THIS is officially Love Island’s sauciest season for nearly a decade, with crew forced to take action on behalf of frisky cast.
It comes after Islanders coined a new term for one sex act based on footballer Andy Carroll.
For the first time since 2016, production took the step of ordering in more condoms to ensure there was protection available.
They took action after it became apparent this year’s cast were keen to get hands on.
A source said: “It’s been a long while since there’s been as much action in the bedroom as this year.
“When Harry and Helena went into the Hideaway just 56 hours into the series it set the ball rolling and it’s been a particularly feral year.
“There’s been duvet tents most nights.
“Obviously duty of care is paramount so producers stocked up on condoms to ensure there were enough for the run.”
Viewers were shocked when the ITV2 dating show aired scenes of randy Harrison Solomon asking Harry Cookseley, who slept in the next bed, to pass him a condom in the middle of the night.
Harrison slept with Lauren Wood twice before she lost her place in a vote and he followed her out.
But others have gone all the way too, including girlfriend and boyfriend Meg Moore and Dejon Williams.
As part of their duty of care process, ITV are careful what they air and usually wait for the Islanders to consent to sex scenes being screened.
The girls admitted to performing “Handy Carolls” on their boys, though, in cheeky new terminology.
But ex-Islander Mitch Taylor told the Sun he was put off going all the way in the villa during his 2023 series because of show procedure.
He said: “Even if you shuffled about it in bed a bit, you’d go to the beach hut the next day and production are going ‘did you wear a condom?’
“It’s like instant production c*ckblock for me, the next day production asking 21 questions.
“That killed it for me to be honest.”
Fans have always considered Love Island’s 2016 series its sauciest year, when Alex Bowen and now wife Olivia plus Zara Holland, Terry Walsh and Emma Jane Woodhams set the screen alight.
