It’s been a whirlwind few weeks – but it definitely has been unforgettable.

Love Island is nearly over – and it won’t be long until one couple is crowned the winner. We’ve had an exciting and emotional season so far, with tears, breakups, and drama.

Let’s delve into the latest episodes, where the final approaches. These include heartfelt moments, another dumping, as well as final dates.

The villa has been anything but calm as everyone scrambles for love – and that all-important £50,000 prize. Let’s dive in.

Love Island UK Season 12 Conor and Megan
We found out who our Love Island Series 12 winners are!

Episode 53

We started this episode with an incredible cover of ‘Start of Something New’ by Conor and Megan for the talent show.

Then Jamie gave an amazing speech about his Love Island experience, and Harry’s clown act was absolutely hilarious. After all the performances, Helena was voted the winner of the talent show. Unfortunately, it was time to say goodbye to Helena and Blu.

Next came the baby challenge – some handled it better than others. While it brought some couples closer, it caused tension for others. Jamie and Yasmin realised they’re not as compatible as they thought, as they have different views about having children.

Meanwhile, Angel and Ty have now gone exclusive. At the end of the night, the islanders played the Getting to Know Me challenge. The joint winners of the Knowing Me, Knowing You challenge were Meg and Dejon, and Shakira and Harry – although it did cause a bit of upset again.

Episode 54

Not much really happened on these sides apart from Megan throwing a strop after Dejon’s actions in the Knowing Me, Knowing You challenge. At least they made up in the end.

They all shared a heart-to-heart moment, which was extremely cute.

Unfortunately, there was another dramatic dumping – and it was Conor and Megan who left the villa this time. They both seemed very genuine about each other, and with them both living in Ireland, I don’t see how it wouldn’t work.

Also, there was a jaw-dropping preview at the end, which showed some familiar faces returning.

Episode 56

It’s an iconic episode, starting off with some good news – Toni and Cach are now exclusive.

Maya Jama also entered the villa, bringing along all the contestants who had been dumped earlier in the season.

The couples then had to choose who they could potentially see working on the outside – which meant Meg and Dejon, unfortunately, had to bite the dust.

Episode 57

It’s the anticipated live final of Love Island 2025. Maya Jama hosts as the Islanders look back on the journeys over the last few weeks.

Jama dishes the dirt on the Islanders who have left the villa and interviews our four finalists: Ty and Angel, Yasmin and Jamie, Shakira and Harry, and Toni and Cach.

We finally have the results. Fourth place, Angel and Ty, third, Yasmin and Jamie, second place, Shakira and Harry, and first place and the winners of the series, Toni and Cach!
