Love Island couple Meg and Dejon have been dumped from the villa just one day before the final, following a dramatic episode on Sunday night. Host Maya Jama made a surprise visit to the Majorca mansion, where she revealed that the couple, along with Angel and Ty, were at risk after receiving the fewest public votes.
In a shock twist, the fate of the bottom two couples was decided by former contestants, who returned to the show to share their opinions. Each ex-Islander voted for the couple they deemed least compatible, with Meg and Dejon receiving the most votes due to their frequent arguments.
The decision means Meg and Dejon leave the villa immediately, while the remaining couples compete in Monday's live finale for a £50,000 prize, determined by the British public. The episode comes amid growing controversy over contestant behaviour, with 9,000 Ofcom complaints and an investigation launched by the TV watchdog.
Women's Aid criticised the show for normalising sexism and misogyny, while insiders reveal ITV may axe the winter series and All Stars due to 'over saturation' and falling viewership. The current series, however, has seen a ratings boost, averaging 2.4 million viewers per episode.
