While the producers of “Love Island” may refute the claims that the show is scripted, they are believed to create conflict to fit the narrative they want to air on television. Tyla Carr, from Season 3 of the U.K. version of the show, told Daily Star in 2018 that producers “suggest” topics for Islanders to bring up (via HeatWorld). “What viewers don’t see is there is always a producer on site. They don’t live in the villa with us but someone generally comes in every hour to have a chat,” Carr said. “They tell you what they want you to talk about, and who with.”
Fan-favorite Molly-Mae Hague (Season 5) told Closer Online the exact same thing. “Sometimes you have to do things in there you don’t necessarily want to do … for the storyline,” Hague said. Like when Anton Danyluk got a cashier’s number as a joke and producers told Hague to tell castmate Anna Vakili after her love interest Tommy Fury told Hague not to spill. It, of course, created the desired drama. While former contestant from the same season, Amy Hart, told her TikTok followers that “it’s not scripted at all” (via Hello Magazine), it’s clear other Islanders have a different take.
