Love Island's Olivia Hawkins predicts Molly Marsh will 'RETURN' to the villa đź‘€
Fans are pretty convinced, too!
Last updated 27th Jun 2023
It's safe to say that we're pretty much all in agreement that Love Island bosses have pulled out all the stops to up the drama this year. From surprise recouplings to the arrival of Kady McDermott, this year's Summer series certainly hasn't disappointed so far. And speaking of drama, of course topping the list is the shock dumping that saw Molly Marsh leave the villa!
As fans will know, Molly - who fans previously dubbed a 'favourite to win' - was brutally dumped from the island last week (23rd June), when returning season two bombshell Kady chose to couple up with Zach. But is Molly's journey really over? Fans - and Winter Love Island star Olivia Hawkins - are convinced otherwise... Did someone say, Casa Amor?
Is Molly coming back to Love Island?
Discussing the shock dumping in her Love Island column for OK!, Olivia Hawkins revealed: 'I really don't think this is the last we have seen of Molly on this year's show'.
She then added: 'I have a feeling she will return to the show during Casa Amor - which will be very awkward if Zachariah pursues anything romantic with Kady.'
Although Molly is now back in the UK, dans are still convinced that ITV bosses could fly the 21-year-old back out to Mallorca in time for Casa Amor week. Despite bosses keeping tight-lipped about any future plans, a previous season of Love Island Australia did once see a twist in which the dumpee didn't actually end up leaving the villa.
And Olivia isn't the only one with suspicions, with Sam Thompson, Kaz Kamwi and Nadia Jae all sharing their predictions on the Love Island: The Morning After podcast. Nadia said: "I honestly think Molly is going to go to Casa Amor to be head girl, twerk her way in through her entrance, have all the boys at her yard because her milkshake brings them there.
"And then she’s going to come back and it’s going to be Kady’s house vs. Molly’s house - the showdown."
On top of the theory that Molly may return for Casa Amor, fans have taken to Twitter to reminisce over the dramatic season two twist that saw Malin Andersson fly back out to Mallorca to confront her love interest Terry Walsh, following him cracking on with another girl after Malin was dumped from the villa.
Could we see another blast from the season two past make its way into the 2023 Summer series?
