We've been watching Love Island for over six weeks now and in that time we've started to feel like we know this year's Islanders personally, especially those who have been there since day one. While we're usually fixated on the drama and romance on the hit ITV2 show, the contestants' habits have also caught our attention over recent weeks. Some have admitted to having odd eating habits, including Gemma Owen and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, while others are yet to address the reason behind their unique behaviour, such as Luca Bish and his sleeping attire.

Dumped Love Island star Billy Brown revealed that there was a lot “more flirting” that happened between himself and Gemma Owen that wasn’t aired as he appeared on Capital Breakfast on Tuesday.

Luca, 23, has been in a couple with Gemma Owen, 19, since early on in the ITV2 dating show, and in recent episodes the contestant has appeared confident that they will make it to the last day and bag that £50,000 winners’ prize.

Love Island viewers were quick to react after Adam Collard, 26, told Luca Bish, 23, and Paige Thorne, 24, that he thought Ekin-Su was "punching" with Davide. In Monday night's (July 25) episode of the ITV2 show, while standing in the kitchen, Paige made to a comment to Luca which implied she thought Gemma Owen, 19, was more attractive than him.

Luca started the conversation by mentioning Mark and Michelle, both 35, as he said she was well out of Mark's league and that he was "punching” – which the trio all agreed to.
