Love Island catch-up: Elma and Joe leave the villa in double dumping

All the latest from the Spanish villa

Joe and Elma both dumped from Love Island as public picks to break up two couples

Love Island day 14 was, as promised, a dramatic episode. Tonight (please read that in Iain Stirling’s faux-dramatic voice), two Islanders were dumped from the villa – Joe and Elma.

The four contestants in danger were Lucie, Joe, Anton and Elma, after the two couples were voted by their fellow Islanders as the least compatible. But they weren’t dumped in their pairs – only one from each couple got the boot, meaning that Jucie and, er, Elmon(?) were both split up. Woe.

Here are the biggest talking points from tonight’s episode.

Elma and Joe leave the island

The public have spoken, and new arrival Elma and mainstay Joe – both one part of the two “least compatible” couples – have been dumped from the island. Joe, it has to be said, is not a huge loss to the villa, but Elma never truly got a chance to shine. Pour one out for Elma.

Molly-Mae and Tommy

For a while, it seemed as though Tommy’s head had been spun so much (560 degrees? perhaps more?) that there was little to no chance that he was going to resist Maura’s salacious advances. But lo and behold, he chose to stick by Molly-Mae’s side, and they have even, finally, shared a first kiss. And a second. Etc etc.

Danny and Yewande

“| don’t think she realises how beautiful she is inside and out”, says… Anna, of Yewande. Perhaps if Danny said something as lovely, Yewande wouldn’t be feeling quite so insecure. Then again, she has a “barrier” up, and that isn’t exactly Danny’s fault.

Elma and Maura

Whilst it seemed, for a time, that Maura and Elma were lifelong allies, it turns out that arriving at the same time doesn’t guarantee lifelong kinship. It was somewhat satisfying witnessing Elma call out Maura on her unfathomable double standards, after Maura questioned her friend’s loyalty: “Of all people, my best friend in here, f**king hell.” Sadly, with Elma’s dumping, we won’t hear any more of her wonderful rants: “You can’t just claim people. The bird has lost her shit in here. Have him, have him, he’s not that f**king special, Jesus Christ.”
