Love Island viewers have been left stunned after new bombshell Lolly Hart entered the villa on Thursday night. Lolly, a 30-year-old cabin crew worker, was the latest bombshell to enter the villa — pulling former The Only Way is Essex star Joey Essex, 33, Konnor Ewudzi, 28, and Ciaran Davies, 21, into the hideaway for one-on-one dates. After making her way into the main villa following the dates, where she spoke to the rest of the lads — saying ‘you’re all gorgeous.
Obviously I had to pick three people for a date and I’m sure I’ll get to know you all later, but I’m Lolly, I’m 30 and I’m from Leicester and I’m Cabin Crew.’ ‘The main thing [I’m looking for] is a huge personality, someone that matches your energy, you can both bounce off each other, someone who is confident and can just take the lead you know – like a man,’ she added — before she got embroiled in a bit of drama with Jessy, who pulled her aside for a girl’s chat after comments were made about Jessy and Joey being coupled up while Lolly and Joey were on their date. ‘I think your personality and my personality would go together to a tee, but I have got something to say.
.. you’ve kinda gone back in your shell a little bit from the beginning, please correct me if I’m wrong,’ Lolly told Joey.
‘I feel like you’re jokey, laughy [sic] and fun but since you’ve been with Jessy, she’s a gorgeous, gorgeous girl, she’s naturally beautiful but I don’t know if there’s something missing between you both.’ Jessy confronted Lolly on the comments, telling her ‘To me it came across like a bit of a low blow and a cheap shot..
. I didn’t come in speaking about his relationship with Grace and it just seemed like you’re trying to get into his head and it doesn’t sit right and I wanted to speak to you directly .’ Despite the drama between Jessy and Lolly, fans couldn’t help but be shocked at Lolly’s age — with some believing that she, being the second oldest in the villa behind 33-year-old Joey, is too old to be on Love Island.
‘This babe is too old for the show even,’ one wrote on Twitter (X). ’30 on a dating show # loveisland ,’ while another added ‘Lolly [is] 30 and thinks ciaran 21 is mature! oooh auntie please.’ Others were left in disbelief that Lolly is 30 with one writing: ‘Can we get an age check on Lolly.
..there’s no way she’s 30 #loveisland’.
Others joked that Lolly isn’t going by her actual name of Lauren, with one saying ‘Can’t believe this girlie is 30 years old and going by lolly instead of lauren,’ while another wrote ‘Nicknamed lolly and you’re 30? Be serious.’ A post shared by Lolly Hart (@lollyhart_) Elsewhere, the show has been hit with more Ofcom complaints following an explosive row between Nicole an Ciaran following the show’s ever controversial movie night..
