Read our privacy policy Not for the first time, grossed-outLove Island fans are pleading with the show’s bosses to turn off the contestants’ microphones during kissing scenes. A third tweeted: “LOVE ISLAND WE ARE ON SEASON 8 AND YOU STILL DO NOT TURN THE MICS DOWN WHEN THEY ARE KISSING.” Last year, fans took issue with a particularly loud kissing session between contestants Faye and Liam. Last night’s episode also saw the departure of Afia Tonkmor, after new contestant Jacques O’Neill was forced to choose between the two single women in the villa, Afia and Paige Thorne. While the current islanders are yet to figure out that Gemma’s father is the England footballer Michael Owen, Liam Llewellyn – who quit the show last week and had been coupled up with Gemma – recently reacted to the news, saying: “I can’t believe who that actually was.” Love Island continues nightly, except Saturdays, at 9pm on ITV.
