Well. Having downloaded the sims at 10pm and just checking my phone to see if it was midnight yet and it’s actually TWENTY TO FOUR...I think I’m gonna be ok in isolation.
Just offered to drive my Nan and Grandad home at the end of the night and they declined as they always get a bag of chips and eat them on the way home together. 💔💔💔 55 years strong 👏🏻👏🏻
Despite all the sadness, it’s made me realize that I can fit in to a group, people will accept me for who I am and it’s ok to walk away if the situation is no longer serving you ❤️
A year ago today I had my life all planned out. Had just bought a house and had decided to do solo IVF after my 30th and THEN I checked my DM requests and now 365 days later I officially live with a boy 🤣
@SamuelRason
In the last 3 days I’ve had a few, a few too many, messages from people asking if I’m pregnant. Not nasty ones, just lovely, congratulations messages. I have literally lived on takeaways and wine since I moved out in April. I am not with child. Thank you.
Tasha hasn’t behaved perfectly through the series but the constant nastiness directed at her by other islanders is just horrendous. Thank god Andrews started sticking up for her. Also when Ekin asked what heavyweight meant and all the boys just laughed. So so nasty 😭

Wake up, delete Instagram story, read texts, block 4 people on WhatsApp, try and fight the white wine anxiety, cancel cards I’ve lost, find cards I’ve cancelled.
Dry January cannot come quick enough.
Got asked to model a bikini on live TV tomorrow. Said no as I’m not ‘bikini ready’ then remembered that even at my smallest I still had things I didn’t like, so will I ever deem myself truly ‘bikini ready?’ Phoned back, changed my mind and will be on tv tomorrow. In a bikini. 😬
My final thought of the evening, this beautiful,respectful QUEEN has sat on this for almost two years. We haven’t spoken about it publicly because it was Yewande’s story to tell.I remember dates, times, locations of every conversation in that villa.There’s so much you don’t see x
"I'm going to talk about her and give her the respect that she deserves and that she didn't always get"

so much that we’re having her as a guest panellist next Wednesday! We can’t wait to welcome Amy back to the

panel 😍👏
I turned 24 crying on a kerb outside all bar one Covent Garden because I felt my life had no direction and I hadn’t got it all ‘sorted.’ Turning 28 loving my life, it gets better gang.
I think I must be doing the whole reporting thing wrong on
@instagram
as apparently this is fine? ‘Doesn’t break community guidelines’ I can take it but what about kids who are being bullied? Literally what is wrong with society?
I take as I find and what I found was the kindest soul ✨ from putting us at ease on day one, to squeezing my hand when I didn’t know I needed it most, to reaching out to my best friend to help her navigate the dark side of social media, to inviting me to her dressing room 1/2
I bought 6 chocolate frogs at Universal. Mum asked me who they were for, listed the people and the last one was me, she said ‘you need to be careful of your weight on the way home’ I replied ‘YES IM TRYING OK IM ON HOLIDAY’ but it turns out she meant my suitcase 🙃
One day if I’m lucky enough to get pregnant I’m going to ban my friends who know before the official announcement from saying ‘Thank GOD the news is finally out’ or ‘FINALLY the secret is out’ and if they do it anyway, they won’t be an auntie or uncle, so there.
At a beach club, having a lovely day, get my phone out of my bag to find a horrible boy has taken a video of me on my sunbed, tagged me and written about how awful I look. Went up to confront him in the pool and he claimed his friend did it 🙃🙃🙃
Is anyone actually going to watch Gavin and Stacey as it airs on Xmas day? I just feel like my family talking (breathing) through it is going to ruin my savouring of every minute so need to watch it on catch up alone.
What a summer! Congrats to my girl, Amber and her boy, Greg becoming the champs. Ups, downs, all arounds but coming away with a place in the finest family in the land.
@LoveIsland
it’s been emosh. And remember....
❤️We are SO incredibly proud of Amy and so thankful to all of you who have supported her along the way. Sometimes you simply need to put yourself first and do what is right for you! Thank you to ITV for looking after her. ❤️
I have no words.
Thank you. Love you.
Just remember, if you’re tweeting nasty things about
#LoveIsland
contestants, they won’t see it. Their Mum, Dad, siblings and friends will, who have been thrown in to this whole thing without asking for it!
Solidarity with all the RMT workers bravely going on strike. A proud trade unionist myself, I applaud you for taking a stand, something I know is always the very last resort. You have one chance to make your voices heard, standing together will always be more powerful!
@RMTunion
Actually, I'd rather hear that my freelance friends and colleagues will have some form of financial help whilst they can't physically work as their workplaces are closed. Enjoy your chicken.
Thanks for all your lovely messages! 5 in the freezer with a few more possibles 🥚It’s been a *journey* but I’ll continue to speak about future proofing your fertility, IVF inequality and solo motherhood as if I can use my platform to make one person feel less alone I will! ❤️
When I was 17 I saw a designer bag that I decided was my ‘dream bag.’ Every first class passenger I looked after who had one would always get the ‘I will have one of those one day’ speech. They discontinued them but the Dubai shop had one left and I just bought it 🤩🤩🤩 dreams!
Just a random reminder to book any overdue smear tests please gals 😘😘 My follow up smear has come back dodgy so progressing to the next set of tests. Don’t leave it! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amy Couldn’t get a taxi last night so walked home along the side of the dual carriageway. Amy got picked up by a lovely couple who insisted on dropping her home. Luckily for Amy they were nice people. Don’t be like Amy, Amy is stupid.
It must be a little bit sad for King Charles too, the biggest day of his life, but a reminder that his parents aren’t there. I think we sometimes forget that they’re human too.
Last night mum was so drunk she kept saying ‘order two more bottles of champagne, I’ll pay!’ Joke was on me when the bill came out and she was too drunk to put her pin in. Also had to queue ages for the loo, only to find that the person who’d passed out in there was my auntie 🤣
Posted this on Instagram and it’s all kicked off because I don’t have masks and gloves on...😬 Gloves don’t actually work (you’d need a new pair every time you touched something) and masks should be saved for the KW’s...in the words of Michelle Bass...Pie Jesu 🙈Kept 2m Away too
Learning everyday and I have the best teachers 🥰 Also, can we just read this article and appreciate how intelligent and eloquent Yewande is, ‘braindead islanders’ nah, not us.
Week has been HARD. Anxiety hit me like a train. I’m very good at slapping on a smile but at this week that’s been really hard. Lots of tears and worry, jaw is hurting from all the stress. I’m working through it& ending the week with a smile. Hope you all have a lovely weekendx
showtune karaoke, to giving me the pep talk of all pep talks at aftersun, kept me really calm at the reunion and kept reassuring me all evening. Above and beyond her job at all times, she didn’t HAVE to do any of that and she did. Absolutely gutted. 💔 Go and be the star you are
My mum…
2018: what is this rubbish you’re watching
2019: I’d obviously prefer it if you didn’t go on but it’s your decision
Just now, in a voice note: I reckon the producers have sent that postcard to get the girls to have more fun as they’re being so loyal
#LoveIsland
Right….If you all agree at the beginning that if anyone pulls out of the trip they still have to pay for their bit of the accommodation…and then someone pulls out, it’s not unreasonable to ask them to pay their share is it?! 🤣
Me in March 2021 ‘But like who am I ACTUALLY waiting for? I don’t think the person I want actually exists so I’m gonna do solo ivf next year’ Just found this in my collection of frantic selfies from last night 🥰🥰
My therapist just messaged to say she thinks I’m at the end of my journey now and did I want to book in for my ‘ending session’ 😭 Really proud of myself and thankful to ITV but also really sad as I have the best therapist! Time to go be a 🦋
So I asked my 5 year old ‘nephew’ (we’ve all got those aunties who aren’t your actual aunties, it’s my fave job) what he wants for his 6th birthday. Before I’ve got him a darth Vader helmet, Batman’s car...he wants lined paper. Lined. Paper. To practice his letters 😭😭😭
My brother took our severely diabetic, 75 year old grandad clubbing last night and gave him VK’s all night 😬 (Sam is dressed as a girl as it was his stag)
My Dad got NINE HUNDRED likes on Facebook when announcing becoming a grandad and now his friends who I’ve never met are sending gifts for Stanley. Maybe becoming a parent is the second most life affirming moment?!
Imagine losing your Mum and then having to do a tv broadcast to the world the next day 😭 I’m so sad for the whole family but I really feel for Charles 😭
This morning we’ve been discussing nanny and grandads isolation on the family group chat(they’re in it) going to FaceTime them,send them Netflix login details,get shopping as we don’t want them going out.
Mum went round an hour later and my grandad asked for a lift to the pub.🙄
Me whilst I was pregnant: I don’t wanna be one of those mums who won’t leave their baby or who just wants to get home when they do go out
Me 3 hours in to our date night: Mum, send me a pic of him please, I miss him 🤣😭
Casa Amor is literally mentally torturous, when it all kicks off when you get back is a total different ball game, but the not knowing what’s going on is pure hell. Sending so much love to the gals ❤️
I know there are bigger things going on but before you publically celebrate the cancellation of Love Island, think of the 300+ freelancers who are without work. You didn’t celebrate when airlines stopped flying or all the theatres closed. Sending loads of ❤️ to the whole LI fam x
Left my purse with all my cards and cash in the back of an Uber last night, driver just driven it back to me, everything still in it and wouldn’t take any money as a thank you.
#bemoreassan
I’m so confused as to why Gemma and Luca aren’t allowed to sleep in the doghouse together?! Loads of couples over the years have slept outside together because they weren’t officially coupled up?!
#LoveIsland
Last ride of the holiday: Space Mountain. Get in and there’s popcorn all over the footwell but they rush you in so I sat down. During the ride, Went down a dip, screamed and a piece of SECOND HAND FOOTWELL POPCORN went in to my MOUTH. The holiday is over ladies and gents. 🍿 🎢
A Thread...So my new favourite lockdown game is DM’ing my trolls and asking why they do it. So far I’ve had a really long in-depth conversation with with 15 year old who called me a ‘dirty Tory c***’ (I’m not as it goes...) and apparently he’s just really annoyed at what the gov
My grandparents put £1 a week from the week we were born to the week we were 18 in a bank account for all us grandkids…they said they’re doing £10 a month for Stanley as they ‘were younger before, don’t know how long we’ll be doing it’ 😭😭😭😭😭
A girl in the restaurant were in is pretending to take a selfie to get a pic of me in the background so I did a smile and peace sign and she shit herself 🤣🤣🤣 just ask me bebz
The other night I met someone who I’ve admired professionally for a while, who trolled me horrendously throughout my time in the villa. I was as nice as could be and it actually made me feel good. Don’t hang on to hate kids ✌🏼
