Charleen Crashes Out of Love Island After Just Nine Days, Cries for More Time

Jul 11 2026

Charleen Murphy, the so-called 'Queen' of Love Island, barely made a dent in the villa, crashing out after just nine days. Her time was cut short despite being labeled the most anticipated bombshell ever.

The Dublin social media star entered as a Casa Amor bombshell, but her stay was fleeting. Kavan Murphy, 21, chose to recouple with her, but the moment they returned to the main villa, he flipped back to his previous partner, Jasmine Muller. Charleen was left single and eliminated during the recoupling.

In a lengthy Instagram post, Charleen reflected on her whirlwind experience. She stated, "It might only have been nine days, but entering the Love Island villa was an experience I’ll never forget." She expressed gratitude for the memories and friendships formed during her short stay.

Charleen candidly admitted she wished for more time in the villa, claiming, "I know there’s so much more to me." She emphasized that every emotion she displayed was genuine and that having a soft heart is a strength she will carry forward.

She acknowledged that while outcomes are beyond control, how one treats others is paramount. "If you stay authentic, lead with kindness, and keep your heart open, that’s something you can be proud of," she added.

Fans quickly rallied behind Charleen after her exit. Supporters flooded social media with messages of encouragement. One fan declared, "We were all watching just because of you! You did yourself proud gorgeous." Another chimed in with pride for their "Irish Queen."

Comments poured in praising her authenticity and strength throughout the process. One supporter remarked, "You stayed 100% true to yourself for the whole process and we are all super proud of you." Another predicted her return to screens, saying, "A Queen So proud! Love Island All Stars do your thinggg!"

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
