EIGHTH RECOUPLING

Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish

Liberty and Jake once again coupled up during the eighth recoupling, however, after a few weeks of troubles, the pair decided to call of their romance just days ahead of the final.

Now that they are over the Casa Amor drama, Millie and Liam seem happier than ever, with Liam admitting he wants to make Millie his official girlfriend.

Chloe Burrows and Toby Aromolaran

Despite interest from new boy Aaron, Chloe admitted she's very happy with Toby, who also now seems settled with his girl. Could these two go all the way to the final?

Faye Winter and Teddy Soares

After one of the most dramatic week's in Love Island history, Faye and Teddy went full circle and patched things up after that explosive argument, leading to Faye picking Teddy once again.

The pair then made things official during their final date.

Kaz Kamwi and Tyler Cruickshank

After calling things off with Matthew and sleeping on the day beds with Tyler, Kaz chose to couple up with Tyler, admitting things are going well between the pair.

Mary Bedford and Aaron Simpson

Mary and Aaron lost their place in the villa just days ahead of the final, receiving the lowest public votes on Wednesday 18th August.

Priya Gopaldas and Brett Staniland

Despite bombshell Priya looking like she was going to couple up with Casa Amor boy Matthew, her head was turned by the last-minute arrival of PHD student Brett! During the shock recoupling, Priya chose Brett, sending Matthew home.


HOWEVER, after just days of spending time together, Priya cooled things off with Brett, with the pair later being sent home by the public.

SEVENTH RECOUPLING

Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish

It may be the seventh recoupling, but Liberty and Jake are still going strong! As the only official couple so far, could the pair go all the way and win the £50,000?

Millie Court and Liam Reardon

At one point it looked like Millie and Liam could be over forever, following the drama during Casa Amor. But after Liam's efforts to win back his girl, including a cute speech in front of the group, Millie chose to couple back up with Liam, admitting he still has some grafting to do.

Faye Winter and Teddy Soares

Viewers were over the moon to see Faye and Teddy reunited! After being tested during Casa Amor, the pair were able to put their differences aside and are now more smitten than ever.

Chloe Burrows and Toby Aromolaran

Where do we even start with these two? After dumping Chloe at the last recoupling in favour of Abi, Toby then dumped Abi and brought back Mary from Casa Amor.
