Love Island's Faye 'fakes emotions' and Jake's 'playing a game', says expert

A leading body language expert has lifted the lid on Love Island's remaining contestants and called out some snakey behaviour with just two weeks to go before the grand final.

The likes of Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish - who are the only boyfriend/girlfriend couple in the villa - and recently reconciled Faye Winter and Teddy Soares are some of the favourites to take home the £50,000 cash prize.

But Darren Stanton - who has been dubbed as TV’s Human Lie Detector - has claimed both Jake and Faye are too busy playing a game to worry about love.

Darren claims Faye has an "agenda" in the show, while he's also slammed Jake for "faking" things with girlfriend Liberty and the other Islanders.

Giving his verdict, he told BetMinded : "Liberty appears a very genuine person from her mannerisms, but I feel Jake is playing a game.

"I have seen several gestures when he is speaking to other Islanders, where he is trying to come over as sensitive and open and honest - however some of his micro expressions and other gestures make him seem that he's faking to a large extent."

Darren is convinced Faye is also playing a game with Teddy, and he isn't sure they will last as a couple, despite her grovelling apology last night which ended with a kiss.

"I think from all of the islanders Faye is the real player, who has an agenda that she's running," he said.

"I feel that she is quite disingenuous and at times fakes emotion with the other girls especially when she's consoling the others if they're upset. I think she's quite false and manipulative and overall the most distrustworthy of them all.

"I think she's really planning to win the competition by all means necessary.

"Teddy was quiet during her apology speech, but his communication does indicate that he is processing a lot internally. Despite the fact the apology ended in a kiss, I'm still not convinced that they will last.

"There seems to be some reticence in Teddy’s non-verbal communication, but time will tell."

While Darren predicts a swift end to Faye and Teddy's romance, he's more hopeful for Priya Gopaldas and Matthew MacNabb, who seem to have really hit it off.

He said: "I feel Matt and Priya are displaying some definite non-verbal signals that they are very much into each other. I'm going to stick my neck out and predict that Priya and Matt could stand a very good chance of making the final and possibly even winning."

He also sees hope for a future between Kaz Kamwi and Tyler Cruickshank.

"They seem to be matching and mirroring lots of similar genuine emotion and I actually see them making it as a couple in the real world too," he added.
