There are plenty of reasons not to sob now Love Island is over.
Firstly, the reunion show is airing this Sunday. Secondly, you can still stalk all of your favourite islanders on social media to keep up to date with what theyre doing. Thirdly, it might cost you a few bob but you can go and rent the Love Island villa for the summer, if youre really that upset.
But aside from these reasons, dont forget your TV sets arent going anywhere and, lucky for you, there are still a number of great shows waiting for us to get hooked on this summer.
So, without further ado, seven shows to get obsessed with now our holiday romance with Love Island is over…
Celebs Go Dating
The obvious choice is most definitely Celebs Go Dating. Why? Because a certain Love Islander has signed up to star in the new series. Thats why.

Speaking of Eyal, we wont be without the model for too long, as he recently signed up to Celebs Go Dating.
After not finding love in Majorca, the curly-haired 22-year-old has decided to try his hand at another reality TV show, in a bid to settle down.
And hes in good company, as Olivia Attwood has also signed up for the E4 show, following her split from exes Chris Hughes and Bradley Deck.
Sugababes Mutya Buena, Made In Chelsea star Alik Alfus and TOWIE favourites Chloe Sims and Vas Morgan will also be trying to find the one.
Celebs Go Dating returns to screens in autumn.
Ex on the Beach
Its a safe bet that if you like Love Island, youll be all over Ex On The Beach too. The main difference is, EOTB might have slightly more unavoidable drama (yes, its more dramatic than that time Wes ditched Laura for Megan who then ditched Wes for Alex).
Imagine jet-setting off to your dream holiday destination in the pursuit of romance only to find out that your potential love interest is your ex… yep, awkward huh? This years series will air in just over a fortnight, on Monday 15 August on MTV, so youve got two weeks to watch old YouTube clips of it and scrub up on what to expect.
