New phone, who dis? The most forgettable Love Islanders of all time that you forgot existed

Elma would have been on this list if it weren’t for her recent unforgettable rants


You’ve obviously heard of Molly-Mae and Tommy, and there is no forgetting the soothing tones of Maura Higgins’ accent, but not all Love Islanders are created equal and some are completely forgettable.

Look, Love Island has been on TV since 2015 and in the 10 years since, there have been over 300 people to walk into that villa. You can’t expect to remember them all, and yet, usually, a picture or anecdote is all it takes for those memories to come flooded back.

Not these guys though, these former Islanders require a full Google search, a dig through the ITV archives, and a private investigator to evoke even brief recollections of their time on the show.

1. Craig Lawson – season three

In season three of Love Island, Craig Lawson was swallowed up by bigger personalities such as Kem and Chris. Though I’m betting you remember the face of Jamie Jewitt – the man who stole Craig’s girl Camilla Thurlow – unfortunately, Craig gets lost in a sea of washboard abs and patchy fake tans.

2. Jon Clark – season one

After a totally forgettable appearance in season one, Jon took another stab at fame in arguably TV’s most forgettable reality TV show, Towie.

3. Amelia Peters – season three

Amelia spent just two days in the Love Island villa after failing to turn heads during her Casa Amor entrance.

4. Carl Woods – season two

We all know Carl Woods as the ex-husband of Katie Price but I always forget that he arrived as a Love Island bombshell in 2016. He was on the show for a grand total of one episode.

5. Poppy Farnan – season one

Poppy Farnan also stayed in the villa for just one day which might be why I can’t remember her face. Fingers crossed she gets the Love Island All Stars 2026 call because Elma did.

6. John and Tony Alberti – season one

John and Tony Alberti

I only briefly turned into season one of Love Island, which might be why I can’t remember the three-day stay of twins John and Tony Alberti. You’d think identical toned Italian hunks would be a screaming hit with viewers, but apparently not.

7. Oliver Maxwell Fernandez – season two

People with three names like to think of themselves as the most interesting people on the planet, but Oliver serves as a reminder that pretty people can be boring too.

8. Afia Tonkmor – season eight

Afia Tonkmor

When posed the question on Reddit, people suggested Afia Tonkmor as one of the most forgettable Love Islanders of all time. She starred in season eight for five days when her crowning achievement was going on a single date with Jacques O’Neill.

9. James Khan – season two

Another two-day tornado that turned out to be a light breeze, James Khan now looks completely different after years of bodybuilding.
