Dumped Love Islander revealed after shock twist sends second villa girl packing
LOVE Island fans were left completely stunned as one girl was savagely dumped in a brutal twist. Maya Jama previously revealed that Boris Vidovic and Emma Munro would be leaving the villa. 7 7 However, another two of the contestants were at risk of being dumped from the long-running ITV2 dating competition. Yasmin Pettet, Ty Isherwood, Toni Laites and Cach Mercer were forced to make a big decision as Billykiss and Angel were up for the chop. This was as Yasmin and Toni were voted the top favourite girls, and Cach and Ty the top boys by a public vote.

She remarked: "I'm grateful for everything. Everything happened the way it was supposed to happen. And I'm grateful for you." She later described that Cach was her "best friend in here," just as she exited the compound. But as they relaxed and started to enjoy themselves, Maya Jama entered the villa with some devastating news for the islanders. Viewers watched as - which meant a pair would be dumped immediately.

When Is the 'Love Island UK' 2025 Final? Everything You Need to Know
If Love Island USA was simply not enough for you, there's some good news. Love Island UK is still actively airing, and it's all heating up in that villa. Casa Amor has come and gone, leading to a many new couples (10 to be precise), movie night has turned things upside down (as per usual), and there's been so many recouplings, triangles and head turns, we've lost count. All of this has had us thinking that it must soon be time for the final when one couple will be crowned this year's winners and take home a £50,000 cash prize. So, when exactly is the Love Island 2025 final? Here's everything you need to know. It's looking like the Love Island UK 2025 final will take place on Monday, August 4 in the UK. As of yet there's been no official word from ITV about when the final will take place, but based on previous years we can make an educated guess. Since 2017, most of the series have lasted eight weeks. As season 12 kicked off on Monday, June 9, that would take us right up to Monday, August 4—that's if they don't surprise us and add on another week or two! After all, it's the 10th anniversary so you never know... We'll update you right here once we have a confirmed date. This is the real question. Typically, Love Island UK episodes hit Hulu on a three day delay. So if an episode airs on Monday in the UK, it usually hits Hulu on Thursday. So if the predictions are right and the final airs on August 4 in the UK, it'll air on August 7, Thursday, in the US. SUBSCRIBE TO HULU As with previous years, the final will be broadcast ~live~ in the UK ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm. The final normally features the remaining four couples competing for the winning title as well as the £50,000 prize money. Taking place in the Mallorcan villa, Maya Jama hosts the evening and the public votes for their top couples. Unfortunately, because the US audience will watch the finale on a delay, they won't be able to vote for the winning couple. I guess we'll have to leave it to the Brits!

Who is back on Love Island tonight? All about the shock comeback as Megan and Blu return to the villa
JUST like all good exes, they always come crawling back, as two dumped islanders are about to cause some chaos in the villa. In yet another shock twist in this years mouthwateringly dramatic Love Island, viewers were left stunned when two old islanders appeared in Tuesday night's teaser. 4 Who is back on Love Island tonight? Irish stunner Megan and Spanish lad Blu are the returning islanders set to have a second chance at love. The Sun understands that the two troublemakers entered the villa on Tuesday night and will feature on our screens on Wednesday night. Blu was the second islander to be eliminated from Love Island, while Megan was dramatically dumped shortly after. But after being dumped from the island before the summer of love had even fully begun, the pair (and producers) believed they had unfinished business. And yet the villa obviously had to make room for the two returners. And so the savage twist came only moments after Maya Jama revealed that Boris and Emma would be leaving the villa. 4 After receiving the least votes from the public to save their favourite islanders, the newly formed couple were sent packing. But they will not be the only islanders who will have their summer in Mallorca ended prematurely, as the two remaining bottom three couples have been put forward for another public vote to save their favourite contestants. Their fellow islanders will then have to choose who will leave the island out of the bottom two. The return of Blu and Megan promotes a tragic sense of irony, after Blu was booted after having a heated argument with former islander Shea about who should leave. Megan was also dumped from the island after being voted out by the public, after they turned on her. Love Island star rushed to hospital with 'worst pain in her entire life' On returning, Blu said: "There's a bit of open space now and people know the game a little bit more, so hopefully the couple of girls I've got my eyes on are willing to explore. "I told you all from the get go I'm not leaving and I'm not f***ing leaving!" Who is Blu? 4 Blu Chegini is a construction manager based in London and was one of the original cast members on this year's Love Island. He graduated from Oxford Brookes University in 2023 with a Bsc Hons in construction project management. Before joining Love Island, he worked in London, where he managed construction projects. Never one to hold back, the cheeky singleton revealed his mum runs a well-known adult store in Spain, and reckoned his upbringing prepared him for whatever Love Island might throw his way, though his time in the villa was shortlived. Who is Megan Megan Forte Clarke is an up-and-coming actress and social media personality from Dublin, Ireland. She is also one of the original islanders. 4 While her acting roles have been limited, she did not stay away from the drama while she was in the villa. She had the public turn on her after she dumped Tommy for Conor in her final few days on the show. With this shock twist, maybe she will be getting the encore the Irish bombshell deserves. She's also pals with Love Island legend Harriett Blackmore, who rose to fame on the show in 2024, before starring in All Stars at the beginning of 2025 (no wonder Megan fancied a return).

The 2024 season started on June 3 and ran until July 29, lasting for eight weeks in total - and the same was the case for the year before.
