Love Island stars declare their affection as series comes to a close

The Love Island finalists will share declarations of affection as the series comes to a conclusion.

In scenes that will air during the final episode on Monday night, Molly Marsh and Zachariah Noble, Jess Harding and Sammy Root, Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowacki and Tyrique Hyde and Ella Thomas will battle it out to be crowned the winners and take home the £50,000 prize.

The final four couples will attend the Love Island ball, where they will share how they feel about their romantic partners.

Ella tells Tyrique: “From the boy I met on day one to the man you are today, I’ve seen you change and grow so much – just for me.”

Tyrique tells Ella: “You’ve shown me it’s cool to open up about my emotions and it’s cool to be vulnerable. And being in love is the best feeling ever.”

Next to make their declarations is Jess and Sammy, with Jess saying: “Knowing how much it takes for you to get strong feelings screams to me how serious and genuine our connection is.”

Sammy replies: “It took some time at the beginning of my journey to realise what I was risking but when I saw you walking towards the fire pit on your own after Casa, I instantly knew that you were all that I wanted, my wandering eye turned into my eye for Jess.”

Also sharing their feelings are Molly and Zach, with Molly saying: “I’m really looking forward to life outside the villa together and calling you mine.

“We are a team, Zach, and please don’t ever forget I love you.”

He tells hers: “I’m now at a point where I find myself daydreaming about the things and adventures I want to do with you, spoiling you, protecting you and loving you.”

The final pair to speak are Whitney and Lochan, who are the bookies’ favourites to win the show.

Whitney says: “You ask me if I am happy everyday. You kiss my forehead when you think I’m asleep and you tell me I look beautiful every chance you get.

“You’re exactly what I’ve been looking for.”

Lochan replies: “I want to continue making you happy, growing together, laughing together which is why I can confidently say that I don’t see a future with anyone else on the outside and I can’t wait for our next chapter.”

The Love Island 2023 summer final airs on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm on July 31.
