Harry and Helena couple up before Casa Amor in Love Island UK season 12
In Love Island UK season 12's latest episode, Harry and Helena coupled up after Shakira broke up with the male cast member for lying to her about his chemistry with the female cast member.
Ahead of the recoupling ceremony, Helena and Harry went to the hideaway to enjoy some quality time together. Harry asked the Love Island UK cast member how she felt, and they shared a laugh over feeling "great."
Helena suggested they go into the pool, and Harry said they could stay there all afternoon. When Helena said there was nowhere to sit, the male cast member said she could sit on his lap.
Helena spoke to the cameras about going to the hideaway with Harry and said they were going to go the previous night but refrained for six "solid hours" out of respect for Shakira.
While in the pool, Harry told Helena he couldn't wait to get his "filthy paws" on her and said they were "undeniable." Later in the episode, at the recoupling ceremony, the male Love Island UK season 12 cast members had the power to decide who they wanted to couple up with.
While Harry explained his choice to couple up with Helena, he said there was something "undeniable" between them and he believed it as well. Although the two coupled up, the end of the episode introduced the islanders to the Casa Amor bombshells as they stood on the terrace and waved at the islanders.
Although everyone was excited, Harry recognized one bombshell out of the lot.
"Oh my God, it's my ex," Harry said.
Fans of Love Island UK season 12 reacted to to the producers bringing in Harry's ex just as he coupled up with Helena and termed it "messy."
