THERE is a long, hot summer ahead as Love Islanders sizzle in the Spanish sun for another four weeks – but I reckon we may already know our winner.
In a shock twist, the strongest couple of the series split last night, leaving the competition wide open.
Tommy was left stunned as Megan cracked on with Conor – sharing a steamy snog on the terrace.
While some believe Tommy could quit over what’s happened, I believe he may already have secured the £50,000 prize.
That’s because while Megan attempted to “gaslight” Tommy into believing he was in the wrong, the 22-year-old landscape gardener stayed cool, calm and collected.
Backing himself, Tommy explained why Megan was scapegoating in order to feel better about kissing Conor.
His decency and self-respect was admirable. Despite being one of the villa’s youngest stars, Tommy proved his maturity goes way beyond his years.
Former winners Amber Gill and Mimii Ngulube were both stand-out stars of their series and won despite a short relationship with their partners Greg O’Shea and Josh Oyinsan, respectively.
It just shows the power fans hold to carry an Islander through to the final, even if their partner isn’t as popular.
As we know, the majority of winners are couples who paired up in the first week of Love Island so I was keeping a close eye on Tommy and Megan.
The Maura Higgins lookalike was in the running to be one of my favourite girls in the villa thanks to her great Irish craic. However, it now appears Megan has inadvertently caused her own downfall.
Trying to blame Tommy for her clearly wanting to pursue the sexual chemistry she has with Conor is immature and petty.
Her temper and cattiness has also emerged in recent episodes – qualities that are in stark contrast to Tommy’s character.
She’s gone from potentially being in a winning couple to ending up in the Hideaway with Conor who, although is good looking, appears to have very limited chat.
I fear that Megan will soon realise it’s just sexual chemistry that she has with Conor and will bound to have regrets about jumping ship.
Love Island fans have the memory of an elephant and there won’t be any forgiving or forgetting the way she’s treated Tommy.
