Priya from Love Island has drawn criticism from viewers after comments about Elicia’s job during a dispute in the villa. The exchange followed the airing of clips from Love Island: Aftersun in which Elicia described Priya as a game player. The next morning Priya expressed frustration to others in the group, suggesting Elicia should return to her role at National Rail instead of appearing on Aftersun. Kavan responded that there was nothing wrong with working on the railway. Priya continued to question why Elicia would comment on her behaviour. Aidan later told Priya her remarks had gone too far. She accepted the feedback and said it did not reflect her usual approach. On social media many viewers called the comments classist and accused Priya of job shaming. Others praised Kavan for challenging the statements while noting the silence of other islanders. Priya has also clashed with Julia over comments about her relationship with Aidan and their chances in the final.
