Love Island 12 Reunion Party: Who Didn’t Show Up?
- Harrison Solomon missed the reunion for a nightclub gig in Swansea.
- Ben Holbrough had a prior commitment in Blackpool.
- Sophie Lee promoted her book at a Manchester event.
- Will Means was traveling to Copenhagen.
- The reunion was private with no TV broadcast planned.
The Love Island Season 12 reunion brought the cast back together for a glamorous night in London—but not everyone made it. While winners Toni Laites and Cach Mercer, along with finalists Shakira Khan, Harry Cooksley, Yasmin Pettet, and Jamie Rhodes, turned heads at the event, four key islanders were noticeably absent.
From nightclub gigs to book promotions, their reasons for missing the party reveal just how busy life gets after the villa. Here’s exactly who wasn’t there—and what they had to say about it.
Harrison Solomon, the season’s most talked-about love triangle participant, missed the reunion for a prior engagement. The 22-year-old had a scheduled appearance at Eden nightclub in Swansea for an A-Level results party.
Despite his absence, his partner Lauren Wood attended with her girl squad, including Helena Ford and Megan Clarke. Harrison’s journey to the event wasn’t smooth—he shared a video on Instagram Stories detailing his struggles:
“Tyre finished. Still on my way Swansea.”
He later took a £200 Uber to make it on time, with the venue posting photos of him greeting fans around 2:30 AM.
Ben Holbrough’s Blackpool Booking Clashed With the ReunionOriginal islander Ben Holbrough also skipped the party due to a conflicting event. Like Harrison, he was booked for a nightclub appearance—this time in Blackpool.
His absence was confirmed by multiple sources, including OK! and Daily Star.
Sophie Lee, the first contestant dumped this season, prioritized her body confidence event in Manchester. She used her Instagram Stories to share updates about her book, In My Skin, keeping fans informed.
While no direct statement was provided, her social media activity made it clear she was focused on her post-villa projects.
Will Means Was Already Jet-Setting to CopenhagenWill Means, who had a brief stint in the villa, was preparing for a trip abroad. He posted a video from the airport, humorously detailing his security woes:
“Detailing his struggles getting through security with a set of Allen Keys.”
His travel plans left no room for the reunion, though fans got a glimpse of his pre-flight antics.
