TASHA Ghouri has taken a leaf out of Molly-Mae Hague's book in the villa, according to Love Island fans.

Back in 2019, show favourite Molly-Mae spent much of her time snuggling not with her boyfriend Tommy Fury, but her beloved cuddly Elephant Ellie-Belly.

The sweet connection with her childhood comforter endeared her to viewers.

Now fans of the show are claiming Tasha is hoping for the same outcome after she was seen holding her teddy in bed.

One said: "Tasha really thought she’d be creating an iconic moment like this with her tatty teddy."

A second posted: "Tasha bringing in a little teddy, no your not molly-mae."

A third wrote: "Tasha stop trying to make ur teddy the new Ellie-Bellie, not gonna happen."

Viewers claimed there was another nod to Molly in the villa yesterday too.

As the sexy singletons all got ready for bed, Kygo's song Love Me Now played in the background.

The tune starts with artist Zoe Wees singing "only 24 hours in the day" .

The choice of song sent viewers into a frenzy as they pointed out that it made reference to Molly's previous comments on  podcast.

Back in January Molly came under fire for comments she made about her success after insisting "we all have the same 24 hours in the day."

Molly has seen her career as an influencer reach new heights since the show. She's launched her own fake-tan brand and has also become the creative director of Pretty Little Thing, raking in millions in the process.
