Dumped Love Island star Blu takes one final swipe at Shea after butting heads over who would leave

DUMPED Love Island star Blu has taken one final swipe at Shea after butting heads over who would leave.

Blu was dumped from the villa in Friday night’s episode after on Thursday, he and Shea were left single and vulnerable when they were failed to get chosen by the girls to be in couples.

The girls made their decisions one by one, until only Shea and Blu remained.

Dejon then received a text which read: “Blue and Shea, you are now single.

“Between you both you should now decided who should stay and who should go.”

But both lads were determined to stay and refused to back down.

Blu confidently said: “I ain’t f****** leaving,” as Shea echoed: “I ain’t either.”

The Sun then revealed that the pair got into a war of words, with this seen in Friday night’s episode before the Islanders were tasked with deciding on who would be dumped from the Island.

Blu was chosen to pack his bags and leave, with him now breaking his silence on what he really thinks about the man who won over the Islanders and was picked to stay.

In his exit Q&A, Blu seemingly took one final swipe at Shea.

“We asked them [the Islanders] for their point of view as we were both really stubborn in that situation.

“We weren’t going to budge, so we had to get them to make the decision,” he explained.

Then, taking a subtle swipe at Shea, Blu said: “I felt like I had a stronger bond with everyone in there, obviously I’d been there a bit longer.

“I was constantly trying to make a connection and exploring everyone.

“I was making moves as quickly as I could, as opposed to Shea who was a bit more laid back,” he slammed.

Blu went on: “Everyone had their own thoughts.

The Sun revealed yesterday that Blu and Shea got into a rather tense war of words in the most savage dumping twist ever, before the scenes aired last night.

A villa source told The Sun: “Things get very heated between Blu and Shea after the savage twist that they have to decide between them who will go.

“Viewers will see it play out in tonight’s episode but it’s really tense.

“Neither of them wants to back down and while it doesn’t get physical, they get into a real war of words and some of the things they said to each other were brutal.

“Neither boy wanted to leave and it’s pretty explosive telly.

“Emotions were very high as they have both spent months trying to land their spot on the show, so neither one was going to back down easily.”

I turned my sports car into a £400,000 dream machine with budget parts for just £25,000 – no one can tell the difference

A PETROLHEAD struggling to buy the car of his dreams was forced to settle for the next best thing – and save a ton of money in the process.

Car enthusiast and YouTuber Chris Slix was desperate to own a top-tier McLaren 675LT, a supercar that costs around £400,000.

However, he couldn’t afford it and also lacked the strictly required purchase history with McLaren to even be considered for buying one.

But the resourceful petrolhead had another idea, after discovering that McLaren’s limited-edition models, including the 675LT and P1 hypercar, share many parts with their more affordable base models, such as the 650S.

This gave him the idea to transform a damaged, cut-price McLaren 650S Spider into a premium, customised version resembling one of its more high-end models.

After purchasing a heavily damaged 650S Spider, which had been crashed multiple times and used as a track experience car, he then sought out budget parts to help transform the motor into a more exclusive-looking version.

After finding that McLaren-branded parts would have cost more than a second-hand 675LT, with some individual components costing as much as £25,000, Chris turned to trusty budget vendor Temu.

From the site, he managed to buy a full dry-carbon fibre body kit and other affordable components – including a unique tangerine paint/

“If we start with one of McLaren’s cheapest cars, we can potentially turn it into something much more expensive and much rarer,” he told viewers.

Initially, he explored various different options, including second-hand parts, aftermarket kits and even AliExpress, but settled on Temu.

“I had four criteria when I was hunting for pieces – harder, better, faster, stronger; five, if you count ‘cheaper’,” Chris said.

“The parts from Temu ticked every single box.”

He added: “Buying these parts new from McLaren is going to cost more than a second-hand 675LT. It’s ridiculous.”

After an eight-week wait, the Temu kit arrived in a massive box – which Chris and his team unpacked.

Instantly impressed with the parts and their quality, which were made entirely of carbon fibre – making them both lightweight and strong – the gearheads were first forced to address the McLaren’s damaged brackets and mounting points, which were bent or poorly repaired from previous accidents.

This meant Chris was forced to purchase replacement brackets directly from McLaren, adding to the costs, but ensured proper alignment and fitment of the new body kit.

The build began with the front wings and bonnet, which proved tricky and time consuming as the team had to pain-stakingly refine the fitment to ensure the car looks as good as a factory-built model.

The rear bumper and diffuser were also replaced with the carbon fibre components from the kit, as well as the rear spoiler and side pods – matching the 675LT’s design.

Chris added that he didn’t aim to create an exact replica of the P1 or 675LT, but rather his own personalised version that incorporates various elements from other McLaren models – including an exposed carbon fibre bonnet similar to the P1’s design.

While still a work in progress, the car is coming along brilliantly – with only a handful of bits requiring fine-tuning, including the panel gaps and headlights.

He also hints at upgrading the car’s performance to match its aggressive new look.

To the average person or casual observer, the car’s beastly look – largely thanks to the full dry-carbon fibre body kit and tangerine paint – makes it incredibly difficult to tell that it isn’t a factory-built high-end McLaren.

Chris added: “Squint really, really hard and it looks like a bad boy.”

Criminals will be forced to pay back EVERY penny they steal, under new law proposed by Robert Jenrick

CRIMINALS will be forced to pay back every penny they steal under proposals being drawn up by Tory Robert Jenrick.

The move could let courts claw back many billions of pounds of ill-gotten gains which would be returned to victims or help tackle crime.

Under the proposal, fines on burglars and thieves will be hiked so they have to pay for the full amount of damage they inflict.

Rules which stop courts pursuing criminals for unpaid fines after six years would be torn up so a thief can always be made to pay up.

The shadow justice secretary is proposing the crackdown in an amendment to the Victims and Courts Bill, which is being debated in parliament next week.

Mr Jenrick said: “There’s never been a better time to be a criminal. That has to change: crime should never pay.

“Thieves and burglars must be fined the full cost of the damage they cause.

“If they can’t pay immediately, they should be made to pay it back over their whole lifetime.

“Our criminal justice system must put victims first and yobs last.”

Criminals owe a record £4.4billion in unpaid fines and court fees.

It is made up of over £1bn in fines and £3.4bn in legal costs and confiscation orders slapped on convicts.

This is enough cash to build 20,000 prison places.

Courts can impose fines on criminals as part of their sentence. The size of the fine depends on the severity of the crime and the offender’s ability to pay it.

But thieves and burglars routinely fail to pay up. And some dodge these fines by serving an extra day in prison – racking up a bigger bill for the taxpayer.

Labour have a giant majority in Parliament, so they would have to back the amendment for it to become law.

The product has a rating of 4.6 out of five stars based on 159 ratings and 89 reviews.

A review from December 2024 gave the product five stars, calling it good quality and a “must-have” purchase.

Another review called the product a complete set, writing, “This is a set we need to replace many of the items we use for the Troop campouts.”

“Buying all of the items separately would be prohibitive. This was a great deal that we will put to the test!” the review continued.

A third review called the kit a “very well-made product” for the price.

“The price was incredible compared to every other griddle set I researched,” wrote Kathy.

“I am definitely pleased with this set. It also had everything I wanted.”

However, the product also received about 16 reviews that were three stars or lower, with one person calling the kit “garbage.”

“Should’ve known the price was too good to be true!!!!” the one-star review read.

“Most of this product is made cheap flimsy metal that bends and cracks easily!!! Dont waste your time trying this out….if you do you will be severly disappointed!!! 

“Do yourself a favor and stop being cheap (like me) and spend the cash on a better product which will be double double the price of this garbage; the only difference is the new better product will last!!!”
