Love Island WILL do the baby task this year after fans feared it’d been ditched with the lie detector test

Love Island WILL do the baby task this year after fans feared it’d been ditched alongside the lie detector test.

The Sun Online can reveal the hilarious challenge is set to make a return in the final week of the series.

It's been a long-standing tradition that the islanders are faced with the reality of becoming parents to toy dolls who need changed, washed and fed.

But the challenge pushes couples to the brink as they row about who has to spend less time sunbathing and more time babysitting – and even what they should call their darling newborn.

Former star Montana Brown previously quipped: "It's the best form of contraception."

"The baby task will be back with a bang before the end of the series," a show insider said.

"It's one of the most popular tasks of the show, which never fails to entertain fans.

"Although it always pushes the couples' buttons it's a fun and lighthearted moment that gives islanders an, often terrifying, glimpse into the future."

In the past, the Islanders were all woken by a chorus of screams from a number of baby dolls in what usually becomes the biggest test of their relationships yet.

Each couple is usually assigned a baby and automatically become new 'parents', which means they must tend to their baby's every need which includes feeding as well as nappy changes.

Not all the Islanders rise to the task, with most often struggling to even deal with the idea of looking after a baby.

But others, like series three star Chris Hughes, get incredibly attached to their bundle of joy – and even shed a tear at the end of the task.

It was unclear whether the baby challenge would still take place for Love Island's fifth series after the axing of its lie detector test in an effort to clean up the show.

The Sun on Sunday revealed the lie detector would not return this year following the death of a Jeremy Kyle Show guest, and last year’s row over the way eventual winners Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham were treated.

But last night viewers were begging for its return, claiming it was needed to expose "rattled" Molly-Mae Hague's true feelings.

Despite the couple being favourites to win the show, some fans are unconvinced by Molly-Mae and fear she is only using Tommy to win £50,000.

And with the only other strong couple – Anna and Jordan – on the rocks, it has led many fans to argue that none of the islanders deserve the prize money.
