Previously on I Kissed A Girl...

I would like to kiss myself.

Myself as well. Whoa!

..there was one very dramatic Kiss-Off...

We were not meant to lose five people tonight.

..Wish You Well threw the divas straight in the deep end

with a few home truths...

I don't think you'd be compatible with someone who was stubborn.

An absolute deal-breaker would be a long-distance relationship.

Bloody Nora.

..and the masseria strapped in for a roller-coaster of a night.

I don't know where to look. A little spicy.

But what goes up... Oh! ..must come down.

Gift these crystals to the couple who have the least sexual chemistry.

I think this one's mine and Kayleigh's.

I'm very much in my celibacy era.

Kayleigh is very much not.

And one crystal sent Blessing's head into a full-on tailspin.

The person who you think is the sexiest.

I'm going to give it to my babe.

I'm spiralling. She's never called me sexy.

Welcome to I Kissed A Girl.

This programme contains some strong language

THUNDER

# Sunshine on a rainy day

# Makes my soul, makes my soul... #

It's the penultimate day in the masseria

for our four remaining couples,

and I tell you what - there's not a dry eye left in the place.

It's wetter than an otter's pocket out there.

# Sunshine on a rainy day

# Makes my soul, makes my soul... #

It might be giving more duvet than dolce vita,

but nonetheless, this lot have a decision to make.

Good morning. Morning!

In tomorrow's final Kiss-Off, will they turn to a future together

or wave ciao to their Sapphic summer?

Although one couple's already gone massi-official.

How are you two feeling first morning in a relationship?

Yep. Oh, yeah!

Woken up feeling all perky.

I'm wifed off.

Yeah, it was lovely.

Last night, this lot were handing out crystals like prosecco at Pride.

I literally love this crystal so much.

With the crystal that Almayra gave to us,

I would have thought she was lying if she gave it to anyone else. Yeah.

It was the crystal for the couple that have

the least sexual chemistry.

The relationship towards sex definitely does make me question

how this would work for me in my life.

But we really do understand each other,

and the side that comes out of me from Almayra is, like,

really beautiful, and I do really... I really like that.

But it turns out, one crystal wasn't quite serving the sparkle

that Blessing had in mind.

Lindsey gave me that crystal last night, that she does find me

the sexiest in the masseria,

but she's never used that word to describe me, never given me

any compliments in that nature.

So, she's given me the crystal, but I haven't seen anything

to back it up.

MUSIC: Revolving Door by Tate McRae

Right, time to get the show on the road.

With Blessing's mood matching that big old cloud overhead,

Lindsey's got no idea that there's an emotional thunderstorm

brewing in the bedroom.

Are you going to make Blessing turn?

Oh, yeah! You're like, "Oh, yeah!"

I feel like me and Blessing have definitely come a long way,

and giving Blessing the crystal, just affirm the fact

that we are going towards a better direction.

Hey. I made you breakfast. Oh!

We are progressing in our relationship,

and things are looking good.

OK.

I really hope you've done those eggs sunny side up.

Oh, thank you so much for the breakfast. That's OK.

So, how are you feeling about the time approaching for it to go home?

There's something else I want to talk about first, if that's cool?

OK. Yeah?

Er...

..the crystal you gave me...

Yeah?

..about the sexiest in the masseria?

I've never heard you compliment me...

Interesting.

..or talk about me in that way. And then to get the crystal

last night... OK. ..was the first time you really said that, so...

I'm confused by the statement

cos I think I have complimented you multiple times.

I...

I just need clarity because...

But if you wanted clarity, why didn't you ask me yesterday?

Can I not sleep on something, Lindsey? Please.

I'm bringing it up first thing in the morning. You could have just

said to me, "I'm not going to lie, the crystal, lovely, thank you,

"but, like, I feel like I want to talk about it tomorrow."

So then I have, like, some sort of mental preparation before

I'm blindsided, and then you just, like, say something I thought

was fine, and then the next day, it's not fine.

Do you see what I mean?

But I really didn't know how I felt about it until I really slept on it.

Oh, God. Oh, my goodness.

Honestly, that conversation with Lindsey

definitely didn't go how I expected.

I felt very misunderstood.

SIGHS

I feel like it's just a constant contradiction, that's how I feel.

This is jarring my life, because how are you going to say to me that I'm

great, I do this, I do that, I'm helping you, blah, blah, blah

and so on and so forth, but now all of a sudden

I'm a constant contradiction?

No... You've never said that once. ..those two can correlate.

But you've never said that once, you've never vocalised this once.

Those two can correlate. OK, cool.

So, I'm going to get up and leave. I feel like...

..you create new things every day,

and I'm tired.

But have a lovely breakfast.

BLESSING SIGHS

I'm feeling,

erm...a bit dazed, I think.

To me, I thought that was the biggest showing of,

I want to progress and I want to take that next step,

but, honestly, I can't even.

I think I'm just more so confused than anything.

It's kind of disheartening cos I do want us to progress,

but I feel like I'm constantly being chastised, every day.

I definitely think some breathing space is needed.

Why do you look sort of like a fuck boy?

Like, staring at me from across the bar?

No, it's kind of hot. What, are you getting intimidated?

Yeah, I'm really nervous.

It is so good with Nikita and I in here,

but the main thing for me is that adjustment

of going from being single and so independent

to having someone else in your life.

I think the exclusivity thing for me, I don't do that lightly.

It does just scare me.

I wouldn't ever want to commit to someone if I didn't think it could

potentially, you know, be forever, and that's intense.

# And the coolest part of it Is how you tell me

# That you love me still. #

Well, those two might be locking lips,

but for Lindsey and Blessing, they're still locking horns.

There's only one thing for it -

we need a distraction.

Dial M, Divas, for Mother Minogue.

# Hey, so what do I do To get you back to mine

# Just for tonight? #

Ooh!

CHEERING

Oh, wow!

Dannii came walking in. She looked

absolutely divine.

I have news.

It's not the weather report, is it, Dannii?

Tomorrow is the final Kiss-Off.

Are you ready to commit and take your relationship

into the real world?

Or is it best to call time on your summer of love?

To give yourself time to think...

..tonight...

..you'll separate from your partners.

You won't see each other until the final Kiss-Off.

A lot to think about.

And to help you make the right decision...

..your friends and family are on their way to Italy to see you,

and they will be here very soon.

Ah!

Oh, my God! I can't.

I'm most excited to see my mum

and for her to meet Elisha.

They're going to help you make a really important decision.

It's the best time that my mum is coming in.

I think just listening to her advice will really just...

..just comfort me.

She understands me.

Ciao, my sweeties. Bye. ALL: Bye.

After that conversation - and we didn't really get anywhere with it -

I'm concerned that our families are going to meet.

I mean, it'll be a great thing to watch,

but not a great thing to be part of, I don't think.

Argh! I'm so scared! Oh, my God, I actually feel sick.

Right. Time for these honies to get moving

and shake off those pre-meet nerves.

Just go like that. Oh, my God. Can you do it all?

BOTTLE CLATTERS

I feel, like, excited.

I'm excited as well. But also, like, it's such a nervy feeling.

Yeah. Cos, like, it's... You know, it's a big thing.

It's a big deal! It's a big thing! Yeah.

It's just feeling more and more real with the final Kiss-Off tomorrow.

It's led me to start thinking about my abstinence lifestyle.

I want to be able to...

..fulfil Kayleigh in all areas.

I feel like we definitely have an emotional connection

and intellectual connection,

but when it comes to the sexual connection, am I being selfish in

not thinking about that other aspect that I won't be able to fulfil?

I don't know if I've actually told you this,

but with, like, past experiences with meeting people's mums,

the first couple of experiences were, like, quite bad ones.

Yeah. So, it was always just daunting.

We do have a great connection.

However, this is real life

and do I think it will be like this 100% on the outside?

Like, it definitely is some food for thought.

You look good. Thank you.

My mum is literally my bestest friend,

so, I'll see what she says and we'll go from there.

Are you excited to see your family?

Nervous.

Nervous for what?

It's one thing your family and friends coming out

to meet someone that obviously you've been dating,

but, like, you're my girlfriend, do you know what I mean? Mm-hm.

That's wild.

Yeah, but we don't have to tell them that straight away. No.

With friends and family en route from the airport,

there's just time for one last lick of lip gloss before this lot

get ready to soft-launch their relationships.

I'm a little bit nervous. Yeah.

I'm excited to meet your friends.

You can ask them about my letter.

I want to hear more about this stubborn thing. Ooh!

"Love you but you can be a stubborn bastard."

NIKITA LAUGHS

It was, like, embarrassing.

I've never actually met any of my exes' parents.

The thought, in the past,

of meeting my girlfriend's parents would have made me, like,

actually shit myself.

First in to meet Pippa is Nikita's mum, Nisha, and her sister, Karina.

Wait... This is so crazy. Oh, my God, they look so nice.

Oh, my God!

I just can't believe they're literally here.

Like, what the hell? How are you?

And then, they'd meet Pippa on top of that.

Like, it's just so crazy.

What's going on? Oh, my God, it's been crazy. Has it?

And here to meet Nikita, it's Pippa's friends, Paris and Jack.

It's so nice to just see their faces and give them a hug

and just, like, have that

side of my life mix with this side of my life.

OK. So Nikita has been here from the start.

So, you two haven't been coupled up the whole time?

We're, like, probably the newest one out of everyone. Yeah.

Do you have, like, a type, or are you kind of more like Nikita where

it's a bit more, like, an energy thing?

So I'm nonbinary as well, which just allows me, like,

complete freedom to be masculine or feminine,

or just whatever energy I'm feeling. NISHA: Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.

PARIS: Do you guys feel, like, nervous about leaving your bubble?

Yeah. Yeah.

I just feel so comfortable here.

It's just so nice to be, like, surrounded by queer people.

Inside a straight world.

Like, sorry, not to... But, like, your guys' world on the outside,

we finally know what it feels like now from being in here.

Yeah, yeah, that's so true.

Yeah, I think first impressions were good.

You know, my family would tell me

if they thought I wasn't being myself around a person,

because I think that, to them, is such a big indicator of whether,

you know, I'm happy or not.

Not happy with you. Yeah!

LAUGHTER

In your letter, you'd obviously said,

"Oh, yeah, I just don't want you with anyone that's stubborn."

And then in your letter, you literally said,

"I love you, Pip, but you're a stubborn bastard."

I was like, "Erm..."

I assume you probably mean stubborn in the way that, like,

I like to do things in my way.

Yeah, we need to hear it from the source. Yeah, sorry, you explain.

Just structured life - bedtimes, getting up, routine.

Can't get in the way of it. Yeah.

PARIS: I actually don't think it is in a relationship sense.

It's just, like, sometimes you can be in certain situations. Yeah, no.

We spoke about the stubborn thing, and I think it was reassuring

that it wasn't in the sense of a relationship, which is what

I'd told Nikita. So I hope it was nice and reassuring for her

that it kind of aligned.

I'm scared.

Are you scared? I'm scared.

Oh, my God.

On their way to meet Almayra are Kayleigh's mum, Trish,

and her cousin, Olivia.

Oh, my God.

So nice to see

my cousin and my mum.

ALMAYRA GASPS

My twin!

And joining the party

is Almayra's twin sister, Iman, and her friend, Tala.

Hi, there. Nice to meet you.

My twin, my best friend's here.

It's the best thing ever.

Kayleigh. Kayleigh? Oh, my God,

nice to meet you. You look beautiful. Thank you!

Oh, my God! Almayra and her sister, the tone

of their voices and the actual things they say - identical.

And that really freaked me out.

We've got the same mannerisms as well. Oh, my God!

TALA: Who was the one who, like, initiated first?

I think I did, to be honest. Right? Yeah, you did.

I couldn't, like, hide it.

I was just like, "She's so pretty." THEY LAUGH

I'm mellow, and you're, like, very energy,

But it's, like, when we're together... Balanced.

Yeah, there's a balance to it.

I think that's how relationships work best,

when it's a bit different and you complete each other.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Almayra really stepped up

and she led the conversation more than me,

which I didn't really expect

from her, and it was so nice.

You had mentioned about, like, the lifestyle aspect to it.

Are you a party girl?

Yeah.

LAUGHTER

Well, to be honest, you are and you're not.

I think you like to chill as well.

I think there's two sides to you, really. It's not all party.

I'm also, like, abstinent.

The reason being is because I want to find my person

before I'm so vulnerable with them.

I don't want it to be with someone who may be temporary.

And I've, like, said this to Kayleigh from the get-go.

Like, she's been amazing with the way she's trying to understand it.

It's obviously... That's where our lifestyles are just so different.

Yeah. And we just, like, we just talk about it.

With differences, it's not about changing them,

it's more about how can I fit within that difference?

Yeah. How can I adapt to it? Cos if you care about the person,

then certain things shouldn't matter.

I wanted to talk about the lifestyle,

because it is a serious thing. It's just that I wanted

to make it open and clear, you know?

So everyone else knew

what we've been talking about.

No bad reactions.

It just seemed like everyone was like, yeah.

Like, you know, just listening to us.

I'll see you tomorrow. See you tomorrow.

It's hugs all round as the Divas spend their first night apart,

before tomorrow's final Kiss-Off.

Oh, my God. See you later. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.

But first, tea's about to spill.

What did the friends and family really think?

She seems so lovely.

I'm just so used to having my freedom. Yeah.

Like, I've been single for two years.

I'm a very free spirit,

but obviously, when you're in a relationship,

you've got someone else to think about

and take into consideration, and I've just been getting a little bit

scared about how quick I've gone from that

to then potentially making a commitment.

You don't have to become exclusive and then your independence stop.

Like, you can still grow in a relationship. Yeah.

And it's obviously a different world when you're out of this, as well.

Yeah.

What do we think? I think they are lovely. I really love them.

I feel, like, a genuine warmth from them. Yeah, I agree.

They were really happy that

Pippa and I have such a good connection, and they were, you know,

reassuring me that, like, they can see it as well.

So, that was really comforting.

How do you feel about tomorrow?

Oh, my God, I've been shitting myself for tomorrow.

It's, like, so much, like, pressure, it's like a wedding.

I'm just going to go with my gut. That's what you've got to do.

That's the most important thing.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about this decision.

There's still a lot of questions that I want to ask Pippa,

but it's just down to however tomorrow goes, I guess.

I'm freaking out a bit.

There obviously are, like, some concerns.

The whole, like, abstinent thing.

Look, I'm a sexual person.

You know, you can get ying and yang.

Like, opposites can attract and it can work.

Being in here in a bubble, it's quite easy to wear

the rose-tinted glasses.

I love you guys. Big hugs.

So, I kind of needed their input

before I could even start considering

my decision tomorrow.

Bye. Bye. Bye.

She's really cool. She's so cool. Really funny. Mm.

She's very much, like, party, which isn't a bad thing,

but I'm just more homebody. Mm-hm.

And then, the abstinence thing...

It's only the start. It could blossom. It could, yeah.

I think you guys balance each other well. Yeah. Yeah?

Sleep on it. Yeah.

And then, whatever's going to happen is what's meant for you.

I'm weighing up a lot of things. Like, not only lifestyles, but just

can this work also on the outside?

The sky might be committing to even more rain...

I'll see you tomorrow, guys. You guys look good. You look sexy!

..but will Almayra and Kayleigh, and Pippa and Nikita,

commit to each other?

I'm really nervous.

For the others, their loved ones are getting ready to clock in

for some quality time.

But for Lindsey and Blessing... OK. ..the timing couldn't be more off.

I'm nervous. Are you excited?

Just ready to see my family.

Very, very awkward.

I'm not going to lie. It was very awkward.

First in to meet Blessing are Lindsey's sisters,

Winnie and Serena.

THEY SCREAM

I'm Serena. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you, I'm Blessing.

Nice to meet you.

Hi, nice to meet you. Winnie. I'm Blessing.

Oh, my God! Lindsey's family

are gorgeous.

Mm, mm, mm!

THEY LAUGH

And to run the rule over Lindsey, Blessing's sister, Destiny,

and her mum, Joy.

Wow!

Holy!

Lindsey. I've heard so much about you. Really? Yeah.

Gorgeous. Oh, thank you. I'm Winnie. Winnie.

Joy. Nice to meet you.

How you doing? I'm good. How are you?

I don't even have words.

Like, seeing my mum, my sister,

together with me in this place?

Wow.

OK, what are we cheersing to, guys?

Them!

ALL LAUGH

Right. OK. Cheers to them! Cheers!

LAUGHTER

Do you feel like you've been tested in here? Oh. Oh. A lot.

100%. Really? Yeah. 100%.

For us, like, as a couple, we definitely,

like, have very different communication styles

and that's been a bit of a barrier at times.

What are your communication styles, then?

Honestly, I just take a lot longer to process my emotions.

But Lindsey is a little bit more, you know, ready to...

Yeah, I'm very much in the moment

and, like, at that time, if you have an issue, please tell me,

I'd rather you let me know. You see, I like that. Yeah.

So, I think that's where we clash a little bit.

But also, I think that's where you'll complement each other.

Because I feel like you can... Yeah, you can learn that from each other.

Exactly. You can learn that from each other.

Cos you need to find a balance. It's so true.

On other ways, we have pretty similar values.

Yeah. Family. Family, yeah.

Having a person that's very family-oriented

is very important to me. Yeah. I think you'll be good.

Aw! The way you two look at each other!

I know. You're so cute. JOY: That's so good.

BLESSING: Lindsey and I had a conversation today,

and I felt like we did go around in circles a little bit.

When I saw her family and my family, it just remind me

why I gravitated to her in the first place,

why I'm so intrigued by her, why I've been trying to get to know her.

And she can see the same in me too, I hope.

Yeah, it made me feel all giddy again, you know?

It was really nice.

And I'm giddy at the thought of Gavin & Stacey,

the lesbian edition. Do you know what I mean?

Are you nervous? Yeah.

We can do this. I'm perfectly fine. Do I not seem fine?

No. And I'd fear the verbal diarrhoea.

I think it's one thing

meeting the family and friends, but I think

I do feel that extra pressure obviously,

cos me and Elise have made it official.

She is my girlfriend.

Ah, but when you know, you know, you know?

So, meeting Elise for the first time is Elisha's mum, Samantha,

and her cousin, Libby.

Hello, my darling. I've missed you.

Hello. Nice to meet you. I'm Elise.

Just seeing my mum and my cousin, it was beautiful.

It was everything I could have asked for and more.

You look gorge!

You do both look gorgeous.

To meet Elisha, Elise's mum, Pam.

Sorry, her name's Lisa.

And her friend, Liv.

Oh, my...

Hello.

How are you?!

It was just so surreal to be there with

your family and friends,

your partner's family and friends.

Has it been enjoyable?

It's been the best experience of my life. Really?

Yeah. Aw, that's so good!

Would you say Elisha's your usual type?

Mm.

Yeah. Really?

THEY LAUGH

She's just gorgeous.

Like, genuinely, you could put on a bin bag and I would...

You know what I'm like. When I'm around you, I get all giddy. Yeah.

Yesterday, we went on a date, basically. Yeah.

Canvas painting.

And what did your one say? My one said, "Be my missus."

GASPS I know it might seem a bit, "Whoa!"

But...it felt right.

Aw! Aw!

But it looks right, cos you guys look so happy.

Yeah. Why not?

We did tell them about the girlfriend thing.

It was a little bit nerve-racking cos you don't know how

they're going to react.

And it was like, "Oh!" Like, "That's lovely."

Where is home?

Yeah, they live in Wales.

No way! Oh, no way.

We're Gavin and Stacey. We are Gavin and Stacey.

I think that Wales is a bit long distant.

I don't know how... We'd have to maps it to know the exact...

How far would you say it is? Cos you go... I go there a lot.

Two and a half hours.

Is that all? Is it? Yeah. Shut up! I thought it was, like, four.

Previous relationships-wise,

they've always been quite close proximity,

very sort of in each other's pockets.

So, starting to really think about the long distance, like,

that being an issue, because of maybe my attachment style as well.

I'm quite, like, I want to be with you.

See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. Oh, God!

See you, guys. Thank you, everyone.

Mwah! Miss you already. Bye.

They're so cute.

I know, we will be cute. Yeah.

Obviously, she is the most masculine girl I've been for, I'd say.

Even in my past, I've had that soft masc, but it's been make-up

and stuff, and obviously, Elise isn't like that.

Yeah. The thing is, if you stick to,

like, you have this idea of a type... Yeah.

..you lose all the good ones because you're... Mm.

And it's weird because, like, being in here has made me realise,

when I've gone for too-feminine girls,

I've always felt like, oh, it's more platonic.

We haven't had that, like, you know, passion.

Whereas me and Elise, like, it's just perfect.

As amazing as the conversation went with all of us,

meeting family and friends, you know, that could be a deal-breaker.

I am really nervous about what they think.

My God, she's stunning. Really? Yeah.

But also, a really lovely person.

When you get with somebody, you are in it

and you're like, "I want to be around them all the time."

And she's in Wales, you're in Essex. Yeah.

It's a commitment, long distance.

I have never done that.

The longest drive I've done is 40 minutes,

so it's going to be a test of me.

There's just a level of effort that will need to be put in,

that will be more effort than was needed

if she lived down the road. And a level of trust, as well.

You don't want to hear any doubts,

but Liv knows me like the back of her hand.

She knows me to the core of me, and now have that little voice

in the back of my head going, "Oh, but what if it doesn't work?"

See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. Bye. Bye! Bye!

She is so, so sweet.

And she's, like, a bundle of joy.

She really is. Do you know what I mean, like?

Yeah. Today, we had a little bit of a disagreement.

Yeah? Um...

Does make me worry that...

..is the foundation we've built strong enough?

Do you like her? Yes. I do.

That means you want to work things out. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

You don't want this relationship to slip out of your finger

without you trying to put an effort together, to make this work.

Yeah.

My sister just gets me.

She knows how to ask me the right questions to make me

think about the right things.

Talking to both of them just really gave me a lot of clarity.

You have a lot of decision to make.

All right. I love you. All right. Mwah! Love you.

I can see why it works, because you're like,

obviously, life of the party.

And she's very relaxed, calm. Like, grounded and relaxed. Yeah.

And you're, like, hyper and outgoing,

and you kind of like balance each other out. Exactly.

You can bring out the extrovert in her and she can bring out,

like, the calm in you. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah.

I think it's a really good match. I think so, yeah. Yeah.

And even though the communication is a bit of an issue sometimes...

Yeah. Arguing is fine. That's healthy, that's normal.

But you have to argue in, like, a conducive, constructive way,

not toxic. Yeah.

As long as you guys are willing to work at it,

then I think it's worth it.

Decision looming,

and I have to really just,

like, shit or get off the pot, really.

Oh, gosh.

What a day. What a day, what a day.

Group hug.

Ah!

Love you, guys.

Our couples have been separated for their final night

in the masseria, to help them think long and hard

about what tomorrow's final Kiss-Off really means.

Guys... Come here. ..a really quick group hug.

Aw.

I hate uncertainty.

If they truly see a future together, they will turn to their partner...

I feel like, to me, it's, like, quite a big commitment. Yeah. Yeah.

..but, if in their heart of hearts they don't see it working,

they must not turn.

My mind is now, like, twiddling, because I'm just thinking, like,

what the hell have they spoke about?

That's what's freaking me out. That's what's making me spiral.

I'm like, what do they actually think? Mm-hm.

As amazing as it is that me and Elise have made it official,

and, like, I am her girlfriend,

like, meeting the family and friends

is enough to potentially,

you know, not turn at the final Kiss-Off.

It's kind of hard not to stress, I think, cos it is such a big deal.

Whilst it was really an amazing meet and I'm like, "Oh, my God,

"I love her family so much,"

it's definitely still a concern, the communication thing.

That's OK.

I know. I know.

I have a lot to think about.

But all I know is that when I'm with Lindsey, it feels so right.

Having my family here,

they saw what I see in Lindsey

how we look at each other, how we laugh together.

SIGHS

I don't know.

It's just a lot to think about.

# I'd rather lose it all for you Than regret things I didn't do

# Don't wanna be alone... #

Oh, my loves! Our last night.

Guys, no, no.

I'm actually going to be so sad.

I know, Queen. The gayest holiday of your lives is almost over.

The masseria weeps for ya.

# Don't walk away wondering What could have been

# What could have been When I know you want me. #

Well, goodnight.

Goodnight. Night-night.

I love you. Love you. Love you.

LAUGHS

I love you.

For the very last time, get yourselves to bed,

because tomorrow is a big day.

# When you want it the most There's no easy way out... #

Morning!

# When you're ready to go And your heart's left in doubt... #

Sleepy head.

I can't believe that this is the last time we're going to be

waking up together. I know. No, no, stop.

And just like that, it's the morning of the final Kiss-Off.

Honestly, I did not sleep well last night, at all.

Yeah.

Oh, where's Flavia with a frappe when you need her, eh?

Today is the day.

Today is Judgment Day.

It's giving Four Weddings And A Funeral.

It's just scary.

It's whether or not I want to be

brave enough and not feed into my fear of commitment.

You know, you come in here, and then you find someone,

and then you're like, "Ah! Wait! I'm not ready!"

# You don't know what you're looking for... #

It was so rushed when me and Elise said goodbye.

That's all I've been thinking about all night, because I'm

so used to her extroverted, like, boom-la-kaka self.

She wasn't like that.

And I'm shitting myself.

I genuinely don't know what I'm going to do.

Cos yesterday, I thought I knew what I was going to do.

Then I sat down and I was like, "Mm, actually, I don't know."

Yeah, the final Kiss-Off is definitely making me nervous.

Meeting Blessing's mum and sister

showed me that, like, she is a truly kind soul.

I do need to think rationally and remember the issues that we

do have, but also remember the ups and the positives that we have.

The only thing that I'm worried about is how Lindsey

and her two sisters' conversation went. Yeah.

Cos you don't know,

because, to your face, they could have been so chill.

Yeah.

And that's what's freaking me out. Yeah.

Every single person is spiralling.

Almayra's spiralling. Blessing's spiralling,

Elisha's spiralling.

We're trying to keep each other up,

but it's bloody hard when we're all just, like, yeah.

It's like, "Oh, my God!"

On a scale of one to ten, how nervous are you?

I'd say, like, a nine. I can't lie. I'm feeling a bit sick.

There's just a lot of mixed emotions going on.

It is quite a big deal to me.

I just need to go with my gut.

Their minds might still feel cloudy, but at least one thing is clear.

That's right - the sun's only flippin' come out!

Oh! Nerves, nerves, nerves.

Will our four couples turn to a future together...

Are you missing Blessing, Lindsey? I am.

I hope she slept well.

Aw! I do.

..or decide their summer of love ends here?

Flavia's got the fizz flowing...

Oh, yes, please. ..friends and family are in position,

and now we just need our fabulous Cupid to kick it all off.

# This is the summer of love... #

Here she comes.

# Tonight the fiesta will come... # CHEERING

# 100 degrees In the shade of the trees

# One more time. #

Yeah, yeah!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Ciao.

CHEERING

This is getting real.

Everyone's here.

You look great.

LAUGHTER

She flew in from Australia.

Right.

Four couples are facing a very big decision.

It's time for your loved ones to decide whether the relationship

they've found here has what it takes to go the distance.

Will they put in the work needed when reality hits home?

Ultimately, will they commit to a future outside the masseria,

or do they feel, hand on heart, that it's best to call time

on their summer of love and let each other go?

First up, Elise and Elisha.

In this moment, in this final Kiss-Off, it's all about

staying true to yourself.

And that's all I can do.

WHISPERS: How are you feeling?

I can't breathe. Can't breathe?

You got this.

Some people have probably thought that

me and Elise have been a little bit U-Haul and obviously,

like, fallen quite quickly and made it official.

It's been awful not being able to speak to her,

so, I really, really don't know what she's feeling right now.

OK, girls, this is it.

I hope you make the right decision for you, whatever that might be.

If you want to stay with your girl, then turn and kiss her.

I think she is the most gorgeous Welsh queen.

She has stood out from the minute that she walked up them steps

and the first time I saw her,

and it took me a minute to pluck up the courage to go and talk to her -

but from the second that I did, I knew it was something special.

But, if you want to call time on your summer of love,

then don't turn.

Our whole experience, I think,

has just been so magical.

And even though I have been really anxious,

since meeting the family and friends,

I'm just really, really hoping

that she still wants to be with me.

Girls, if you're ready to commit,

then seal it with a kiss...

..now.

ALL CHEER

I missed you!

I missed you more, Elise!

I missed you so much. Oh...!

My heart.

You're shaking like a leaf.

Are you OK?

Oh, I can breathe, I can breathe.

I've never felt like this before.

I know - and thank God you didn't pass out.

That was horrible. As I was walking in, I was just like,

"Oh, my God, what if she doesn't turn?"

Yeah, I've been a nervous wreck.

Nervous wreck.

Boo. I love you.

SHE GASPS

I love you too.

Gah!

Cringe! Cringey!

So, you were strangers a few weeks ago,

and now you're leaving here as girlfriends.

Crazy. I know.

Who would have thought? I never, ever expected it.

So, what's next for you two?

She's coming to Wales next weekend.

I am!

ALL CHEER

This has made me so happy, as you can tell.

Yeah.

ALL CHEER

Got a ring to it.

Elise is still trying to catch up on the breathing.

You've got to learn some breathing techniques!

Next up, Kayleigh and Almayra.

We have a different relationship towards sex,

but the emotional bond we have

is quite a rarity.

There's just so many things about Kayleigh

that I've always wanted within someone.

I'm definitely thinking about our differences,

and maybe it may be too different to work on the outside world.

I've discovered what I need within this experience,

and I'm definitely putting that first today.

Yeah, really just going with my heart on this one.

Deep breaths.

Girls, be honest, go with your heart,

and follow your gut.

If you want to stay with your girl,

then turn and kiss her...

No matter what happens,

I just want to, you know, leave here with no regrets.

..but if you want to call time on your summer of love,

then don't turn.

I'm definitely weighing up my head versus my heart.

It's just really hard.

Girls, if you're ready to commit,

then seal it with a kiss...

..now.

OK, bring it in.

I'm sorry. It's OK.

It's OK.

Kayleigh, what brought you to this decision?

I just think that we have a few issues

that I think are quite big - our lifestyle choices -

and neither of us should compromise on them.

Yeah.

Almayra, how do you feel?

I just... I feel like I've never had really, you know, good communication

with people I've tried to date in the past,

and you've kind of given me, like, everything I want

and need in someone.

So, I didn't want to leave here thinking, what if,

if I hadn't, you know, turned.

I'm just so glad that she was honest with it -

but, yeah, it wasn't nice to hear.

You might not be a match,

but I can see the respect.

I feel like this is going to lead to a beautiful friendship.

I think so too.

Yeah.

Kayleigh was giving me everything I needed.

Yeah, I feel sad.

I'm so bloody proud of you.

Next, it's Pippa and Nikita.

I have been a bit scared of commitment

and of getting hurt again.

My independence does mean a lot to me.

It's a massive decision

to, like, let someone else into this little safe, peaceful world

that I've created for myself.

It's one thing finding a connection in here, and it working,

but, in reality, we're all going to go home,

we've all got our own lives.

Like, are we going to be able to slot into each other's lives,

or is it going to, you know, create more friction and drive us apart?

Like, just because it works in here

doesn't necessarily mean it's going to work out there.

I hope you've made the right decision for you.

If you want to stay with your partner, then turn and kiss them...

..but if you want to call time on your summer of love,

then don't turn.

If you're ready to commit,

then seal it with a kiss...

..now.

Oh, my gosh!

Whoa, crazy!

Amazing...

A sigh of relief.

Yeah.

Yeah, I was stressing out.

I was having some crashouts!

Everything so far has been so, like, perfect between us,

and it's all just been, like, there's not been any sort of issues.

So, it was, I guess, even scarier,

with a slight fear of commitment,

to...to, like, fully just go for it -

but I'm just proud of both of us for being brave.

I'm really happy. I was so nervous.

Like, I didn't know what Pippa was going to do -

but, at the end of the day, I just, like, stayed true to myself

and did what felt right for me.

Very happy.

I feel like I turned and, like, you, like, delayed it a tiny bit.

I just didn't want to be too keen!

Nikita!

LAUGHTER

And, finally, Lindsey and Blessing.

Blessing makes me feel seen,

and I just love that.

It does give me optimism on what could possibly be.

I am concerned, if we can't communicate

in this bubble, away from society,

how are things going to work out on the outside,

when there are so many other obstacles?

With this final decision,

I really have to make sure that my boundaries are being met.

I don't want to put Lindsey's feelings and emotions

before my own in this decision.

OK, girls, this is it.

If you want to stay with your girl,

then turn and kiss her...

There's been an inner conflict, for sure.

I've had a lot of ups as well as downs,

and meeting the family yesterday was definitely euphoric.

A myriad of feelings right now, I'm feeling, yeah, for sure.

..but if you want to call time on your summer of love,

then don't turn.

Lindsey and I have had such an amazing connection here.

Getting to know her has been the most exciting roller-coaster

I've ever been on -

but I really have to be realistic here,

and think about if this is going to work outside in the real world.

If you're ready to commit,

then seal it with a kiss...

..now.

Oh, no.

Girls, bring it in, turn around.

Let's talk it through.

What happened, Lindsey?

SHE SIGHS

I think that there's definitely, like, chemistry

and a lot of love there,

but the communication was one thing that we couldn't get past.

Was it a hard decision?

Yeah, of course.

I mean, from day one, since I walked in here,

I gravitated straight to Lindsey.

It is difficult, but we both know what's best for ourselves. Yeah.

Come on. Bring it in.

I think I definitely make the best decision for myself,

and whilst it wasn't the love life that I wanted to continue on into,

it definitely was a love nonetheless.

Not turning for Lindsey

and saying that I want to put an end

to my summer of love with her was difficult,

but I don't regret it.

It's obviously very sad that this is where our chapter romantically ends,

but I've been really honest with myself, and I'm proud of myself.

Thanks for being so honest and sharing so much.

If you're leaving here with a heavy heart, keep it open.

You never know who's around the corner.

If you're leaving here smitten,

then Cupid here is waiting for all the updates.

LAUGHTER

Remember, stay proud,

never change who you are -

and most importantly, love who you want to love.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

And this is my favourite moment of all -

let's go party!

ALL CHEER

MUSIC: Because Of You by Gustaph

The hottest, the gayest, the best summer ever.

I've come out so much more gay,

and I started so gay, so this is quite funny.

I am so proud of my sexuality.

Like, I want to live and breathe being queer -

and I didn't do that before. I hid it.

I've learned I can be queer,

I'm nonbinary, I'm fluid.

I can just be Pippa -

and I love that.

I just feel so vibrant,

and I can't wait to put that into my actual life

and see where it can take me.

I met Dannii! Yeah! Dannii Minogue!

My God! Dannii!

I see you.

I love you for who you are.

I love you so much, Blessing.

I'm so proud you've done this experience,

and I'm just loving you, like, flourishing,

cos this is the place to, isn't it?! Oh, I love you!

Oh!

Even if you didn't come back with a romantic connection,

you've grown so much as a person.

Like, you look and feel so much more comfortable in your skin.

I'm just like, yeah, that's my big sis!

Like, period, she's a baddie, she's a baddie, yeah!

I can't believe how amazing this experience has been,

and I feel like you're really becoming who you are,

and I'm happy to be your mum.

Aw. I'm really happy, really proud.

We've declared our love for each other,

and we're probably just going to go and get a dog

and just sail off into the sunset,

and probably get married and just...

Mm!

I'm joking. Yeah!

LAUGHTER

ALL: Hot queer summer is over!

Mwah!

I'm not ready for this to end!

Are you?
