Nine
The sun’s out, the hearts are racing, and Sophie Monk is back to guide our fresh-faced Islanders through a season of tough love in Mallorca. This year, no one’s getting an easy ride, as proven by the fiery first coupling of the season. Here’s where everyone landed after the girls got to “try before they buy” at the firepit – the ultimate in Love Island twists!
Meet the first couples of Love Island Australia 2024
Em and Indigo
It’s not all smooth sailing for Em and Indigo, though. Em, a committed vegan, quickly finds herself at odds with Indigo, who doesn’t quite know what to make of her lifestyle choices. While they both seem open to getting to know each other, there are a few early hurdles they’ll have to navigate if they’re going to find common ground and stay coupled up.
Mimi and Zane
Mimi and Zane have started strong, and while their initial connection doesn’t exactly scream fireworks, there’s a quiet ease between them. Zane, cool and collected, seems more than happy to let things progress naturally. Whether this steady start will lead to something deeper or fizzle out as the days go on remains to be seen!
Eilisha and Dylan
Then there’s Eilisha and Dylan, who might just be the villa’s resident flirts! After a lively intro by the firepit, these two quickly pair up and seem genuinely excited to explore what’s ahead. Dylan’s confidence and Eilisha’s openness make them a dynamic duo from the get-go – one to watch as they settle into island life.
Xanthe and Kane
Rounding out the lineup are Xanthe and Kane, whose light-hearted energy brings an air of fun to the villa. They’re already chatting easily and laughing together, making for a promising first connection. Kane’s go-with-the-flow attitude seems to match well with Xanthe’s bubbly nature – will this easygoing pair blossom into a romance?
Hannah and Niko
Right from the start, there’s undeniable chemistry between Hannah and Niko. After the dust settles from the coupling, sparks fly as they tour the villa together, and it’s clear that these two are vibing. Niko, with his laid-back charm, has Hannah feeling all the feels, but will it be enough to stand the test of time in the villa?
Just when they’re all getting cozy, the villa gets rocked by a bombshell text – Hannah gets the message that Taylor, a 28-year-old, tattooed Melbourne wharfie, is on his way! With muscles, tattoos, and undeniable charisma, Taylor’s arrival has the boys feeling some heat. The girls, though, are impressed – looks like he’s about to throw a major wrench in these fresh couples!
Stay tuned, as these first pairs navigate their brand-new connections and face the unexpected twists that Love Island always brings. Will Taylor’s entrance shake up the villa or just make these couples stronger? The drama has only just begun!
