Has anyone been watching Love Island: Beyond the Villa lately? I keep seeing clips on TikTok and it’s been making me want to watch, but mentally I cannot handle a show with that cast anymore. Last summer was so toxic and I might not be strong enough for this spin off… Should iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii though???
