I’m a body language expert – Love Island’s Casa Amor reveals new love triangle, feud & heartbreak
CELEBRITY body language expert Judi James has revealed how things will play out following the explosive Casa Amor recoupling.
Judi told The Sun that a new love triangle and fresh heartbreak is on the horizon.
The popular expert shared her professional opinion with us on what to expect over the the next few weeks.
Jess was in full Cobra mode during the Casa re-coupling, while Matilda picked off the Casa
Bombshells like a vixen protecting the bins from roving predators.
Can exhausted-looking Joey muster the energy for one last love triangle?
Joey looked like a man who had mislaid next week’s script as he started trying to re-boot his love triangle with Grace and Jessy via some facial gurning as Grace returned with her own man-mountain,
while Ayo used word salads to try to pose as the victim rather than the love rat after cheating on Mimii.
Uma is now on a slow-burn pain path with Will as she inevitably hears all about his Casa exploits and this desperately needs to be the year when Love Island changes the rules to allow Uma and Mimii to win as a friendship couple.
Jess and Matilda at war
Jess is now using her ‘Zombie eye’ gesture more often, which is where she rolls her eyes while keeping the lids open so only the whites show.
It’s her warrior ‘tell’ and now that she’s returned like Queen Bee with a ‘trophy’ guy in Hugo, who Matilda had already made a successful move on in Casa, she’s likely to be less bee and more cobra as she picks her enemies off one by one.
Miss-naming Trey was just her first step, she’s calling out ‘moves’ like she’s playing chess and Matilda might be one rival queen too many for her.
Love triangle for Grace
Grace is looking like a player too.
Blade does not look like her ideal romantic match but he was clearly the Alpha blow to Joey’s solar plexus that she had been searching for and she got her reward in Joey’s prolonged facial gurning that suggested jealousy and anger.
As Grace sat down using preening gestures before throwing him one long, hard glance, Joey’s four telling gestures suggested he was hurt.
He pursed his lips with a lower lip jut like a sulk, then he sucked his lips inward in a gesture of regret.
He avoided eye contact with Grace and then lastly he closed his eyes in a cut-off as though trying to shut out what he was seeing.
Wil has no regrets
Watching Uma’s explosion of squealing delight at seeing Will sitting solo only made the way her happy expression melted like wax on hearing the bed-kissing route he’d taken to be there even sadder to watch.
Will had gone through the punnet to choose the best strawberry, which he saw as a virtue but Uma did not.
Her eyebrow flash as she gave him the coldest, most theatrical cheek kiss showed inner distain.
Sitting with him her bristling body, hair-preen and facial wincing
showed she’s still processing any inner anger.
Will performed a double pit-bare when they spoke afterwards, which shows arrogance. He also rubbed his face in a signal of dismissal,
suggesting it’s her call now but he’s not feeling guilt.
More heartbreak for Mimmi
Mimii’s body language was a masterclass in suppression and elegance, which only made it more painful to watch.
She smiled and she even complimented Maya, although the way her
legs were crossed at the ankle as she stood alone suggested inner vulnerability and a desire to self-protect, despite her rueful projectile laughs.
When she sat for her chat with Ayo she even crossed her legs towards him and used eye contact to suggest amicability while he delivered his worst word salad so far, even trying to make it look as though it was her dumping him.
Ayo is all facial expressions of mock bewilderment and confusion now and he’s dropping his head to imply he is the victim, getting reassurance rituals from the others as though he’s the
one in pain.
His very performed displays of mock victimhood contrast with the way Mimii took herself outside the villa entrance to take time to reflect.
He seems arrogant enough to try to encourage Mimii to fight for him.
Bombshell Jess might have looked sweet to Ayo in Casa but if he’s going to keep his own ego and ‘good guy’ self-perception intact he’s going to have to cast her as the evil temptress who lured him away from his true love, leaving her as vulnerable as Mimii.
