Love Island has revealed the voting percentages for this year's final, and the results have left some fans unconvinced. Winners Lorenzo Alessi and Julia Majchrzak secured 46.9% of the public vote, while runners-up Kavan Murphy and Jasmine Muller received 27.1%. Third-placed Angelista Gunda and Simba Kudyiwa narrowly missed the runner-up spot with 26%.
Fan Reactions
Despite the official numbers, many viewers expressed disbelief on social media. One Instagram user wrote: "I actually dont believe this but ok." Another added: "How is this even possible? They were barely a couple. Lorenzo didnt even want a gf! This isn’t friend island! So weird!" On X, a user fumed: "Such an awful love island uk finale. love island usa may have had awful production, people, and couples too but they went off with the final dates & the audience went off with crowning brinity the winners #loveislanduk #loveisland."
Lorenzo Defends Relationship
Since their win, some fans have questioned the authenticity of Julia and Lorenzo's relationship. Lorenzo has hit back, acknowledging that while he understands the skepticism—since they have not rushed through relationship milestones on screen—he believes that pressure would have "ruined things" for him.
Winners' Background
Lorenzo is a fashion entrepreneur from Hertfordshire who co-founded a luxury Mediterranean-influenced menswear brand called Palmera in December 2024. His father, Oz, is a former high-profile celebrity bodyguard and doorman at the famous celebrity haunt Sheesh in Chigwell, Essex. Through his father, Lorenzo has connections to stars such as Zayn Malik, Danny Dyer, former islander Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, and also trains MMA fighters.
Final Twist
Going into the final, four couples were in contention, but Yasmin Hadlow and Tommy Stagg were eliminated in a final twist. Earlier, on Sunday night, Mica Harris and Samraj Toor were axed by dumped Islanders, who also chose another couple to leave with them.
