Love Island UK star Harry gets warning after opening up to Shakira despite committing to Helen

Love Island UK's July 24 episode saw more drama happen as Harry Cooksley had a deep talk with his ex, Shakira Khan. Even though he recently made things exclusive with Helena Ford, Harry spoke to Shakira about their past feelings. His actions led to a warning from fellow Islander Dejon, who told him to think carefully about what he was doing.

Earlier in the episode, Shakira ended her couple with Conor Phillips, telling him she still had strong feelings for Harry. This led to the emotional talk between her and Harry. He said,

“I can read between the lines a little bit, but I don't really know exactly what you're thinking.”

Shakira replied,

“I still felt very strongly towards you… and you and Helena being exclusive may have resurfaced things.”

Harry told her that it may look like he moved on fast, but that didn’t mean his past feelings were fake. This episode of Love Island UK also teased the return of the Grafties challenge, which often brings back past moments. With emotions already running high, Harry’s confession could bring more problems in the villa as things move toward the end of the season.

Even though Harry had just gone exclusive with Helena, he decided to talk to Shakira in Love Island UK. He asked if checking in on her made things worse. Shakira was honest and said, “It doesn’t help in the slightest.” She added that she still had strong feelings for him and hadn’t really dealt with everything that happened between them.

Shakira also said Harry becoming exclusive with Helena might have brought those old feelings back.

“I just don’t think that I really dealt with the situation how I should have,” she admitted.

Harry then shared that even though it looked like he moved on quickly, it wasn’t that simple. He said, “You’ll probably disagree, but I felt it,” and explained that he hadn’t fully processed the situation either.

This talk came not long after Shakira ended things with Conor, which made the timing even harder for the group to understand. It became clear that things between Harry and Shakira were not fully over, even though he had chosen Helena.

The rest of the Islanders may now start to question where Harry truly stands, and whether his actions could lead to more confusion or hurt feelings in the coming days.

Dejon tells Harry to think clearly after emotional moment in Love Island UK

After Harry’s long conversation with Shakira, Dejon Noel-Williams felt he had to say something. He told Harry to take a step back and think about what he really wanted. Since Harry had just made things official with Helena, Dejon warned that going back and forth could cause more harm in Love Island UK.

Dejon’s words were clear, he told Harry to “collect his thoughts” and stop giving mixed signals. In a villa where relationships can change quickly, Dejon wanted Harry to avoid making things worse for himself and the others.

Meanwhile, Helena didn’t know the full story about Harry’s talk with Shakira. At the same time, Shakira was left feeling confused and emotional again after hearing Harry say his feelings hadn’t gone away completely.

This warning from Dejon came at a time when many Islanders were already feeling pressure. With the Grafties challenge coming soon, more past actions and feelings could be brought up again.

This episode of Love Island UK showed how one conversation could affect more than just two people. By opening up to Shakira, Harry may have started a new wave of trouble, even though he said he wanted to move forward with Helena. The rest of the villa will now be watching closely.

Stay tuned for more updates.
