We're just days away from the Love Island 2023 final, but that hasn't stopped the show from adding fresh twists and turns.
Recently, the islanders were visited by their parents, much earlier than usual on the ITV2 dating show - and now, Love Island has only gone and added a brand new awards ceremony, known as The Grafties.
At the end of Monday night's episode, The Grafties were teased, with the event set to air on Tuesday night's show.
So, what exactly are the Love Island Grafties? And how does it work exactly?

What are The Grafties?
The Grafties is a brand new awards segment for Love Island season 10.
During the episode, Ella Barnes will receive a text which reads: “Islanders. It’s time to get ready, as tonight there will be an award ceremony that’s all about you. The Grafties. The winner of each category has been chosen by the public #TheNomineesAre #RollTheTapes.”
The islanders will then get ready for the evening, before heading into the garden for the awards ceremony.
Each category has three nominees, and the islanders will watch a clip of each nominee before the winner is revealed. The winner will then collect their award and give an acceptance speech.
What are the categories and nominees for The Grafties?
The categories for the Love Island awards ceremony are:
Flirtiest Performance
- Nominees are: Abi Moores, Scott van der Sluis and Ella B
It’s Giving Plot Twist
- Nominees are: Jess Harding, Mitchel Taylor and Zachariah Noble
Most Snakey Sitch

WTF? Moment
- Nominees are: Molly Marsh, Sammy Root and Jess
Best Head to Head
- Nominees are: Whitney Adebayo, Ella Thomas and Mitch
Mad Moves

Certain clips ruffle feathers among the islanders, as they get a front row seat to an array of conversations they weren't aware of.
During the ceremony, Tyrique says, “Lochan be pillow-talking with his girl too much," to which Whitney responds, “What’s wrong with that? Everyone speaks to their partner.”
Mitch’s nominations for ‘Mad Moves’ shows the moment he was speaking to Abi at the fire pit, confessing he didn’t think there was a romantic connection between him and Ella B.
“You said you didn’t want to kiss me?” Ella B says.
Abi then asks: “Didn’t you say forced?”
Mitch says: “I’m extremely happy now. This is the happiest I’ve been in this villa, believe me.”
But who has the public deemed worthy of each award? And will the islanders be left questioning connections and friendships following The Grafties?
