We spent a long, hot summer watching every move of our favourite islanders in this now iconic Mallorcan villa – but have you ever wondered what the Love Island What’s the stars’ mealtime routine like? It’s not unusual to see the likes of Ovie or Tommy preparing a snack in the outdoor kitchen, but apparently it’s not quite what it seems. All was revealed on Sunday night. After sun Show where some members of the show’s backstage team revealed some secrets.
Who prepares the islanders’ meals?
In one segment, Bella, the villa runner, revealed that she takes care of “the islanders’ every need and desire” – which, she admitted, usually means providing plenty of snacks! The big cupboard that the stars often rummage through? That’s the pantry, and that’s where she keeps everything ready for them – whenever they need it. Are we jealous?

“This is the back of the pantry, this is where we store everything the islanders ask for,” she said. “Islanders love snacks. Chips, cookies, chocolate – the girls always want chocolate – and they love coffee. So I’m always refilling the coffee.”
When asked about the participants’ main meals, she said: “All meals are prepared by a catering company. The guys eat really, really high amounts of protein – for example, they eat three or four chicken breasts per meal!”
Participants can choose snacks as they wish
Giving insight into the islanders’ habits, she added: “The biggest eater is definitely Tommy. He seems to eat mayonnaise with every meal. He goes through about half a bottle a day! Anton is always asking for mouth spray – he goes through a bottle every other day. The boys are also constantly losing boxer shorts, I don’t know where they put them!”
Apparently the most difficult area to clean is the girls’ changing room…
The post also revealed that there is a cleaning team in the villa – the girls’ dressing room is apparently always the worst, with cleaning coordinator Chris admitting: “Over the course of the show, there is so much hair that I could make a wig out of it!” Disgusting.
