Love Island’s Nathan Massey professes his true feelings for Cara De La Hoyde… as she makes plans to start a family with her beau
Cara also called Nathan her 'soul mate'
LOVE Island's Nathan Massey has finally opened up and admitted his love for girlfriend Cara De La Hoyde during tonight's final episode.
To celebrate their time in the villa, the couples attended a Summer Ball in the garden.
While the girls went shopping for dresses, the guys were given some much-needed dance lessons - particularly Adam Maxwell, who Nathan said had less rhythm than a "fridge freezer".
Afterwards, each Islander sat down to write their declarations of love, which Cara found particularly difficult.
She said: “It’s hard, because me and Nathan are never soppy. Is this the one time that he’s actually going to be soppy?”
Once all the boys were looking dapper in their tailored suits, each of the girls made a grand entrance in their stunning dresses.
After Katie and Adam and Scott and Kady made their feelings known on the romantic platform surrounded by flowers, the villa's longest surviving couple Cara and Nathan stood.

Cara went first: "Nathan the carpenter. I want to start by thanking you for being here.
"I never thought coming in here I’d meet someone as special as you, let alone walk in and find my soul mate on the first day. I’ve opened up to you about things that I never have before.
"I know some people think you don’t have that side, but you do – and that’s my Nathan. I wanna look back on this in 30 years time and show our grandchildren how we met and that we used to be banging.
"We’ve got this far, let’s keep going on this crazy adventure, still making memories and let’s one day make some babies."
Nathan responded by reading her a poem he'd written about her.
He said: “The moment I met you, I gazed into those big green eyes,
"And you instantly stepped forward, and I didn’t get pied.
"You have the best eyes, nice boobs and a never-ending arse,
"To go the full way with you and win, now that would be class.
"Cara, you’re kind, genuine, and funnier than most,
"And I can’t wait to get out, meet nanny Linda and have one of her roasts.
"We always talk about the word love and we miss out the ‘ve’,
"Now Cara, I’ve fallen in love with you, will you fall in love with me?"
Following his admission that he was in love with her, he added: "I said the love word. I don’t throw it around. I’m a man that don’t show his emotions but the journey me and Cara have been on, means a lot to me. I love Cara, and I mean it.”
The pair are tipped to take Love Island crown tonight as bookies tip them 1/5 to win.
