Hayley Soen | Love Island 2022

Love Island 2022 has kicked off with its first episode last night and that means one thing and one thing only – the balancing act of trying to watch the show and keep up with the memes has commenced.

Last night the memes were on fire. None of us could get over Gemma only being 19, her clearly wanting to scream from the villa rooftop that her dad is Michael Owen and it was very clear that all the couples the public put together were deeply, deeply unimpressed with that decision.

The drama is back in full swing! Here are all the best memes and reactions to the first episode of Love Island 2022.
