Laura’s Love Island hint
Laura took to her Instagram on Thursday morning with a picture of herself on the sofa with a bowl of popcorn captioned: ‘Tomorrow 9pm @channel4 we’re on the sofa for the final time this series’. This year’s series of Celebrity Gogglebox only started last Friday and is set to run another 7 weeks.
The news that Laura and Iain are ducking out of the series early feeds into speculation that the couple are already in Majorca ahead of Love Island 2021. On Tuesday, Iain sent fans into a frenzy by posting a snap of his and Laura’s Love Island water bottles on a table somewhere sunny.
The telltale palm trees in the background led many fans to come to the conclusion that the couple had already flown out to Majorca to start filming. What’s more, Iain’s caption teased ‘Not long now...’. We know that Love Island 2021 is definitely starting this month, with Monday 28th June expected to be the start date.
Is Love Island 2021 in Majorca?
ITV have still not officially confirmed that Love Island 2021 is being filmed in Majorca—but it is looking more and more likely, as workers were pictured making renovations on the villa last month. Bosses are said to have been ‘determined’ to return to the Spanish island if Covid restrictions allowed.
