Love Island Viewers Not Happy About ‘I Got A Voice Note’

Love Island Viewers Not Happy About ‘I Got A Voice Note’

We can't deal!

Love Island started back last night with 11 new singletons embarking upon a summer of love. Meanwhile, the internet was blowing up with memes from viewers reacting to the first episode.

And while fans couldn't wait to hear 'I got a text!' once again after an 18-month break from the show, what they weren't expecting to hear Toby Aromolaran say was "I've got a voice note."

'I've got a text!' is the elite, original Love Island catchphrase.

While some found it entertaining, others weren't happy about the switch-up.

Here are some of the reactions.

Twitter user @stacecombellack posted a GIF of Homer Simpson backing away into a bush and captioned it: "Nooooo if they make "I've got a voice note" a thing I'm out."

Is 'I got a voice note' a thing now?

Well, we already know it's not going to catch on with viewers, and considering the show's producers have just released a new game called Love Island Obsessives - and keep up to date with the latest drama.

ing/53021-love-island-app-i-got-a-text-20210608">'I Got A Text!', we doubt they'll be replacing the original saying.

So it's safe to say they're just messing guys, don't worry.

Love Island is on weeknights at 9pm on ITV Hub . The episodes are available to stream on BritBox the following morning.
