I Do, Part 2

This week, former NFL player Brandon Marshall posted a video of him teaching his son a lesson for not listening. In the video you see 11-year-old Zi running at 2 am as Marshall drives along, telling him that discipline correction is good. The video sparked strong debate with many saying the public shaming is embarrassing and harmful to his son, while others applaud Marshall for teaching his son discipline.

So many people are skeptical of the love story that brought us to tears last night: watching Bryce and Trinity reuniting after pining away for one another in Casa Amor. Come on, how could they each fake those tearful confessionals apart? How could they know what the other was feeling or thinking, and when would they have had a private space to come up with a plan? Nah, we believe in their slow burn friendship turned romance and we are rooting for them to the very end.

We were all hoping it wouldn’t come to this, K.C. leaving Aniya, in tears for another woman. And not just any woman, Titi is in the villa now, and she seems ready to leave her mark. Amy asks T.J. on behalf of all the confused women watching Love Island, why in the hell would K.C. dump beautiful, sweet, smart Aniya for a sassy woman he just met three days ago?

During last night’s recoupling, we saw the girls each praise the Casa Amor man they coupled up with, some even saying they were the “perfect man.” Then we heard Melanie, Kayda and Aniya all criticize the boy they had been coupled up with, talking about the hurt and distrust they felt for them. But when decision time came, they all dumped the nice guys, the men who they said all made them feel seen and validated. Amy and T.J. talk about why it seems, nice guys always finish last.

Stay tuned for our next episode, where...

Last night’s episode was arguably the most explosive, entertaining one yet! There was laughter, tears and drama from the islanders as Casa Amor and the Villa reunited and the recoupling ceremony  ended with a bang. We go over our favorite moment… duh, Bryce and Trinity for the win, and what we think about KC’s decision to dump Aniya and bring TiTi to the villa.

20 minutes into last night’s Love Island episode, the narrator made a brief announcement saying only that Alanna had left Casa Amor. And that was it, no explanation. Fans of the show have been demanding her removal following video that surfaced of 21-year-old Alannah Keyser singing the “n-word” to camera, along with several concerning posts where she also uses the racial slur. Meantime, the other big headline from episode 20: We all just fell a little more in love with Bryce and Trinity. Can they just go ahead and claim their prize? They have emerged as the couple to beat, especi...

For weeks there has been non-stop speculation about where Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will tie the knot.

Just when it didn’t seem possible that Love Island producers could sexualize the Islanders any more, they introduced another challenge that quickly divulged into a barely clothed orgy on national television. One contestant even apologized to her parents afterwards…. We’re really hoping for their sakes, they fast forwarded through the segment. Looking beyond the growing ick factor of the show, there were some incredibly interesting developments in several relationships, with a couple of the boys continuing to pine away for their girls back home. And then there’s Corbin and Kenzie, who seem very satisfied in their new coup...

So far, not a word from Peacock about the fate of bombshell Alannah Keyser, who many fans are demanding be dumped from the show after video surfaced of her singing the N-word on social media.  While she seems pleasantly coupled up with Zach, the ladies have narrowed down their Casa Amor newbies from 12 to 6, but it remains unclear if any love connections are actually forming at the Villa.  Meantime, the men are split, with half of them fully exploring and seemingly enjoying their new women. However, Bryce was moved to tears and Sincere mused about missing their ladies back ho...

A French journalist has been suspended for criticizing Belgian soccer star Jeremy Duko who announced he may miss a World Cup game in order to be with his wife when she gives birth to his first child. France Pierron apologized after calling childbirth a “disgusting moment where the dad is useless.” She went on to question Duko’s choice, saying his baby “will always be there.” Doku isn’t the only player having to make tough personal choices while at the World Cup: two other players had babies born during the tournament. Hear what they decided to do when they had to...

Just when the Islanders least expect it, ‘Love Island’ producers threw in the Casa Amor twist into the villa. And while it’s always fun to see how the couples handle the temptations of a new full set of potential islanders, this was the most sexual, grotesque introduction of contestants we have ever witnessed in the franchise. Add the disgusting reaction by most of the men to the accompanying reaction from the women who were watching it all unfold live from the villa, and you have a completely changed competition with all of the couples seemingly upended. The girls went f...

Within hours of the men heading over to Casa Amor, a video emerged online, allegedly of one of the new bombshells using the N-word in a years old Snapchat post. In the unverified video, it appears 21- year-old Alannah Keyser sings the N-word while dancing inside a car during a night out in Miami.  Even before the video was released, fans of the show were commenting that Keyser made out with all of the white islanders, but refused to kiss the three black men, even telling K.C. at one point, “That’s all you get. Hand off, boy.” There a...

So that tease about the girls and the boys getting into a big fight over dumping Gabe, wasn’t quite what ended happening. Sure they exchanged some frank words, but they all kissed and made up…. And then the kissing returned with an even grosser turn: feet kisses.  Ew. The episode ends with a potential powder keg of a situation between Aniya and K.C.

This is the evil twin of kittenfishing, globintamacy involves showing up to first dates as the authentic real you, flaws out and all. The idea is you let your goblin flag fly high and reveal your baggage from the beginning. Spawned as a reaction to all the curated content and artificial intelligence fakes, daters hope to weed out partners who would never be right for you in the long run. Dating experts have STRONG reaction to this trend that you will want to hear before giving it a try.

Two more islanders were voted out of the villa and while it might not be shocking who they sent home, it was surprising why the women chose Gabe over Caleb. It was also pretty damn satisfying to hear Sol’s reaction to the villa, calling it “couples island” rather than “love island.” Also, the episode was worth a watch solely for her confrontation with Sincere. All the drama on Thursday sets up an explosive night in Fiji tonight, with the boys outraged by the girls’ decision to dump Gabe because they claimed he was always looking for the next bombshell.<...

We just heard from both Bunnie XO and Jelly Roll about their impending divorce plans, which include remaining best friends, and co-parenting a child they are sill trying to have together.  Bunnie XO spoke out on her podcast, with the blessing and encouragement of Jelly Roll to shoot down cheating rumors and to explain how and why the couple is divorcing. Last night on stage, Jelly Roll talked about “his wife” saying it was the one and only time he will ever speak on the topic.

Woah, this episode was a surprise for many fans, and the ending was a nod to a real life tragedy that unfolded in real time for the villa. We saw the couples choose each other via love letters, which left two islanders without a mate.  But in a shocking twist, the newly singly islanders got to remain coupled up, in the spirit of love. Host Ariana Maddox referenced the sudden passing of the show’s producer, and the surprise ending was followed by a beautiful tribute to producer James Barker.

This one hurts. It was just a few months ago we heard Jelly Roll praise his wife of 10 years in his Grammy acceptance speech, crediting her with changing and saving his life. Bunnie XO had been talking about surrogates, IVF and growing a family with Jelly Roll and his two children from different relationships. Now, we’re hearing Jelly Roll filed for divorce more than a month ago, citing irreconcilable differences. Meantime, Bunnie XO has posted on both Tik Tok and instagram. sending cryptic messages to fans.

Say it ain’t so, but this episode ends with possibly the end of Aniya and KC! Meantime, Kenzie and Corbin say “F*ck it” and secretly resume their makeout sessions, but first swear each other to secrecy, so Mel and Caleb won’t get upset. Still, poor Caleb is left questioning his status at the villa, while Mel and Sincere take baby steps back towards one another. There is so much to unpack and so many relationship lessons to learn, as we lean in to all the unfolding drama.

The episode began with tons of tears! Gabe cried over Beatriz, Mel sobbed over Sincere, and an overall awkwardness descended upon the villa. So much so, Mel refused to sleep with the group and KC seemingly made a play for Sol. Then an innocent game of soccer turns the heat up on a potential KC, Sol connection that sends Aniya over the edge and Amy and T.J. each have thoughts on her reaction. Finally, Kayda and Zach… just get it over with, please.

Episode 9 begins with Mel and Sincere repairing their toxic relationship, but by the end, dramatic changes have Melanie in tears, and their relationship seemingly finished. From a drama fueled pie-in-the-face game to Bryce’s bless-his-little-heart choices, this episode left us with plenty of relationship lessons.

Yes, we have a new term in the dating world and it’s called Kittenfishing. Basically, it means you tell little lies about yourself in order to appear more attractive. Whether it’s adding an inch to your height, editing your age by a couple of years or even filtering your photos, dating experts say nearly everyone is guilty of kittenfishing. It’s not malicious, like catfishing, but experts say it only makes relationships harder, because the truth always comes out in the end.

We’ve all been there, friendship drama is real, but how do you know if it’s worth your time and emotions to keep making the effort. This week, a fascinating article in the Washington Post highlighted what therapists go over the three signs that tell you it’s time to reevaluate the friendship. Remember, with the right friends, it rarely feels like “work," but we all have to recognize that most friendships need maintenance.

The boys are making bad decisions, and multiple islanders are paying the price. First, Sincere goes from telling Mel he does NOT want to continue to explore bombshell Sol, and then proceeds strait to exploring Sol for more than an hour. Then Bryce decides to go from reassuring Trinity about their connection, to making a play for Kayda. In the process, he risks his bromance with Zach, his relationship with Trinity and potentially his ego with Kayda.

Finally, no endless over sexualized kissing scenes in this episode, and we’re here for it! The islanders’ shaky relationships continue to be tested with three new bombshells in the villa. With tensions rising between Zach and Kayda, and Melanie and Sincere, we sense some new couples forming. Also, KC is a case study in being a loving partner with how he responds to Aniya’s hurt feelings. We share our votes for who we think Caleb, Jen and Sol should couple up with, and we’re willing to bet, most of America is on the same page.

This episode begins oh so sweetly, with all the islanders grateful and giddy they were coupled up with one another. Things were going too well: from Mel preparing her new instagram handle with Sincere to Kayda calling Zach, “her little nerd”, you just knew drama was coming for the villa. Enter three bombshells into a sexy lingerie party and this time, it’s the girls who get thrown for a loop, and by the looks of it, several loved up couples suddenly seem shaky.

The number one trend on X as of this recording was: “Corbin” from Love Island. Yes, bombshell Corbin came into the villa and shook things up, ultimately picking Kenzie and leaving former cop Sean without a partner, which got him booted from the villa. We go over all the notable and yes, laughable moments throughout episode 5, including Mel and Bea’s backhanded compliment fueled make-up conversation,  Bryce’s “I was bullied for being really really good looking” story, and Sincere’s non-stop analogies.

Episode 4 dropped Friday night and full disclosure, we actually started watching it, during half time of the NBA finals, and it did not disappoint. However, we did fast forward through some of the “Boss Bitch” game that just got truly, sexually uncomfortable at times. But the episode ends with the continuing spiral of Melanie, who ended the episode with an emotional episode of her own.
