Love Island 2018: Former contestant exposes RESTRICTIONS over this
After originally being a celebrity series over a decade ago, Love Island made it’s anticipated return to screens three years ago and has since grown to become a hugely popular reality TV show with millions tuning in every night at 9pm. But fans only get to see a one hour montage of filmed footage from every 24 hours, so what happens behind the scenes when the cameras are rolling? Ex-contestant Chris Williamson, who was in the first series which aired in 2015, has lifted the lid on life on the ITV2 show. The Newcastle events director and model was the first guy into the villa and is good friends with this year’s islander Adam Collard. Speaking to Chronicle Live, Chris revealed the islanders are restricted to a certain number of drinks each night.
He dished: "It’s definitely not like Geordie Shore and Ex on the Beach, when people seem like they’re drunk all the time. "We just get the two drinks per night." He went on to add that contestants are always unaware of the time of day. Chris explained: “That’s probably the craziest thing. When you wake up, when you go to bed - you never know the time! “Even when you go out the villa, the car clocks get changed and even the driver’s watch! It’s really confusing.” His revelations come after Love Island viewers have been given a good dose of the drama this week.

An epic recoupling at the beginning of the week saw Josh Denzel walk in with a new girl on his arm leaving "loyal" Georgia Steel to stand solo and become single. That same night, Megan Barton Hanson chose to recouple with new boy Alex Miller, just days after convincing Wes Nelson to break off things with Laura Anderson. Last night ITV2 viewers saw the fall out from both recouplings as Josh tried to apologise and explain to Georgia his reasons for choosing Kazimir Crossley. However the Blackpool beauty wasn’t having any of his excuses and instead composed herself and walked away, where she proceeded to breakdown in front of friend Dani Dyer about her heartbreak. But it hasn’t been plain sailing for Dani either. After coupling up with Jack Fincham from the beginning of the series, the pair were tested when the villa was split and the boys were sent to Casa Amor.
