Tonight on "Aftersun,"
we are unpacking all the Casa carnage
with Ariana Madix,
VIP super-fan Amy Schumer,
season five and six super vixen
Kassy Castillo,
and world-leading "Love Island"
experts Callum and Cely.
Cierra and Amaya
will be live from the Beach Hut.
Here to set the record straight
after their shock dumpings,
Hannah and Jeremiah.
Plus, unseen moments so exclusive,
I'll probably get in trouble
for mentioning them.
And holding it together
from a studio wedged
between Casa Amor and the Villa,
it's Australia's answer to
Meryl Streep if she didn't act.
It's Sophie Monk!
Tonight, epic guests,
epic unseen exclusives,
and all the epic fallout from Casa Amor.
Get set for an epically epic
"Love Island USA Aftersun."
Bula, which is Fijian for "What's up?"
I'm still processing everything
from Casa Amor,
but here to do the math on
the aftermath are my VIP panel.
After Season 2, she said she
never wanted to hear the words
Casa Amor ever again.
She's gonna hear them
a lot tonight, though.
It's Cely Vazquez.
- Hello.
- He's "Love Island's" ultimate manhole.
It's Callum Hole.
Hey.
- And she was a Season five O.G.,
a Season six bombshell,
but she's now peaked
as a Season seven panelist.
It's Kassy Castillo.
- Thank you!
- That was a good intro.
Thank you, thank you.
I'm staff now.
- Yeah, you are.
- And joining us for one night
only, live from America,
comedian and full time
"Love Island" super-fan,
it's actual Amy Schumer.
- Yay!
- We're so famous.
- Hi, Amy!
- Amy, Amy, Amy!
Whoo!
- Amy.
- It's me! Thank you.
You don't understand.
You are my favorite.
I'm not just saying that.
Like, absolute favorite.
Like, just been following you forever.
I love you, and I followed you back,
- and now we're real friends.
- Did you?!
God. f*ck yourself.
My God.
We are the real "Love Island."
- We are.
- Okay?
- Aww!
- We are.
Amy, you're a genuine super-fan.
What is it you love about the show?
I love, like, those feelings
and remembering that time
in my life where you were like,
my God, you could, like...
Things...
I mean, the way people are feeling
are so intensely on this show.
It's like Shakespeare, you know?
It's like when somebody goes home,
like everybody's crying,
like, you know, their dog died.
- It's like insane.
- Isn't it the best?
You're doing God's work, Sophie.
I mean, she said it.
It was Amy Schumer.
The best compliment.
Do you have a favorite
moment from this week?
I think the Monica and Brandy
remix of "The Boy Is Mine,"
the melodrama that came with that song,
like, I wasn't ready for it.
Like I was like, my God, you know?
Like it was just so intense to
see who was gonna be picked.
And then Nic and Olandria kissing, like,
I have so much to process.
Like, there's...
God, this is a compelling season.
Isn't it?
Amy, it's been a big week
on "Love Island USA."
I know, but I'm ready.
Are you...
So you love Elan?
Yeah, I'm gonna couple up with him.
I will see what I can do after.
Amy, which couple are you most rooting for?
Chelley and Ace.
I was really happy
to see them get back together.
And I really do love
Austin and Jaden.
I think they're really cute.
- I like Jaden.
- I'm digging them.
What did you make of
Nic and Olandria's return?
You "Love Island" people are lawless.
- Yeah.
- Okay? That was crazy.
- Wasn't it?
- That was crazy.
- I don't know. That was crazy.
- Yeah. It's so unpredictable,
too. You never know.
I never know.
I want to, before I forget,
I just want to say that I don't trust Nic.
Okay.
He's a little love-b*mb-y, and he's like,
you know, like, that he...
He's like making eyes at people.
Like, I just don't trust him.
And I really, really like
Cierra.
I feel like Nic's just flirty.
It's interesting to like hear
your opinions on it all,
cause, like, Nic is my
favorite. Like, I love Nic,
so I'm rooting for Nic to get to the end.
Really? Why?
I don't feel like he's got
any like, hidden agenda.
I feel like he is true to himself.
And yeah, I agree he is a bit
of a love b*mber.
He is like flirtatious,
but he's just, like, Nic,
and I like that he's just his
true authentic self.
He's like you.
Is he like you?
Yeah. There's a lot of red
flags there, don't get me wrong.
But I feel like deep down,
he does have a good heart.
And I was so happy to see him come back
with Cierra after Casa Amor.
Like, I was like, I feel like
they can go to the end together.
You know, Nic is a little bit...
I think he's a little bit
careless with some women's
feelings about him.
And also, he's a really good guy
and a good friend.
And he's also shady.
It's like... And I'm all of those things.
You know, I'm sure we all are.
And that is what is
so incredible about this show
is that you can have
so many different perspectives,
and it's fun to disagree
and still get to talk about it.
If you could speak
to the islanders right now,
what advice would you give them?
I would still tell them
to blend their contouring more,
of the makeup.
- Yep.
- Contour more.
I think these people are
so brave for going in there.
I cannot...
At no point in my life
would I ever be able to do that.
Amy, thank you so, so much for joining us.
Thank you so much for having me.
Yeah, we'll let you go to bed
now and get some sleep.
I'm too fired up.
I'm too excited.
I'm gonna... I think I'm gonna
re-watch the episode
and pour myself some whiskey.
Thank you so much, Amy.
Thank you so much for having me.
- Thank you. You're the best.
- Thank you.
Give it up for Amy Schumer, everyone.
Whoo-hoo!
My gosh. I can't believe
that just happened.
That was actually Amy Schumer.
Look, she's my favorite movie star.
- It's crazy, isn't it?
- She's so funny.
- So freakin' cool.
- So funny.
Cely, did you see
Charlie's first TikTok?
I did, I did.
So full on. He's obsessed.
That is so huge.
So cute.
How many views did you give him?
- A lot. Yeah. Yeah.
- It was his first TikTok.
It was his first one. Yeah.
So cute.
His cat walked so I could breathe.
He's a real one for that.
Hang on, if he's getting rid
of his pet for you,
Is that, like, a soft launch?
Are you guys a thing?
What's happening?
I'm still waiting for him to
actually officially message me
- and talk to me.
- That part. That part.
He's playing the games.
He knows what he's doing.
- Hard to get, I guess.
- Does he?
Maybe he does want you. Okay.
Telling you, Cely, it's
mind games. It's mind games.
I hate mind games.
Like, just tell me you want me.
Kassy, welcome back to Fiji.
Third time.
Yeah.
Third time's the charm, right?
Yeah.
What's it like being back?
It's great obviously going down
memory lane for sure,
but I am a big fan of this season,
so I'm just happy to be a watcher,
to just spill all the tea today.
- I can't wait.
- Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, it is raw for you,
but how's it feel sitting and
watching it on the other side?
Way better.
I'll say that. Way better.
- Yeah.
- Less emotional.
I've caught myself
even watching and being like,
am I gonna go in?
And then I'm like, no, I'm good.
Surprise! You're going in!
I'm kidding.
You're near the phone, a text.
You're like, aah!
Like, no, it's just "Aftersun."
I'm good. I'm good.
Okay, let's talk about the show this week.
It has been so full-on.
My gosh.
- Intense.
- So good. So good.
I don't even know
where to start with it all.
I mean, this week's been a game changer.
- Yeah.
- So much has happened.
But before we unpack it,
let's see the highlights
from Casa once "a-more."
Yes.
What was that?
What the f*ck is it time for?
Casa Amor. Casa Amor.
sh*t.
Hi, boys.
- Hello, boys.
- Hello.
sh*t!
TJ, Amaya,
you've got 24 hours to lock in
a new connection
or risk being dumped from the island.
My time is tick-tocking away.
If you have a better connection with Amaya,
please stand up.
Olandria, you have 30 minutes
to pack your bags.
Nic, you have not been picked.
Say your goodbyes.
This sh*t can turn around fast as hell.
Quick. Hurry up. Get in.
- Did you see this coming?
- No!
- Good morning, islanders.
- Good morning, islanders.
What the f*ck?
Damn.
This is obviously gonna be
a little bit of an awkward...
You know.
For me, nothing has changed.
We did kiss last night.
Honestly, the ball is
in your court at this point.
"Islanders, tonight you will
return to the Villa."
I was preparing myself
to see him standing here with someone else,
but I don't think
I prepared myself
to not see him standing here at all.
There is one more couple.
My God!
- I missed you.
- Hey!
Please write down the name of the islander
you want to couple up with now.
- Zak.
- We have a match.
You remain a couple.
- Ace.
- Chelley.
Yes!
- Taylor.
- Taylor.
- Clarke.
- What?
One boy and one girl will be saved tonight.
The boy we want to save is...
Elan.
The girl we are saving is...
Olandria.
My God! Okay.
I mean, where do we even start?
- Girl.
- It was Casa Amor
like you've never seen before.
So much happened.
What do we make of all,
like, the twists and turns?
- I loved it.
- You did?
Yeah! I feel like Casa's
always like a crazy time,
- but this was like a full reset.
- Yes.
This was like a full, like, I don't know.
It was just... It was cinema.
I know. It's like I got slapped that way.
And then I was like, this way, too.
We got whiplash, yeah.
It was like "Love Island" saying,
you will never know my next move.
- Yeah.
- Literally.
Just remember, you can't read my mind.
- Exactly.
- I wasn't expecting it
to be as like dramatic as it was,
cause there's no, like, really strong,
strong like bonds and loyalties
in there as of yet.
I like the fact that the Casa
islanders had so much power,
cause that hasn't really been seen before.
It was the first time.
Do you think that
changed the dynamic a bit?
- Absolutely.
- 100%.
Especially bringing all
the Casa people back,
like, it's just... I feel
like that's just so cool.
Like nobody... You can't hide.
- It was just such a good twist.
- Yeah.
But the dumping,
I bawled my eyes out.
- Yeah.
- My... I've never cried
like that a day in my life.
- I know.
- Like when Olandria said,
like, when they told her you're so strong,
- she said I've had to be?
- Yeah.
- I know.
- And then she broke down crying?
- I was like...
- No, I completely lost it.
- I felt so bad.
- I know. I cried.
But then when I saw her pull up
in the jeep, I cried again.
I was like, what's wrong with me?
She's fine.
She's alive. Thank God. Yeah.
Even when Nic left, too,
the guys were crying.
I bawled my eyes out to that, too. Like...
I was really upset when Nic left.
- Yeah.
- I was upset, yeah.
- Exactly.
- That was insane.
Nic and Olandria's fake dumping
has to go down in "Love Island" history.
- Wild.
- Yeah.
Yeah, and then seeing them come back,
I mean,
America was shipping this.
A lot of us were shipping this.
So to see that this was
like finally something
that was gonna happen,
we were so excited.
I know I was.
I was so mad, and then I was so happy.
I was like all these emotions
I'm feeling at home, as well.
- A roller coaster.
- Yeah.
I was a bit sad
that they didn't feel a spark.
I know, it's a bummer, hey?
Bummer. I feel like Nic was
more open to explore it.
- Yeah, 100%.
- But I think Olandria was so
tunnel vision for Taylor
that she just didn't
really see that possibility
until they kissed.
So I was, like, really hoping.
But I think she's also
really loyal to Cierra, so
I think it's also the friendship
aspect, as well, maybe.
Are we glad to see
Nic and Cierra back together?
- Yes.
- Their reunion was pretty sweet.
It was cute the way she ran up
to him. It was so sweet.
- Yeah.
- I think it's gonna bring them
- closer together for sure.
- How's she gonna feel, though,
when she sees that Olandria and him kissed?
I feel like she's... She has,
like, a really good head
on her shoulders.
Like everything that's happened,
she's navigated it with such grace.
I feel like if Nic and
Olandria say it to her
in a good way, like, this is how it was
and this is how it is now,
I feel like she'll be accepting.
Especially because it wasn't their,
like, completely their choice
to get coupled up.
I mean, it was either that or
getting dumped from the Villa.
So you know what I mean?
It wasn't necessarily like
they were like dying
to couple up with one another.
They just kind of landed there, you know?
Well, we should move on
to Taylor, Olandria, and Clarke.
- Hold me back.
- What a triangle.
- That is messy. That is messy.
- That triangle.
- My gosh.
- Yeah, that's a triangle
I wouldn't want to be in.
I just didn't see it coming.
I did not see it coming.
Like Taylor,
out of all the guys,
I was not expecting him
to be moving the way that he's moving.
I thought he'd be like
smitten kitten on Olandria
- the whole time, but...
- I actually wasn't surprised.
- Really?
- Yes. He's always been open.
He's always been, like, kind of wanting
to get to know the bombshells,
which is why it pissed me off,
cause I was like,
Mr. Slow Burn,
where's the slow burn now?
He's hugging up on Shorty.
- He's like kissing her.
- He's so affectionate with her,
with Clarke and not with Olandria.
I thought
they were so locked in together,
Olandria and Taylor.
But when Taylor met Clarke,
I saw a different side of him.
- Same.
- Like, he just
lit up a bit more,
and I just felt like, um,
like we might see
a different Taylor, like, a bit.
So I wish they were together,
Olandria and him.
But I think there might be
a bit more chemistry there.
Did Taylor make the right
decision choosing Clarke?
- Yeah, I think so, 100%.
- I think for him, yeah.
I'm mad about it, I
will say, but I do think,
yeah, like you said,
we've seen a different Taylor.
Amaya finally got a man
that seems genuinely into her,
- Zak K.
- She deserves it.
I love it.
She deserves it.
She deserves it.
- I was so happy.
- I love Amaya.
When Zak got up for her,
I was cheering.
I literally got up with him.
I was like, yes, yes!
I just hope he treats her
like a queen. I really do.
I can't really see his head
turning to go to anyone else.
I feel like Zak is all for her now.
- Let's hope so!
- I know. Fingers crossed.
- They look good together.
- I'm coming for Zak.
- He's so hot.
- Yeah.
It's been a massive week.
What's been your favorite moment?
Nic and Olandria coming.
I think that was my favorite moment.
What was your favorite moment, Callum?
Maybe, um,
Andreina and Bryan's kiss.
- Aww.
- That was kind of cute,
because obviously she was a bit
cut that Jeremiah had left.
And they had a good kiss at the speakeasy.
- Yeah.
- Which I like.
They're both so tall.
They'd need a house
with big, tall doors, wouldn't they?
- They have great chemistry.
- They do.
- And they suit each other.
- Yeah, they look good together.
They look like boyfriend
and girlfriend already.
I love chatting with you guys.
Thank you so much.
Give it up for these guys, everyone.
- Thank you.
- Best panel in the world.
- It's fun.
- Thank you.
- Later on, we'll be joined
by dumped islanders
Jeremiah and Hannah.
But after the break,
hostess with the mostess
Ariana Madix will be here
with a hot take on Casa Amor.
Don't go anywhere.
Welcome back to "Aftersun USA."
Our next guest gives us major F.F.F...
Friendship fanny flutters.
It was her birthday earlier this week,
so let's give her an even bigger
welcome than normal.
It's Ariana Madix.
Birthday girl.
Whoo-whoo-whoo!
How are you? Happy birthday.
Thank you so much.
And then Casa Amor
was your birthday present.
Yes, it was.
Casa Amor was my birthday present.
Nic/Olandria was my birthday present.
- Yeah.
- I mean, I'd say
it was a really good week for me.
Yeah.
What does Casa mean to you?
To me, Casa is all about
being open to new experiences...
- Yeah.
- And new connections.
And it's less about testing
cause I feel like people are not tests.
But more about just kind of
breaking out of your shell.
- Yeah.
- You know, because I can see
how sometimes you might be just, like,
in a bubble a little bit.
And then you get...
There's new people,
there's a new setting,
and you just go, "wow!"
- Actually.
- "There's a whole world out there."
- Yeah.
- Yeah. I loved Casa this year.
And I loved the way it all worked.
It was the best Casa of all time.
- Yeah.
- It was so good.
And the way you snuck in with your cards,
- and you were like...
- That was so much fun.
And it was so quiet,
but their bodies were screaming.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
The way that Amaya was just
running around in circles, but silently.
I love when she gets the zoomies like that.
She just runs around in circles.
Like, where are you going?
I don't know, there's so many
things about Casa
that I love this year.
I love that the guys
and the girls had agency.
- Yeah.
- Um, because so often it feels
like they come in for a few days,
and then if they're not picked
to be in a couple,
"Bye," they have no...
You know, it feels like
they have no choice in anything.
So it was nice that they were able to...
- A bit more time.
- Make choices on their own.
- Yeah.
- And more time.
And I loved the way
that everybody was coupled up.
- Yeah.
- And making sure that everyone
was really exploring connections.
- Yeah.
- Made it so that no Casa person,
guy or girl, could ever be
looked at as a villain.
- Yeah.
- And I feel like that happens so much.
- It can, yeah.
- And this time it was like,
no, absolutely not.
You did say that, you were like,
"Everyone's returning!"
Emphasis on "everyone."
Did you get it, guys?
Yeah.
I don't think they got it.
No.
It's all in the wording.
Isn't it crazy?
It sure is.
Little Easter eggs everywhere.
Taylor and Clarke...
Did you see that one?
I kind of saw
Taylor and Clarke coming.
- I didn't want to.
- I know.
I think that it's going to be
good for Olandria in the end,
because I really want
her to be with someone
who really sees her value and her worth,
and is giving her the goddess
treatment that she deserves.
And I do feel like Clarke
and Taylor are a great match.
They seem to really enjoy each other.
- I agree.
- I mean, crack on, guys.
- Enjoy.
- I do think Taylor kind of changed a bit.
Like, he kind of lit up a little bit.
But do you think it's the end
then for Taylor and Olandria
- or have they got a chance?
- I never really saw that
- really going much of anywhere.
- Okay.
I never thought he was
giving her what she needed.
- Right.
- I really always saw Olandria
as someone who should be told
that she's the most beautiful woman,
should be given, you know,
not morsels and crumbs.
I felt like he was
breadcrumbing her a little bit.
- Right.
- And I do feel like they have
a really beautiful friendship
and a really nice banter.
And I love both of them as individuals,
but I really feel like as a couple
he was not stepping it up,
and when he did step it up,
it was because Ace told him to.
But, you know, as a couple,
I want to see her get treated
the way she deserves.
And honestly,
it felt like for a minute there,
Nic was really giving
her what she deserved.
He said she was the most
beautiful woman he'd ever seen,
maybe in his life.
But then I feel bad saying that
- because I love Cierra so much.
- Yeah.
But, damn, if I didn't love
Olandria and Nic in Soul Ties.
Well, Ariana, thank you
so much for joining us.
We do have a little
birthday surprise for you.
Callum and Cely have spent
all day baking a cake.
Come on, guys, show it off.
What?
My God!
Happy birthday.
We love you.
My God!
- How crazy is that?
- This is crazy!
I baked it.
Callum watched, but it's fine.
Make sure you save a piece for us though,
because we have put a lot of work into it.
I don't know,
I need all of this.
That's the biggest cake
I've ever seen in my life.
Let me come next to you.
My God!
This is amazing.
I'm, like, dying over how big this cake is.
Ariana, do you want to make a wish?
Yes.
Did you just wish
for an exclusive unseen moment?
How did you know?
Well, your birthday
wish has just come true.
Take it away, Iain.
- Hello, everybody, it's Ian Stirling here,
voice of "Love Island"
and voice of that little devil
that's on your shoulder saying, "Do it.
Do it right now."
Anyway, today's unseen moment
happened at Casa around bedtime.
Let me set the scene...
Amaya's in her room,
she's talking to herself...
That's it, that's the scene.
That's the scene set.
- All right. Bye, ladies.
- Have a good night.
- Love you.
- Good night. Love you.
- Jesus Christ, bro,
what a journey has this been.
- I have a lot of stories to tell
my m*therf*cking grandkids one day.
Yeah.
Surviving, social experimenting,
and loving people.
I'm going to be such a cool
with pink f*cking hair.
- Not the pink hair.
- With pink hair.
- That's so valid.
- Just because I don't have
a connection in Casa Amor
would be f*cking insane.
Telling my grandkids.
"You know what?
Go watch Love Island season seven.
Check out your grandmother
when she was 25."
- "When she was 25."
- This is what I get for loving people?
This is what I get?
- She's looking right at our souls.
Amaya's unedited chat with herself
is available right now
on all good streaming platforms
and some bad ones, and I, for one,
enjoyed all 17 hours of it.
Anyway, back to you guys at "Aftersun" HQ
and a big happy birthday,
Ariana!
Happy birthday, babes.
Why did I kiss?
Why did I do that?
Thanks, Iain.
So cute.
Ariana, thank you so, so much.
Thank you.
- Thanks, guys.
- Happy birthday, my darling.
Happy birthday. We love you.
- Our "Love Island" queen.
- You only turn 21 once.
Period.
Give it up for Ariana Madix, everyone.
Whoo-hoo!
Time for a quick break now.
But check this out, Ari.
- What's she doing?
- What you got back there?
- Excuse me.
- Ooh!
- Jeremiah.
What did it say?
Welcome back to "Aftersun."
Our next guest was an OG,
who found himself part of one
of the most talked about stories
of the season, shockingly dumped
just before Casa Amor.
The Villas loss is our gain.
Please welcome Jeremiah.
- Type sh*t. How y'all doing?
How y'all doing?
How you doing?
- Nice to see you.
- How are you?
Good, good.
How are you?
Welcome to "Aftersun".
We are so excited to have you here.
America loves you.
They love you.
- Team Jeremiah.
- You're gonna make me blush.
- Everyone's Team Jeremiah.
- For real.
But did you realize there's a petition
- to get you back in the Villa?
- A petition?
- Yes!
- I signed it.
- Did you?
- I signed it, yeah.
I would have never thought.
I would have never thought, for real.
We have so much
to talk to you about, Jeremiah.
But first, do you want to take a look back
at your time in the Villa?
sh*t. Okay, bet.
I didn't think we'll do that.
- Man, okay.
- Is that a yes?
- Yeah, yes please. Yeah.
- You ready?
God.
Nice to meet you. Jeremiah.
I got lucky. We were just
instant, like, fireworks.
Gonna sweep her off her feet.
You never wanna put
all your eggs in one basket,
but, it's, like, this is
my favorite basket.
I didn't mean to say that.
I almost said it back.
- I am a mom.
- Right now,
I still like you a lot.
- There's no other position
I'd rather be in.
The thing is, I know how sh*t
can just go left at any moment.
- And you think it's real?
- Stop.
Don't do that at our wedding.
My unpopular opinion...
It just seems a bit fraudulent.
Interesting.
- The fact that you act that way.
This is why I don't
want to tell them nothing.
b*tch!
If you don't f*cking quit it right now.
- Hey, that sh*t was crazy.
I ain't gonna lie, bro.
- Can you do more?
- Are you deadass?
- The pancake was undercooked,
so I had to throw it away.
- Okay, Mom. The f*ck?
That's just f*cking rude.
America has been voting,
and the boy they want you
to couple up with is... Jeremiah.
- What?!
- What?
- Hey! Yo, type sh*t!
- My God.
- I'm taking your man.
- Please do.
- Maybe I will.
- God, thank you.
I'm really happy that
you know what you want now.
And you deserve love.
Making memories with y'all this summer
has been the highlight.
So here's to making
more memories with y'all.
- Yay!
- Cheers!
- The boy we want to dump is... Jeremiah.
- Yeah, I remember that.
That sh*t was tough, bro.
Jeremiah, he just left,
but I don't even want to, like, you know,
go to sleep and, like, you're not there.
- You are one of the most
genuine people I've ever met.
I very much already miss you.
Everything about you.
I'm wearing your chain right now, dude.
Pretty cool bling.
Bro, bro, bro, bro, bro.
- Jeremiah, Jeremiah,
I'm gonna miss you so much.
Remember that we all love you.
Love you. See you later.
Love you, guys.
My goodness.
How was that watching that back?
To watch it back is insane.
My God. Sorry.
That was crazy.
Anything like your
heart, like, kind of beat?
The guys, bro.
Like, I know that ended, like, tough,
but we had a lot, a lot of great moments
and it was really good to see those.
- That's good to hear.
- The same with Huda.
Like, to see, like, the good moments,
I was like, "okay.
They were there."
Can we talk about the boys for a second?
- Of course. Yeah, yeah.
- How shocked were you
in that moment to see them pick you?
Did you see it coming at all?
I had, like, a gut feeling,
like, they might just try
to get me out of there
cause me and the bombshell
were getting close.
But then I was like, you know,
Austin, I love him to death,
but he hadn't had, like, a real
connection in three weeks.
So I'm like, "maybe I'm safe."
Nah, they got me out of there.
Who of the guys do
you think influenced that?
Do you think it was
one in particular or...?
Ace just because in the speech
it was, like, falling into old habits.
And then I think he said
that during those four.
But it was probably all of them
to keep it a stack.
Why do you reckon they did it?
Is it because they think you're a threat?
You were balling.
- I was hooping, yeah.
- You were balling.
I mean, you had the baddest b*tches there.
- Exactly.
- That's what I'm saying.
I went two for two, bro,
so I'm proud I did that respectfully, like,
if I did anything else,
I went two for two.
But me and the bombshell,
we were actually doing it the right way.
What they wanted in the
beginning and it wasn't enough.
- So it was probably a little bit of a threat.
- Yeah.
And it's weird 'cause it's,
like, they were on you
about not exploring
and then you're exploring
and then what are we still talking about?
It's like you couldn't do anything right.
- Yeah.
- But from the get-go,
I just felt like
Ace wasn't Team Jeremiah.
Yeah, and I feel like he was
trying to get everyone on board
the ship, you know?
Is he peanut butter and jelly
of you? Do you reckon?
I didn't get...
I don't get the jealous vibes.
I think ever since,
like, literally day one,
we just didn't see eye-to-eye.
Can I talk about Pancake Gate?
Pancake day was the day
I'll never forget.
This is what happened, like,
I'm making the pancake,
and I went and told her, like,
"I can't make all your breakfast",
but I made the pancake,"
but the pancake was rushed,
- that's why I was undercooked.
- So it was undercooked.
Yeah, because I was rushing.
That is true, yeah.
But normally my pancakes
are perfect, as you can see.
Like, usually
I'm the Pancake King.
- Yeah.
- But then it turns out she threw it away,
- and I didn't know that.
- Do you think Huda
had high expectations for you?
Yeah.
Yeah, definitely 1,000%.
Yeah, I can say that.
Yeah. She did.
I think she just had really strong feelings
for you from the get-go.
- Yeah, I agree.
- The chemistry was so enormous.
We got intimate too fast.
We just skipped being friends first.
Obviously, if I could go back,
like, I would say
"I'm not ready to, like, do all that yet."
But I mean, like, I felt the
feeling and I pursued it,
like, you know what I'm saying?
I don't have regrets on that.
What was it that drew you to her?
Like, her gaze, her smell, her smile.
Like, she...
Yeah, she's gorgeous.
So, like, there is so much
and she's hilarious, but, yeah.
Did Huda telling you that she
was a mamacita change things?
Yes and no
because, like, I could
understand that she's a mom.
But being in the Villa, we're so isolated,
like, I can't see the kid,
I can't be in that dynamic.
So I can say at first
I accepted it,
but it would have really had to
get to a point outside the Villa
to fully process it.
Did you ever think in your head
that like, "should I go back to Huda?"
Like, did you miss any parts of her?
Like, "have I made the right decision?"
I just knew that if I did,
my older sister would have whipped my a*s.
So I was just, like,
I would've been like, no,
I know it's not the right move.
Like, I couldn't do it.
And then Andreina came in.
- I think I said, "Thank you, God"
- "Am I in heaven?"
Yeah, I said something like, "my God,
my prayers have been answered."
Like, I was super, super excited
to get to know her even more
cause she made me laugh
like... like no other.
So, it stings a little bit
to keep it a stack.
It definitely stings.
Yeah, well, America saw
something the other night...
- sh*t.
- That you haven't seen yet.
- sh*t.
- We'd love to share it with you
now and get your thoughts.
Okay. God.
Take a look at this.
f*ck.
There's only one way to find out.
Yeah.
I'm... I don't know.
I don't know.
Well, that just caught me off guard.
- I ain't gonna lie.
- Do you ship them?
I think I do.
I don't know, though.
- Um... What?
- Confusing.
Yeah. Sorry.
I'm just, like, wait.
- You're like, "What?"
- Out of all of our couples...
- Yeah.
- Who would you like to see win?
I'm gonna go Austin, cause that's my dog.
- Yeah?
- Yeah, he's unhinged,
and I love him to death,
but, like, he was there for me literally
throughout the whole time,
he was defending my name
when I was out on a date, and I couldn't.
So I want Austin to win.
Pull away your friend, though.
I'm gonna go Ace and Chelley.
Cause I always liked them
from the beginning, even though,
like, me and Ace don't see
eye-to-eye, I still want,
I think, Ace and Chelley can still win.
Yeah.
See, that's a cute a*s couple.
Well, thank you for
being such a brilliant islander.
We've enjoyed watching you so much.
- Thank you.
- I mean, obviously,
the audience are obsessed with you.
- Thank you guys.
- Yeah.
- That means everything. Truly.
- Team Jeremiah!
- Yeah, well done.
- Team Jeremiah!
Congratulations,
and make some noise for Jeremiah, everyone!
You're gonna make me blush.
Time for a quick break now.
But while I've got your attention,
if you can't get enough of "Love Island,"
which is basically everyone,
download the Peacock app
and test your Villa IQ.
You can lock in new predictions
before each episode
and check back later that night
for the result.
You can even predict
what's coming up on "Aftersun."
Got it.
Next up, Cierra and Amaya.
They're live from the Beach Hut.
And later on, Hannah's here.
And nothing's off the table.
See you in a few.
Welcome back to "Aftersun,"
where we can see Callum
in his natural habitat...
The "Aftersun" bar.
Notice how he shakes his shaker.
I reckon that joke's done anyway.
Now, Callum, you're
not just a TV bartender,
you're more than that.
You're an actual bartender, right?
- It seems to be that way, yeah.
- Yeah.
Week four and I'm still going strong
behind this bar, I'm loving it.
What have you made for us this week?
This week's a juicy c*ck.
Just like the juice in
last night's episode.
- I see what you did there.
- Yeah.
Yeah. What's it called?
This one's called the Casa Amor-arita.
Ooh, arita.
- Arita.
- Sounds fun.
- What's in it?
- This one's got juice
and traditional reposado tequila.
- Really?
- Yeah. Give it a try.
Okay.
Should I give it a squeeze?
Give it a squeeze.
Juice reference.
- How good!
- Delicious.
Should we take some over for the girls?
- Yeah, let's do it.
- Okay. Don't spill it.
- I'll try my best.
- Well, I can't spill it on the dress,
- I've got to return it.
- The precious goods.
Be careful.
Thank you.
And hopefully Cierra and Amaya
should be standing by for us
right now in the Beach Hut.
So let's go live to the Beach
Hut with Cuervo Tequila.
Hey!
Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Hello, hello.
- Hi, guys.
I'm Sophie Monk.
Nice to meet you girls.
I'm here with Cely.
I'm here with Callum and Kassy.
- Hi.
- Kassy, my girl.
What are you doing here?
What are you doing here, chica?
- Cheers. Cheers.
- Cheers, baby.
- Cheers, guys.
- Cheers, y'all.
It's been a great night.
How are you both feeling?
- So good today.
- Yes.
Very, very good and very grateful.
Thank you guys so much for having us.
- Yes.
- How did you enjoy your little girls holiday
to Casa Amor?
- I don't know.
- I mean, listen.
I definitely had a time,
you know, walking in there,
I feel like it was a new journey
and a new opportunity
for us to explore options.
But we are happy to be back in the Villa.
We're back in the Villa now.
- Back home.
- So Casa Amor is a memory.
Honey, we're home!
I know.
And you have a couple, Amaya.
Yes! Finally, right?
I know you guys saw my girl with two men
stood on her heart last night.
I felt like a sandwich.
An Amaya Papaya sandwich.
We love it for you.
We love it.
Amaya, how's it going with Zak?
It's going amazing.
I feel like we connect
in a different level.
Just his story, how he carries himself.
Very mature, but very funny.
And I'm just hoping for the best
because, you know,
in the Villa you never know what
the hell is going to happen.
But as of right now, your girl is happy.
You both seem very happy.
- But, Cierra, I've got to ask.
- Ask.
You briefly thought Nic
had been dumped from the Villa?
My God, girl.
You cried. You cried, girl.
I know that fire pit is sick of my tears.
But how good was it to see
him walk back in the Villa?
Was that the best?
Not to be dramatic,
but, like, I felt this breath
of life come back into me.
Because you have to understand, like,
not only had I just processed
that he had been dumped,
but I was also mourning
Olandria.
So to see them both walk in together,
- I was, like...
- We're like, "What?"
"my gosh."
Colors were brighter.
Like, everything was moving in slow motion.
I had no idea how to react.
This has been a crazy roller coaster.
One day you're up, next day you're down.
I didn't have my seatbelt on tight enough
for this one, for sure.
Well, girls, to go with
today's juicy c*ck,
we have some extra juicy questions
and a game I like to call
"Juicy Confessions."
- I like it, I like it.
- Okay!
- Bring it on.
- Here's the deal.
I'll ask you both some quick-fire questions
that are both juicy and totally invasive.
I'm so sorry.
It's just what we do here.
- My goodness.
- Bring it in, bring it in.
Do you swear to spill the whole tea
and nothing but the tea?
I solemnly swear.
Do you swear on Ariana Madix?
- Definitely.
- My God, yes.
- This is serious.
- This is serious.
Wow.
Who is the best kisser in the Villa?
Chelley.
Zak.
Which boy is the best dancer?
- Ooh, Ace.
- Ace.
Which girl has the best butt?
- Ooh, Andreina.
- Ooh, Andreina.
- Are you kidding me?
- Are you kidding me?
- My gosh.
- Baby, that a*s shake
is it's own earthquake.
Which Casa boy would you
sneak into the Hideaway with?
Ooh.
I mean, that's my guy right now. Zak.
That's why we brought him back over here.
I would probably say Elan.
- Okay.
- I'm telling Nic.
If you had to be in a throuple
with two islanders, who would it be?
Ooh.
Nic and Iris.
I would say Zak and Pepe.
Sorry, Zak.
Getting some good intel on this, right?
I would love to see that.
Okay. Time's up.
Thank you so much, girls.
- That was so interesting.
- Whoo!
Cheers!
That was such a fun game.
Thank you, Amaya Papaya!
- Bye, guys!
- Love you, guys!
Bye, Amaya!
Still to come...
We've got Hannah joining us in the studio.
But first, it's time for me and Cely
to magically change costume and location
for the "Love Island" news.
Over to you, Sophie.
- Thanks, Cely.
- You're watching the Nightly Tea on VNN...
The Villa News Network.
- I'm Sophie Monk.
But most people call me
the knockoff version of Margot Robbie.
- And I'm Cely Vazquez.
But you can call me...
Any time if you're Charlie.
My gosh, that's so unprofessional.
But seriously, Charlie,
please give her a call.
Our top story tonight,
our undercover investigation
into the secret world of boys.
- Using cutting-edge camera technology,
our reporters were finally
able to answer the question,
"What do boys do when
girls aren't around?"
- Finally.
- Finally.
- Yo, let's all do our model walks down...
Down the runway here of our fits.
- What are we going to do?
Shortest to tallest?
- Whoo!
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah!
- Hit two pauses, hit two pauses.
One, two. Walk back.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Hey!
- Yeah!
- Whoo!
- Yeah.
- Yo!
- Shocking stuff.
Now to Sport.
And earlier this week,
Casa Amor played host to
the world's hula hoop tryouts.
- The judges said the islanders
should try doing something else.
- They don't have a hula hoop.
- Let's see who can do it the longest.
- Yeah, let's see. Let's see.
- I haven't hula hooped
since high school, though.
- I haven't done this in forever.
- No.
- You can't...
Y'all are the worst hula hoopers
I've ever seen in my life.
- Bro, like, what the f*ck's going on, bro?
- I got nothing.
- Okay. What is this hula hoop, though?
Yeah, this sh*t is small.
- Yeah.
No, I can't do this sh*t.
If this was like a do-or-die situation,
I would have definitely been
dead already, you know?
- And finally,
poolside peace was shattered today
when Cierra picked a fight
with her nemesis... gravity.
- And despite
Cierra's confidence,
gravity proved just too strong.
- Wow.
That's the one.
My God.
- She tried, but Cierra missed.
- She certainly did.
- Well, that's all from us
here at The Nightly Tea.
- No, it's not Cely.
Some late breaking news.
Sources have just revealed
that after the break,
Hannah speaks out on everything
that happened inside and outside the Villa.
We will see you soon.
- Do not go anywhere.
- Don't.
- Well, news has been
hard this week, hasn't it?
Welcome back to "Aftersun."
Now a bombshell has one job...
To make an impact.
And, boy, did our next guest over-deliver.
She stole Charlie's heart, then Pepe's,
and I bet she's about to steal mine too.
Please give it up for Hannah.
- Hi.
Hello.
Hannah, welcome to "Aftersun".
It is so good to have you.
I'm so happy to be here.
How's post-Villa life treating you?
It was hard for a few days,
but I think now, um,
I've kind of processed everything.
I've been through all the emotions,
but, like, I'm okay now.
You had so many great moments.
- A few.
- Our editor Becs
actually had a hard time
of cutting down your highlights
cause there was too many.
- Are you ready?
- Okay.
- Buckle up.
- Brace yourself.
- Game's not over yet.
- That's how you bombshell!
- sh*t just got interesting, boys.
- I don't even think you guys knew my name.
My tongue was already down your throat.
- To be honest, you've added something
completely different to the Villa.
- In a good way or a bad way?
- Great way.
- Charlie is the embodiment of my type.
Plus, he has that little British accent
that makes me want to tip-tip-cheerio.
Take my clothes off, you know?
- Again!
- Start ringing the church bells!
- She's cute.
And I'm really excited to see
where this goes.
So the girl that I want
to couple up with is Hannah.
- Congratulations, Hannah.
Someone could always come into the Villa
that may take your attention.
You have nothing to worry about.
Watching those men walk in,
it was like watching
angels fall to the Earth.
It's like he wasn't even here.
- I'm f*cked.
- You think that's random?
I'm sure you know, obviously,
a little bit of the drama that's gone down.
I can't believe you're coming at me
when you literally
just made out with some guy.
- I don't think it's possible
for anything to be better.
- Pepe, America wants you
to couple up with Hannah.
Hannah, Hannah.
- The islander I am choosing
to dump is... Charlie.
- America put you guys together.
But now you guys have
decided to be together.
So America must have seen something.
- They must have gotten something right.
- He makes me happy.
No gloss today because I always
end up kissing it all off.
I really like my connection with Pepe.
He continues to wow me.
Now it's time to dive deeper
and grow our connection.
The girl we want to dump is...
Hannah.
It f*cking sucks.
This one really, really hurt.
I just, like, don't know
how to talk to the people
who just voted for me to leave.
- Hey, Hannah.
My bombshell sister.
I love you so much.
And I'm grateful for
the friendship that we built.
This is not a goodbye.
It's "until next time."
- I want you to know
you're an amazing woman.
You definitely made this
wild experience so much better.
And I cannot wait to see you
when I get out of here.
- I'm gonna miss you all so much.
- Love you.
- See you later.
Love you, guys.
Aww!
Hannah.
What a beautiful time in there.
You're a joy to watch.
Like, you made us all laugh.
- You're such a light.
- I'm still blushing.
Darling. How does it feel
watching all that back?
It's hard. It's really hard.
And I think that's, like, the first time
I've really seen this stuff without crying.
I feel like
I'm really emotional,
so, like, it was hard watching it back.
But I think I'm really, like, at peace
and grateful for the experience that I had.
And I really made the best friends
and, like, the best connections.
I wish I could do it all over again.
Being voted out by your
fellow islanders is so tough,
even more so when it's your friends.
- Yeah.
- Do you want to see
what Huda, Olandria,
Cierra, and Chelley had to say?
Yeah, I'm sick right now, but yes, I do.
- Let's have a look.
- Okay.
Hannah Banana, I am so sad
to be making this message to you.
I really, really did not want to
be sending you home tonight.
- I truly hope that
you find somewhere in your heart
to forgive us and know that
this was a hard decision.
- I'm so sorry if I ever upset you in here,
and I just want to let you know
that, like, I will always care about you.
And you have a sister for life.
And I will always, always be
here for you, no matter what.
Even if you leave here
and you f*cking hate me,
I don't hate you.
- I could say sorry a million times
and you could never
understand our decision.
And maybe I can't even
understand our decision too,
but I just want you to know that
you truly are deserving
of everything and more.
And there's better coming.
So, I love you so much.
Love, Chelley.
And see you later.
Aww.
You were very hurt by them at the time.
How do you feel now? Are you...
You know I love those girls to death.
There was a lot of anger.
- Yeah.
- But I think now it's just,
like, I just miss them a lot.
Let's chat about Charlie for a second.
What was it you saw in Charlie?
The moment we made
eye contact for the first time,
like, it was like nobody else was there.
That's like a movie.
That's like a movie, isn't it?
- Yeah.
- Do you still feel things for Charlie?
I think with Charlie, like,
he just made me feel like a little kid.
Like, my laugh could be heard
across the world,
I think when I was with Charlie,
like, I can't wait to reconnect with him
and like, just talk about our experience.
But we never really talked
about life outside of the Villa,
so it's hard to navigate.
'Cause it was early days.
- And Pepe.
- Yeah.
Before Charlie was dumped,
you and Pepe kissed.
What was that like?
The thing is,
I'm not going to kiss someone
unless it feels right.
So I think when I kissed him,
it's 'cause I wanted to kiss him.
I feel like you could see that.
Yeah. I'm like, come on.
And, like, can you blame me?
- Really? Can you blame me?
- No, not for you.
But, like, I mean, you guys
look very sweet together.
Yeah. He's so amazing.
And I think we did have, like,
a lot of deep conversations
that I just never had with anyone else.
And he would just listen.
He would listen to me talk for hours
and not get a single word in.
And he was, like, so content with that.
And I love a man who just listens.
- I love a man who listens to me.
- He does.
That's all we want, girls.
- A man who listens.
- Exactly, a listener.
Did a part of you want Pepe
to leave with you that night?
Um,
I thought, like, for a moment,
yes, that would be nice.
But I think also
I never wanted him to, like
lose out on his full experience.
You really feel like that?
You're a bigger person than me.
What do you think is next for you?
You know, I have been
a student, like, my whole life.
I haven't done, like, anything else.
This is my first time out of the country.
I want to travel and,
like, really experience life
outside of school.
This was a good start to that.
Yeah, and, like, this is the
craziest summer of my life.
Like, Fiji...
I'm like, "This is insane."
Hannah, you came in hard
and you went out even harder.
You've been an unforgettable islander.
Let's please hear it for Hannah, everyone.
- Hannah!
- Thank you!
You guys are making me blush.
I'm, like...
I'm bright red right now.
After the break...
CoCo, JD, Vanna, and Zac
will be giving their take on what went down
in the Villa last night.
If you miss it, there's a good chance
you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
I'm a bit dramatic, but it's true.
Welcome back to "Aftersun."
In a moment, we'll be joined by CoCo,
JD,
Vanna,
and Zac.
But first,
a chance to get to know the full Casa cast
the old-fashioned way,
with a Beach Hut quickie.
- I got a...
- Text!
sh*t.
Ooh, yes I am.
- I'm hitting the backflip.
That's... That's the best thing
I got.
Definitely faking a shot.
I can do a one-legged squat.
I can bust a split.
Like, if I had to, like, if I
really needed to take it there,
I'm taking it there, yeah.
I've got young Will Smith so much.
I've gotten a young Ben Affleck.
My school dinner lady,
she used to say I look a bit
like the Asian Bruno Mars.
I feel like
I've got Madelyn Cline the most.
I ain't gonna lie, that little spoon
be feeling kind of nice sometimes.
Always the big spoon.
I'm giving out my secrets.
I'm a big little spoon guy.
I love being hugged.
If a guy wanted to be the little spoon,
I'll make it happen every once in a while.
I'm not big spooning nobody.
You know what?
I hate to say it.
I love being the big spoon.
- Y'all want me to
disclose that on TV? sh*t.
It's like 810.
Something like that.
What are you guys trying to do,
steal my identity or something?
I'd probably say my eye contact.
Like, probably either my t*ts or my smile.
I think my eyes are my best feature.
I think they're very unique.
I would say my smile.
I'd say my hair. Curly hair.
I think it's the...
I think it's the booty that takes the cake.
I'd have to say Prone.
Missionary, but a pillow under the back.
If you know, you know.
Come on.
Those boys, they got to earn
that information.
Probably me on top.
Ten. The hell?
What are you talking about?
Come on. You see me?
I'd rate myself a seven,
but on a good day,
I can go up to a nine.
I'm a m*therf*cking ten.
I would give myself a nine out of ten
as a total package.
I'm gonna say 12.
Love that.
Fresh from last night's
dramatic recoupling,
we're joined now by CoCo,
JD,
Vanna, and Zac.
Guys, welcome.
How you feeling?
- I'm feeling good.
- I feel great.
- Yeah.
- Feeling good.
You all seem chill.
Yeah.
How's it feel watching yourselves back?
- It's weird.
- And that's just a little bit.
It's crazy.
- Yeah. For real.
- It's actually hilarious.
As Casa islanders,
you had the power
in the recoupling this week.
Was it nice that the OGs
had to graft for you for once
and not be the other way around?
Yeah, I think it was definitely a good way
of structuring it this year,
just because we kind of had power in the...
In the beginning, which kind of felt nice.
And there was like an equal kind of, like,
all around reboot of the whole thing.
- Yeah.
- Like that's its own experience.
- It really is.
- All the Casa boys were super close
after the first, like, two days.
- First days, yeah.
- 24 hours, yeah.
- Seriously.
- We were like already brothers.
CoCo and Vanna,
what was it like entering the main Villa
in that kissing challenge with the boys,
not knowing what's going on at all?
It was insane.
I mean, it was insane,
but it was, like, exciting.
It was... It was funny.
That challenge was hilarious.
I literally said to them like,
"I hope I go first
because I don't want
to kiss everybody last."
- That's so real.
- And they threw me last.
CoCo, you were coupled up with Ace.
How did you feel going into the recoupling?
Did you have high hopes
that he was going to choose you?
I wouldn't say I had high hopes,
but I was confident, like, you know,
and I stood in my confidence.
I know we had a connection and
I know he was feeling your girl.
He didn't hesitate to remind me.
But also he spent a
lot of time with Chelley,
and Chelley's great, so I'm just
really happy for them.
They deserve love.
They deserve happiness.
Do you think if you went in
earlier, do you think you...
Yeah.
I would have bagged it.
If I, if I had went in earlier,
I would have bagged it.
That's an easy call.
You know what I'm saying?
- Yeah.
- Did you notice that
you and Chelley had a similar outfit?
- Bro, I gagged.
- And the flower in the hair.
It was, like, crazy.
Yo, it was a flower in
the hair that did it for me.
From one chocolate girl to another.
So, Vanna, where do you think
it went wrong for you?
Was it telling TJ that he had RBF?
Me and that man,
we were not compatible at all.
- No?
- Not at all.
Okay, well, that's good
that it didn't work out.
Unfortunately.
We gave it a good go.
What do you think it was missing?
- Personality.
- Okay.
Flavor.
I shouldn't say that, no.
He has a good personality.
We just were on completely
different wavelengths.
- Yeah.
- Made a great coffee, though.
- That's important.
- Yeah, it really is.
One tick.
That's the top of my list.
Zac, I've got to ask.
- You wrote Iris's name down?
- I did.
What was it you saw in her?
I mean, I can get it.
Physically, I was
definitely attracted to her.
And, like, it seemed
like we wanted the same things,
but I think, like, she kind of
had TJ in the back of her mind
cause they left on a really high note.
And then there was like that, you know,
longing of the distance.
Boys, can I ask?
Did any of the Casa girls catch your eye?
Including the ones just right here.
When they walked in,
I was like...
We were both like, "Damn," like...
Really? Which ones?
- Everyone.
- Everyone.
No one will know if you till us.
Okay, but who are your tops?
Vanna, CoCo.
Thank you so much.
Please give it up for JD, Zac,
Vanna, and CoCo, everyone.
- Whoo!
- Thank you guys.
That's all we've got time for tonight.
