00:19Maura Higgins, iconic bombshell and Love Island Aftersun host.
00:23What's going on?
00:25Sophie?
00:26What are you doing this summer?
00:27Oh, babes.
00:28Like, I'm in Fiji, and I am absolutely slammed.
00:33I can't explain now.
00:34It's top secret, but I'm double-bucked.
00:37I need you to host aftersun for me.
00:39Anything for you, Maura.
00:40But don't get too comfy.
00:41I am coming back.
00:43It is my sofa.
00:44Did you hear what I said?
00:46I've got this.
00:47Sophie?
00:48Sophie?
00:49Sophie!
00:50Did you hear what I said?
00:52You ain't ready for me.
01:00She's the Love Island host from Down Under, who told me to tell you she's Australia's answer
01:06to Kate Middleton.
01:08It's Sophie Monk!
01:10Is this thing on?
01:12G'day, America.
01:14I'm Sophie Monk, and this is Love Island USA Aftersun.
01:18Do you know why you ain't ready for me?
01:33Ola!
01:34That's Fiji and Phil welcome to a brand new season of Aftersun.
01:38Now, we'd normally be in the Aftersun studio, but it's currently flooded and out of bounds.
01:44So instead, for one night only, we're coming to you direct from the villa.
01:49Now, the islanders have all been safely locked away, and they have no idea what we're doing
01:54here.
01:55It's so exciting!
01:57Coming up, I'll be pulling Ariana Maddox for a chat.
02:01Hannah and Amaya will be giving us the inside story.
02:04And we'll be hitting up Alundria and Shelley live in the V-Chart.
02:10And with me to unpack a very dramatic first week are three people who've been there, done
02:16that, and got the personalised water bottle.
02:19Together, they created plenty of drama on Love Island Games.
02:22First up is iconic pocket rocket and human fidget spinner, Sally Basker.
02:29Woo!
02:31Thanks, sir.
02:34And the guy everyone's allowed to call an a-hole, because it's his name.
02:40It's Callum Hull.
02:42I love that.
02:44It's six.
02:46And what she lacks in height, she makes up for in volume.
02:50It's Jess Lucerto.
02:52Woo-hoo!
02:53Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
02:56Thanks for joining me, guys.
02:58Thanks for having me on.
02:59Thanks for having me on.
02:59It's so exciting.
03:00How bizarre coming back to the island, how does it feel?
03:03So nostalgic to be back here, and I can't believe it's been one year since last time we were here.
03:07It's gone so quick.
03:08Really?
03:09One year?
03:09And I've got to ask, have you, like, have you guys hooked up?
03:13I don't know, I'm getting a vibe.
03:14She wishes.
03:15I'm like, do not disrespect me like that.
03:18No, he's like my brother.
03:20Oh, he's like, yeah.
03:21The thought of kissing him is like...
03:22Incestual, yeah.
03:23All right.
03:23Strictly friends.
03:24All right.
03:25Callum, last year they surprised you with a reunion with Deb.
03:30Yes, I know, and I'm still recovering from it to this day.
03:34Are you single now?
03:35Yes, I'm single now, yeah.
03:37Single, ready to mingle.
03:38Any people you've ghosted in the last 12 months?
03:42Um, there's a few I've ghosted in the last 12 months.
03:45I don't know, I lost count.
03:46Well.
03:47Oh, no, no.
03:49Bring them out.
03:49Right now, is no one.
03:52I'm just kidding.
03:54Oh, my God, I was stressed.
03:56There's only like 12 girls rolling in right now.
03:58Lane, I'm up.
03:59Got my heart racing early on, huh?
04:00That got my heart racing for you.
04:04Jess, now I've heard you've just celebrated a year and a half with your man.
04:08Yeah.
04:08What's your secret?
04:09It's definitely not dating an islander.
04:12Oh.
04:13That's not me.
04:14No shade to all the male islanders, but like, they're just not for me, eh?
04:17Oh, okay.
04:18And how's it going?
04:19Smooth?
04:19Yeah, I'm a housewife now.
04:21What do you mean?
04:22Like I...
04:23Ironing?
04:23Yeah, cook clean, sit on the couch.
04:26Oh, that's what you do?
04:27Watch movies.
04:27You stay at home?
04:28No, not really.
04:29I have to work.
04:29I have to work.
04:31Yeah, I dated for love, not for money.
04:34What's that mean?
04:34He's poor.
04:35No.
04:36Oh, he's broke.
04:36No, no, no, no.
04:37He's not poor.
04:38He's not poor.
04:38No.
04:41So, anyone that doesn't know, I posted Love Island Australia from the beginning.
04:46So, for me, Callum and Jess, it's like a reunion of, like, season four, isn't it?
04:50Yeah.
04:51It's surreal, isn't it?
04:52Yeah, isn't it weird?
04:54But here we are.
04:55Doing Love Island USA.
04:56And I'm the only American.
04:58That is bizarre.
05:00I'm representing.
05:04I'm in the wild.
05:05There's a lot of news to discuss.
05:06But before we deep dive into the class of 2025, it was a massive first week in the villa.
05:12But it was over faster than foreplay in the hideaway.
05:15Here's a refresher.
05:35It was just like a little cute young love vibes.
05:37I just pray he's not a fuck boy.
05:40Love you, bye.
05:41Bye.
05:41Oh, I didn't mean to say that.
05:43I almost said it.
05:43I almost said it.
05:46You all got kissed.
05:48Courtesy of two new bombshells.
05:51I feel like we're on the same page about where we're at.
05:54It's the girl who stole my face.
05:57Oh my God.
05:57We have a little smooch.
05:59I don't know.
06:01What the fuck?
06:02If he makes me look like a fool.
06:08You must decide if you want to couple up with Sierra or Charlie.
06:16I don't like this.
06:18You don't have to play that.
06:20I want to couple up with Nick.
06:25I feel kind of small right now.
06:29Is she okay?
06:31I don't think she meant any harm.
06:33Don't be in private and say something like that.
06:35I get that we're open.
06:37There's no way you can be mad at me for that.
06:38Uh-huh.
06:39When you're yesterday, I always be mad at you for kissing somebody.
06:42Are you serious?
06:44She's someone special.
06:46I was just trying to keep it real cute and simple.
06:48Nothing over here has ever been cute and simple.
06:53I am a mom.
06:54Oh my God.
06:55Look at me.
06:56Oh my God, I can't.
06:58And right now I still like you like.
07:00Okay.
07:05Boy, did it get Steve.
07:11I am in this uncomfortable spot.
07:14I maybe like him more than he likes me.
07:22Game's not over yet.
07:23Is there room for more?
07:28What's mine is mine and don't fucking touch it.
07:32I don't like her.
07:33I just already don't like her.
07:35I'm like, oh shoot.
07:36Are we back on?
07:40You obviously have not left his mind.
07:43It feels good to be back.
07:51It's so good.
07:53Wild.
07:54I can't believe that's only one week.
07:56Yeah.
07:57Honestly, they are stirring up some serious shit.
08:00And early, hey?
08:01It's early.
08:01Very early.
08:03It's like this whole week, my jaw has been on the bloody floor.
08:06What shocked you the most?
08:07The cliffhanger that we literally just got left off.
08:10Heck with that.
08:10That was mental.
08:12We hate it, but we love it, don't we?
08:13I know.
08:14I hate it, but I love it.
08:14I know.
08:15The love triangle between Nick, Bella and Sierra is just crazy.
08:19That's crazy.
08:19I'm barking Nick.
08:20I really like Nick.
08:21You do?
08:22Yeah.
08:22And at the end of that episode, I was hoping that he didn't kiss Sierra after like making
08:27up with like Bella and starting to progress.
08:29And then my boy Nick's just in the fuller booth, lipsing up Sierra.
08:33I know.
08:34But do you like him because he's a player?
08:36No, I like him because like.
08:38Let's be real.
08:38You like him.
08:39Yeah.
08:39I mean, he's playing the game.
08:40Like, yeah, I think if I was in there, I'd be good friends there.
08:43And to be honest, that fuller booth, I'm not going to lie, is going to get people into
08:46a lot of trouble because there's actually photographic evidence.
08:50Yeah, I'm so glad.
08:51You can't watch.
08:51I did have one.
08:52Yes.
08:52So girls, what do you think about him?
08:54Listen, he's hot as hell.
08:55I would drink his bath water.
08:56I really would.
08:59But the way he's moving is crazy.
09:01Like, I love to watch it, but I would hate to be either one of those girls.
09:04So Bella, or Bill dash R, as people are calling her, finally kissed a boy last night.
09:09And then another one.
09:11And then another one.
09:12I loved it.
09:13I think like the first couple of days, she was sort of like, I'm going to try to be like
09:17this angel girl and like not kiss anyone.
09:20But I think she realized that did her a really big disservice because it's not like real life
09:24where guys are going to be like, oh, like, you know, that's so respectful.
09:27Guys are going to be like, boring.
09:28Let's go to the next bombshell, which is exactly what happened.
09:31And I think at that moment, she was like, you know what?
09:34Like, if I continue to play this safe, I'm going to lose out on the guy that I like.
09:38And that's why she went wild.
09:40And I'm bloody here for it.
09:41I was so shocked, though.
09:42I didn't expect it.
09:43I thought she was going to really like hold out for a lot longer.
09:45Oh, did you?
09:46Yeah, but she went from like zero to hero in a matter of one challenge.
09:49I was like, she's moving mad.
09:50And I would love to see it again.
09:52Same.
09:53I'm not going to lie.
09:53It's like she broke the seal and she was like, look, look, look, look, look.
09:58Absolutely.
10:02Yeah, it was so good.
10:03Let's move on to Huda and Jeremiah.
10:05And the secret is finally out that Huda is a mom.
10:09What do we make of his reaction?
10:11Do you think it was a good one?
10:12No.
10:13I think it scared him off.
10:14Yeah.
10:14Yeah, I do.
10:16Well, first of all, his initial reaction was to like not even be able to look at her.
10:19He started saying shit like, oh, um, well, we're good right now.
10:23Yeah, right now.
10:25And he never used to speak like that.
10:27Right.
10:28Right.
10:28We can start to see an attitude shift in him because he seemed like really invested in
10:33it at the start.
10:34But maybe it just takes time to process, you know, like takes time.
10:37Do you think Huda should have said it earlier?
10:39I think personally she should have said it a bit earlier.
10:42Yeah.
10:42Because I feel like she was withholding our information and it is a bit of a deal breaker
10:45for some people, but I don't know.
10:47That's the thing that I feel like I love, I love a single mother.
10:50Shout out to my mom.
10:51Like there's just so, you know, like that's so, that's such a beautiful thing.
10:55And I think it's amazing that she's like owning it and all of that.
10:57So that's why I'm like, I wish she would have said it sooner to set herself up for the
11:02most success.
11:03Yeah.
11:03She, I think she likes him a lot.
11:05I think she likes him a lot.
11:06Yeah.
11:07You could tell by her reactions in the challenge today when the bombshell came in, her face was
11:11not impressed.
11:13She was fuming.
11:14Yeah.
11:15She was fuming.
11:15What do we think of Hannah and Amaya?
11:17They made a pretty big impact.
11:19They came in really hot.
11:20I love their entrance.
11:21Like everyone's faces would like dropped as soon as they saw them.
11:24And I was like, I'm eating this up.
11:25I, you know, you know what got me the sex eyes that when Hannah did the sex eyes, she
11:31did the sex eyes.
11:32She was like, when she got up to third base, she put that thing in her mouth and she was
11:35like, I can't even do it.
11:37I can't even do it.
11:38I can't even do it.
11:38I thought, yeah.
11:41I felt things in my body.
11:42Kellen, can you do those eyes?
11:44No, I can't.
11:45I don't even want to accept it.
11:46Give me your best sex eyes.
11:47It was a madness.
11:49I'm not going to lie.
11:49Like if I was a bombshell, I would have loved to come in on that challenge.
11:53I feel like that challenge was wild.
11:55Like what better way to enter the villa, you know?
11:57It wasn't a killer challenge.
11:59I reckon it was one of the best challenges I've seen on any life.
12:02I agree, we were screaming.
12:04So Hannah's been like kind of working it with Austin and Charlie.
12:08What do you think is going to happen?
12:09Do you guys actually think Hannah's feeling that though?
12:12No way, bro.
12:12There's no way she is.
12:13Oh God, really?
12:14Like, no, Austin looks like he reads with his finger.
12:18I'm not reading my finger.
12:20So do I, what's wrong with that?
12:21Yeah, or like the ruler, you go down the page of the ruler, like line by line.
12:25That's amazing.
12:26I feel like Ace needs to sit them both down and give them a 101 on Riz because those boys,
12:31instead of just having a normal conversation with the girls, they're trying hard, you know?
12:36Oh, can you be a try-hard Riz?
12:38Yeah, you can be, you can try too hard, you know?
12:41Like Charlie, for example, like, you know, he's talking in third person and stuff.
12:44It's just a bit weird.
12:46Yeah!
12:46He used the same line twice.
12:47With the girls at the dog, it's like, he only has one move.
12:51Yeah.
12:52Yeah.
12:52But the fuck thing is, is he's got so much potential.
12:54He's so hot.
12:56He's got the accent.
12:57He's got the height.
12:58He's got the rig.
12:59Like, he can absolutely go in there and smash it.
13:03The thing is, like, when, like, you guys can probably vouch for this.
13:05Like, when you're back home, you're probably, like, the top dog.
13:09Like, you're the funny one in the group.
13:11The hottest one in your group.
13:12You're the hottest one in the group.
13:12But then you go into Love Island and you're with all the big dogs.
13:17Yeah.
13:17All the hottest people at your school.
13:19Yeah.
13:19And then you're like, oh my God, like, I've literally been humbled.
13:22It's like a shock for them.
13:24Yeah.
13:24And they don't know how to dig themselves out of that.
13:26That's right.
13:26And he had a bad start, to be fair.
13:29Like, when he didn't get picked, like, no girl stood up to couple up with him.
13:33Like, as a guy, you don't want that.
13:34Especially when you're a bombshell coming in.
13:36Oh, that hurt.
13:37Yeah, like, that would have dented his ego massively to begin with.
13:40So already he's on the back foot and he's just kind of, like, shoveling shit uphill.
13:43You know what I mean?
13:44Like, it's a big hill, you know?
13:46Okay.
13:47Thank you so much, guys.
13:49Brewery chat.
13:50We'll discuss the rest of our Islanders later.
13:52But for now, give it up for our panel, everybody.
13:55Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo.
13:56You guys are awesome.
13:57Yeah, we're awesome.
13:58Time for a quick break, but don't move a muscle.
14:02Because we're about to get a visit from the queen of Love Island, USA, Ariana Maddox.
14:07They'll be right here, right after this.
14:23Welcome back to Aftersun USA.
14:27Joining us now, an absolute superstar, who I've been fangirling over since the first time she's slow-mo walked into
14:34the villa.
14:35I'm really hoping I don't get too starstruck and embarrass myself, but I can't make any promises.
14:40Give it up for the one and only Ariana Maddox.
14:43Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo.
14:45Hi!
14:48Best time of life.
14:50You're talking about fangirling.
14:52Oh, stop.
14:52Oh, my God.
14:53I've been fangirling over you for years.
14:56Yes.
14:56Oh, stop.
14:57I started following you and you followed me back and I was like to my husband, you don't understand, you're
15:01following me.
15:02Oh my god, no, I literally said the same thing to my best friend because, so Love Island Australia was
15:07my first Love Island.
15:09Really?
15:09Yeah, so I've been a huge fan of you since I started watching Love Island and my best friend and
15:16I just absolutely died when you followed me, so.
15:20Oh my god, this is the best family of life.
15:22Okay, so I followed all your love life, but how's it going with Love Island?
15:27It's great, I'm obsessed with this cast, I'm obsessed with this season already, I'm obsessed with all the new touches
15:34to the villa, I'm over the moon, so happy to still be able to be a part of this incredible,
15:40incredible show.
15:41And you get to wear some killer outfits.
15:43Yeah, we get to play around with all the different looks, the different hairstyles, I mean these are things that
15:48you don't really like to do in their real life.
15:51It's just not quite the same.
15:52No, they should have seen us earlier.
15:54Yeah, exactly.
15:55It's the rain.
15:56Oh, there's my cheeks.
15:57Oh, look at that bottom though.
15:58Is that real?
15:59It is real.
16:02Well, you absolutely killed it last season.
16:05Were you surprised how big the show became?
16:07For me personally, it's not surprising, it just surprises me how long it's taken everybody to get on board.
16:14Because I've been in love with Love Island USA and Love Island across the world for so long, and I
16:21talk about all the time to anyone who will listen, how great I think the show is.
16:26So it was surprising to me that it just took people so long.
16:30Well, let's talk about this season.
16:31How is it shooting the opening number?
16:33Oh my gosh, it was a lot of fun.
16:35We shot it on a sandbar.
16:37So when we first pulled up on a boat to this patch of sand, it was still underwater.
16:43What do you mean?
16:44Yeah, it disappears and reappears with low tide and high tide.
16:48And then on our way out, a couple hours later, it was gone again.
16:53So it's only actually there for a few hours a day.
16:56Yeah, and there was nowhere to pee on the sandbar.
16:59Oh, okay.
17:00So there were some people going in the ocean.
17:02It was definitely not me.
17:03I mean, everyone pees in the ocean.
17:04It's natural.
17:05Yeah, it's natural.
17:06It's probably like part of the ecosystem.
17:09I don't know how that works.
17:10I'm not a scientist.
17:11Me neither.
17:11Far from it.
17:14Okay, I need the tea on night one.
17:16What was the atmosphere like?
17:17I think everyone was a little bit nervous.
17:19I think everyone was a little bit reserved.
17:21Obviously, we were playing a pretty racy game right out the gate.
17:26And I think a lot of them were kind of scared to be open and out there.
17:31And of course, I'm sitting there encouraging all of it.
17:34Because I love mess and I love drama.
17:36And I love making people make out.
17:39Yeah.
17:39Who doesn't?
17:40But night two.
17:41Yes.
17:42You really saw them, I think, with the help of blindfolds and secrecy.
17:46Yeah.
17:46To start to really come out of their shells.
17:48I'm so glad we did that.
17:50Yeah.
17:50Because I think it really allowed people to kind of, I don't know, be themselves.
17:56Do what they actually want.
17:57And not be afraid of what someone else is going to say or think.
18:01Yeah, that's right.
18:01Yeah.
18:02It was very clever.
18:02I loved that.
18:03I was like, we should do this all the time.
18:06Forever.
18:07Forever.
18:07Everyone should date blindfolded.
18:08It would be amazing.
18:09Blindfolded dating.
18:10Blindfold Island.
18:11It's the next show that we're going to come out only on Peacock.
18:15All right.
18:16We have to talk about the secret kiss challenge on night two.
18:19How loud were the kisses?
18:21Some of them were loud.
18:22Really?
18:23I feel like most people were really good about walking over to someone quietly.
18:27And they couldn't hear it?
18:28I think there was some confusion, too, because I was walking around a lot.
18:32Right.
18:32So I think sometimes they weren't sure, especially I feel like that's when Jeremiah probably thought
18:36it was Huda that got up.
18:37Right.
18:37Because I was lingering a little bit, shuffling my feet a little bit to try to throw them off.
18:43I almost wanted to stir the pot a little bit.
18:45Right.
18:46And make them think that it was...
18:47That everyone's doing it.
18:48You're like, go do it.
18:49Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:49But then some of them, they would be super quiet, and then they would get up to the person
18:53and start kissing, and then all of a sudden the kiss itself is like just this loud smack.
18:59My favorite was when you went, whoopie fell.
19:02Well, you know, the girls all have fabulous full glam on, and the lip combos are...
19:07They are perfect.
19:09And they're not for men.
19:09But then, of course, they're not...
19:11It'll give it away.
19:12Exactly.
19:12And then your secret is out.
19:15Yeah.
19:15So you've got to be really diligent.
19:17Mm-hmm.
19:18Especially if you're trying to...
19:19You've got their back.
19:20Sorry.
19:20I do.
19:21And normally I wouldn't with a guy.
19:24Yep.
19:24But in that moment, it was like, I've got to have everyone's back.
19:27Yeah, that's right.
19:28Because I need all the secrets to be safe.
19:30Exactly.
19:30It's early days, so I won't hold you to it, but who's your week one crush?
19:35Ooh.
19:35I think my week one guy crush is ace.
19:40Really?
19:41Why?
19:41Yeah.
19:42I just think everything that comes out of his mouth is either funny or interesting.
19:47I don't know that I would say he's who?
19:49I would want a date in the villa.
19:51Right.
19:51But he's giving me what I need from Islanders.
19:54Right now.
19:55I don't like when people lock it down day one.
19:57That's my pet peeve.
19:59I just can't stand it.
20:00I'm like, we're not here to do that.
20:02Right.
20:02My girl crush, Alandria, is kind of everything to me.
20:08Yeah.
20:08There's something about the way that Alandria is able to clock everyone else's bullshit.
20:13Right.
20:13The way that she pointed out to Huda that she felt like it was a bit of a red flag
20:18that
20:18Jeremiah was so possessive after that first kissing challenge.
20:22Clever.
20:23I was like, ooh, I like that.
20:24Yep.
20:25I just think that she has her head on her shoulders.
20:27She makes me laugh.
20:29The breast milk comment had me on the floor.
20:32And I mean, the body-oddy-oddy.
20:36The challenge with the baseball game, I was just dying over her.
20:42Yeah.
20:43Incredible.
20:44Give me your highlight of the week.
20:45My highlight of the week, I think, was the baseball challenge.
20:49It was a moment where I saw everyone having fun.
20:53Even Belle Dashie was out there letting loose and living her best life.
20:58And I just felt like it was something that these islanders really needed.
21:01Because I do feel like things have gotten pretty serious already in the first couple of days.
21:07And it was nice to see everyone just kind of...
21:10Lighten up.
21:11Lighten up and have fun.
21:12That's what it felt.
21:13Slip and slide around.
21:14And, you know, balls in their mouths.
21:16But the islanders can cause so much drama, can't they?
21:19Yeah.
21:19It's really fun.
21:20Next minute, like, the whole feel is like a put-down.
21:23Yeah.
21:23And I can only imagine what it's like being in this pressure cooker environment.
21:28Yeah.
21:28How high emotions are running all the time.
21:30And I feel like they're all doing such a good job of staying true to themselves.
21:35Yeah.
21:36I think we're off to a really, really good start.
21:39Yep.
21:39Okay, so I, as you know, am such a huge, huge fan of yours.
21:43And I was wondering how it was filming that intro with Maura.
21:47So I maybe snuck into the editing room?
21:49No, you didn't.
21:51Uh, yeah.
21:52Take a look.
21:53For real?
21:54For real.
21:57What's my line?
21:59Maura Higgins.
22:01Iconic bombshell.
22:02And...
22:03Oh, fuck, mate.
22:04Maura Higgins?
22:05Love Island.
22:06Oh, fuck, sorry.
22:07Is this thing on?
22:09Oh, shit, sorry.
22:10This is Love Island.
22:13Oh, it's so half the show.
22:15Oh, god.
22:16Oh, shit.
22:17I was going to say it wrong again.
22:18G'day, America.
22:19And welcome to...
22:20Oh, far out.
22:20I'm so sorry.
22:21Just let me get it.
22:23I'm so from that.
22:30So you can see I did it in one take.
22:32Yeah.
22:32One take wonder.
22:34Nailed it.
22:34Oh, we don't have to, do we?
22:36That wasn't live.
22:37Like this.
22:40Now, Ariana, what's next for you?
22:42When are you back in the villa and what's going to happen?
22:44I mean, you can't really tell me, can you?
22:46Are you going to stir up some drama?
22:47I might be back in the villa tomorrow.
22:49Really?
22:50Definitely going to stir up some drama.
22:52Okay.
22:53I'm thinking we need to move some of these couples around a little bit.
22:57What do you mean?
22:59Listen, we have some people who have been single now.
23:01Yes.
23:02For a few days.
23:03Yes.
23:03And we have some people who seem to want to be with other people.
23:07Yeah.
23:07So I think we need to get these couples all set in exactly the way that they want to be.
23:13And there might be some new single people.
23:16And you know, when you're single, you are vulnerable.
23:19That's very true.
23:21Yeah.
23:21I don't know what is happening from what you said.
23:24I'm just going to stir the pie.
23:27I'm going to do the math.
23:28My favourite thing to do.
23:29Thanks so much for joining us.
23:30Thanks for having me.
23:32Give it up for Ariana Maddox, everyone.
23:38After the break, Callum's serving tequila and fruit bombs.
23:42And Shelley and Alandria are joining us live through VTU.
23:46You'll be a fool to miss it.
24:01Welcome back to Aftersun.
24:03While during the break, Callum has been working his magic with a cocktail shaker.
24:07Callum, what have you made for us here?
24:09This is Salty Thais is Crazy.
24:11Give it a try.
24:12Okay.
24:13Cheers.
24:13Cheers.
24:14Cheers.
24:17Oh my gosh, it's delicious.
24:19Banging, isn't it?
24:19I have had some experience making cocktails in my time, so it's got a bit of bite to it.
24:23Jess, do you want one of these?
24:24Oh, bloody earth, I'd love one.
24:26I'll bring one over for you, Jess.
24:27Bring it over.
24:30Here we go.
24:31Here we go, Jessie.
24:33Can I have a...
24:34Oh my God, okay.
24:35It's proper not here.
24:37What do you think?
24:39Fuck, that hit the spot, eh?
24:41It's not my first rodeo.
24:42I doubted your skills, I'm not going to lie.
24:44Did you?
24:45Sally, I thought you'd have some more trust in me.
24:47No, seriously, this is actually cool.
24:49It's good, isn't it?
24:50Yeah.
24:50Do you reckon the ingredients had something to do with it?
24:52Probably.
24:53Right, I've been waiting for this.
24:55It's time for our weekly check-in with the villa as we go live to the B-Chart with Cuervo.
25:01Alandria and Shelley were the first islanders to enter the villa and they're first up again tonight.
25:07Ladies, are you there?
25:08We're here.
25:09Hi.
25:10Oh, they've got the Cuervo too.
25:11Cuervo.
25:12Cuervo.
25:12Cheers.
25:15Welcome to Aftersun, ladies.
25:16How are you feeling?
25:17We're feeling great.
25:19Thank you for having us.
25:20Are you having fun in the villa?
25:21We are.
25:21Too much fun.
25:22Yeah, a little too, too much fun.
25:24You were the first two to enter the villa.
25:26How was that?
25:27Intimidating?
25:28No, not at all.
25:29I was excited.
25:30I was ready to come in.
25:31I was actually honored to be the first to walk in.
25:34Yeah.
25:35When I saw my girl Shelley, I was like, you know what?
25:36We got this.
25:37We got this.
25:37I felt comfortable immediately.
25:38Oh, Shelley, yesterday we saw you friendzoning Austin.
25:43Was that an easy decision?
25:44Um, I would...
25:46God damn.
25:48I mean, okay, no.
25:50I wasn't friendzoning Austin.
25:52Oh, okay.
25:52I was telling Austin that right now I feel like this is more platonic, but that doesn't
25:59mean it's not going to come.
26:00We're just still testing it out.
26:01But I had to be honest about what I was feeling right now, and it just was feeling a little
26:05platonic.
26:05That's a lovely way of saying you friendzoned him.
26:08Jo.
26:11Alandria, who was your favorite kiss from the challenge?
26:14Oh, this is messy.
26:15I'm going to play it cute.
26:16Taylor.
26:17No, no, no.
26:19No, it really was my favorite kiss.
26:20Was it?
26:20Yes.
26:21You're not just saying that?
26:22I'm not just saying that.
26:23That's what I got.
26:23Okay.
26:24Okay, Alandria, where's your head at?
26:26Because you said you wanted a cowboy, and now you've got one.
26:29I like Taylor.
26:30Taylor's cool.
26:31Obviously, we had a little issue a few days ago, but I've gotten over it.
26:35He actually is a sweet dude.
26:36Every morning, he makes sure he makes these breakfasts, literally down to the type of pancakes
26:41I like, making sure the edges are crispy, making sure the bacon is crispy, just little
26:45things.
26:46I see that he's so sweet to the girls, going around giving them hugs, and making sure
26:48they're okay.
26:49Like, he is everything I would want in a man on paper, for sure.
26:53All right.
26:54On paper?
26:55What about in real life?
26:56In real...
26:56Okay, so everything...
27:00No, that's messy.
27:01That's messy.
27:02Okay.
27:03Okay, in real life, too, honestly, I just think we're just missing that little, the affectionate
27:09part.
27:09Right.
27:09Which I get that it's been a few days, and I'm not...
27:11In the real world, like, I am very...
27:13I'm a slow burner, so I am enjoying where we are, but it's just, like, seeing the other
27:17couples getting a little, you know what I'm saying, more affectionate, I think we're
27:20just missing that piece.
27:21And I feel like once we have that piece, I can, like, picture us really, you know what
27:25I'm saying, progressing forward.
27:26But I like it so far.
27:27Good answer.
27:28Good answer.
27:29Good answer.
27:30Okay.
27:30To go with this week's cocktail, I'm going to ask some questions that are extra salty about
27:35your fellow Islanders.
27:36All you've got to do is swear to spill the whole tea and nothing but the tea.
27:41Do you swear on Ariana Maddox?
27:43Damn!
27:44I swear on my girl!
27:46Okay, I will tell the tea and nothing but the tea.
27:49Let's go.
27:50In three, two, one.
27:52Who is the grumpiest in the morning?
27:53Austin for boys.
27:54Really?
27:55He don't like...
27:56He doesn't like the morning time.
27:57He wants to stay asleep.
27:58Oh, she's not a man.
28:00Who is most likely to go through their partner's phone?
28:03I think Huda.
28:05Huda?
28:05For sure.
28:06Yes.
28:07Who do you think is the biggest game player?
28:09Ace.
28:10For sure.
28:10For sure.
28:12Ace.
28:12He's there repetitive with the stuff he's the ass in his throat, so...
28:15Really?
28:16Which Islander is most likely to steal your man?
28:18Sierra.
28:20Oh, okay.
28:21Yep.
28:22What is happening in the villa?
28:23Alondria, as an elevator expert...
28:25Okay.
28:26Who would you least like to be stuck in an elevator with?
28:29I'm going to say Charlie.
28:31I'll just say Charlie.
28:32Charlie.
28:33Who likes someone outside of their couple more than the person they're with?
28:37Shelly.
28:38Oh, wow.
28:39You saw Ace with that fourth base, right?
28:42What's that first?
28:44It was no time.
28:46No, no, no.
28:46Because you need to, for real.
28:47Okay.
28:48Let them know.
28:48Okay.
28:49You dancing around and shit.
28:50Okay.
28:50It might be me.
28:52No, it might.
28:53It might be me.
28:56Okay.
28:56Time's up.
28:58Thank you so much for joining us and spilling the tea.
29:01Cheers.
29:02Cheers.
29:02To the tea spillers.
29:04The tea spillers.
29:05Give them so much love.
29:06Alondra and Shelly, everyone.
29:11After the break, the launch of the Villain News Network and some juicy, exclusive unseen clips
29:17that weren't good enough for the main show, but are just about good enough for after some.
29:21See you in a few.
29:37Welcome back to the show.
29:39You're watching The Nightly Tea on VNN, the Villain News Network.
29:47Bringing you all the Love Island news from around the globe.
29:50I'm Sophie Monk, and these papers are just a prop.
29:54And I'm Sully Vasquez, and I actually have perfect eyesight.
29:58She does.
29:59She really does.
30:02To our top story, and today marks the 10-year anniversary of Love Island UK, the original
30:09that launched over 90 seasons worldwide.
30:121,000 islanders, four weddings, 10 babies, and 4,000% jump in global water bottle.
30:20Bottle sales.
30:21True.
30:21Impressive stats.
30:22She doesn't lie.
30:23Those stats are already out of date because two new series of Love Island just started
30:29during this segment.
30:30Oh, and now it's three.
30:35Closer to home, a huge congrats to season five winners Hannah and Marco.
30:40Mm-hmm, of course.
30:41Who became the first ever Love Island USA couple to get engaged.
30:45Love Island did that.
30:47Sources say they were both in tears when he got down to propose.
30:50Hannah because he popped the question.
30:52And Marco because he popped his kneecap.
30:57We've got breaking news.
30:59I've just been told that two-thirds of PPG, that's Janae and Serena, will be here on After
31:06Sun next week to give us the inside scoop on Beyond the Villa.
31:09PP, iconic.
31:11What about the G?
31:12No one talks about that, do they?
31:15And that's all from us here at the Nightly Tea.
31:18Back to the studio with me.
31:25Thanks, Sophie.
31:26Gosh, she's professional.
31:27Now to Ian Stirling at Love Island's London Studios, aka his bedroom.
31:34Hi, Ian Stirling here.
31:36Voice of Love Island, but some would say voice of a generation.
31:39And I'm here to bring you what, after some producers have insisted, is my favourite unseen
31:44moment of the week.
31:46Now a lot has happened in the villa this week, but what remained unseen were the scenes that
31:50you didn't see.
31:52Not my best work, but neither the lines in this next unseen moment.
31:56And be warned, the following contains adult themes and very bad freestyle rapping.
32:04The word is love island.
32:06Love island, love island.
32:07Love island.
32:09Bad gal, that's where you'll find them.
32:13Done playing around, I'm trying to wife them.
32:16They keep complimenting my styling.
32:18Hey, I'm styling.
32:20I got the 4-4 with the 1, 2, 3, and 4.
32:25Hey, yo.
32:26I take time in the air.
32:28Hey, hey, hey, listen, listen now, listen.
32:30Put the 2-2 in the 4-4 with the 4 in it with the band-ems.
32:331, 2, 3, and 4.
32:34Oh, fire.
32:35Shit.
32:37Where's pub?
32:38I'm in the pub, eating my grub.
32:40Trying to get a rub and tug.
32:41Oh, at the pub?
32:45New word.
32:46Fiji.
32:47I said we in Fiji.
32:49There you go.
32:50There you go.
32:51Like a bad, uh...
32:52Fuck!
32:54Let's go, chum.
32:56I said we in Fiji.
32:58Yeah.
32:59Like a teacher talking to a bad student.
33:02I'm going to talk to your girl.
33:03After class, you need to see me.
33:04See me!
33:06I said, girl, I want you to feed my soul.
33:09Come and feed me.
33:10Mmm.
33:11She said, baby, come and breed me.
33:13Why y'all getting so sexual?
33:15We got Batman and Robin and Mario and Luigi.
33:19So...
33:21Yeah.
33:22I pull a girl for a check.
33:24I tell her you are my dream.
33:26Austin's got to watch what he says.
33:27He's going to be turned into a meme.
33:29Mmm.
33:30I said, Love Island season seven.
33:33Mmm.
33:33Go ahead and turn on that television.
33:35Yeah.
33:36All these haters, my the us, my man, hella tripping.
33:38Mmm.
33:39Oh!
33:39Hella tripping.
33:40I talked to about six girls today.
33:42Did I forget to mention?
33:45Mmm.
33:46Mmm.
33:46He ain't never did not complete a mission.
33:48Mmm.
33:49He got 20-20 vision.
33:50Mmm.
33:51If so many missions, even Tom Cruise is tripping.
33:54Oh, my God, that was insane.
33:57I've got to lose that.
33:59He's running.
34:01I think we can all agree that unseen moment taught us all a very important lesson.
34:06And if you know what that lesson is, then literally I am all ears.
34:09Because I have no idea.
34:10Anyway, back to the studio.
34:12Back to you, Sophie.
34:13Congratulations on the first show.
34:16Thanks, dude.
34:18That was so good.
34:19That was so cute.
34:20That's so cute how they all wrapped together like a rap choir.
34:23That was mental.
34:24It was actually impressive.
34:26Yeah, they were all talented.
34:26No, Austin's last line, the Tom Cruise line, is crazy.
34:29Should be on a t-shirt.
34:31Don't kill him.
34:33When we return, Callum and Selly are off to the hideaway.
34:37To explore.
34:38Not to go.
34:40Don't get any ideas.
34:42Off you go, guys.
34:44Oh.
34:46Oh, my God.
34:47What is happening?
34:49Actually, that's a really good cliffhanger.
34:51Find out if Callum and Selly hook up in the hideaway right after this.
35:10Welcome back to After Sun.
35:12This season, the hideaway came early.
35:15Like day two.
35:16And Callum and Selly should be there right now.
35:19Can you hear me, guys?
35:20This is your dream come true.
35:22Oh, my God.
35:24It's the hide time, baby.
35:26This is crazy.
35:28Can you jump on the bed?
35:29I just want to know.
35:30Is it bouncy?
35:32Yes.
35:33You don't have to ask me twice.
35:37Guys, how many people you reckon you can feed on the bed?
35:40Oh.
35:40I can fit three of those Islander boys.
35:43Yes.
35:44Callum, get out of there.
35:46Let's just say there's plenty of room in here for extracurricular activities.
35:50I think that's how you say it.
35:51Have a look around.
35:52What's in the cupboard there?
35:53I want to see this magic.
35:55Oh, they've got grips.
35:56Oh, where'd you see that?
35:58Oh, Callum.
35:59No.
36:00Bend over, buddy.
36:00Don't get any ideas upon them.
36:04What the fuck is that?
36:06I think it's for riding.
36:07It makes the horses go faster.
36:10Don't mix business with pleasure, Sally.
36:13What else have we got?
36:14Oh, my God.
36:15Oh, my God.
36:16Wee.
36:17Take your shirt off right now.
36:19Oh, my God.
36:20Go to the bed.
36:21To the bed.
36:23Should we be watching this?
36:25I feel like I want to close my eyes.
36:27Let me get one of those bad boys.
36:29Go on.
36:29This one.
36:34I mean, I can't say I'm ever.
36:36Get it off.
36:37Get it off.
36:38What is it?
36:39What is it really?
36:41I know you like it.
36:42She's feeling the love in the air.
36:44Should we leave them to it?
36:46I don't know.
36:47God, look at these.
36:48They've got sex games.
36:49Wait.
36:49Okay, wait.
36:50What is it?
36:51Oh, my God.
36:52Oh, their positions.
36:53What does it land on?
36:54There's like all these different positions.
36:57Can you guys act out one?
36:59I've never actually tried this one, Sally.
37:01What is that?
37:02Wait, Seth.
37:02I've never actually seen this position before.
37:05I think it's like this.
37:07How does that even work?
37:08It doesn't even matter.
37:10How does that work?
37:10What the fuck?
37:14Sally, what is happening?
37:16I've been doing it all wrong.
37:17Yeah.
37:19What is that one called?
37:21I've never actually seen that one.
37:23No, that's actually what it is, though.
37:26That is mental.
37:27Okay, guys, I think you've had enough fun.
37:29Yes, Sally.
37:31Oh, you know this was your dream come true.
37:33Now you can say you went to the hideaway with me.
37:35Sally and Callum, get out of there.
37:37Aw, I'll miss you, hideaway.
37:39Love you.
37:40Bye.
37:41While those two make their way back from the hideaway,
37:44let's get back to our couples of this year.
37:47Okay, Jess, let's talk about Shelley.
37:50She's had an interesting time already.
37:52She started off with Austin, then she friendzoned him.
37:56Do you think there's a future for her and Ace?
38:00Absolutely.
38:01Do you?
38:01Yeah, I really do.
38:03I find it really crazy, and it's almost like destiny
38:06that they four came in here and they knew each other.
38:08It's like this sort of, like, invisible string theory
38:12where they're, like, gravitating towards each other.
38:15Right, like a magnet.
38:16Yeah, like, it seems like they're meant to be together,
38:19but I don't know if they've worked that out yet, so.
38:23Oh, hey, you two.
38:26What's up?
38:27How are your nipples?
38:29Yes, my nipples are still sore from that clamp.
38:31Oh, my God.
38:32That was a tight clamp.
38:34I'm probably seeing it.
38:35I liked it.
38:35I guess that's why it's called a clamp.
38:37Yes.
38:37And not a clip.
38:37That's my cardio workout done for the week, I think.
38:40Okay.
38:41Did any of you go into the hideaway when it was your season?
38:45Yeah.
38:45You did?
38:46Yes, I did.
38:47You did too?
38:47Yeah, I did, yeah.
38:48How messy did you get?
38:50Nah, mine didn't get messy.
38:51Mine was, like, as a friendship sort of vibe.
38:54Oh, that sounds like fun.
38:55Yeah, but I experienced the hideaway.
38:57What did you do?
38:58Let's put it this way.
38:59We didn't use any clamps.
39:00There was no clamps involved.
39:02Okay.
39:02It was platonic, platonic, platonic, that word.
39:04The one that they were using on there just before, that one.
39:07Oh, you don't use that often?
39:08No.
39:09I've added that to my vocabulary as of tonight.
39:11Okay.
39:12Topic change.
39:13Let's talk about Alondria and Taylor.
39:16We've got a southern belle that's looking for a cowboy.
39:19Are they a good match?
39:21Yeah, you reckon?
39:22I think so.
39:23Yeah.
39:23They're so cute.
39:24I think they're, like, attraction, maybe, like, they need to build up the romance a little
39:29bit.
39:30Yeah.
39:30But Alondria did say that she's a slow burner, and I have faith in them.
39:34I really do.
39:35I like them.
39:36I love her, and I just wanted to find her person.
39:38And Taylor seems to be really sweet, too, so.
39:39Based on, like, their chemistry, what I've seen, I think they could definitely, like,
39:44make a match and go the distance.
39:45But I guess, at the moment, it's just very friendship vibes for me, really.
39:49Whose head, do you think, would turn first?
39:51His or his?
39:52His.
39:52Oh, do you?
39:53I think he's proven that, hasn't he?
39:55Like, she did kiss Ace, but she told him right away, and she was like, I don't feel anything
39:58there.
39:59But, like, when he stood up for Sierra, that was, like, very telling.
40:02That's why she was, like, kicking up a bit of a fuss, because he had, like, one conversation
40:05with her, and he still stood up.
40:06So I think she's probably tread on a bit of eggshells with him.
40:09Yeah.
40:10She was really mad when Taylor stood up with a bombshell steal.
40:14Do you think she needed to apologise to him?
40:17Or no?
40:19Mm, no.
40:20Would you?
40:20I don't think so, because, like, that's an embarrassing experience for Orlandia, and so,
40:25like, I feel like I would do the same.
40:26Really?
40:27It's the situation.
40:28It's just the situation.
40:29It's not that, like, she's, like, head over heels for him yet, because I think they're
40:32still at that phase where they're getting to know each other.
40:34Yeah.
40:34But, like, it's just the embarrassment, like, the guy you'll come up with.
40:37It hits an ego, hey.
40:39And then it's like, you did all that just to not get paid.
40:41Yeah!
40:44I feel like he has every right to stand up and, like, explore the connections.
40:47Like, they're not set in stone, so, like, why not, you know?
40:50If he was to be picked and, you know, he had a new connection with somebody else, if they
40:53were meant to be, they'd always go back anyway.
40:56That's true.
40:56True.
40:57That's what he plans out, you know?
40:58Can we take a moment just for Charlie?
41:00He looks so defeated.
41:02When no one stood up for him.
41:04I mean, I don't feel like he gets rejected much.
41:06No, that's right.
41:07Yes.
41:07I think that would be, like, a big impact on his ego, you know?
41:11Are we feeling him and Hannah?
41:13Do you reckon they can last up?
41:16I don't know.
41:16I don't really know that I've seen a lot of chemistry there.
41:18Have you guys?
41:19I don't know.
41:21I don't know.
41:21I don't know.
41:21He seems like a handshake, bro.
41:23Yeah, I know.
41:24He seems like a handshake.
41:25Literally.
41:26I don't think so.
41:28From what I've seen so far, like, they're two completely different people.
41:32Yeah.
41:33They are.
41:33She's very, like, upbeat and, like, fun and cutesy, and he's very, like, I don't know.
41:38He just seems, like, very serious.
41:40Yeah.
41:40Opposites attract, though, sometimes.
41:42Who knows?
41:43I guess same with Charlie, you know?
41:44Yeah, that's it.
41:44You can never pick it.
41:45I don't know.
41:46I can never pick it.
41:47Sometimes I'm absolutely doubt of people, and they're together still to this day.
41:51Oh, thank you.
41:51Thank you so much, guys.
41:54For now, give it up for our panel.
42:00Right after this, we're talking exclusively to the new bombshells.
42:05Hannah and Amaya will be giving us the inside story.
42:08Don't go anywhere.
42:26Welcome back to After Some.
42:28Now, it's no secret the bombshells are the glue that holds Love Island together, and we
42:33have our two latest bombshells in the VChat right now.
42:37Please welcome Hannah and Amaya.
42:40Say, everybody.
42:41Hey, girls.
42:42Hi.
42:42What's up?
42:43Hi.
42:46How are you both going?
42:48I'm amazing.
42:50Amazing, excited, and very optimistic about what the journey has to bring for us.
42:54Oh, that's good to hear, because it's not easy being a bombshell, is it?
42:58It's not as easy as it looks.
43:01No, it's not.
43:02It's not.
43:03You're the first two bombshells to ever appear on the challenge stage.
43:08Oh, my God.
43:08How was that?
43:10We loved the fact that we broke the sheriff.
43:13Really?
43:14Honestly, could not have been more perfect.
43:17Yeah, more perfect.
43:18It actually was great.
43:20Girls, you looked so hot when you entered.
43:26How did it feel walking in?
43:27When we had to round that corner, my heart dropped my coochie.
43:32I was like, oh, my God.
43:35Honestly, it was like walking into a real-life Barbie house.
43:39It's so beautiful, and it's been a moment that we've both been, like, dreaming about,
43:44like, coming into the villa and forming connections.
43:46So the fact that it's actually happened is like, ah!
43:49Because you're both bombshells, do you have a special bond?
43:52Okay, walking in together, and we instantly clicked.
43:55Clicked.
43:55Instantly clicked.
43:56Instantly.
43:56Not for sure.
43:57And it's good to have somebody, like, a familiar face,
44:00and I feel like we could both relate on that.
44:03So it's like, she understands, and I understand.
44:06Oh, good.
44:07You're both in the same position.
44:09Yeah.
44:09You kissed lots of boys.
44:11Yeah.
44:13It was good.
44:14No, it was good.
44:15Yeah, it's good.
44:16There could have been more.
44:17Right, right.
44:18We're ready for more, too.
44:20Oh, you are?
44:20Who was your favorite kiss?
44:24Charlie.
44:25Oh, okay.
44:27See, Charlie.
44:28Hands down.
44:28Right, right.
44:29My favorite kiss was Ace.
44:33Oh, Ace.
44:34I mean, did you guys see that?
44:36It was like, straight out of the movie.
44:38It was steamy, but the popsicle made it cool.
44:42Oh, that's right.
44:42We saw it.
44:43Don't worry.
44:44You had a good conversation with Ace.
44:46Do you feel like you've got a good vibe there?
44:48I feel like we just have a lot in common,
44:51and when I speak to him, it's like speaking to my best friend, you know?
44:53I'm excited to see what the journey has to bring for us.
44:56I do want to ask about that kiss with Jeremiah.
44:59Do you feel Hooda's eyes, like, burning into you?
45:02Yeah.
45:03It was just like, what is going on?
45:05It was just like a lot of overwhelming feelings,
45:08and just the intensity of the whole situation was like, whoa.
45:12Hannah, you and Austin have had some good chats,
45:16and you and Charlie made out.
45:17So, which one are you feeling more of a connection to?
45:22I think it's pretty self-explanatory so far.
45:26I think me and Charlie have way more, like, chemistry,
45:30and I definitely have a better vibe with him.
45:32I think I'm still testing the waters with Austin for sure,
45:35but I think Charlie is just like my overall type on paper,
45:39and Austin, it's like a, oh, he seems like a really sweet boy.
45:44Not my usual type, but maybe that's what I need to go for.
45:47I think my usual type is not working out for me.
45:50Only you know that.
45:51That's what Love Allen's for, I guess.
45:53Thank you so, so much for joining us, ladies.
45:57Of course.
45:58You're welcome.
45:58Of course.
45:59We're so happy to be here.
46:00Yes.
46:00The heat is now turned up.
46:03The bombshells have dropped, baby.
46:05Boom.
46:06Explosion.
46:07Amaya and Hannah, everyone.
46:13And that's all we've got time for tonight.
46:15A huge thank you to all our guests.
46:18If you're a fan of Aftersun, you should check out the main show.
46:22Love Allen USA returns tomorrow night with the first recoupling of the season,
46:27only on Peacock.
46:28Aftersun will be back this time next week.
46:31Thank you and good night.
