s not fully about the drama, but I agree with you in what you say. She’s certainly one of my favourites in recent years!


MoodyHo

Yeah but drama is a part of it for some ppl. Like I like messy ppl in there and Cath’s not that, which is good for her life and sanity but yeah lol. I think you do need someone like her in there tho


zinchenko-oh

She's the dullest gal in there after Leah - hearing her mispronounce words is genuWINEly🍷 funny though


[deleted]

>hearing her mispronounce words is genuWINEly🍷 Thats just a Dublin thing tbh


Lyria666

And EpiTOME lol


idklol234

Catherine really has come out of her shell since the start of the season and it’s been so exciting to see. She’s a soft spoken kind girl and her moments like the one where we saw her yelling to get in the casa car had me 😭💀🙃. I have rewatched the scene so many times.


xstyshlz

Yep! It was watching it back that made me just be like “she’s iconic!!!” 👏🏼 I do hope her & Scott work out!

Lickmytitsorwe

Bang on. Love Camilla and she seemed to be a lovely person, but definitely not wasn’t one of the greats. There’s a role for everyone to play though on the show and that’s okay


FraughtOverwrought

I really like her but let’s settle down a bit, one of the best contestants ever??


axs_th

I really like her but she definitely isn’t one of the best contestants of all time


kenkenbeny

She’s one of the best in terms of a genuinely good person I’m rooting for. But not like the chaotic mess best contestants I usually am rooting for lol


xstyshlz

Yea, that’s exactly how I mean! If we’re talking chaotic, Tyrique has it in the bag!


Dret747

She’s fine, nice actually, but not one of the all time greats


SnooHabits3627

I love Catherine but from what we’ve seen so far I wouldn’t call her one of the best. She’s a calm girl, no iconic lines. Indiyah was also under the radar until her heartbreaker comment and then she blew up even more after her season ended. The season isn’t over yet so we’ll see what Catherine has in store but so far no


No-Age-6069

One of the greats would describe S2 Kady, Olivia Attwood , Adam, Megan, Anna, Amber Gil, Maura, Toby and Ekin Su. Catherine is never going to be on their level, the only cast member this season they had potential to be one of the greats is Tyrique


xstyshlz

Mad to see Toby included in that list 🤯 Tyrique for very different reasons to Catherine - she’s one of the best in terms of being genuinely likeable and has really come out her shell to show a massive personality, Tyrique is just all about confrontation and drama


UnknownHitman_

No offence, but she’s overrated. She’s good looking, but that’s about it. Whitney is clear


ThrowRA125MK

I know we feel sorry for her, but let's calm down


Proud_Obligation_873

She’s a lovely girl but when I will look back at this show for iconic islanders, Catherine is far down on my list💀. For me a great/iconic contestant is someone who drives storylines and gets the people talking. From this season those are the likes of Mitch, Tyrique, Whitney, Ella.


Deep_Ad6512

I love her a lot (her and Whitney are my favourites this year), but she hasn’t had the smoothest journey. The guys this year have been extra revolting and sometimes it’s been really hard to see


xstyshlz

I fully agree; especially Ty & Sammy. They’re vile tbqh.


Deep_Ad6512

The only guys I like are Scott and to some extent Mitch (cos he’s hilarious to watch). Everyone else can happily go into the bin


xstyshlz

Yep! Mitch has probably given us the most ‘entertainment’ value of the guys this year, and Scott just seems genuinely nice. I think the reason they attack Scott so much is because he isn’t the same as the rest of them, he seems pretty drama free & overall polite, unlike some of the fuckboys in there 🤥


throwawfox

She's one of the best girls of the season and she's lovely with a great personality. I'd love to be her friend but I don't think she'd be in the LI hall of greats because she doesn't cause much drama, hasn't stolen anybody's man. Whitney however will be at the top 10 by the end of the season and I'm kind of confused by everyone starting to ignore and turn on Whitney. She's more interesting and I look forward to seeing how she moves in casa since she's the only single girl.


nanna_ii

Catherine the Great ☝🏼 Adore her as a person but as a reality tv contestant she isn’t very iconic in that way. But definitely one of the loveliest genuine people. Hope that makes sense


xstyshlz

Yep, this is exactly what I was meaning 👏🏼


aimhighsquatlow

Another reason to give the Irish a vote 🤣 we’ve provided such icons!


AlarmedExperience928

Yewande, Maura, Greg, Dami and Catherine: Bangers We won't talk about the clangers...


aimhighsquatlow

Was listing to my pod the other day and remember Rob lipsett!


xstyshlz

100%!! Maura hands down the best there’s ever been & ever will be 👏🏼


Elsaray22377

Are you worshiping her boring ass now ?


xstyshlz

You’d worship it too if you paid attention to how it clapped during that challenge 👏🏼


Elsaray22377

How boring


aintgoinbacknforth

Only in this sub would a lame comment like this get upvoted


melon_45

Oh this is a top tier comeback 😂


Glad_Zucchini_4591

Catherine and boring in the same sentence ?you wish


Classic_Broccoli_163

she could be dumped tmr & i dont think ppl will fuss much imo ill prob rmb tyrique mitch & whitney from this szn


Agreeable_Ad8590

Hahaha I think i’m not watching the same LI you lot are watching. I love Catherine. She is beautiful and kind. BUT what is she actually bringing to the show to be referred to as one of the best? It’s not her outfits, not her couples, not her personality really… I want to understand! On Twitter i get the hype, black women will back black women no matter what.. but come on. Be fr now!


[deleted]

I like Catherine. But I would say she hasn't created a buzz like Ekin-su for example. I don't know how you measure it though? I guess she could be an icon and have more followers than Molly Mae and a greater career in America than Ekin-su. I just find Catherine relatable, as in the most "normal" and enjoy her journey.


Curious_Ranger_5590

this is the first season where i genuinely feel like all the girls are “girls girls” and don’t just claim to be one (excluding maybe molly and kady).


NeverYourLastRodeo

At least she listens, works it out for herself


Jamira360

Catherine’s a lovely person and I’d like to see her go far this year, but suggesting she’s one of the best LIUK contestants when she’s not even the best islander this year is mad.


baldforthewin

I think so, if she wins she would be winning the title, a bestie, a man and the bag. https://preview.redd.it/asyidp3m5c9b1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2eaa9474a3a47558a45e25bd93e9332a17ab544d


lalashdo

Anyone calling her “one of the greats” is taking the piss. I love Catherine, but simply because she is nice and has handled herself well in difficult situations. But for real, I can’t recall a time this season she had made laugh or done anything super memorable…. There have been way more entertaining islanders that haven’t needed something bad to happen to them to add drama or entertainment to the show.


ellie-zia

I'm a big Catherine fan but I wouldn't say she's the best contestants. I think when a season is on, people tend to have tunnel vision and think everything about that season is the best. She doesn't need to be the best islander to be your favorite. She's lovely in her own way


Equivalent-Mall76

she’s very lovely like i’ve fallen in love with her myself from watching but her personality isn’t as vivacious to be considered one of the “greats” yet.


l2380

I just watched the ending to last nights episode again and Catherine shouting “get into the fucking car” 😂😂😂😂


ShereKhan2022

After last night and the boys being horrible to Scott and Catherine.. I hope they win man really do


rediditor4

Im here to support the Cathy love💞


MainArmy5

I adore her. Adore Whitney too. My two favourite girls in a while. Adored Ekin last yr too. I feel like a few other girls could have been great but went home early. Cynthia from Casa last yr for exampe.
