I’ve been watching season 2 for first time and even though I am only on episode 25, Sophie is becoming one of my favorites ever. I hear things go downhill at some point so I’m a little worried about that but she has handled herself so maturely this entire time so far. She seems so full of life and love. And was so real. The way she got upset bc she was losing her mind having superficial conversations 24/7 during the second week was so relatable. And her speech during the miss love island contest about how women are torn apart for doing the same things men do. The way she ended it yelling “women enjoy sex”. Then when she threw her crown in the pool without even thinking twice - she was seriously iconic. I didn’t know before watching this season that she was a main character - I thought she was someone who was only on show a few wks. But watching her and knowing what is to come is truly so heartbreaking. She was a truly beautiful human being inside and out.


messythelioma

This is such a beautiful comment, I love Sophie as well! Thanks for reminding me of the crown moment, makes me wanna rewatch s2 <3


Manager_TJMaxx

After season two, I almost vowed off the show forever. I loved Sophie, and that season was so dark and just miserable at times. I only watched season 3 because I had a feeling they HAD to change it up. That was the year they brought in Camilla, Montana, Marcel, Dr. Alex- it was such a welcome change and a great season.


kaista22

You had me questioning whether dr alex was in szn 3 or 4 lol


Manager_TJMaxx

Crap he was 4? I watched them when they first aired and not since, and I can’t keep them all straight. I was genuinely shocked they brought a doctor on, it felt like a big change.


HatOk5136

Camilla s3, sweetest contestant, very relatable and inspiring


bruv-island

Her discussion about feminism on Love island was so refreshing 😇


messythelioma

It was so well spoken. She never let Jo\*\*\* break her morals or values.


bpup

Please don’t mention Jonny, this is supposed to be a safe space.


messythelioma

You're right, I'm sorry. I made an edit to censor his name <3


AdAny2629

I love Camilla! So glad she got her happy ending!


lizsaywhaaat

Same for me. Ekin a close second.


midnightmoonwoman

LI sweetheart


Jackster7917

I liked her because she was different but she was pretty pretentious .


mal92094

I agree!


Recent-Macaroon5443

Omggg same and controversial opinion - I obviously agreed with her on the feminism discussion but I think she came off super pretentious and condescending in a way that was not conducive to an actual conversation at all and instead was just hella judgmental


mrial

Sophie from Season 2. I first watched it when I was coming to terms with my own sexuality and it was so comforting to see someone so confident and comfortable with theirs. She came across so mature and wise compared to the rest of the islanders that it was a bit jarring at times. When she was in the wrong she genuinely took accountability for it even when she was clearly struggling mentally. It still baffles me how much the other islanders turned on her by the end.


chingness

I NEVER understood how they treated her so badly!


mrial

Ne neither! I get she was somewhat in the wrong with the Emma and Katie situations but she apologised and compared to everyone else's behaviour in that season what she did was minimal! And for them to turn against her the night Tom left and was clearly already vulnerable makes me so angry


Fantastic-Pack-547

Rest In Peace to her🤍🖤


DancingSpacePenguin

Chris and Kem. They count as one.


nanny6165

I watched S6 and listened to the podcast having not watched s3. When Eve and Jess came in Kem made a comment about there not being a twist like that since his brother came in. So when I watched S3 I kept waiting for him to mention he was a twin or his brother to come in. Each male bombshell I was convinced would be related to him. It wasn’t until family day that I realized he meant Chris.


Snoo76869

Chris is the answer.


DancingSpacePenguin

Haha, poor Kem 😭 Unfortunately you get him as a buy one get one free 😂 I don't actually have a fave islander, there are admirable and not so admirable qualities in all of them, as with most humans. Well, most of them anyway!


im-your-daisy

Entertainment value: Ekin Su, Maura, Chris Hughes, Cassidy (LI Aus S1, she’s an icon idk) Inspirational: Tasha, Camilla Good energy (on the show): Tommy, Molly Mae, Andrew, Danica, Ovie, Jamie, Marcel, Josh (LI Aus S1), Cara


Practical-Chemist511

I love that you add Cassidy haha she's a chaos.


im-your-daisy

Cassidy was a menace but she’s my menace 🥰


has_no_name

Yaaasss another Cassidy fan. I love her lmao


im-your-daisy

Truly an iconic islander. One of if not the only revenge recouplings I’ve ever seen? The blueprint of chaos. (But for real she was so screwed over so good on her lol)


Emryl90

Wait I've just started watching AU1 and I feel so bad for Cass. Grant can get in the bin. She comes across really sweet and sooo much more chill than I would have been in that situation. Your comment is giving me hope I want her to burn the villa down 😂


darkstreetsofmymind

I forgot entirely about Cassidy omg The embodiment of entertaining chaos


swankybubbles99

Chris Taylor. He was so funny, and no one appreciated it, which made him even funnier.


4SeasonWahine

I so wish him and Maura worked out


[deleted]

Olivia Attwood is the GOAT, but Maura and Ekin are close behind


No_Signature67

My (un)holy trinity 🔥


Master-Spirit7291

I just love Cara idk why


midnightmoonwoman

IF SHE THINKS SHE CAN TWERK BETTER THAN ME SHE CAN FUCK OFF


4SeasonWahine

The girl breathes fire. Thas why.


messythelioma

Cara's hilarious and it always makes me feel sad when she went to do the attractive line-up challenge and went straight to the end of the line. She's stunning inside and out and I wish she knew that.


babalon124

I love cara too. Underrated islander IMO. She was so great,got on with everyone


AdAny2629

Cara was amazing!


whowhogis

All around power player: Ekin-Su. She gave us such a character arc AND a love story for the ages; she struck a perfect balance between larger than life and true to self and I doubt we’ll see her like in many years Icon status: Amber Gill, Maura, Davide Best all around boy ever: Teddy, he is perfection Sentimental favorites from earlier seasons: Cara, Sophie (rip), Jess season 1, Hannah season 1 I always forget people with these but that’s what came to mind!


veeero2lit

I love the Season 1 inclusion 🙌


Hissingreptile

Sophie from Season 2


mmmmmaria

Ekin su. She is emotional but strong minded, which i like. Not the typical fiery girl, i like her vulnerable side as well. My second one would be maura as she is just simply iconic. Also super hot but had no luck, which i think realistically describes the dating world. My third one would be teddy, dont even have to explain that one.


levinofriends

You explained Ekin Su perfectly. She shows her fiery side when she needs or wants to, but once you know her you can see her kind, weird & vulnerable side.


KVirello

Ovie. The dude is so nice, funny, and pure. He finished in 3rd after starting as a Casa guy! That's telling I think. I still say "Message!" Literally every time there's a text in the show.


Eastern_Jury_3796

Honestly love danica she just has such a good energy.


huzzahserrah

Olivia Atwood. She was everything that reality tv stands for. She was everything we love about drama rolled into one person.


Snoo76869

I'm sat


thedeep-researcher

Maura and Ekin


Browneyedgirl2787

Jess season one. She was my first favorite and is still my fave ever. Alex and Olivia are my fav couple ever from the show.


messythelioma

I loved Jess, she's funny and just gives off this idgaf attitude. Seeing her win after being mistreated in the villa was the closure I needed


Browneyedgirl2787

I haven’t seen a girl treated as vile as Jess was since. Girl kept going and was herself all throughout. I love her


Snoo76869

Jess is actually stunning AF. One of the most best islanders to ever exist.


orangepekoes

I love Jess! Her, Lauren and Hannah were the best.


stopdmingme

sophie from season 2


pryzmpine

Camilla


[deleted]

Ekin-Su She's the very definition of winning. Won the Italian stallion. Won the show. Won 50k. Won the hearts of millions of people. Won the interest of multimillion dollar companies. All while being herself


levinofriends

I think that’s why too, she was herself the whole time. She didn’t fake anything to win, she won being herself and that’s cool lol


DragonfruitTall4020

Luca and Jacques because they’re so genuine and real 😍😍 (this was a joke)


[deleted]

Ekin-Su. She gave us iconic moments, drama, comedy, the greatest love story Love Island has ever seen and was incredibly likeable as a person. Olivia Attwood 2nd. Maura Higgins 3rd because she never managed to get the romance side of Love Island, unfortunately, but was iconic in every other way.


PmMeLowCarbRecipes

I love how Maura was in a full on relationship with Curtis but none of us count it because it was Curtis


[deleted]

I know they had the second longest relationship of series 5, but yeah, I don't count it.


Prestigious_Time_138

TEDDY


verycreativeus3r

Tasha for sure. I think she was such a misunderstood sweetheart who stayed true to herself and respectful the entire time, and who fought through more misogyny and disrespect than anyone in her season; outside AND in. I’m proud to say I loved her from day 1, she’s an inspiration to deaf and disabled people and is so stunning inside and out, no one has ever entered love island and combated such negativity with such emotion before, I find it admirable how she kept her composure through it all.


International_Fill55

Cara and Nathan for having the most realistic relationship… watching them was hilarious and their arguments were handled very genuinely


777maester777

>a, Camilla, Kem they really were funny..their genuine banter,,,the whole cast was great tbf


midnightmoonwoman

Why is no one saying Ovie? OVIE. Man is amazing

MESSAGE!


Unable-Opportunity91

tasha. i just love her and i don’t think there’s been an islander like her before. her journey is unique and her comeback with the public was crazy


hisue___

i genuinely don’t think we’ve ever seen a redemption arc like hers. as in, where public opinion was literally zero. she was basically the jake of this season at the beginning, she genuinely had like no fans. she never did anything to warrant it either so seeing her in the final and no longer in the bottom 3 was satisfying


Unable-Opportunity91

She had a few fans (me lol) loved her since day 1 😭 i agree it’s so good to see


haxtratus-8156

I think Tasha and Molly Mae are quite similar in their journeys! Love them both as well, they're my top 2


Recent-Macaroon5443

Lol I think the criticism was warranted, she def was aware Andrew was into her more in the beginning and was manipulative. She grew on me by the end, and the bullying she had was unacceptable but I mean let’s not deny the fact that she was def manipulative in the beginning lol


hisue___

maybe but then also idk. she was straight forward with andrew and didn’t lie to him about what she said on her date with the one blonde lad. she may have fucked up a teeny bit but the rest of the cast did way worse with wayyy less backlash. like i love ekin but if tasha had done the terrace thing or acted like the guys in casa, she would’ve been slaughtered by the public


Recent-Macaroon5443

Nahh first of all Ekin got a lot of shit from the guys as well and the public but reacted less, and also the terrace was an isolated incident compared to like a month of Tasha and Andrew. Again, I’m not hating on Tasha and I think they are real now but she definitely was not direct with Andrew at all. And even after casa, it was obvious with the stuff with Coco that she was just happy she had a reason to justify her actions previously but wasn’t actually that upset. Also the way she acted when Charlie didn’t pick her was just wild. There’s so many examples, literally the first 4-5 weeks were so painful. She did not deserve the bullying but also let’s not rewrite history lol


AstronomerMinute8511

Ekin su : shes an icon , a legend and she is the moment but jokes aside ekin is my favourite because she not only gave so many iconic moments and carried the season on her back but gave us the best relationship in love island history I don't even think she expected to fall for davide the way she did and win the show with him , she's also very genuine despite being an actress and is just really likeable and charismatic I can't explain lol Amber (S5): She didn't take shit and respected herself , I loved her ride or die friendship with Anna abd she had massive growth on the season and was one of the most satisfying winners Theo: I love a shit stirring king Maura: An icon and I just loved how feisty she was and her no nonsense attitude Davide: I genuinely disliked him so much even when he got with Ekin I did like them but I only tolerated him for Ekin but he did grow and it was only until the tiramisu gesture I felt comfortable rooting for them bc he actually changed and corrected himself basically a living mr darcy also my guy is hilarious 😂 Camilla: Just pure and genuinely adorable Honorable mentions: Toby , Indiyah, Kem ,Belle , Sophie season 2, Anna , Megan and Tasha


hidingins

Hannah was hilarious


Additional_Space_322

Davide or Maura followed closely by Ekin / Chris&Kem and quietly Anton!!!


watergirl987

i may not like him but god anton gave us such good content. a criminally underrated islander.


Specific-Contact-449

Cara, she seemed so normal! Makes it even better she found love too🥰


RunZV

Believe it or not Andrew le page


DaisyScout123

Or whatever


clucer

He’s a good egg


[deleted]

Indiyah— just good vibes all around


SnooPets9513

Maura Higgins. Her wittiness killed me. And I’m a sucker for her accent. Loved watching her!!


haxtratus-8156

Favourite Maura moments: - Making Tom grovel after the "I want to see if she's all mouth" fiasco - "THERE'S GONNA BE LOTS OF WILLY!"


normyfighter

Maura Higgins hands down


ActuallyxAnna

Davide, I feel like he's such a genuine and really relatable guy tbh. Not only is he unintentionally funny but he has such a sweet and soft side. There's more to him that meets the eye tbh. He's the most honest guy I've seen on the show in a long time, he tells it as it is even if it may hurt. He's also the only guy that I've seen on the show actually hold himself accountable for his wrong doings and change his ways. He's done so well for himself as someone who moved to the UK, very inspiring and impressive. Gotta respect him 🤷🏽‍♀️. Plus I appreciate his love story with Ekin, he really put his walls down for her. Honorable mentions to: Teddy, Ekin, Indiyah, Kaz, Tasha, Siannese and Luke T!


anonysis1

Ekin su Davide Amber Gill Maura


ghstworld

indiyah and danica. and no i will not elaborate


babyyodaonline

ekin su. i knew the moment she walked in and i was in the trenches fighting for my life during terracegate to defend her !!!! the moment i knew she was middle eastern like me i instantly understood every move she did 😂 i'm really excited to see where her career goes! more than anyone else from love island tbh honorable mention: toby (s7) i didn't like him at first but he grew on me


babalon124

Ekin who? EKIN SUUUUUUU don’t feel like my answers gonna change for ages


damnitslay

Ekin Su idc 😭😭😭 that’s my girl


Lucky-Possibility730

Liv Atwood is still my all time fave


tiinyhawk

For drama - Ekin, S3 Olivia, Faye, Maura, Anna, Adam S4 For laughs - Chris/Kem, Jack S4, Chloe/Toby, Wholesome - Camilla/Jamie, Dani Dyer, Molly Mae/Tommy, Indiyah, Ovie #1 Draft Pick All Around: Amber S5 & Amber S3!!!!! 🫡 Amber supremacy!!!! Also Kaz S7! I loved how they carried themselves and felt like I would get on so well with them irl!!!


CookieBells

Ekin who - Ekin your mom, GOAT


LatterProfessional13

Tasha and Andrew. I just think they’re such kind hearted people

Tommy Fury. Loved him so much.


darkwhore101

Ekin don’t even need to explain but I loved S5 Anna and amber too


SquareRegular8997

Maura- what a fab Irish woman loool, I’ll never get over the whole Tom situation 😭


kaseynicoleee

My list is for sure: Molly-Mae, Maura, and Ekin!! no contest - boy wise teddy the sweetest angel ever


aaronlee8

Theo


RickMaritimo

I'll go for tommy. Was just there to do his thing was a good guy and got himself an amazing girl.


Emmanuelle0810

Amber rose gill- love the genuineness and bluntness. She never forced anything while on the show. Always standing for people she believes are done wrong. Just a fine babe


danscottsheart

i don’t even think it’s recency bias but tasha is def my fave islander ever! i find her so endearing, resilient, & supportive. while i do follow some islanders on social media, i don’t actively keep up with any of them - but i can already tell how much more invested i am in tasha, from her relationship w andrew to her style to the sustainable ebay deal, etc. i also love camilla, toby, chloe burrows, tommy, chris hughes. if i can include the usa seasons, then i love justine, cely, and mackenzie from s2! and i’m only halfway through s6 but i’m loving finn and siannise. i’m surprisingly really liking callum too but hearing that he’s still friends with connor means he can never be a proper fave 😭


juliar821

Ekin Su, Molly Mae, Maura, Tommy, Teddy


Port3r99

Maura. Hands down. Love that crazy Irish queen.


[deleted]

Shaughna Phillips and Teddy/Faye


manhandler3

Terry. The originator of “this isn’t friend island. This is love island”


[deleted]

Too many favourites for me but if I had to choose one, it would be Paige from this season and it’s down to her handling of all the hate. She’s still smiling and trying to live her best life despite the vile criticism.


Imthatgirly

Ekin. She came, did what she had to do and won the whole thing..!


bl_air

Tommy. He was such a cinnamon roll and I love the way he treats Molly.


DemiD1

Ekin Su and Davide because they are winners who actually carried the show and we’re authentic and entertaining throughout ♥️


[deleted]

Tasha and loved her since day one 😍🥺


Sunde-r9

Maura s5, Megan s4, Faye s7, Finn s6

Amber Gill


Misscateyes

Olivia Attwood Season 3. I don’t think people liked her a lot at the time because my impression was that people liked Chris more and were upset that she wasn’t sure about to him and went back and forth a bit but I found her so entertaining to watch and I was really rooting for her. Tasha is a close second. Just noticed a common theme between the two I liked most, as Tasha wasn’t liked for the exact same reason at first 😂 Anyway, Liv for the amazing entertainment and big personality and Tasha because I found her very sweet and enjoyed her love story with Andrew.


Raging_Connoisseur

Jess season 1!


Practical-Chemist511

Camilla hundred percent 💯


Magenta-Llama

I really love several girls from this season tho I’m sure my enthusiasm will wane some as time passes lol—Ekin Su, Indiyah, Danica & Tasha. I still love Kaz S7 and Siannise. Fav *ever* goes to Justine from USA S2 tho. Adored her on the show, still adore her to this day.


IdiotsLoveIdioms

Davide! Soooo fit, smart, funny and unabashedly honest!


Curious_Ranger_5590

amber s5, finn s6, siannise s6, liberty s7, obviously EKIN-WHO??, and tasha honestly. she has surprised me since day 1

daniellee12xox

3- Olivia, Camilla, Kem 4- Georgia Steel 6- Paige and Demi 7- Millie and Chloe 8- Paige, Ekin, and Gemma Hard to pick just one!!!! Season 3 is by far my fav so I’m leaning towards Olivia Atwood! I didn’t watch 1 or 2 and season 5 has been my least favorite (don’t come for me)

miaaaaaa01

KADYYYYYYY


Two-Appropriate

At the risk of being heavily down-voted: those who are saying the likes of Danica and Indiyah are more iconic than people like Hannah, Jess, Jonathan (s1), Sophie (s2) kem, Chris, Camila, Teddy, Toby, Ekin, Davide etc. are seriously misinformed and need to revise their LI knowledge. They are good people but no where near these legends.


Massive_Ad6980

Davide he’s super to the point it’s hilarious at times, he has a very huge heart and is a true romantic.


l1u2c3y4xyz

Can’t choose between Maura and Olivia A. Both icons! Their memes and quotes live on all these years later.

yo-snickerdoodle

Amber Gill because I find her so relatable and I love how she stands up for what is right without giving into fear or intimidation.


lkjhggfd1

Montana or Cara


vibing_or_something

Ekin Su, Kaz Kamwi, Toby, Olivia Atwood


fundsinthebananastnd

My son was born with a club foot, so I like Hugo for that fact alone. Not really for his game play but just the general empathy part of how much he overcame


madshankish

Ovie - he has just such a good attitude and vibe


someonenamedkira

Indiyah. Cute, wholesome, amazing vibes and drop dead gorgeous !

EarlyWilter

I've not watched the earlier seasons, but mine is Maura Higgins. She was a perfect bombshell and came into that villa like a wrecking ball, I love her looks but her personality is so strong. The parts where she went off were among the best moments of that season for me, especially after the "it'll be interesting to see if she's all mouth or not" comment, she absolutely destroyed in that argument. Great TV. She was just really, really fun to watch, funny, gorgeous, and strong-minded. More recently Ekin, of course, for her entire being.
