LOVE Island fans think they’ve spotted ‘proof’ that the two drink rule has been scrapped for the All Stars series – and they’re not mad about it.
This new season, which has seen old Love Island stars come back for round two in the villa, has already been filled with drama.
From rows between couples like Arabella and Chris to unexpected snogs, the Islanders have been letting loose during their evening gatherings.
And eagle-eyed viewers think they know the reason why.
After concern arose about the mental health of contestants, ITV bosses made a rule that participants on the reality show are only allowed two drinks per night.
Stars such as Eyal Booker and Laura Anderson have confirmed this in the past, sharing how little alcohol there was available on set.

However, fans of the show think the rules have been scrapped this series, after spotting some Islanders slurring words and behaving more chaotically than usual.
One person took to social media speculating: “Does anyone else feel like they’re being given way more alcohol this season?
“Last night when Arabella ended the fight with Chris and was crying with the girls she looked and sounded like she was absolutely hammered. I also keep noticing them not being so preserving of their drinks in the evenings.
“I think the fact that they’re all older and have experience on the show that they’ve be allowed more to up the drama a bit.”

Someone agreed, adding: “It’d make all of the girls’ over-emotion and Luis’ flare up make more sense. Long may it last!”
A third shared: “Was wondering the same thing. It’s probably light drinks. We saw how messy the islanders got in s1-3 when they drank, the producers probably felt like if they’re new on the scene they shouldn’t make fools of themselves anymore because it leads to backlash. But these islanders know the drill and they have the followings so I think the drinking isn’t controlled by production as much.”
A fourth also joked: “Liberty got to be drunk, they’ve upped their glasses this season right?”
Many viewers were left delighted by the change, stating: “I hope so, may be controversial but the two drink limit helped to kill Love Island. They absolutely want to get tipsy, let them.”
Another exclaimed: “I want them going full Geordie Shore!”
