Love Island
Let me count the ways.
As far asLove Islandcontestants go,Will Young, aka.
@farmerwill_, is far from your typical Islander.
He isn’t a city boy.
He isn’t a footballer.
Or a financial adviser.
And one in-tune with his feelings and emotions.
And yes, sometimes hes a bit awkward and comes across as a bit of a dork.
(See what I did there?)
(PETA, though,has a different take.
(Which he does often, in his own goofy way, mainly in the background.)
His interactions with his fellow Islanders seems completely sincere, too.
If anything, they are overly enthusiastic.
Recall the many times he has referred to different situations as the most romantic or the best yet.
On Twitter, the #FarmerWill discourse often compares him toseries 7s Hugo or series 4s Dr. Alex.
We know how this plays out, notes one Twitter user.
CueJessie, theLove IslandAustralia bombshell.
I pictured her making a beeline for Kai.
And yet she seems to genuinely be attracted to Will.
He pulled her for a chat, and against all odds, he crushed it.
There was no (overt) awkwardness, and they bonded over country life.
She picked him (andTom) for the picnic dates which seemed to further their connection.
The real icing on the cake?
And she chose to kiss Will in the cheeky astronaut challenge again.
Naturally, Will was over the moon.
(Get it?)
But were wrong to categorise Will, goofy and friendzoned as he has been, as an underdog.
Perhaps it really is as simple as two country folk meeting, finding common ground.
Farmer Will is as confident and capable in his world as any of the other Islanders are in theirs.
Farmer Will will do just fine.
