Love Island stars miss Lionesses' historic Euros win for key reason

However, there are 14 football fans who weren't able to watch the big game last night - and they are all still in Love Island villa.

The Mirror can reveal that the Love Island cast who are still on the show didn't get a chance to watch the Euros 2025 final and England's history-making win last night - but it was all for an important reason. With the Love Island final fast approaching, viewers will get to see the contestants' friends and family enter the villa after several weeks of firepit fallouts and tumultuous love triangles.

A source revealed to The Mirror that the Love Islanders weren't able to watch the final as they were too busy reuniting with their friends and family ahead of tonight's episode. "Friends and family were visiting the Villa which was a priority for the Islanders," they said.

Tonight's episode of Love Island will see the cast's friends and families enter the villa - with viewers excited to see what Helena and Shakira's relatives will have to say to Harry after their tense love triangle. One viewer wrote: "This is about to be the messiest meet the parents episode of love island EVERRR," whilst another said: "I don’t think it’s smart for the producers to do a meet the parents in real life this season, it has to be on zoom."

Last night's episode teased the dramatics to come, with the mother of contestant Toni Laites is seen making an entrance and is heard bellowing: "Is Toni here?" After spotting her mum, Toni gasps and runs away.

Last night's episode saw Harry Cooksley and Shakira Khan couple up once again Harry broke off his romance with Helena Ford. While in a clip shown on After Sun, Harry and Shakira were seen in an intimate moment after rekindling things.

Fans have been quick to point out Harry's "game plan" after his sudden romantic U-turn. One user on Twitter/X said: "Harry knows Shakira is most popular with public his game plan working to a tee."

Another wrote: "IF THERE IS A VOTE IM VOTING HARRY AND SHAKIRA WITH NO SHAME #LoveIsland," while a third added: "Just watch! People will vote for Harry and Shakira,"
