Well, what a rollercoaster, as I Kissed A Girl hit our screens.
Gay panic.
And you lot were here for it.
Typical lesbian shit.
Now, eight months on from the masseria mayhem.
- Don't sit here and laugh. - Naee, I'm not even.
I called to say...
Who did I find out the truth from, bro?
Strap in...
I'm just gonna go and buy a hat.
...for I Kissed a Girl, the reunion.
Hello and welcome to I Kissed a Girl, the reunion.
Last summer,
I had the privilege of playing Cupid for the UK's first cast of queer
girls and weren't they just incredible?
It started with a kiss, and from then on, the rollercoaster did not stop.
Things moved so quickly, I've only just recovered from the whiplash.
Now, eight months on,
the girls are back to reveal all that's happened since their summer
of love, and I am dying to know the gossip.
Who is still together?
And who has found a new golden retriever?
Okay, shall we get started? - Yeah!
Please give it up for the girls!
Girls, how good is it to see you back together?
You look beautiful. Who's excited?
- Very excited. - Who's nervous?
Me.
Well, we have so much to get through tonight,
but before we let the cats out of the bag, let's take a look at our
sizzling summer in Italy.
I am about to kiss a girl that I've never met.
- No small talk. - No swiping on the apps.
- It's just a kiss.
- Hot girl queer summers here! - Let's go, lesbians!
- I can't wait to see this. - I don't know what's gonna happen.
- Fit girls, beautiful masseria. - Nobody's fucking safe.
Tits everywhere.
Just looked at Hannahs boobs and got distracted.
I'm ready to kiss some girls.
Uh-oh.
Buongiorno!
Which girl is giving you that red flag bye?
Here we go.
- What were you saying? - Some girly chat.
- It's either a yes or a no. - Naee took me to the terrace yesterday.
She just pissed me off.
Are you scared about splitting any couple up?
- No. - What the fuck?
- I don't chase, I attract. - It's a shame that it hasn't happened.
- I'm never that girl. - Are you just talking shit?
You literally just threw me under the bus.
I love the drama.
I just feel like you've been a complete bitch behind my back.
What the actual flip is going on?
If I didn't like you, I'd have gone home.
It's really fucking tough.
The gayer, the better.
Live, laugh, love, lesbian.
This isthe best hot queer girl summer I have ever had.
Sexy girls and Danny Minogue. Iconic.
You ladies, what an impression you've made.
I mean, I was watching like that, but I loved every second of it, Amy.
I went back to Australia and I'm like,
I wonder if she's taken the boots off yet.
No, they're still on.
And Fiorenza, the eyes.
We've got to talk about that moment on the terrace,
because when you want to turn it on, you can put us in a trance, right Meg?
Yeah!
Your flirt game was on fire, and the fans noticed everything.
Take a look at this.
I'm making you nervous.
Smile.
- I'll leave you to take your sip. - I've taken my sip.
Come here then.
Fans of this show have just been incredible.
I've loved just reading all of the messages.
I think she absolutely nailed it.
Now, as you can see, we are missing someone really important tonight,
our football legend, Georgia, who does have a valid excuse.
She's playing in a cup final match this evening.
But when it came to girls in Italy,
Georgia was not about playing the field.
From the moment she locked eyes with Cara,
it was a case of, "Nice to meet you. when are we moving in?"
It was perfect.
Your eyes are outrageous.
Cara and Georgia, that's basically the perfect lesbian couple.
I feel like you guys haven't taken your hands off each other since the
first kiss.
- I'm happy for both of you. - Yeah. - You did look lovely together.
Thanks, mom.
Girls, if you're ready to commit, then seal it with a kiss, now.
Me and Cara has definitely like surpassed any expectations I think I
had coming in here.
But then again, I think my expectations were like pretty low.
I kissed a girl and I really, really liked it.
- Cara, welcome to the reunion. - Oh, hot seat.
We need to know. What's the update?
I literally wish I could be like, yep, we're married,
but it's just, I think it was just not gonna work out because our
communication was shit.
We didn't establish the relationship fully, so.
What's happening? It is happening, it's not happening.
- No, we're just friends. - I mean, you two were inseparable.
It wouldn't be right unless we caught up with the main girl herself.
So Georgia has recorded a little message.
Hi, everyone. Sorry I can't be there tonight.
Absolutely gutted about it, but I've got football
and as we famously know, football comes first.
I had the best experience on the show
and honestly, the reaction has been incredible.
I'm sure you've heard the update from Cara.
Sadly, things didn't work out between us,
but thankfully we're still friends.
Girls, you're gonna have the best night.
I know you are. You're gonna be giddy as hell.
So Dannii, look out for yourself cause those girls can be wild.
Bye everyone.
Georgia, so good to see her.
We miss you so much, but let's give it up for Cara and Georgia.
In Italy, Fiorenza and Amy were great friends,
but there was always the question if it could be more than that.
Fiorenza was searching for her black cat,
but had this feline been in front of her all along?
And just when she was seeing sense,
in walked Hannah and things for Amy got really complicated.
Do you think there's room in here for two more?
I want to leave here with a girlfriend, not alone
and I will get what I want because look at me.
Hannah is stunning, like my type to a T.
Amy is fit as [mouthing fuck].
When the bottle landed on me,
I thought this is the perfect time to welcome Hannah to the masseria.
Me and Amy have been waiting to kiss.
Me and Amy should have kissed sooner because that was well overdue.
Which lovely lady would you like to take behind closed doors?
- Amy. - Can I go for round two with Hannah?
Take me, Amy.
Poor me thought that like, Amy would choose me.
If you think it's what you want,
like, you've got to make moves and get it.
You'll regret not doing it.
I just wanted to chat to you,
about where your heads be sat with people and that?
Obviously would be lying if I said the door was closed.
My door's open, anytime.
Anytime I have a conversation with Fiorenza, I'm like, just
remember, like, how much of a spark we kind of have and how much
emotionally we get each other.
- Do you want to kiss? - You always want to kiss.
But the connection I have with Hannah is just too strong to ignore.
My head's a mess.
Amy, do you want to kiss one of these girls?
On one hand, I have Fi,
who's been with me through my journey from the start.
We have this undeniable, you know, emotional connection.
And then on the other hand, I have Hannah.
We have this amazing, organic, undeniable chemistry.
My heart's just so heavy.
Amy, reveal the name of the girl you want to kiss now.
Hannah.
Please welcome Hannah, Amy, and Fiorenza.
Amy, in the middle of it again. - I know.
- Stuck between two Scots.
- Oh, my goodness. - Two Scots.
So, there were a lot of connections for you, Amy.
I did have to have a notepad.
There were a lot of notes and they kept going and going.
So, what was it for the two of you,
I'll start with Amy and Fiorenza, that took it out of that friendship zone?
I think it was just the closeness and like,
we're so similar, like we're both so goofy and like.
Yeah, and I think as time went on, it was like, it was too early
days to like, want to dive into like, the romantic side because
we were just such good friends.
And then obviously as time went on, it was like a bit more flirting.
And then I think,
for me it was actually when like, seeing Amy and Hannah together.
I think that was almost my point where I was like,
I need to like, get in there.
Now Amy, tell us how you felt when Hannah walked in.
I like, was gobsmacked.
Obviously, I was dressed as Jennifer Coolidge.
Yes!
So, you know, my first thought was,
shit, like, I'm, like, drowned in a wig, glasses, socks!
You wanted to rip it off.
I was like, babe, I'm hot.
Once we got rid of the Jennifer Coolidge costume,
there was obviously, shed that layer, there was obviously
that attraction there.
Yeah.
I mean, when she was shutting herself down that runway, I was like
Jesus, two femmes.
I was like, okay. When you miss one bus, two comes.
Fiorenza.
I realize that everything happens for a reason and I'm settled with
the fact that we're just friends.
I'm happy that it worked out that way,
that we just ended it as friends, you know?
It's the perfect,
almost love story and I think that's beautiful in the way that it is.
And I'm just really happy.
When you say love story, you're talking about a friendship, right?
As an almost love story.
As in like, we now have this friendship but it could have been
something, do you know what I mean?
- We're platonic soulmates. - Yeah, we're platonic soulmates.
So you can be yourselves with each other.
- Yeah, exactly. - Just be flirty and fabulous.
- Exactly. - Not too flirty though.
- As friends. - Yeah, I'm down.
Oh goodness!
All right, Fiorenza. Where are you up to now?
Are you dating? Are you single?
What's happening? - Yeah, I'm in a relationship now.
- You are? - Yeah.
I've been going out with her for about six months now.
- Yeah, how's it going? - It's going really well.
- You're so happy. - Yeah, I'm really happy, yeah.
Well, please say hi to your girlfriend for me.
- I will do. - And I wish you all the best.
- Thank you so much. - Let's thank Fiorenza.
Amy and Hannah became an official couple and these lovebirds were well
and truly smitten.
But soon cracks started to form for the new couple as Hannah got spooked
by the ghost of Fiorenza.
Feeling really good about Hannah like she just makes me giddy.
I can't stop kissing the girl.
Is your attraction to your partner 100% genuine?
Yeah. Yeah of course it is. Why wouldn't it be?
What one word would you use to describe your partner and why?
Different.
Oh. I was like not sure how to take it.
Do you feel you have a strong emotional connection
with your partner?
- Yeah. - No.
It's a bit awkward.
Has your partner always made you feel secure?
No.
Fiorenza situation, didn't really make me secure.
Amy, do you trust Hannah completely?
I wouldn't say completely, no.
- Amy and Hannah. - Yikes.
- Yeah. - That was a train wreck.
- Do you regret picking me over Fi? - No, I don't.
- I fully don't. - I don't know if I believe you or not.
But we know where we stand with each other.
And, like, I still am really attracted to you.
Well, I hope so.
I think she should have picked Fiorenza.
I'm just overthinking and scared that she's not going to turn.
I feel like I've definitely had a journey in here.
But in the end, I ended up with Hannah, and it just was right.
There is a part of me that's worried that she isn't going to turn for me.
I took a leap by choosing Hannah over Fi, and it's definitely paid off.
If you're ready to commit, then seal it with a kiss.
Now.
I think you're amazing, Amy.
There is a physical connection there, but I just don't think that
emotional connection is 100% there.
I'm gutted, I can't lie. I'm such a, like, a lover.
And, like, that is truly the reason why I came in here.
It's just... I 'm just sad it hasn't ended that way.
Hannah I'll start with you.
Getting to know Amy, what was it about her personality?
I did make a comment and I said different and I'm going to take the
time now to explain what different is.
Yeah.
Absolutely the best person, I've never met anyone
with a personality like yours.
You're so kind, you're so lovely, like you're funny,
so funny. Different in a great way in a good way.
What was going through your head at the final kiss off?
My head was a mess. A complete mess. I had no idea like was Amy gonna turn
was Amy not gonna turn obviously from like conversations we had and
the chemistry test I was just a bit thrown off,
so I didn't actually, maybe the communication wasn't there.
How did you feel Amy?
I genuinely thought, I was stood there and I was like, oh like
she's doing a bit I was like she's like longing it out,
she's teasing me and then it just
kept going and going and going and I thought oh like I've just been
rejected again, but no hard feelings at the end of the day.
I think everything happens for a reason and me and Hannah were meant
to be and it does kind of upset me when you say you didn't turn because
you thought I wasn't gonna turn.
Like, at the end of the day,
I didn't turn off of the thought of what you were gonna do.
It was purely based off of my feelings.
But I do see,
like, I do get where you're coming from in terms of the
chemistry test and everything.
Do you think, Hannah, sometimes people think you're
a lot stronger than you are?
Yeah, I mean,
I come across very confident and like, woo, but deep down I'm like,
it's just the show.
It's funny because when she first came into the masseria, I was
like, oh my god, this bitch,
she's got nerves of steel, she was giving nothing away, she was playing
mysterious, but she puts this front on.
Now Priya, do you stand by what you said at the time?
My opinion has changed, I do love Hannah.
I think it was just,
the way she came across, she came in four guns blazing.
Yeah!
And I was like, we just got off on the wrong foot.
- Yeah. - That was the situation, but yeah.
- And you have my back. Protective. - Yeah.
Hannah wasn't the only girl making tough decisions at the final kiss-off.
Throughout their time in the Masseria, Eva and Meg were going
from strength to strength,
but when Meg arrived at the L Word, Eva worried if she could ever meet
her there.
I'm actually quite happy with how things are going.
- So am I. - I wouldn't want it to change.
- And I know... - Yeah, I'm just for you.
Yeah.
Meg makes me feel really, really, really good
about myself and Meg makes me feel really, really confident.
Girls, reveal your decision.
Now.
I am so grateful and so happy to be able to grow my connection with Eva.
Obviously we're like this, but when we leave here,
it can't keep going like that.
It kind of has to go a little bit slower.
I know exactly what you mean.
Meg, are you falling in love with Eva?
Yes.
Eva, are you falling in love with Meg?
No.
- I could've said no. - Yeah.
But I didn't wanna lie. It's like you're getting them,
that you're starting to get them feelings.
I am genuinely so scared of being committed to anyone.
We are moving at two different paces, almost.
I have this thing in the back of my head, being like,
I don't want to lead her on, because she is an amazing person.
She cares a lot about me and I care a lot about her.
Girls, if you're ready to commit, then seal it with a kiss, now.
I was so just shocked. She just upset me.
'Cause, you know, you just wanna care for someone so much,
like you've got so much love to give.
You are so loved. You're so beautiful.
You will find the right person.
I guess it means my match is still out there,
somewhere waiting for me. So, fingers crossed I find them.
- You're looking great. - So are you.
Thank you. Eva, when you came in,
woo, what an entrance.
and I see you here in a gorgeous dress tonight.
Yeah, I just thought I'd switch it up a bit.
I think I was feeling very, like, masculine whenever this was filmed,
and now I just feel a little bit more confident in myself and, like, my
femininity, because I'm not going for the straight girls anymore.
So now I am...
So you learned a lot in the masseria about yourself.
Yeah, yeah, understatement, understatement.
Meg, I think you had a lot to do with that, right?
I think you opened your heart and you had a lot to do with opening other
people's hearts, too.
I mean, I'm a lover girl. What can I say?
Eva,
is there anything that Meg did particularly that really helped you
open up to yourself?
I feel like I've reached my final form now of being fully confident in
my sexuality, femininity, masculinity.
Meg did genuinely just really help me out in a way I didn't know I needed.
We had that friendship there to start off with.
It was very much a solid ground where you could speak to someone.
Just, you could speak to someone about anything.
That's what we started off on, and then it grew from there.
Now, Eva, do you think,
looking back now, it was the right thing to do, not to turn?
Looking back now, I would still stand by my choice,
because I feel like I wouldn't want to string Meg along
she's an amazing person, and I just want the best for her.
- It was a tough moment. - It was.
It was hard watching it as well.
It's so difficult to get that right balance and be that perfect person
for someone.
It just never works out. - Guess what?
It's because they're not the right person.
Never dim your light!
What's the update for you? Are you dating?
I am seeing someone, yes.
You know, there's nothing I love better than seeing your face when
you are happy.
You give everything, your eyes, everything.
It is beautiful. Tell me about her.
Funnily enough, Dannii, you might actually know her.
What do you mean I know her? Meg, who is it?
Lailah?
I think we're going to have to do a sofa switch and say goodbye to
Hannah, Amy and Eva.
Thank you very much.
Lailah, thank God you've got your running shoes on.
Get here now!
Okay. Girls, it's so good to see you so happy.
Meg, you famously said, "I'm always that girl."
Lailah was like, "There's no one here for me.
I'm leaving", and look at you two now.
I'm not that girl anymore.
So Lailah, what happened?
So it was a few days after the rest of the girls flew back from Italy,
and Meg dropped me a message. We got to talking,
and I had a bit of a crush on Meg in there, like I'll be honest, that
developed a few days in
and I didn't know that she was kinda crushing on me
a bit too, like, so. - Slid in the DMs.
Yeah. Some flirty DMs.
So it went from there.
We met up like a week and a half later.
Where did you meet up?
I'd just flown back,
and I landed in Manchester, and we went for a cheeky Nando's.
I love a cheeky Nando's.
What future are we looking at? How's this gonna play out?
We're taking each day as it comes, seeing what falls in our way.
Basically, Meg's moving in next week.
No, I'm joking, I'm joking, she's not.
But you've met family, how's the whole family thing going?
Yeah, my family love Meg. Like, all my friends are obsessed with her.
She's amazing. Like, falling in love with Meg has been, like,
one of the most beautiful experiences of my life, like, genuinely.
Like, she's, like, no, seriously.
I think, like, the whole country fell in love with her, but, like,
being able to do it on a personal level, she has the biggest heart.
And, like, the fact that she,
the fact that she gets to love me with that, I, yeah.
She's that girl. She's that girl, so.
Well,
I heard the L word a few times just dropped in, so I'm just gonna go and
buy a hat for whatever my, you know.
I think you might have to.
So happy for you.
Please, another round of applause for Lailah and Meg.
Before we started filming, I was told the girls would move fast,
but I wasn't prepared for just how fast that rollercoaster would be.
I wish I could talk you through it, but honestly, I can't
talk that quickly. So luckily, I know someone who can.
Taking us through the wonderful web of connections is the amazing
Charlie Malo.
We all know lesbians move fast.
I was engaged to someone in the military in the US and I never met
them and it was after two months.
That's so gay!
But in the masseria,
the path to love was more like a dating superhighway.
Three, two, one, lesbianst!
I'll try and explain,
but I'm warning you, it gets messy, so here we go.
Once the snogging started, it didn't take long for the girls to scramble.
Gay panic.
Fiorenza and Meg weren't feeling things with their matches.
Oh, she's lovely, but there's not that initial butterflies there.
But up on that terrace, they were soon feeling each other.
- I do fancy you. - Yeah, feelings mutual.
Oh, God.
Amy matched with new girl Eva.
Our vibes are off the scale.
Then quickly realised she might fancy her best mate, Fiorenza.
Do you have a wee crush on me?
I have a wee crush on Fiorenza.
But that was OK,
because Eva had made moves for Meg, who had just been dubbed by
Fiorenza.
I do have a wee crush on Fiorenza.
That's fine because I've got a bit of a crush on Eva.
It's giving wife swap, it's giving sister wives.
Keeping up? Well, if that wasn't enough...
- Girls! - New girls arrived!
- Chop and change, chop and change. - I think you need to move fast.
And you don't need to tell these girls that twice.
Fi snogged Beth,
then Amy snogged Lailah, and then they all basically snogged each other.
The path to love was more confusing than previous
lineups of the Sugar Baes.
You've got Fi, you've got Meg, you've got Amy,
you've got flipping Beth, oh my God, I cannot keep up.
There you go. In summary, total chaos.
I'm bloody exhausted after that.
Thank you, Charlie.
Now joining me are four girls who came,
slayed and said, "Ciao, ciao" to love.
They turned heads, they kept us giggling,
and they don't chase, they...
Attract!
Okay, please welcome Demi, Em, Beth, and Thea.
Demi, our baby gay, how you doing?
I'm good, how are you?
Good, I mean you came in, you met this wonderful group of girls.
How's life been since you left the Masseria?
I think the Masseria gave me so much confidence.
I feel like it's just been on the up. - What do you think you learnt?
I learned a lot about myself.
I learned to be more centered and also more confident in my sexuality.
I learned it's okay for me to take up space within the queer community,
even if I hadn't dated a woman.
- Woo! - Yeah, woo!
You didn't have long to make connections inside the masseria.
Has anyone caught your eye since? - I have a partner now.
- Yeah? - They're amazing.
Yeah, they're called Jill. - Oh!
They're very cool. They're Fiorenza's best friend.
- Yeah. - Woo!
Hang on,
Fiorenza and Demi, you had your first kiss together, and now Fiorenza,
you're playing Cupid?
Yeah.
Em, you came in for adventure. You stood under the adventure pillar.
What's happened since the masseria? - I still have had my adventure.
Tell us what it's been.
Yeah, I took the van over to Europe, so I've been traveling.
- Met any great ladies along the way? - Europe has a lot of nice girls.
I'm very glad I've been single for the trip.
It's been good so far, but no one's stuck just yet.
- Okay, now Beth. - Yes.
Yes, there's that laugh, I've missed that laugh!
I've toned it down a bit.
How's it been since you left the show?
Yeah, great, I've been living my best life.
And we all get updates as well.
- Yeah. - Beth tells us everything. -
- Those voice notes will go down in history. - We love voice notes.
I'm probably a bit too open,
but I do share with the girls all my dating drama.
- Every detail. - Beth has been living her best lesbian life.
So beware,
whoever you date is gonna be right across this chat group.
- Thea. - Hi.
- What have you been up to? - Lots of gigs.
- The girls have come to see you? - The girls have been...
My time on the show was so short.
I felt really upset that I didn't get to spend so much time with them.
I'm so grateful that they're so supportive and we can still be
friends afterwards as well.
I'm so grateful for that. And they love my music, right, guys?
- Yeah. - I listen to your music.
I love your music. - Aw, thank you.
Yeah, it's fantastic.
It's great to see you gorgeous girls enjoying life and to see you back
here all together.
So, Demi, Em, Beth, Thea, thank you so much.
In the masseria, it wasn't all fun and games and snogging.
Across the summer,
we saw the girls opening up to each other for incredible conversations
about queer history, identity, pride, and sexuality.
And we all loved hearing the girls'
stories and the conversations that they sparked.
Wearing like feminine clothes for me,
like I've never just felt, never felt comfortable.
I feel like I'm trying to fit into something that I'm not.
I actually had long hair.
I think the only reason I cut it was to look more gay.
I was in a heterosexual relationship for four and a half years.
- What? - Really?
With a guy for four years.
I was a completely different person in that relationship
and now I've been able to become, like, my true self.
- Aww. - Since then.
I feel like I'm tearing up.
I was Emily before and now I'm Em.
What's, like, annoying as well is when you do come out as bi,
sometimes people use it as a way to then come out as lesbian.
But it's frustrating when
it's not a stepping stone, like, this is where I'm stopping now.
Did you just, like, struggle with feeling, like,
not gay enough for lesbians, or else being, like, a kink for men?
- Yeah. - I always feel the urge to be like,
It's not a kink and I'm not having a threesome.
Yeah, just get out of there.
Just letting you know that this is not what's happening.
How do you guys feel about the word lesbian?
I don't mind it really and truly, I use it.
I don't think it's like, I don't know why people shy away from that word.
I feel like I've always identified as gay as opposed
to saying I'm a lesbian.
Thinking back to like school,
it's like if there was a boy that was interesting and you weren't about,
it's like, oh, you're a fucking lesbian.
It's like, no, I just don't fucking like you,you're a cock.
Do you guys know why the 'L' is the first letter in the LGBTQ+?
No, I don't.
You know, like, back with the, like,
HIV and the AIDS epidemic, nobody wanted to really help them.
It was lesbians that were helping them and, like, nursing them.
- Cause it was like... - Stop, that's giving me goosebumps.
I'm going to cry!
It still bothers me when it shouldn't, because it's such a good word.
Do you know what, after that story,
I can't wait to go out and just tell people I'm a fucking lesbian.
I'm a lesbian!
I need to just say to my younger self, you are a lesbian.
Why would you not want to be a lesbian?
Lesbians on TV!
Wow.
These brave conversations had such an impact.
How was the response?
- Incredible. - It was beautiful.
I think it's like really beautiful that we were quite like a diverse
cast and like personalities, like different intersectionalities as well
and I think like younger queer lesbians can watch this and see
themselves in like each and every one of us
and we just didn't have that like growing up at all.
So Cara, there was an amazing moment where we saw you speaking
with other openly bi women.
Is it really important to have that safe space to talk?
Obviously I don't be around people all the time in the queer community.
So for me,
being around all these girls and actually talking to people who I can
identify with and relate to is so, it's been so much, it's been so
important for me coming out of the show.
Like my ma even says when I come out, she's like,
you're literally so much more yourself and I just appreciate all you guys.
Under the Italian sky, one couple shone brightly from the start.
Priya, a tourist from South Wales, looking for her protector,
and Naee, a Virgo from South London, looking for her princess.
They stayed together at every kiss-off, were voted the strongest
couple in the Masseria,
said the L word at next steps, and sealed it with a
kiss at the final kiss-off.
But before we find out what's written in the stars, let's recap.
Okay, thank God, she's my type.
She's fun, she's a bit of me, she's a bit of me.
So, how do you feel about this situation?
To be honest, I'm still trying to see what you're saying.
I'm still trying to figure you out.
No, I'm still very interested in you.
Reveal your decision now.
- How are you feeling? - Relieved.
I'm looking forward to how we grow in ourselves and our relationship too.
I wanna fuck her so bad.
Oh God, just get us a bedroom, please.
I am very smitten.
I don't know, I feel like such a teenager when I say that.
Even outside of the masseria,
I'm gonna feel the same way about you.
- Me too, I can't see it changing. - Yeah.
Do you think we'll be official at some point?
I want you to be my girlfriend, that would be so real.
Are you falling in love with your partner?
- I would say yes. - Priya?
- Yes.
I've never heard you speak about anyone like this before and you
haven't stopped smiling.
Thanks, mum.
If you're ready to commit, seal it with a kiss now.
My feelings for Naeeare very strong.
Going down the long-term route.
Girls, the strongest couple.
Couldn't keep your hands off each other.
What happened when you got back to the UK?
She went back home and got married to her fiance.
- I'm so sorry, bro, I'm so sorry. - Are you making that up?
I'm being serious.
Her fiance that she mentioned in episode one,
she went and got married to her after the show.
I was gonna be nice about it but it's not looking that way anymore.
- If you wanna be acting like that. - It is what it is, bro.
- What happened? -Okay, so, the story...
Naee has her vision,
but I did mention in the show that I was engaged to someone in America.
I just want to be clear, before you started the show,
you had completely called off the engagement and broken up with her.
Yeah, we were like done.
You'd broken up with the fiance, had you stayed friends with her.
So you were friends with her, you spoke to her.
And then just before the show, we got back in touch.
I let her know about the show,
went on the show, I was falling in love with Naee, came out of the show,
stayed at hers for a week, and then she was calling me and she was very
upset about the situation and I sat on it.
So I went back home, I sat on it, debated on it.
I think the fact that I'd known her for a long time and I think it was
just the time, but Naee is an amazing person, although what she did just
now was questionable.
It's the truth. To be honest, it's my truth, bro.
Naee,
is it difficult because I remember at the beginning you said it's normal
for you to have a few girls going at the same time.
Yeah, the whole problem is,
like we both said after the show we were speaking to
people, that's fair enough,
but I found out the whole truth from someone in the cast.
Like she didn't have an actual conversation with
me about what was going on.
I called you.
Did't have an actual conversation. Don't sit here and lie.
I'm not even. I called you saying...
Who did I find out the truth from, bro?
I already knew you were speaking to someone else, first of all.
- I called you. - I already knew, bro.
This is why you was blocked before. Do you understand?
Oh my God, okay.
I had no idea who she was speaking to.
I just knew that her energy shifted when she got back home.
So you thought she's gone back to Wales and then
you hear she's in America.
Basically.
And she's got back together with her ex.
- Her fiance, yeah. - How did that make you feel?
I was just like, "Damn, that's quite shit, to be honest."
So you were ready to be with Priya?
I was ready up until her energy shifted
and then I was like, "Okay, something's clearly going on.
Something's wrong here."
But I just didn't know the truth, the whole truth.
Priya, you reconnected with your ex.
Tell me about what happened in the States.
We got married.
So we just, yeah, that was it, really.
You flew there and you just got married that trip?
Two weeks into being in America, yeah.
It was a difficult decision
cause I didn't want to hurt her and I truly am very sorry for hurting you
and that was not my intention whatsoever.
I just went with my heart and yeah. - What does she do?
She's in the military.
She's literally the best person for me so, I'm very happy.
I'm happy for you.
- Thank you. - Yeah.
It is what it is at the end of the day.
Like, at least you found love, you know?
I'm happy for you, bro. - Naee, where do things go from here
cause I don't wanna see you shut down and not open up to love.
I'm not shut down to love. I'm speaking to someone.
- You are? - Yeah.
Oh, good.
- Bet you're happy. - We're cool, yeah.
Well, I wish you both a fantastic life in your next steps.
Let's give it up for Priya and Naee.
Finally, for a Masseria chapter which ended all too soon,
with Abbie and Lisha, there were sparks, cuddles, and a
few red flags to navigate.
The path to love is never straight,
especially when communication starts to break down,
but these two were ready to keep working on their connection.
That's until a dramatic turn of events changed everything.
I was like, wow.
- Are you happy? - Yeah, I'm happy.
She is unreal.
Mama's so happy.
When I see Meg and Lish flirt in front of me, like,
it does make me feel like shit.
- I'm not flirting with her. - You're all over her.
If I wanted to explore things with Meg, I think I would
have done it by now.
Okay.
Abbie, do you think Lisha's good at communicating?
- Yeah. - That was a bit of a gap, babe.
Yeah.
You're making it out to the group like I'm shit at communicating,
and that I don't listen to you.
How have things been going?
It's been bumpy,
but I feel like it's just made me realize how much I really do like her.
Same.
No, I feel like we're really working on our communication.
Priya and Naee.
You will now have to decide which couple are together, but their
hearts aren't truly in it.
The couple you choose will leave the masseria now.
Lisha and Abbie.
Our journey in here has not been smooth but we've dealt with our
issues and just grown closer.
You don't speak up about issues and you're just coasting and you're
hiding behind something.
Well, it's eight months on since then.
Break the news. Are you still together?
Yeah.
Wow, this is crazy.
So you were voted off as the couple least likely to stay together.
What happened when you left Italy?
You came straight back to mine, didn't you?
- Yeah. - To Brighton.
Met my friends, my family.
We had so much fun, and then I came up to yours.
- Yeah, met the family. - That's fantastic.
We're still like very different people, but we've got so much...
We're still learning about each other.
- Yeah. - Every single day.
We're still growing, and yeah, our hearts are definitely in it, so.
- Yeah, definitely. - And so what are next steps?
What are the... - Getting married.
Get married, children.
No, I think the distance is hard, so I think in the near future...
- Moving out. - We definitely wanna move closer.
Well, I love to see love, so I'm so happy for you.
Please give it up for Abby and Lisha.
Our time's almost up, what an amazing reunion.
Although, please, no more U-turns, please.
I couldn't cope.
So if you could just hold off from hooking up or breaking up in the
next minute, that would be fantastic.
Girls, you have been amazing.
You have smashed stereotypes.
You've broken hearts and you've had us falling down in laughter.
Stay gorgeous and you know what I'm gonna say now, love
who you want to love and thank you at home
for watching, your support has been amazing.
You've wrapped your arms around these brave and beautiful girls, and it's
been wonderful to see.
All that's left for us to do is party,
and we can't have a party without a dress-up.
So tonight, the girls have raided Amy's wardrobe,
which contains a lot of boots.
So love and kisses, and let's party!
