She is joined by Journalist Anna Codrea-Rado, they are getting right into all of this week's factor 50, like: Micheal's oh-so questionable behaviour with Amber, how he has been dealing with his feelings and “pride”, something he keeps talking about, they question how this will affect him when he returns home as “the country’s most hated man”. The ladies admire Belle for being a strong woman and showing what she's made of this week, although they ask: was she in the right in her argument with Anton or was it just harmless banter?As we continue to be confused by Maura and Curtis’ (Maurtis?) late blooming love affair, once again Harriet is dissecting Curtis' real reason for being in the Villa?!And as Molly and Tommy become “official” and have started dropping the “L-bomb” Harriet and Anna ask: are they actually the real deal?

If you need a hug after all of the break-ups in the villa this week, but simply can’t admit this to any of your friends… this is your shoulder to cry on!This week Harriet is cracking on with Ayesha Hazarika, there is SO much to discuss after this week of action in the villa, together the ladies are talking through the bombshell that was Casa Amour and they are asking where did all of Michael's reasons for breaking up with Amber even come from? Is he in the right to call her childish when he knows he’s dating a younger lady? And why are the girls in the villa asking what it is they've "done wrong"?Harriet and Ayesha are picking up the pieces after the devastating break up of “Curmy” this week, they're talking about the brutal way Curtis let Amy down as she offered him a second chance, and what went wrong for the villa's "perfect man"? And Harriet gives her opinion on Maura possibly turning her affections toward the professional….. ballroom dancer!And is Love Island actually the perfect representation of the UK dating scene right now?Ayesha Hazarika is a Feminist Writer, Comedian, Broadcaster, Political Commentator and Author, you can find details of her book here.Harriet Minter is a journalist, broadcaster and speaker.

Do you know exactly who's coupled up right now but absolutely will not be sharing your secret love for the villa with anyone, this is the podcast for you!Harriet is joined by fellow (slightly guilty) Love island watcher Charly Lester, together they are dissecting all of the bits from the past week of island gossip.They're talking Yewande’s final words for Danny before leaving, her reaction outside of the villa to Arabella being dumped from the island, and why dating for black women is harder, THAT comment from Tom and what the real meaning behind saying Muara is "too much" might be. Again boy-girl friendships have been a subject of drama in the villa, Harriet and Charly are discussing the idea of being friends with guys over girls and what it says about how some women enter into relationships. They're asking whether Curtis and his feelings for Amy are genuine or is he just a VERY good actor, despite how cringe his inspirational chats are, Charly says having Curtis in the villa is like "Living with a magic 8 ball that comes up with really rubbish quotes".Charly Lester is the founder of over 50’s dating app“Lumen” and is utilising her expertise on dating to break down all of couples behaviour in Love Island this weekHarriet Minter is a journalist, broadcaster and speaker.

This week Harriet's head is getting turned by Columnist at the Independent Kuba Shand-Baptiste, they are putting on their grafting boots and talking all about the antics we've seen (and secretly LOVED) in the Love Island villa over the past week!They discussing Joe's exit this week and his gaslighting behaviour, will he learn why his behaviour in the villa wasn’t completely correct, and how has he developed these views by the age of 21?! Yewande and Danny have "taken things to the next level" this week but is her reluctance justified, and should she be worried about Danny's head getting turned, was she pressured into taking things further and finally telling him how she felt or was it just a knee jerk reaction to the competition from new girl and model Arabella? And they delve into what “attachment types" Yewande and Danny are and if this just shows there should be a red flag about their coupling!Kuba and Harriet admit they are finding Amy and Curtis's relationship a little strange, they are asking; is he playing a game and just playing it very well? Kuba shares her theory about Amy, and she and Harriet talk whether Amy is actually ok, or is she suffering from some real insecurity issues?And as always the ladies talk about their hero’s and villains of the villa this week!
