23 savage memes about the Grafties that prove it’s the best Love Island addition in years

When the producers declared the Grafties, we knew there’d be drama. But I don’t think any of us were prepared for what we actually got, which was ROLL THE TAPES. The tapes were well and truly rolled, and situations were flipped on their heads with secrets spilled and carnage reigning. We literally got Movie Night 2: This Time It’s Personal – and I’m so thankful for it. As usual, the memes and tweets as everyone watched the chaos unfold were the highlight of it all – so here’s a quick roundup of the best reacting to the first ever Love Island Grafties.

1. Lochan was on smoke and I was living

“why are you piping up as usual” “cant you speak to someone normally” get him again for me lochan #loveisland pic.twitter.com/D2IE2hNu58

First Catherine, then Jess, now Whitney….. ELLA your no neck man has continually disrespected and been rude to not only just women but your girl besties in the Villa unprovoked and yet you stay mute every time ????#LoveIsland pic.twitter.com/2hkCSjBj8A

22. Not a want but a NEED

Send Catherine back into the villa for a conversation with Scott.

Catherine apologies to Scott and asks if they can reconcile.

Scott says yes and leaves the villa to be with Catherine.

Please, producers. This is the perfect way to end Scott’s journey. #LoveIsland pic.twitter.com/IsFwF5g6Q6
