Love Island UK 2025 delivered a whirlwind of romance, drama and unforgettable twists as a fresh batch of singles entered the villa in search of love. From steamy bombshell arrivals and shock recouplings to explosive challenges and tense family visits, the season kept viewers glued to their screens. Fan-favourite islanders navigated loyalty tests, secret sleepovers and fiery confrontations, while a late-season twist brought back dumped contestants to stir the pot ahead of the finale.

We’ve been absolutely hooked this season and have truly fallen back in love with the show. From jaw-dropping recouplings to shock dumpings, this has been the most dramatic, turbulent, and genuinely heartbreaking season in Love Island history. With the final week upon us, we had to throw in our two pence and share our predictions for who might just take the crown.

In our opinion, there are only two potential winners... Toni & Cach and Yas & Jamie have been consistent fan favourites. Their connections have felt authentic, they’ve weathered the storms, and they’ve kept us rooting for them. Shakira & Harry remain a wildcard. Shakira is iconic in the public’s eyes, but let’s be honest Harry will never win over the viewers. Meanwhile, Megan & Conor have flown under the radar but stayed quietly solid. If they make it to the final, don’t be surprised if they surge at the last moment.

If we had to call it now, here’s how we think the finale could go:

  1. Toni & Cach
  2. Yas & Jamie
  3. Megan & Conor
  4. Shakira & Harry (purely for Shakira)

Will love win, or will we be proven completely wrong? We’ll find out very soon...
