During their exit interview, Matilda said she had her "eyes on the prize" when she entered the villa which was Sean.

They were a rare Casa Amor couple who seems to have stood the test of time.

Ayo originally had a connection with Mimii but his head was turned while she left the villa.

What were the highlights of the Love Island 2024 final?

The Love Island 2024 final took us down memory lane and revisited each couple's love story.

The last episode saw each couple get dressed up in the villa and write declarations of love for one another.

You're attentive, kind, gentle and loving. Thank you for showing me the qualities that I thought were unrealistic in this day and age.

Mimii Ngulube

Mimii told Josh: "You're attentive, kind, gentle and loving. Thank you for showing me the qualities that I thought were unrealistic in this day and age."

While Josh wrote his partner a poem to show how much he cared after Mimii said no one had done that for her before.

Meanwhile, Ciaran and Nicole's declarations caused tears throughout the cast, with Jessica saying she couldn't hide her emotions.

Nicole reminisced on the early days of the series when she and Ciaran first crossed paths.

She said: "It all started the day you walked through that door with the biggest, cheekiest smile on your face.

"As soon as I came up to you the words that left your mouth was 'Alright love, I’m Ciaran, nice to meet you' and I replied 'Are you Welsh?' I instantly felt the butterflies."

Love Island series 11 - feuds in the villa

No edition of Love Island is complete without its fair share of drama - and series 11 is no different. Here's a look at some of the most fiery feuds so far.

  • Joey Essex & Samantha Kenny: Samantha entered the villa on Day 1 and was initially coupled with Sam Taylor. However, Samantha was 'stolen' by Joey, the first bombshell of series 11. She was 'dumped' on Day 16 - with the make-up artist saying she had been brutally snubbed by Joey in the villa - although it never made it to air.
  • Matilda Draper & Jess White: While Matilda arrived as a bombshell on Day 12, Jess was part of the original line-up. The two clashed in Casa Amor, over Jess' frustration that Matilda was talking to new hunk Hugo Godfroy - who Jess previously snogged.
  • Harriet Blackmore & Jess White: The two women were caught up in a love triangle for much of their time on the programme. The pair were fighting over Ronnie Vint, 27, from Greenwich, who wound up being dumped alongside Harriett.
