Maura received a text saying: “Islanders. Tonight, there will be a recoupling. The boys will choose, and the girl not picked to be in a couple will be dumped from the Island. #ByeFelicia #GirlCrushed”
And Danny Williams, who is in a love triangle with Yewande Biala and Arabella Chi, had all the power.
He said in the Beach Hut: “I’ve got to make a decision and I’m confused. I’m not fully sure what I need to do. Someone has to leave tonight. At the very least I have to disappoint one girl because they both want me to couple up with them.”

The then told Michael: “If I pick Yewande and it goes back to how it is then I’ve only got myself to blame. I could be missing out something quite special with Arabella.”
Danny went last during the recoupling, and chose Arabella over Yewande - meaning that she was sent home from the villa.
Speaking in her official exit interview, Yewande said of her time in the villa: It was a rollercoaster of emotions, up and down. I learnt so much about myself. I made amazing friends and I wouldn’t change anything. The biggest thing I learnt about myself was that I can open up romantically and I can show a little bit of affection, which is something I struggled with in the past.
The new Love Island couples are as follows:
Tommy and Molly-Mae
Curtis and Amy
Michael and Amber
Tom and Maura
Jordan and Anna
Anton and Lucie
Danny and Arabella
