Yewande was the fifth Islander to leave the villa after Danny decided to recouple with Arabella, leaving the scientist single. She's since revealed the one mistake she made during her time on the show and reunited with Arabella on Aftersun.

After leaving the villa single – and throwing shade at Danny by telling him to "have a nice life" – Yewande went on to date Casa Amor star George Rains but later discovered he had a secret girlfriend. She and Molly-Mae also confirmed that they were not friends amid reports of a feud.

Lucie was savagely dumped from the villa on day 36 alongside George Rains, after their fellow islanders opted to save Curtis Pritchard and Amy Hart. Lucie was initially coupled up with sandwich maker Joe, before admitting her feelings for boxer Tommy.

Viewers were shocked when Lucie confessed she wouldn't give up on pursing Tommy despite him being coupled with her 'friend' Molly-Mae. Luckily she got over him pretty quickly and reunited with Joe.


Lucie then reignited her feud with Molly-Mae by claiming she had 'ditched' the rest of the Islanders. She's now dating Love Island 2020 star Luke Mabbott.

Amy didn't have the easiest of times in the villa and after leaving she confessed she went to therapy 12 times during her stint. She sparked rumours she was dating Callum Macleod but quickly shut them down.


The former air hostess has admitted following her time in the villa she'd 'get into bed at lunchtime and cry' before confessing at one point ITV 'stepped in and made me eat again'.

What's your definition of girl code? This is really difficult because the island isn't a normal place, the real world is different. I don't know how close I can get to a girl in a few weeks. If a guy likes me, I'm there for love at the end of the day, not girls.


Anna was dumped from the Island on day 45 alongside her ex Jordan Hames and other dumped couple, Harley Brash and Chris Taylor. After a blazing argument with her so -called 'boyfriend' Jordan, the couple were dumped from the villa.

Joe was whisked away by ITV bosses following his axe due to the backlash against him "gaslighting" Lucie.

After his on-off relationships with Amber and Casa Amor beauty Joanna, Michael was dumped from the Island alongside Francesca Allen. The firefighter was branded a 'snake' and 'fake' after he refused to leave with Joanna just days earlier and attempted to rekindle things with Amber. Michael was left vulnerable when Amber gave him a taste of his own medicine and instead, decided to couple up with new boy Greg.

Probably one of the biggest Love Island love rats of all time was Michael and he couldn't help himself because despite being snubbed by Amber, he was pictured snogging Joanna weeks after leaving the villa.


He was then apparently papped trying to kiss Casa Amor babe Nabila and then minutes later he was seen cosying up to Joanna again.


Michael appearred on Ex on the Beach series 11, he's part of the Dreamboys cast and briefly got together with Love Island 2018 star Ellie Brown.

After lying about his romantic feelings for air hostess Amy and shockingly having his head turned, Curtis ended up finishing Love Island with Irish beauty Maura Higgins in fourth place.

We were all shocked (still are) when Maura and Curtis coupled up in the villa. Months after coming fourth in the competition they went official with their relationship.

There was speculation that the pair 'knew each other for years' after it came to light that Maura visited the Dancing With The stars studio at the same time Curtis was a professional dancer for the show; however they both dismissed the claims.


Curtis has also said 'never say never' to a same-sex relationship, he became a receptionist on the Greatest Dancer and despite becoming an ambassador for WW he has confessed he never wants to go on a diet again. He has since split from Maura.

Molly-Mae Hague and her boyfriend Tommy Fun narrowly missed out on being crowned the winners of Love Island 2019. The couple, who have been the most secure couple of the series, lost out on the win to Amber and Greg and finished in second place. Since arriving back in the UK, the couple have remained silent on social media.

Despite being the only couple who were actually in a relationship, Molly-Mae and Tommy came second in the competition.


After leaving the villa she opened up about what really happened with Sherif in the Love Island villa, she moved in with her boxer boyfriend, returned to her Youtube channel and became the most followed Love Island contestant with over 3.5million Instagram followers.


After Lucie claimed the influencer had 'ditched' all her co-stars, Molly-Mae failed to invite Yewande or Arabella to her party.


There's been speculation that Molly-Mae has had cosmetic surgery following her stint in the reality TV show, she became an ambassador for Pretty Little Thing and was blasted for cooking a 'salmonella' meal for Tommy despite him praising her efforts.

Danny Williams and Jourdan Riane were dumped from Love Island on day 21. Fans turned on Danny after he picked Arabella over Yewande during a recoupling. He then returned from Casa Amor with newbie Jourdan. The pair are now in an official relationship.

Remember when Danny was a villain in the villa? Well after leaving the show he defended Michael's terrible behaviour towards Amber, moved in with Jourdan despite there being reports that he 'still fancied' 'upgraded' Arabella.


Unfortunately it wasn't to last a weeks after moving in with Jourdan their relationship ended after he was seen partying with random girls – however he denied cheating.

We're still not sure why Tom was so surprised when the girls voted for him to leave over Curtis and Danny. He became the seventh contestant to leave the show as he rowed with Maura after he was caught saying "It will be interesting to find out if she is all mouth".

Ahh Tom, we'll never forgot his shady and yet bizarre behaviour towards Maura. Since leaving the show he has returned to modelling and often posts sponsored content on Instagram.

Jordan was dumped from Love Island on day 45 alongside his ex Anna and other dumped couple, Harley Brash and Chris Taylor. Jordan was slated after he asked Anna to be his official girlfriend and then just days later, confessed his head had been turned by Ovie's girl, India.

We thought Danny and Michael were savage but they had to make room for Jordan. After leaving the villa he said he wasn't 'mad' at Anna – we're not sure why he would be, tbh.


Months later, he was pictured kissing Ferne McCann at an event but weeks later the First Time Mum star confessed it wasn't meant to be. He now lives with Michael, Danny and Chris.

She was only on the show for a few days (bless!) and despite being the sixth star to leave the villa she certainly made her mark after recoupling with Danny and causing tension between him and Michael.

After leaving the villa Arabella revealed why she snogged Danny hours after Yewande left and what really happened with ex-boyfriend Charlie Frederick.


Weeks later she was spotted holding hands with Love Island 2018 star Wes Nelson and they moved in together. After she was snubbed from Molly-Mae's Pretty Little Thing launch she confessed she "would have liked to be there". Awks. Fast forward to 2020 and Arabella and Wes have split.

Joanna was sent home following an explosive dumping that left her and Michael in the bottom two alongside Anna and Jordan. As only one Islander had to leave, fellow contestants picked Joanna and strangely, Michael didn't choose to leave with her. Joanna branded him a 'snake' before her shock exit.

Given that she was coupled up with Danny, Jourdan was dumped with her new beau Danny Williams. Danny had caused conflict in the villa as he flirted between Yewande and Arabella before moving to Jourdan.

Sadly, Stevie was another Casa Amor reject after Lucie decided she'd prefer to hook up with new boy George Rains, leaving Stevie single, and heading back home.

After arriving and visiting Casa Amor, a massive group of newbies (including Dan) left the show, with many of them having seen little or no screen time.

After coming across a total gentleman and the smoothest guy around, Ovie and India finished Love Island in third place and have since revealed they are dating exclusively.

Ovie is still the fittest main to grace reality TV and we're fuming that we haven't bumped into him and he's automatically fallen in love with us already. Months after coming third in the competition, he split from India but the pair appear to be on good terms because they've not unfollowed each other on Instagram.


Career wise, Ovie landed a gig on This Morning, he became an ambassador for ASOS (the most boujee deal for a Love Island star) and he joined the Sky Sports team.

Age: 28
From: Reading

India won Ovie over almost straight away, after she arrived as a bombshell. The glamorous model fell for the handsome basketball hunk and the couple finished Love Island in third place.

Greg won Love Island 2019 with his new Islander beau Amber Gill and they left the villa as winners on day 49.

We LOVED Greg during his time in the villa; he seemed to be one of the only guys with sense (remember he questioned why Curtis gave Jordan terrible advice?). Unfortunately, that all changed when he dumped our babe Amber over text – rude.


Despite doing a few Instagram ads he has pretty much shunned the fame side of things while he continues to play rugby and become a lawyer.
