Love Island fans were left scratching their heads after one contestant begged ITV bosses to go on ‘cursed’ final date.
During Thursday’s visit (July 27) to the Majorcan mansion, Ella Barnes and her Mitchel Taylor were the first couple to go on their final date as the series final grows closer.
The happy couple were treated to a romantic meal in front of a lagoon and a large waterfall as a cello player performed for them.

After the pair enjoyed a meal together, Mitch decided to take their relationship to the next step when he asked the professional dancer if they would like to be exclusive.
While the loved-up couple enjoyed their meal together, the other Islanders couldn’t help but share their dream date with each other in the bedroom.
But viewers were forced to do a double take when Ella Thomas confessed her dream date would be to go on a yacht with her partner Tyrique Hyde.
She admitted: “I hope my date’s on a yacht, I’m not asking for too much” as Zach agreed.
It was at this point that fans flooded to Twitter to share their concerns for the couple who have been going strong since day one.
One user penned: “Did Ella wish for her date with Tyrique to be on a yacht? When we know any couple whose final fate on a oat is cursed lol #loveisland.”
Another agreed: “‘I hope my date’s on a yacht’ Doesn’t Ella know about the Love Island boat couple curse lmao #loveisland.”
A third echoed: “Ella noo the yacht date is cursed [cry-laughing emoji] #LoveIsland.”
Over the past few years, viewers have become convinced that dates on a boat are cursed after watching a long line of couples fall to the wayside in the past.
So far, fans have watched Liberty Poole and Jack Cornish break up hours after going on a yacht date in 2021.
The couple followed in the footsteps of doomed duo Amber Gill and Greg O’Shea in 2019 who broke up just a few weeks after they won the show.
