Love Island Grafties are back, promising to serve up more drama than ever, with Islanders Dejon Noel-Williams, Meg Moore, Shakira Khan, and Harry Cooksley in for an uncomfortable evening for sure – but how do you have your say?
The Grafties is a public-voted award ceremony that takes place in the villa where Islanders are awarded a title and trophy based on certain categories.

A bit like the famous movie night, clips are shown on the big screen as the red carpet is laid out, to bring up old drama that most Islanders would have never seen before.
One of the most iconic moments was, of course, Messy Mitch accepting his award for ‘Mad Moves’, which exploded the villa in one of the show’s most dramatic moments – so who will be the Messy Mitch of Season 12?
